came hard inside open virginia west wide
We just came out to play real hard and let West Virginia know we were here. This was the most we went inside all season. It was wide open every time.
beat harder means prove teams

That was probably one of the most memorable things. I'd say they're the best crowd for that.
anybody fighting fights-and-fighting letting
I wasn't letting anybody get that but me. I was fighting my way through.
kindness lead point pulled
We pulled it out in the end, but it shouldn't have even got to that point with the kind of lead we had.
ball boxed free knew man matter missed mistake nobody
On the first one, I knew my man didn't want the ball as much as I did. I was going to get it no matter what. When I missed my free throw, they made a mistake and nobody boxed me out and it was right there for me.
