exactly gauge good playing teams test three
That's really going to tell us how good we are. We know right now that we're a very good team. ... All three of the teams we're playing have been playing really well recently. It will be a good test and a good gauge of where exactly we're at right now.
brown good guys hilton nine senior tight
I think that?s having nine guys who can come in and play. That?s having guys like Denham Brown and Hilton Armstrong, senior leaders, who have been there before. In tight situations, you know they?re going to make good plays.
bottom definitely focus good line playing
It's definitely going to be fun. I haven't been able to get back in a long time, but the bottom line is we're playing basketball. It's going to be good to see people, but at the same time, we need to focus on what we need to do.

finger game good hard keeps matter might struggling thinking
If I could put a finger on why, then I would have been not struggling by now. I might be thinking too much, but it's just kind of hard not to think about it when it just keeps happening. It's just a matter of me having that one good game and everything is going to be all right.

It felt good to make a play like that at a time like that.
basketball bunch court far focusing good happening job letting matter outside people playing thoughts throughout throw worrying year
It's just a matter of us really focusing on what we need to do and not letting other outside things throw us off track. I know we've already experienced a bunch of things throughout this year with things happening outside the court and expectations and thoughts about what people should be doing and everything. I think so far we've done a really good job of playing basketball and not worrying about all that other stuff.
excuse good
There's really no excuse for it. We're too good a team.
ball basically fight game good grind inside louisville team types win work
It's always good that you can have a team that can win all different types of games. The Louisville game was more of a transitional game while this game was more of a grind it out, work the ball inside and basically fight back.
close five four kept key needed second shots stayed stops tough within
It always is. That's how they really stayed in the game. They were just really, really tough tonight. They didn't let us get a 10-point cushion. They kept it within four or five all second half. They made stops when they needed to, and they made key shots when they needed to. So, it was close down the stretch.
again figured happen nights tonight
Just never let up. I thought we had really figured that out, but tonight was one of those nights where it happened. I don't think it will ever happen again with us.
fueled intense plane pushing
All those things - the (recruit Doug) Wiggins thing, the (charter) plane thing - may have fueled this. There was trash-talking, pushing and shoving. It was more intense because of all that.
alter beat block challenge knows point somebody whether
I think at this point just about everyone knows when they come down the lane, even if they do beat the first man, there's going to be somebody there to challenge the shot. Whether they block it or just alter the shot.

He loves to be in the spotlight, the center of attention. And as you can see, the kid makes some fantastic shots.
