against beat loose percent second shot team time
We couldn't get a stop. We just couldn't. That's only the second time a team has shot 50 percent against us ... They beat us on the glass. They went after every loose ball. They made big shots.
best chris shots slow tough
We need to make Chris Hernandez take tough shots and do the best we can to slow him up.
bad felt good hands normally shooting shots
I felt good about it because I was shooting that bad and Hassan wasn't shooting that great, but we were still up. If we'd been making the shots we normally make, then this would have been a different game. We'd have had it in our hands from the get-go.
everybody hit hitting people playing raises shots
Without Hassan here, we need people to come in and hit big shots. When he's hitting shots and playing with confidence, it raises everybody else's level.
advantage against athletic ball catch crowd drive force guys lane obviously position shots smart tall
I want to crowd him. Not really let him catch the ball and ... play smart because obviously he'll take advantage if you're out of position a little bit. You have to force him to be athletic and make him drive by you and make athletic shots in the lane against our tall guys in the middle.
accept challenge giving shots team throws
They're giving me lanes, giving me shots to take. So why not take them? I think our team can accept any challenge a team throws at us.
ball expecting patient realized shot team
I was kind of overeager in some of those games, expecting to just get the ball and score. I just realized you have to play with the team. Everyone on the team can do really well, so you have to be patient and the shot will come to you.
break earlier knew seen shots trying
I knew they were trying to find Roy. I've seen him make big shots earlier in the year. I kind of glanced to see where he was and just made a break over there.
coming ivan taking talked
We talked about coming out fast, but when Ivan was taking over, everyone else was off. We have to get everyone going.
basically job knew mental moment sat
We just sat here and thought. Basically a mental thing where we knew we didn't do the job and we didn't do our job defensively or offensively so we just kind of had a moment of silence.
arizona ball basketball played points shared
We just really shared the ball and played Arizona basketball out there. We got out and put points on the board.
bad defense flashes good offense points
We showed some flashes tonight. We're confident. Our defense was good at some points and our offense was good at some points and we were bad at some points with both.
athletes coach felt nasty
We felt we had better athletes on the perimeter than they did. Coach told me and Hassan to get in there and get nasty on the glass.
against best game heads seems soon
It would be the same if we were No. 4 or No. 24. Connecticut is Connecticut. They're going to want to take our heads off as soon as we get out there. They're going to be aggressive. It may be the best game they have all season. Everyone seems to have their best game against us.
