four job knocking people sending teams three
You've got teams sending three and four people at Tyler. Once he does get it out, we just have to do a better job of knocking down the shots.
average chance coming guys higher players slight stepped three
It wasn't anything like a slight to me. Those were just the facts. We got a chance to let other players play this year, and guys stepped up. Now if they say 'I'm coming back,' my average would be a lot higher than three points.
best national second winning
The feeling's just great. It's only second best to winning the national championship.
calm coach job last people satisfying season sit teach team watch williams year
It's so satisfying to know we could do things some people didn't think we could. In some ways, Coach Williams is doing a better job with this team than he did last season. I mean, last season he could sometimes sit back and watch the show. This year he is more calm and has had to teach more. And it has shown.
basket closer definitely easy far helped
That definitely helped us out as far as getting closer to the basket and getting some easy buckets.
afford against fresh people running stop team
When you get tired, especially in this game, get yourself out of there so we can have fresh people in at all times so we won't have to stop running or take a play off on defense. Against a team like Duke, you can't afford that.
best control game hitting shooting tried
We tried to take away what they do best and that is shooting 3's. They can really control a game if they are hitting them and take you out of your flow.
both game track trying
We still feel like this is a big-time game. We've had some stumbles just as well as they have. We're both trying to get back on track and use this game as a booster.
good knew last needed step team took
I knew my team needed me to step up, and at that time, I was getting some good looks. I just took them, and they went in. For the most part, that was their last run.
best head nerve player stay
It was nerve racking. But at the same time, you just want to go out and do the best that you can. For the most part, just try to stay the same player that you've been all year. Don't try to do anything over your head or try to do anything spectacular.
against capable game great hopefully job ourselves proving today
We did a great job of proving ourselves today against a very capable team. Hopefully, we won't be on the (NCAA) fence. But if we are, hopefully this will be a game they look at.
