There's no more pressure on us now than there was when we first started. We like to play basketball. We like to work hard in practice and we like to work hard in games and we like to win basketball games. That's all we're focused on right now and that's all that matters.

allow balls basketball capable collapsed dribble good guard hurting kept loose passes points situations
He is a very good player. And I thought we did well to guard him. He got some of those points off loose balls that we collapsed on and didn't get and he got passes in situations where he could score, but that's just how basketball works. But I thought we did well guarding him. We didn't allow him to penetrate too much and we kept him from hurting us off the dribble like he is capable of doing.

We ended up being to guard the post and the perimeter, and I think you have to give our players credit to be able to do so.

We had a lot of foul trouble and I thought that Burkett, Carl and Ess all gave us some great minutes. That was a big part of the win for us.
ability defense gives guard guy key team tough
I think our team is tough to guard because we don't have one guy that you can key on. If you take something away from us, we have had the ability to take what the defense gives us.
