When we shoot well, we're pretty darn good. We always try to defend and rebound, but we look better when we make shots. Today, we were pretty hard to guard.

I felt like if we could keep pressure on them and make them shoot jump shots.

We've had a lot of practice the last two weeks and it showed today. When we shoot well, we're pretty darn good.

We won the Evansville game differently than we won the Missouri State game, for example. Whether it's rebounding or free throw shooting or defense or offensive execution, it's been something different each game for us.

Our guards are starting to play better. We are capable of shooting it. We have good shooters.

I think I probably built him up too high. He's struggled shooting the ball the second half of the season.

It was very frustrating to see us play like that. I told our guys that I didn't know who that team was out there tonight ? four guys standing around while one guy went one-on-one. We didn't play our game.

Our shot selection hurt us in the first half, hurt our defense, and that was really disappointing.
hurt selection shot valiant
Our shot selection hurt us in the first half. After that I thought we (gave) a valiant effort.
bad execution played second shots three took
Our execution was really, really good, especially in the second half. We only took three bad shots the whole game. We really played unselfish.

Our execution was good. We worked really hard this week. Not knowing who you were going to play really helped us because we worked on us, and I think it showed today in our execution.

We have done a lot of nice things here in our first six years. We have gotten better every year. We have won a lot of league games. We learned how to win on the road. We've won a league championship. Now we need to figure out how to play well in St. Louis. Creighton has figured that out. That's why everybody knows who Creighton is.

There's no question were gonna get their best shot. Hopefully, we're up to the challenge and we'll match their emotion early in the game and let them know we're for real.
