feeling iowa
It's been intense. We didn't like the feeling of the Iowa game.
gets ready roll staying tournament winning
It's about getting on a roll and staying on a roll. Winning the (conference) tournament gets us another ring. If nothing else, it gets us ready for the NCAA.
anywhere bellies fire regular season seed slip ten
We thought we could be anywhere from a No. 2 seed to a No. 4. It's not a diss. It's the way things have gone. But we have fire in our bellies for all we did let slip away in the regular season and in the Big Ten Tournament.
bad crowd heads shot shut
We shot some bad shots. We let the crowd get into it, and they got into our heads a bit. We just shut down. For us to do that, that's not acceptable.
locker prayed
We prayed for them in the locker room.
bounce guess home
We've bounced back pretty strong. And now, I guess if we don't bounce back we can bounce on home. It's one-and-done from now on.
hardest played
This is the hardest we've probably played in a while.
beginning hardest peak played reaching start
This is the hardest we've played in a while, with being cohesive at the same time. It's better now to start peaking than reaching that peak at the beginning of the season.
evaluate gave great harder loss motivation penn playing
The way we were playing and the loss (to Penn State) gave us great motivation to play harder and to evaluate ourselves. We weren't doing it right.
amount basketball best definitely feed great player says
Dee's a prime-time player. I'm biased, but he's probably the best basketball player in the country. He has a great amount of energy, and everything he says to you is real. He's not going to sugarcoat anything. We definitely feed off of that.
hits
Dee's a big-time player. He hits big-time shots.
games hit might player ups
Dee's a big-time player and hit some big-time shots. As someone who's been through the rigors and the ups and downs, we look for him to do that. Without him, some of these games might have been a little different.
attention coach guys paid statement thinks
I think a lot of guys really paid attention to that statement because we thought we were doing well. Obviously, coach thinks we need to do a little more.
game though totally
I think it's going to be a big game for revenge, even though it shouldn't be. It will be big, I guess. . . . They have a totally new team, and we have a totally new team.
