catch four good group locker season statement themselves tough toward
This group, to have accomplished what they've done and to catch themselves in mid-season and get those four really tough (victories) toward the end of the year, I think they made a statement that it has been a pretty good season for such a young group. That's a tough group in (that locker room).

At the end there, if we score on the three or four possessions when we had a shot, we could have got it to three or four points ... who knows?
