hard heard injury leg people recover strong work
I heard some people say something about it was an injury you don't get to recover from. I don't know. After people told me that, it's kind of surprising. But I thought I would work hard to get back and get my leg back strong enough to be able to play.

Just try to make him take tough shots and don't let him get any free looks. We just got to be there to contest their shots and not let them get anything easy.

Defensive letdowns and turnovers, our main problems all year, hurt us in the second half. We have to put together two good halves of basketball.
caused falling run second stretch
Some were falling in the first half, but in the second half, we couldn't get anything to fall for that long stretch from Lutz' 3-pointer to Bobby's 3-pointers. That caused a (Penn State) run to come about.
catch guard hard players score shoot type
He's real crafty. He has a lot of skills. He can score off the dribble, catch and shoot it. Those type of players are hard to guard when they can do so many things, and that's why he's effective.
additional advantage game gave good instead points shots
We had a lot of unforced turnovers in the first half. That gave them the advantage. They only had 27 points at halftime, which was pretty good defense. Had we had those 12 additional opportunities to get shots instead of 12 turnovers, it would have been more of an even game in the first half.
excited good
We have some good new players. They are really talented, very athletic. I'm really excited to play with them.
