coming east gritty intense teams walk
It's going to be a grind-out game. It's going to be a Big East game. It's not going to be a walk in the park. With No. 1 on our chests, a lot of teams are coming for us, especially Pitt. With their gritty attitude, it's going to be an intense game...This is like a fight. It's more like 1-on-1-on-1-on-1-on-1.
bully coward ego pride seem step team teams
The team doesn't want to be bullied. It makes you look like a coward and makes you look small. Our team has more of an ego or a pride thing. Teams seem to try and bully us and we step up and take the challenge.
good talented teams tough
These were tough teams, talented teams with good players.
again coach gave mixed opportunity playing start teams today
Coach mixed up the teams today and gave me an opportunity to go out there and start playing again with my teammates.
game reason teams won
We see the bracket, but those other teams got there for a reason. They won the first two game just like we did. I don't think you can go out there and take teams lightly.
aggressive gets involved
When we get Rashad involved early, we are a way better team. He's gets aggressive and had a lot of heart.
best came played together tournament
We bounced back and came together at the right time. At tournament time, we played our best basketball.
felt four guards nailed
We experimented a lot with it but we felt more comfortable with four guards in there. I think we nailed things down.
behind ready regular season time year
We're ready to play. It's the time of year where you have to put everything behind you. The regular season is over. We got the championship, but that's all said and done.
confident hearts knew needed shown
We knew they were going to play their hearts out. Before the game, they said they packed two suits. They were confident about going to Sunday. That right there should have shown us we needed to come to play.
almost last stepping time year
We are almost where we need to be. It was last year at this time (the UA) started stepping on people's throats. That's what we have to do next.
fire
Play With Fire, ... there's no iBook in team.
coming craig drop easier game guard man playing plays starting step teammates top trying
Playing with Craig makes it a lot easier for me. And I think what's a lot easier for me is a lot easier for our team. When I'm coming off a lot of off-the-ball picks, it's more of a 4-on-3 game than it is 5-on-5, starting at the top and trying to set up the offense. When I'm coming off screens, I think I can make my teammates better because their man is going to have to step up and guard me. I think I can drop it off. If not, I think I can make plays alone.
lie playing
Playing a No. 16 seed, sometimes you think they are going to lie down and give us the win. We need to go out and take the first hit.
