line shooting
I've been shooting it well from the line this year. I was able to make them. Sometimes they go in and sometimes they don't. When they go in, it makes you look good.

We just came out flat against a good team and when you do that on the road, you pay for it. We just got down by too many points.

We were looking for a boost and he (Murray) did it for us. If it wasn't for him, we wouldn't be celebrating this win.

We couldn't close the game. These last few games could have gone either way. It's hard. We knew that they play hard. They are young but they play hard.
