goal great hard life seen seize stress teams tough trying win work
It's so tough to get there, so many things have to work in your favor. I've seen a lot of great teams not make it, and teams that shouldn't have made it work hard and get there. It's been the goal of my life to get there and win a championship. That's the thing we're trying to stress is you have to seize the moment.

We're deeper than I showed tonight. I just felt with their size advantage and the pressure they were putting, I had to have fewer guys in the game. They're deep. They can come at you with a bunch of big bodies and coach Scott uses them well. They crashed the boards, got up and down and they played a great game.

Jeff really came out early and got us going.

I thought we came out and did the little fundamental things that help you win. We jumped the ball on defense, rebounded, guarded the ball pretty well most of the night and ran the court fairly well.
