Like I've said before, teams are coming after us. That's why we've been in so many of these close games. Every team that plays us comes with their best.
It was tough coming down those steps for the last time.
It was a great game. A good bounce-back game for us after losing to Canada yesterday. It showed how much pride we have in USA Basketball. After losing yesterday's game, coming out and being able to play hard today against Puerto Rico, that says a lot.
It's always big when you beat the No. 1 team. It was awesome coming away with the win and seeing the crowd rush the floor.
It was fun for us. For Louisville to be hitting threes like that, it wasn't that fun. For us to be hitting it, it felt pretty good. Coming down on the other end and giving it up was kind of a bad feeling right there.

We're never worried about off nights because we've got guys who can fill it up.
We're trying not to get caught up in the rivalry.
We just weren't being as aggressive on defense and we normally are. We needed to turn it up in the second half.
With all the media attention and all that's going on, I don't want all the focus to be on me. I just want to say my eye's fine, there's nothing wrong with it, so please no more questions about it. I just want to focus on basketball.
We just feed off each other. Sometimes Randy gets it going and everyone on the team knows that and we'll try to find him. Sometimes Mike (Nardi) gets it going and we find him. Sometimes I get it going and everyone finds me.
We knew about Monmouth, we knew they were a very good team. We definitely didn't underestimate them.
We hit a lot of shots early and once you hit shots early, you get a lot of confidence as a team.
Every shot was contested, you know? There were very few open looks. Florida did a great job of contesting our shots and made sure that we took tough shots.
