We didn't play as well as we wanted in the first half, but in the second we came out with the intensity we needed. We play against teams that give us their best shot. . . . It's all how you rebound from that.
I didn't make shots. I was thinking too much. I'm going to continue to fire and do my job as far as being a point guard. We came out with a win so I'm happy.
I think they came out, made some shots and were full of energy, enthusiasm and that's what you need to come on the road and win. Those guys were definitely special tonight.
We just didn't finish the job. They came out and played the good zone and it really affected us tonight.
We came out and played well in the first half. We just didn't finish them off in the second half.
The second half we came out with more intensity.
Doyle was talking a lot. He's a good dude, but he's out there talking. He came out and addressed me. . . . It's all fun. I love it when guys come out and trash-talk and have fun with the game.
It was a tremendous boost for us going into the half. It was huge for us. We were in the locker room pumped out, and we came out with the same energy.
They came out and did a good job. Teams come out and give us their best shot. They play hard against us.
Teams play better without their best player because others have the opportunity to step up and make big plays. They came out trash-talking and playing with confidence.
When you get opportunities, you have to step up and take them. We need production from our bench.
Every team is going to play hard. The intensity level is so high I can't explain it.
Every game's a must-win game. It's going to be a good game. Two successful programs. Two great coaches. It's going to be fun.
Until I quit writing and I don't know when that will be, I will always be reading something that has to do with what I'm working on.
