amount carolina excellent guys handled held kids knew played poise proud second tremendous
I thought our guys held excellent poise down the stretch. We played with a tremendous amount of composure. We knew Carolina was going to make some runs, particularly there in the second half. I'm just so proud of how our kids handled that.
basketball guys physically played soft team tougher virginia
I thought we were a soft basketball team tonight. Virginia was physically tougher than we were. When we had guys take the ball out of our hands, well, that's toughness. And that No. 11 kid, he played hard.
guys plays year
We had guys that haven't made plays all year make plays for us.
bit great guard guys might post shoot step
Palacios and Padgett can step out and shoot the ball. They have great low-post moves. Our post guys might have to come out and guard a little bit more away from the basket.
games good guys shoot win
We're not good enough to win many games when those guys shoot poorly.
good guys next production program step
For us to be good and take the next step in our program those guys have got to be better, and we've got to have production out of those guys.
guys proud
I don't know. That's the official's read. We showed some toughness, I thought. I'm so proud of the way our guys executed.
guys leadership respect role taken vocal
Having vocal leadership is important to this team. He's taken that role on, and the guys respect what he says. To me when you don't have him on the court, that's what you're lacking.
effort guys hope rest
Our effort was there, and that's all you can hope for is if our guys will have that kind of energy, that kind of effort the rest of the year. You give yourself a chance, and that's what you want.
aggressive almost believe extremely great guard guys image job mirror post successful
(Virginia) is almost like a mirror image of us. They play a lot like we do. Their guard play is very good. Their post guys are very physical. They're aggressive and they play extremely hard. Dave's done a great job of getting those guys to believe they can be successful in this league.
guys pressure
There was too much pressure on those two guys. We need to get other guys involved.
difference free game good guys hard high team terms
They're an outstanding team and J.J. is terrific. We executed our game plan. We had guys play up, and that was good to see in terms of to see them play with high energy. The difference in the game? We make one three, they make 13 threes. We make 10 free throws, they make 29.... When you look at those two numbers, it's hard to win.
basketball guys passion second understand year
This is our second year (in the ACC), and I wanted our guys to understand the passion for basketball (in the conference).
ball good guys looks move terms
They got some really good looks in terms of us being able to move the ball and make good decisions. Those guys made big plays.
