defense executing game good lead nice playing stuck
I think we just stuck to the game plan. For us it's playing good defense and executing on offense. We got a nice lead there. Everyone is playing well right now.
ball break credit defense defensive fast good led looked mistakes passing points simple
Part of it was we looked a little rusty, we made some simple mistakes, like passing the ball out of bounds. That led to some fast break points for them. You have to give credit to them. They did play good defense and did have good defensive pressure.
chris game hit knew shoots surprised time
I knew they were in just like every time he shoots them. Actually I was more surprised the game was tied. I thought Chris had hit a 3-pointer and we were up by a point.
beat chris gave man tripped turned
I kind of got tripped up going up there, but I just turned and Chris beat his man. Chris made the play, I just gave him the ball.
concentration focus hope lose row start
I hope you don't say too much to him. I don't want him to lose his concentration or his focus. When you start to think, I've made 30 in a row and don't want to miss, that's when you miss.
came
They came out and whooped up on us.
confidence open people presence tough ucla
We need to get some swagger, some confidence, back. We need to be getting into people defensively and having more of a presence on the court. UCLA is a tough one to open with, but I like where we're at right now.
expected hit knew start whatever
We knew he could shoot. I don't think we expected him to hit like 5-for-5, or whatever it was, to start the game. He hit some big shots.
personal stopping took
Everyone took it as a personal challenge, stopping their man.
eye granted injury nice perspective
This injury has put things in perspective for me. Sometimes you take things for granted like always being able to see perfectly. To go down with the eye injury was tough. It's nice to see again.
close three
That's not even close to simulating - when you've got a packed house, down three, Pac-10, Washington. You can't simulate that. If we did it three more times, it probably wouldn't work. But this one did.
last late night sleep
I didn't get a lot of sleep last night. When we got back, as late as it was, I probably got to sleep about 3:30 and got up at 9.
chris guys stepped
Chris stepped up big. A lot of guys stepped up big for us and that was huge.
anybody superstar
We didn't have anybody do any superstar play.
