Some of your toughest games come in the Sweet 16 and Elite Eight. Usually, this is where we feel national championships are won.

That was probably my first legitimate tough stretch. I always found a way to bounce back.
allowed bodies compared contract floating houses mean people situation tough week
Compared to this, things like my new contract don't mean that much, ... There are bodies floating in the water. A lot of houses have been destroyed. When all of this is over in another week or so and people are allowed to go back home, what will they go back to? It's a tough situation to handle.

It's a tough job, but over the last two years I've learned how to do it. It's fun.

chance explain game hard offense playoff problem stop team trying urgency win
We had a chance to win but it was like the whole game, we just couldn't stop them. Our offense wasn't the problem tonight. It was our defense. It's hard to explain when every game is so important, especially with a team we're trying to chase. Not to have that sense of urgency like it's a playoff game, is really a shame.

We understand that we can't be happy with one or two wins. I think that was one of our problems last year.

This was a big test for us. Everyone thinks you're going to win, and you can easily get caught up into that and play a loose game. It was important for us to come out focused.
gain game games opportunity playoff tomorrow treat twice
Every game is important for us. We have a big one tomorrow (against Boston) and we have the opportunity to play Philadelphia twice and gain two games on them. They're all big from here. We've got to treat each game as if its a playoff game.
answers causes consistent definitely figure great mediocre next night takes team terrible trying watched whatever
We watched a lot of film, just trying to get answers and trying to figure out what causes us to play that way. We were definitely embarrassed by a mediocre team. We don't want to be a team that's great one night and terrible the next night. We have to do whatever it takes to be a consistent team.
bunch care everybody everywhere home moms treated
Everywhere you went was home there, ... It was a real close-knit area. Everybody treated you with a lot of respect. If anything happened, there were a bunch of moms to take care of you.
