comment paint slow sort watching
I don't like low-scoring games. I made the comment it's sort of like watching paint dry. I like to go up and down the floor, and that's what we are all about. I don't like slow games.
eventually felt good knew lots run sloppy tempo tough
A little sloppy at times, but we knew it was going to be a tough game. We're a team, with the tempo we play, lots of times we play in runs. We felt like we eventually could go on a run and get a pretty good lead.
conference next stronger
You may think I'm crazy, but I think the conference will be stronger next year.
ball four fun good run strong teams watch
All the teams, they go up and down the floor, run the ball well, they have a strong inside-outside game. Just good balance, good flow. All four teams here are a lot of fun to watch play.
basketball carolina good half playing second
The first half and the second half were very different. We weren't rebounding and weren't playing very good defense. Once we started playing Carolina basketball we were OK.
heart
All I know is that we're going to play with a lot of heart and passion, and we're going to have fun.
agree bracket final four great help motivate played regional seems strength teams year
You could make a great Final Four just from the teams in our regional alone. Everyone seems to agree it's the toughest. But, we've played great teams all year and we'll be prepared. I think the strength of this bracket will help motivate our team.
team kids giving
It's good to give some of the kids a chance for playing time and some confidence. It doesn't do any good to leave starters out there just to beat a team by 60-70 points.
