cracked great happened spirits wrong
JR is in great spirits it's just something that we're just going to have to let heal. It happened where he just planted the wrong way and it just cracked on him.
defend eventually hit
We didn't defend today. But you can't put everything on your defense. You have to eventually hit shots.
last moments situations trust
When we get to those last moments we have to trust each other out there. I think sometimes we get into situations where we don't trust each other on what can be accomplished.
finals forgotten ncaa round team
What has been forgotten is we did get to the finals of the NIT and I thought that was better than (losing) in the NCAA in the first round the way that team was.

We were beaten by a better team today.

We played a game down three starters and your sixth man. It's hard to play like that.

We played a bad game (against Providence) but do you know with four minutes to go we're down seven and they're shooting 60 percent and we're shooting in the 30s?
