grow maybe played pressure
Maybe we put too much pressure on ourselves. And I think that's something we have to grow from because I don't think we played as confidently as we had.
ball conscious plays shots teams
That's why they went zone, to keep the ball away from Kelly. They were very conscious of Kelly, as all teams are. We want to get him shots, but it's important not just to get shots but to make plays if he's double-teamed.

It's disappointing that everybody can't get to the tournament. We should all be (together). We're all in it together. But there's four teams that don't go, and that's a major motivation in itself.

bring defense energy focused game good job needed plan stop taking team
We've been a focused team, a team that's executed the game plan and a team that's done a good job taking away threes. Tonight, that didn't happen. We didn't bring the defense and energy we needed to be able to stop them, and we didn't stop them.
allow early shots
We didn't take the shots away. When you allow (shooters) to get going early and feel about themselves, you're in for a long night.
home opportunity reality
This is the first time since I've been coaching that I gave them off on Christmas Day. Sometimes when you lose a game you want to get right back at it. But in reality I thank God we had an opportunity for our guys to be home with their families on Christmas.

When you allow a player like Chandler to get some easy baskets in transition, it can get you off to a good start ... Everybody's playing for something.
