I know that it didn't look pretty to the fans, but it sure looked pretty to me.

Allan looked great. He was right back at it and didn't show any signs of tentativeness at all. He was right back at it.

fans feelings game gave gerry great hotel looked mixed nicely sons spent wearing weekend
I had mixed feelings. I wanted it to end nicely for him, but not at our expense. He had a great game and we got the win. We wanted to be focused, but there was so much going on. Our hotel looked like I spent a weekend in Scranton. My sons were wearing Gerry McNamara jerseys that the Scranton fans gave them.

champions coming except good prove
I don't know what to expect, except that these are champions coming back to prove themselves. I know it's going to be everything they've got. The good thing is, that's how they play anyway. I don't know how much more they can bring.

It's cool. That was an old school, split-the-house type of night. Thank God, (Lowry) plays for us. There have been a lot of great Philadelphia guards to play here. That's just a great thing to hear him compared on this night to some of them.

This is the first time we've been in this position. I know Syracuse has been through it a lot, but at this point we're enjoying it.

I thought we started the game really strong and were very focused, which is a credit to our guys playing at 10:30 in the morning. I thought Australia made a great adjustment in the second half by going to a smaller lineup which gave us trouble.
