They shot the ball really well, especially in the first half. They just shot it well from the three; they also penetrated and pitched the ball well. They made good plays. They just executed better than we did.
I think we were distracted with Senior Night in the first half. At halftime we refocused and put our energy in defense and rebounding. And our guys responded to play the way they can.
Having the stature that he has, you get a lot of people talking at him, but he doesn't react. Sooner or later, you got to get on the grass with him, and then he'll have you.
He's outstanding. I really love watching him play, except when it's against us.
We'd like to see Leland Smith continue to get some points in the paint. Joe Leaming also needs to shoot the ball well from the outside.
We worked on that for days. At the half we talked about spreading it out a little bit, to give our guards a little more room and they were able to locate the open man.
We got off to a great start in the first half. We shot the ball well and rebounded well and only gave up 30 points through the first three quarters.
He's a pretty solid player. He's a 6-3 guard/forward who can score from the inside and play the point. We're going to try and interrupt his game.
He was unbelievable. We couldn't have stopped him with 16 tanks.
What we really focused on was trying to defend today. They defend well. We were trying to push the ball and keep their score down and we did a good job of doing that. We didn't shoot well, but defensively we did a great job, boxed out and kept their men in front of us.
