coming couple foul game possession shots
We were 7-for-18 from the foul line. Coming down the stretch, a couple of those foul shots would have made it a one possession game and it would have been a lot more interesting.
loose nightmares plus rebound
We can really give you nightmares inside, and they really can you nightmares on the perimeter. Plus they rebound much better, get every loose ball.

John Thompson took something that could be perceived as almost menacing, because he was so big and was so serious looking, and used that to his advantage to create Hoya Paranoia, ... Every game they played, John was the underdog and yet he had Ewing and Wingate and Williams. That takes a masterful genius to do that.
pressure
We need someone to take the pressure off Marcus.
