You're hit with that, and you say to yourself, 'Wow. This is going to be something to deal with at the end of the year'.
affect concerned
You're always concerned about how it's going to affect these guys.
looked offensive sideline sitting
It looked ridiculous. Honestly, I am sitting on the sideline saying, 'We look like idiots.' Especially when they would go up and get an offensive rebound.

It looked a lot worse than it was. It's going to be day-to-day.
al initially looked prognosis vision worse
It looked a lot worse than it was. Al is going to be released. He has vision and it's going to be day-by-day prognosis now. But it's much, much better than we initially anticipated.

It kind of feels like a conference game to me. You know each other. You know what each of you is going to do. You just have to play the game.

It kind of feels like a conference game. This just seems like a Big East game to me. I feel we're in the middle of January and we've got BC next.
compared great guards hear night plays thank type
It's cool. That was an old school, split-the-house type of night. Thank God, (Lowry) plays for us. There have been a lot of great Philadelphia guards to play here. That's just a great thing to hear him compared on this night to some of them.
came game huge league matter time
The league is a grind. There was just never a time to relax. Every game was a huge game, no matter who came in.
came good guys happened intrigued kyle mike played players playing
If he and Mike came, we wouldn't be able to get Kyle (Lowry). If we didn't get Mike and got (Shakur), we probably could get Kyle. Players like playing with good players. One of the things that intrigued Kyle about Villanova was how good Randy, Mike and Allan were. When he came and played with them I think he was impressed. Sometimes some of these guys like being around other real good players and I think that's what happened in Kyle's case.
against games good last pleased teams texas three tough
I've got to give Texas credit. The last three games have been against good teams in tough environments. I'm very pleased with our team, we just didn't execute.
difference plans
The difference is now, as a one seed, everyone's making plans for Minneapolis. It's a completely different challenge, and it is a challenge.
