basketball becoming early good great hopefully played second start stretch
I thought we had a great stretch of basketball early in the second half. We played well enough to keep the lead. Hopefully this is the start of becoming a good basketball team.
effort stayed stretch tough
I'll take that effort we had. We stayed tough down the stretch when we could have let them go.
close five four minutes pick run stretch win
A lot of times in a close game, it's only four or five minutes that are different. You have to pick your stretch and run it as long as you can. We got it out to 13 and it was enough to win the game.
great job particular players
I thought our players did a great job the way we started out today, with everything that's going on around this particular game.
defense double good whether
I thought our defense wasn't good enough. Whether we doubled down or didn't double down, it just wasn't good enough.
ball basically bit intensity pushing stepped transition
I think we started pushing the ball and defensively kind of stepped up our pressure. Basically we just stepped up the intensity and were able to push the ball a little bit and get some transition buckets.
good played
I think so. We got up 25 (points) there. We played pretty good basketball.
behind cars front gotta speeding stand stopped
I see more cars stopped for speeding than I do trucks. They just can't stand to be behind a truck. They just gotta be in front of it.
attack basketball best carolina coming defense game guards hard north playing work
I said coming into this game North Carolina is playing the best basketball right now. They have size, their guards do what they have to do, they work hard on defense and they attack the glass.
bodies factor healthy second
We had more healthy bodies than they did, and it was probably going to be a factor in the second half.
game goes hang lead lull momentum win
We (had) a little lull there and they got some momentum. When you have momentum at home, that lead goes quick, and it really went quick. For us to hang on like that and win the game - that was big.
battle boston focus game time
Our focus and our only focus is on Boston College. We have to do battle one game at a time before we can do any celebrating.
help playing week
Playing well this week will help us. That's all you can do.
home matter ncaa necessary six stay teams
It doesn't matter how you do it or how it looks, but you just have to win. As a home game, it was probably a necessary win. The NCAA is probably going to take six teams from the ACC, so we just have to stay in the mix.
