clicking error everybody outside rest room throughout
Outside of these two guys, and they have been very good, we've had a lot of inconsistency throughout the rest of the roster. We've just got to get everybody clicking because there's no room for error for us.
best demands good great guys job ricky start statements
I thought Ricky did the best job at halftime. He made a great statement, and that's what you need. Ricky's an upperclassman and when those guys start making statements and demands than we can become a good team.
He's also the most competitive person I've ever known.
bit
We may have been a little tired. A little bit too much ACC for us right now. We need to see if we can regroup.
far maybe worn
Maybe there's been a little too much ACC for us, as far as where we are right now. We're a little worn out.
difficult drawing duke experience final four handle history playing rest team year
We have a young team this year and we're playing a difficult schedule. So I would say that I'm probably drawing from it even now, the things you have to do with a young team and how you have to handle them. That was an experience with that very young Duke team. As seniors, they made that first Final Four and the rest is history from there.
against drives happen team
When things weren't flowing, they penetrated and made things happen which you have to do against a zone. We are not a team that drives well so we don't do it that often.
beat display free game nine possession shooting throw
What a display of free throw shooting by them. It's a possession by possession game and we get beat by nine at the free throw line.
hitting keeps shot team
You feel like you're with him, you feel like you're challenging the shot and he just keeps hitting them and hitting them. I know we're not the only team he has made feel that way.
hard hit hitting keeps lots shot stay worked
You feel like you're there with him, you keep challenging his shot and he just keeps hitting and hitting and hitting. We worked hard to stay with him in our defense, but he hit lots of shots.
job kings loose trying
We're the kings of not getting loose balls. We've been trying to get them to be more aggressive. I thought we did a better job of that tonight.
ball biggest played valuing
Turnovers were the biggest disappointment. A lot of turnovers that we just haven't done in a lot of games. We've played 14 games. We should be valuing the ball a little better.
bit played teams
We've played two ACC teams back-to-back, and that's probably a little bit too much for us.
confidence experience games maybe played road schedule tough
We've played a tough schedule with a lot of road games and played well at times. You want your experience to take over. Maybe this will give us a little confidence going into two tough places.
