I think the kids were really focused on yesterday's walk and practice. There was an edge to everybody, because Friday night nobody was very happy and that really carried over today.

It was just the kind of thing where we didn't read it well. That was a miscommunication, and they happen in the game.
confident couple glad gone kids last minutes pleased respect shot
The way it's gone down here, a dogfight to the finish, last shot would have pleased me just fine. We have that much respect for Lehigh. The way the last couple minutes went, I was glad our kids did keep their composure. This is a confident bunch. Not cocky, but confident.
good half intensity job kept offense putting second taking tone
I thought we did a good job defensively in the first half of taking them out of their offense and that really set the tone for the game. We kept our intensity in the second half and did a good job of putting them away.
ball clock drove foul knight scoring tone worst
I thought the tone was set at 1:19 when Knight drove the ball and they called a foul on Abe. The clock stopped, and they're scoring points. That's the worst thing.

I almost threw them out. It was more like (the players saying), 'When's the game going to get here?
feet touched
I think our feet have touched the ground, but just barely.

Brown has been tremendous all year long, at the beginning, I don't know if he was wound up a little bit or what. He made some great plays down the stretch and he really came through at the end.

The Thomas kid is doing it for them lately.

I think our kids were a little rushed. It's playoffs and we played that way. We played really fast.
game great kids left
It was a great game. The kids left it all out there. It was the kind of game where you thought you had it, and it got away.
aggressive coming excited force kids questions screens taking
I haven?t had any questions about the kids and where they?re taking shots. I get excited when we?re aggressive coming off screens and taking shots, even when (defenders) are trailing. But I can?t force them. They are the ones playing. They have to make those decisions.
