against finding great job players teammates
My teammates did a great job finding me. They were just finding me and I was converting. I should have made some more. It's nothing against (Providence), it's just that we have great players to play with.
biggest continue felt free game practice since team throws weakness
I felt confident. Ever since the Marquette game, every day I've been working on my free throws before and after practice with the coaches. Apparently, I just need to continue working on it. It's probably the biggest weakness in my game right now. I let my team down.
good open people team
We got a lot of people out on their shooters and didn't give them many open looks. We think we're a good man-to-man team and we can be physical.
against confidence east games great ncaa playing teams tournament
We got a lot of confidence from it and it's something we're going to use in the NCAA tournament. The Big East tournament is a lot like the NCAA tournament. You're playing games back-to-back. You're playing against great teams every night.
counting knew teammates time true
True story. I knew my time was coming. I knew my teammates were going to be counting on me. I didn't want to let them down.
came country teams tough
Two tough teams went at it and they just came out on top. They're not the No. 1 team in the country for nothing.
challenge excitement great perform team test york
It's going to be a great challenge and a great test for our team. New York is where most of our team is from, and with all that excitement in the crowd, we're going to have to perform well.
achievement biggest coaches compliment gave great reason support teammates
It's a great achievement. It's a great compliment to my team. I couldn't have done it without them. The support the coaches and my teammates gave me is probably the biggest reason this happened.
coming determined final great guys hard job playing plays team
We started off real slow, and the guys did a great job of playing so hard and coming back. Our team was almost, like, determined at one point. We just didn't make the final plays to come down the stretch.
beat coming confident good ncaa teams three
We're real confident going into NCAA Tournament. We beat three real good teams coming into (Saturday).
either poor strong teammates
Yeah, either that or I have to make a better move. When my teammates did find me, I wasn't strong with the ball. I made too many poor decisions.
control definitely easy games good left teams
We definitely feel like we control our own destiny, but at the same time, we don't feel there are any easy games that we have left. We still have a lot of good teams left to play, but we definitely feel like we're good enough to get through it.
beat country team
We beat the No. 2 team in the country that got a No. 1 seed. Our expectations were higher.
against finished goes people team tough
A lot of people didn't think we'd be where we're at. A lot of people were criticizing the way we finished the season. They thought we could have come in here and been one and done against Louisville. Just goes to show how tough this team is.
