game good hard monster nelson player second stop
Nelson had a monster game in the second half. He is a good player and was hard to stop tonight.
games hard shot win
That's a hard shot to make. You can win a lot of games in H-O-R-S-E if you can make that shot consistently.
aggressive attack ball best shoot shooter
We don't shoot the ball very well and our best shooter (Elam) wasn't here. We had to attack and be aggressive around the basket.
couple enormous final games last lost minutes number plays
We've lost an enormous number of games in the final seconds. They made plays in the last couple of minutes and we didn't.
half run second
We made a run in the second half but couldn't get over the hump.
lost
We didn't get it done at the end of the game. I don't want to know how many times that's happened. I've lost count.
size teams worn
That's a big problem. A lot of teams have worn us down with their size -- Nevada, Hawaii.
anybody good kansas proved round second team weekend win winning
They are good enough to play with anybody in the country. I think their win at Kansas (on Dec. 1) proved that. But I don't think winning in the first round is enough for them anymore. They look like a team that could go to the second weekend and do some damage.
team zone
We had breakdowns in our zone defense. We're not a team that can play from behind.
altered dozen good shooting shots
We're not a good shooting team. They are so long, they altered a dozen shots (total).
They're in the stratosphere in the RPI right now.
decided extremely final fingers games great last lost men mexico played second seems state team three trying wrong
This is extremely disappointing. New Mexico State played great in the second half. We have lost so many (games) in the final two minutes. It is heartbreaking for our team and our staff. By our count, we are 1-9 in games decided in the last three minutes. We are trying to put our fingers on it. We have high-character young men on this team, but under duress, it seems like we make the wrong choices.
body defender earn earned extend fade top
I thought we made him earn every one of them. And he earned that (last) one. It wasn't like he got a wide-open look. He had to extend his body up over the top of a defender right on him and fade backwards.
building concerned might obviously project self sound team
We're obviously in a building project with our program. This might sound kind of self-serving, but we're really not concerned about our record. We're concerned about our team going forward.
