fans four nice
We've had four (of these) with other fans celebrating at our expense, so it was nice to see our fans get a chance.
couple four games gave great learn mentally minute team three tough
In games like this there are little three or four minute spans when you've got to be mentally tough enough when that other team is really challenging you. They're distracting your game and you can't give in and I thought we gave in a couple of times and it will be a great thing for us to learn from.
four half hit kevin second warming
I told Kevin when we were warming up for the second half that I was going to hit four three-pointers,
bit created four half offensive played rebounds second shots
In the first half I thought we were just a little lethargic. That created a little bit of a gap. In the second half they only got four offensive rebounds and we played our tails off. We just couldn't make shots drop.
knock tremendous
I thought we had tremendous looks, but we just couldn't knock them down.
thank
I thought that's what he was going to try to do (miss). That's why I called a timeout. Thank goodness, he made the shot.
compare fun gun shoot spread
It is not a gimmick. I wouldn't compare it to a wishbone, I'd say it is more like the fun and gun because they spread you out and they are going to shoot the 3-pointer 25 times.
level played top
We played to the top level that we can play. Unfortunately, so did Cincinnati.
everybody hope issue rotation talent
We'll use a 10-man rotation and everybody just has to give us enough. I hope that's not an issue. The issue will be the talent we face.
best foul free shots throw tonight trademark usual
Our usual trademark is to make foul shots down the stretch, and tonight we didn't. We had two of our best free throw shooters at the line.
highest level louisville playing
I think Louisville is playing at the highest level they have all year.
attention handle kevin men special younger
Kevin is younger than most of our seniors, and some men could not handle all the attention the way he has. He is a very special person.
bit came character defense good guards kevin pitt realize shots took tried
Kevin came in here on a mission. I thought we were a little bit out of character at Pitt. We probably tried to do a little bit too much and probably didn't realize what good defense Pitt plays. We took shots we thought were good and they weren't because Pitt guards you.
learn
We just couldn't get over the hump. That's just the way it goes. We'll learn something from it.
