against finding good handed job looked sort zone
We thought the zone would be good against them, but we didn't do a good job of finding Rice. When we did find him, we sort of looked at him as he handed us a 3.
against biggest defense guard problem
We didn't guard well against N.C. State. But our biggest problem with our defense is our offense.
changed chris dynamics guard justin plays point replace wing
With Chris Paul's departure, the dynamics have changed because not only do you have to replace the point guard, but you also have to replace the wing guard if Justin plays the point.
fall full head
That is just not acceptable. Clearly, there are a lot of things missing. Ultimately, those things fall on me. I'm the head coach, and I take full responsibility.
deal season
That's a big deal to us. This season has been disconcerting, very much so.
dealing guard harder losing point shooting time
I told Justin, I'm going to have a harder time dealing with losing my shooting guard than my point guard.
goal lost relevant three tinker trying until
We're just trying to find the right combination. We'd lost three in a row, and that's pretty unacceptable. Our goal is to be relevant in the ACC race. So we're going to tinker until we think we have it right.
bit closer gotten run sort
We've run that play before. He probably could have gotten a little bit closer to the goal, but we sort of got what we wanted there.

The proof of the pudding is in the eating. We can talk about having a lot of games left and we can turn this around, but we have to start turning it around.
respond run start
We didn't respond back. We had a run to start the half, they had a run back, and it was up to us to make a run back at them. We didn't have the wherewithal to do that.
chances gave grab within
They gave us chances to grab the game. We just didn't have it within us to do that.
chances free game gave grab missed ourselves quick took within
They gave us chances. They missed some free throws. They took some quick shots. They gave us chances to grab the game and we didn't have it within ourselves to do that.
That's what's so disappointing is that we couldn't finish.
league ordeal playing
This league is a two-month ordeal and we're not playing well enough right now to win.
