good job key
We did a good job defensively on McGrath tonight. That was key for us.
changed deal question
There's no question it changed the game. It changed what we wanted to do. But those things are going to happen. You have to deal with it. We've done it before.
bigger guy
There's never been a guy with a bigger heart, I'll tell you that.
emphasis good playing
We don't put too much emphasis in scoring. I know it's going to be there at different times. Carl is making good decisions. He's playing good defense. He's rebounding. He's playing very well.
bad both guys knew relationship win wondered work
You always wondered how the relationship was going to work out with two guys that are so competitive. But both guys wanted to win so bad that they knew it was the right thing.
dug game huge ourselves points
We dug ourselves a huge hole. That many points when the game is only going to be in the 50s is a huge hole.
execution good played recognized throughout
We had good execution throughout the game. We recognized some things of how they played and executed our plan.
atmosphere biggest experience face four games good guys hostile last ncaa similar
We had four good games up there. We got a lot of good things out of it. A lot of guys got some good, big-game experience in a hostile atmosphere similar to what we'll face in the NCAA tournament. We got better last week. That's the biggest advantage.
either five fought games gone
We've had five games that could've gone either way on the road. Every game, we've battled and fought hard.
against athletic battle found good gut lights shoot win
That was a very good win against a very good team, well-coached and a tough, athletic group. We found a way to gut it out. We didn't shoot the lights out and it wasn't a pretty game, but we found a way to battle through.
aaron clock easy efficient good inside missed patience second shots wear
We were very efficient in the second half. We wanted to get it inside to Aaron from the start. We missed some easy ones early. Our patience was good in the second half. We used the clock and got shots at the end of the clock, which can wear down teams. We really had good clock management.
anxious business care guys played ready took
We'll be ready to go. Our guys will be anxious to go. We took care of business (Saturday). We played very well throughout.
capable concern guys near number ourselves progress talked
We don't concern ourselves with our record. It's all about getting better. We're not near where we need to be defensively. That's what we talked about after the game. We need to make significant progress defensively, and with the number of young guys we have, I think we're capable of doing that.
good next people question shot worked
I think it worked out well. The way it worked out, you're not going to get a better shot. We couldn't have done it any better. We got as good a shot as you can get on the next play. People are going to question it, but we did the right thing.
