break good happen players
Hopefully, we can break through. Our players have got to find a way. They need something good to happen for themselves.
extremely good minute played team
Other than a minute and a half, our team played an extremely good game.
gone good
He got a good look at the basket. If it had gone in, that would have been the game.
both cage defense energy huge key played
Cage was huge for us off the bench. I thought his play on both ends, not just his shots, but the physicality he played with on defense and his energy was really a key for us.
asks mario
That's completely ludicrous. That's completely nonsensical. If Mario has a question, he asks me. If I have a question, I ask him. That's absurd.
defensive guys hard played second shooting shots
I really thought our guys played hard and played well on the defensive end. We just didn't make shots in the second half, and shooting will come and go on you, but I really thought our guys competed hard.
add deserved fight guys hold misses shoot stand
I probably deserved one long before I got that one. You've got to stand up and fight for your guys at some point. We out-rebounded them by 12, and not only that they had a lot more misses than we did. We hold them to 36 percent, we shoot 47 percent...some of those things didn't add up.
people pick seems surprised
I'm not surprised at all. Some people want to pick us to be down, but it never seems like we are.
couple felt finish found game nashville seemed somehow ways won
In some ways this game felt the game at our place only in reverse. We kind of had the game won a couple different times in Nashville and somehow found a way to not to finish the job. It seemed like they had this one a couple times.
bringing challenge difficult game georgia improved job nice program team
Georgia is probably the most improved team in the league. Dennis (Felton) has done a nice job of bringing the program along. It will be a difficult challenge to get a game back on the road.
board great guess job wrote
The first thing we wrote on the board was that we have to do a great job on 23 (Morrow). I guess we didn't get that done.
