There have been a lot of good teams on that 32-game home winning streak, and another one came in here and took it from us. It is the only way it should end, it shouldn't end with us losing by 15 or us losing to a bad team.
It's weird times. It's unfortunate, but we're just happy they took the right steps to make sure everybody was safe and allowed us to get out here and play basketball.

Any time you lose three in row it gets hard to put the game away, so I took it myself to put it away.
We just totally turned the page on that Thursday game. It was important not to come in here and worry about making shots, and we did a good job of that.
We're going to be a threat, inside and out.
I've seen where you can score 35 in two games in a row, and once you lose, you can't get it.

Brockman has passed our expectations. He can defend and score. He's stepped in there and done the job.
