attack came gate practice syracuse talked time
We came out of the gate and executed throughout. We didn't have a lot of time to practice for Syracuse and their 2-3 zone, but mentally, we talked about a lot of what we wanted to do to attack it.
against battle came continued east game good ncaa physical shooting team
This was a tough, physical Big East game against a team who I think will be good enough to go to the NCAA Tournament. Our shooting wasn't great, but Marquette had a lot to do with that, so we continued to battle and came away with a big win.
aggressive came exactly execute needed played second
We came back and played better in the second half. But we just didn't execute as well as we needed to. They were aggressive and that had something to do with it. But it was not a surprise. It was exactly what we thought.
came defense fine free game good instead line ourselves position putting win
We put ourselves in a position to win. But it just came down to free throws. There is such a fine line between a win and a loss. It would have been good if it would have went in, but we need to play better defense through the game instead of putting ourselves in that position.
came couple game good lack plays
It was a good game that came down to a couple of plays at the end. We came up a little short. It wasn't for a lack of intensity.
attacking ball bit came good great hard inside job playing shoot teams tonight
We didn't shoot it great tonight and a lot of that has to do with the zone. I thought we got the ball inside when we wanted to. I thought we did a good job attacking but don't read too much into it. It was two teams playing hard and we came up a little bit short.
amazing came feeling fine free happy
It came down to free throws. It's amazing how it's such a fine line. It's amazing how one little thing can go from making you feel happy to feeling disappointment.
came couple knew plays roll
At the end of the game, as we knew it would, it came down to a couple plays at the end and they just didn't roll our way.
came game good obviously ourselves position proud
At this point, we're obviously disappointed. We put ourselves in a good position at the end of the game but we came up a little short. I'm so proud of how we battled. We got better this week.
came decisions good great percentage shooting
It was just a big effort. Our shooting percentage was terrific. We just came out and made shots. They were good shots, but I thought we made some great decisions to get there.
days despite fact good last playing stressed three
We weren't playing well despite the fact that we stressed the last three days about getting off to a good start.
flight
We think he's going to be on the flight (Thursday).
battle free good playing second teams throws win
It was two good teams playing well. They made free throws (11 for 14 in the second half), and we need to win the rebounding battle more than we did.
good ncaa playing teams tournament won
They are an NCAA Tournament team. It was two very good teams playing out there. We won the battle.
