forget halftime played playing runs score second team teams
We played as well as we could play in the first half. I said to this team at halftime this is really about us going out and playing a better second half. Forget about the score and try to put it away and not let teams make runs on you like they have.
believe league runs
I still believe to be a factor, this league runs through Manhattan.
against game games home last league lost played resilient saint three tough win
Every game in this league is a battle. We've had some tough losses. We played well enough against Saint Peter's, Loyola and Iona at home to win the game. Those were three games we lost in the last 35 seconds. We're a resilient group.
good people point stop surprised
At some point people are going to stop being surprised by Jared. He's a pretty good player.
developing floor guard guy harder move myriad ryan score situations skills
We move him around the floor and put him in a lot of situations where he could score in a myriad of ways. I think it's harder to guard a guy like Ryan when he is developing his skills and he's never in the same place on consecutive possessions.
again defensive difficult talked team
We talked to this team over and over again about defensive intensity. They made some very difficult shots.

I think we played the most talented team of the year on perhaps their best night of the year.
beat dangerous extremely presents problems proven team
I think Canisius presents a lot of problems because they're terrific, defensively. If they're making shots, they're an extremely dangerous team because they've proven they can beat anybody.
against caught difference game guy huge hurt known player players role step uncommon
That caught all of us off guard. That's a huge difference in the game is that you have a guy who's not known as a scorer, who's known as a role player ... in our losses, that's really what's hurt us: Some role players step up and make some uncommon 3s against us.
