beating capable chance four good left means national proud team teams three win
This team should be very proud of what they have accomplished so far, but by no means should we be satisfied. We're one of four teams left with a chance to win the national championship. If we play like we're capable, we're capable of beating anybody. But there are three other really good teams there other than ourselves.
double easy letting tried
We tried to double him and that didn't work. We were too easy on him, too soft. We were letting him get the ball.
anyone beat challenged guys pressure run shoot
We wanted to put more pressure on the ball. We let them run their offense. I challenged our guys at halftime. I told them you're not going to beat anyone if you let them shoot 73 percent.
bad four three took
We had three or four possessions up two and we didn't score. That's the game. We couldn't make lay-ups, we didn't execute, we took bad shots.
screens switched work
We made a little adjustment. We switched off on screens on him. We made him work for all his shots.
ball extra limited selection shot turn
We didn't turn the ball over. We made the extra pass. We limited them to one shot and our shot selection was good.
consistent continue focused good kids lawrence understand
Lawrence is a very good team. They are well coached. But it's a lot about us. If we continue to play like we've been playing, I like our chances. The kids understand the need to be consistent and focused mentally.
free good great hit matt shooter shots throw
Matt has hit some big shots this year. He's a good shooter and a great free throw shooter. He's got a lot of guts.
control favorites losing mercy teams winning
I don't think you can think that way. The only thing we can control is to win. If we don't win, we're at the mercy of other teams losing or favorites winning (across the country).
along best country fabulous guard point record speak stated
He's had a fabulous career. His record is going to speak for itself. I've stated all along I think he's the best point guard in the country at this level.
doubted fine hoping kick line minutes people waiting winning
We've been waiting for one of these, hoping it would kick in. We wanted to play 40 minutes and we did. A lot of people doubted us, but there is a fine line between winning and losing.
aggressive second start
We got what we deserved. To start out like we did ... We didn't play well the first half, with no energy. We were a lot more aggressive the second half.
anywhere forward good happy lawrence playing sure
We'll go anywhere to play. I'm sure Lawrence will be a good host. We look forward to the opportunity. We're happy to be in. We're playing well.
