mental seem
It's the same old story. We just can't seem to find it down the stretch. We always seem to have a mental lapse.
confidence everybody locker quiet
It was quiet in the locker room, but it wasn't down. Everybody had confidence in us getting that win.
best definitely game hang last leaders ncaa next says teams winning
The next best thing is winning the NIT championship if you don't get to the NCAA. There's only two teams that win their last game ? and we're one of them for the last two years and that says a lot. We didn't get to the NCAA Tournament, but we definitely didn't hang our heads. We had some veterans, some leaders ... to tell these guys, 'Man, we're here to win it.' And we did.
explain since
You think about 20-win seasons. Since I've been here, we've had two. It's so frustrating you can't explain it.
confidence good shown
We know what we can do. The confidence is already there. We haven't been as good as we are. We haven't shown our abilities. But we will.
apply box game good practice
We can do all the drills in the world, but we have to apply it in the game. We look so good in practice doing them, then we come out in the game and it's not the same. ... We have to rebound. We have to box out on every play. We have to do the little things.
beat felt game lost point tonight
We felt like we should've beat them, but we just lost focus. Tonight we had more focus. It was the same game plan. There really wasn't a point where we lost it.
bad control counting guys horrible offense played responsibility run time total
I played a horrible game. I should take total responsibility of the game. Every time we got a run I think I made a bad play. We couldn't really get control of our offense because I wasn't controlling the team. I didn't do my job. Those guys were really counting on me (and) I didn't come through for them.
good guard guy point worry
I don't really worry about the guy I'm facing. I know he's a good point guard. But it's all about what I do out there. He has to guard me also.
excitement face regular slapping smile stuff yelling
He's yelling, but he's yelling with excitement and with a smile on his face. There's no way for us to go in there (to games) tight. He'll have a smile on his face the whole practice, almost. He's slapping fives, stuff he doesn't do during the regular season.
breakdown close games hurts mental work
To think back on those games that we have lost, the close games, it hurts you. It hurts you to know what we could do better. We put so much work into it and then come into the game and just have a mental breakdown offensively and defensively. We just want to scream.
basketball held minutes played
We played all 40 minutes of that basketball game. We held them.
came win
We didn't come here to play one or two games. We came here to win the championship.
advantage couple defender steps tried
I was able to get a couple of steps on my defender a couple of times, and I tried to take advantage of that.
