miss open quick settle
I thought we were quick to settle for the 3. At the same time, we did miss some open shots.
capacity certainly fight
It is a long season, and you must have the capacity to get back up off the mat and fight another day. We certainly did not play very well, and that is obvious.
challenge crowd difference gave half second stepped support
I think the difference in the second half was just being here at the RBC Center. The crowd really stepped up to the challenge and gave us the support we needed.
both effort extending giving good great half job mixing offense playing pressure talks
I think they're playing very hard. They're really getting after it both defensively and on offense. Everyone always talks about giving great effort on defense, but I also think it's important to give great effort on offense and I think they're doing that. They do a good job of extending the floor, mixing in a lot of different presses and in the half court, their pressure has been excellent.
basketball college
It was a really hard-fought college basketball game.
cal emotional great shot tough win
It was a tough way to lose, a hard-fought and very emotional game. And it was a great shot by Cal to win it.
glad sorry
I'm glad we did it. I'm sorry we didn't do it sooner.
defend difficult
It's so difficult to defend them. They are so talented.
cash couple good knock liked looks nearly others situation
Each situation was different. There were a couple that we really did get some good looks and we just didn't cash them down. There were some that we didn't get nearly the look we would have liked and some others we didn't knock down.
games guys lost takes won
Everyone of those games that we've won we could have lost ... we've just had guys make plays. Our guys are doing what it takes right now.
both game hopefully improved january practices teams weekend
I think we've improved in every area, and I think they could say the same. That game was the first weekend in January before we started going through this gauntlet. I think both teams just have so many more experiences; so many more practices that have hopefully made us better in every area. And I think we both probably are.
attention basketball cases drawn excellent guys obviously patch played tough
Our guys obviously have had a tough patch here at the end of the year. A lot of attention has been drawn to that. In some cases we've played excellent basketball during this stretch.
anybody basketball both ends great hard talented
I think they're a great basketball team. They're as talented as anybody and play very hard at both ends of the floor.
bus character good guys tremendous
I thought our guys just showed tremendous character tonight. It's always good to be on the bus with these guys.
