ready talked
We talked about being on our game. If you're not ready to play, you'll go down.
basketball coming excellent fact guys ready respect second talked took utmost
We had the utmost respect for them coming in. We talked about the fact that we had to come ready and play excellent basketball tonight. I don't think for even one-half a second our guys took UNCG lightly, not even for one-half second.
degree hard liberty pursue talk true
We're really not at liberty to talk about it. What I can tell you is that Gavin is a true gentleman, and he is working hard to pursue his degree at N.C. State.
leave liberty practicing situation talk
Obviously, in a situation like this, as you're well aware, we're really not at liberty to talk about it. Right now, he's practicing with our team. He's going to class. That's where I think we need to leave it.
fine good guys job led opportunity presents scoring stops talk tonight transition
We always talk about (scoring in transition). We're fine scoring in transition if the opportunity presents itself. Sometimes it doesn't. Tonight our guys did a good job of getting some stops that led to some transition opportunities for us.
far rather talk
We'd be far better to try to play our way rather than talk our way in.
brilliant connect dots hard help invaluable julius last meant overcome practice seen talking team terms wonder year
When you think of Tony, you think back to all that he's had to overcome in terms of injuries. What he's meant our team this year has really hard to calculate; he's been invaluable to us. Only now that we've seen how brilliant he has been you can't help but wonder what he could have meant to our team last year. In retrospect, we can now connect the dots and see what Julius was talking about when he could only practice with us that year.
both effort extending giving good great half job mixing offense playing pressure talks
I think they're playing very hard. They're really getting after it both defensively and on offense. Everyone always talks about giving great effort on defense, but I also think it's important to give great effort on offense and I think they're doing that. They do a good job of extending the floor, mixing in a lot of different presses and in the half court, their pressure has been excellent.
hit shots
We just never got a run, never hit back-to-back shots to give us anything so that we could get back in the door.
cut good hit huge lead margin sliced tony
We just had to get the margin sliced before the half, and we did some good things. When Tony hit that big 3 and cut the lead to five, that was huge for us.
difficult time
We just had a difficult time getting things over, around, or through him.
basically carolina good north thoroughly whipped
We were outplayed, out-coached and thoroughly whipped by a very good North Carolina team. Our rebounding was basically nonexistent, and I'm very disappointed in the way we played.
good knock looks
We got some good looks but just didn't knock 'em down.
fortunate kept run shots trading
It was very back-and-forth all game. We just kept trading shots and we were fortunate to have one more run in us.
