break calm came found needed played press
We needed to calm down and break their press. We came out, found the way through the press and also played a lot better on defense.
bright games increases last nice performance pressure side taken
This would have been a nice win. It would have taken some pressure off us. Now it only increases the pressure. It was a better performance than we had the last two games and that's the bright side of it. But it's got to be 32 minutes, not 30.
few game good hard mistakes next plays ready tonight win
(Westbrook) plays hard and they don't quit. This is the kind of game where you get in and you think you're just going to win it and then you make a few mistakes and you're not going to have a good game. We wanted to show tonight that we can play and to get ready for the next game.
basically five hope kids playing room suck time tired
I just hope we haven't peaked. I still see room for improvement. We've been playing basically five kids and they could get tired this time of the year. But they just have to suck it up and get through it.
beat game good last sure year
They beat us at our place last year and we beat them at theirs. I'm sure it will be another good game when we see them at their place.
game matt pressure quickness stellar stepped takes three
They just stepped up big time. Matt had a stellar game tonight. He used his quickness and he rebounded big for us. Duncan had a big game too. That takes so much pressure off the other three guys.
best game
It was our best game of the year.
games since team won
It's been a while since a team has won it back-to-back. We've got two games to go to do it. We'll give it a shot.
adjust easy inside took
They didn't make it easy for us inside and that's our game. They took that away and we didn't adjust to it.
calls inside instead looking physical played playing
(North Branford) played well. They're physical inside and we were looking for calls that we weren't going to get instead of just playing hard.
continue downward top
There's only one place to go when you're up top and that's down. We just didn't want to continue that downward spiral.
sudden
All of a sudden we went from the penthouse to the outhouse.
ball defense fine great job jump quarter talk turned
The first quarter was fine and after we turned the ball over and we didn't talk on defense and didn't jump out on the screens. They did a great job executing. I thought they made us look foolish.
