against beat conference flat order realize team tough until
That place is a tough place to play. We realize you can't come out flat against that team. We didn't really get going until the end of the game. But we know that in order to beat any team in our conference we can't come out flat.
four minutes throw towel
We weren't going to throw in the towel with four minutes left. We still wanted to play and we weren't going to go down without a fight.
brutal falling shooting shots watching
Our shots were not falling today. It was brutal shooting them, it was brutal watching them.
came five hurt lost today
We just came out flat, we've been doing it all year. Today it really hurt us. I feel like that's where we lost the game, that first five minutes.
deep definitely dig effort few games gut road wins
We got to dig down deep and gut a few of these road wins out. Those games are going to be tough, I don't think there's any one of them that we can't win. And we're definitely just going to need to give a better effort than we did tonight.
downs
This year's been rough. We've had a lot of ups, a lot of downs - probably more downs than ups.
areas conference continue near nowhere perfect team tournament work
We need to continue getting better. We're nowhere near where we want to be come conference tournament time. We still have a lot of work to do. The team isn't perfect now. We've got a lot of areas we need to work on.
continue easy goes guard guys individual letting man team
With a team that has a lot of guys who can score, it comes down to guarding your own man and not letting them get easy shots. It goes on every individual to guard their man and we still need to continue to play better team defense.
customer gets product responsibility sure time
We have a responsibility to make sure the customer gets what they need, especially with this product where time is of the essence.
available consider looking models space
We still consider this a test. We're evaluating the models and looking at the space available in the stores.
gonna team
We're not the kind of team that's gonna give up. We still wanted to play, and we weren't gonna go down without a fight.
afford halftime knew looked lose needed point shut spirited turning
We had a pretty spirited halftime, and we just looked at it as pretty much a turning point for our season. We can't afford to lose too many games, especially at home, and we just knew we needed to come out and shut them down. At halftime we ratcheted it up and got down to our defense.
games missing offensive percent rebounds shooting unless win
You're not going to win too many games shooting under 30 percent unless something else is working for you. In part we got a lot of offensive rebounds because we were missing so many shots, but if they were able to get those rebounds, it probably would've been a lopsided loss.
