They are very well-rounded. They have a great inside game and support it with great shooters, players who can handle the ball with the mid-range game. They don't have a weakness offensively.

We've very proud and happy for both of them. You just need to feel good about the fact that they've put themselves in great position with great play. I want them to enjoy that and be proud of that.

That's always the most difficult thing, when you have a team that you don't have a place to cheat (defensively). They have a great inside game and support it with great shooters.

They led us to victory. Everybody else gave great support, did their jobs. Fatigue wasn't a factor at all.

Things always feel good when you hit shots.

Everybody, in the end, plays the same games. So really, until it's over, there's no comparing where people are at. We have kind of done well just playing from behind. So, I think we'll just keep thinking of it in those terms.
chip enthusiasm love thinking
There's no chip on our shoulder. We really love to play. We try to keep thinking in these terms: Play for each other. Play because you love it. When you play, show the enthusiasm you have for the game.
