great nevada start tournament
You start with Nevada but I think it will be a great tournament because of the competitiveness of this conference.
angles bump knows push
He knows angles to the basket. He can take a bump and finish. If you can't push him off the block, he's dangerous.
credit played
I thought we played for the (first) 17 minutes, then we got in a funk. You have to give them credit for that.

He just lost his desire to play competitively. I have full respect for that. We wish him the very best.

If you don't have those things you're going to live or die with the jumper. That's kind of how it was for us.

I think you've got to look at Nevada, Utah State and Louisiana Tech immediately.
both consistent ends looks open second
The second half, we just had some breakdowns on both ends of the floor. We had open looks at the 3, but it didn't go down. We just weren't able to get anything consistent inside.
appreciate beat enjoy fact game plan quality
You to have to appreciate when you beat a quality team. You have to enjoy the fact that the game plan was executed, that we competed and just had an all-around contribution. You just have to enjoy it even for a little bit.

I loved my experience here. We've got a lot of special memories here.
compete eight either finally game issues last minutes people seven time whatever year
This was the most dysfunctional game I've ever been in. This was the first time this year that we did not play as a team. Whatever the issues were, we did not compete on either end of the floor. In the last seven or eight minutes we finally started guarding people and that's when we made our run.
beat clicking complete played team unless
We had to play well. We had to play very, very well. We're not going to beat a team like that unless we're clicking on all cylinders. Tonight, we played a complete game.
ball great guys hurt job post second shot state took utah
Utah State really shot the ball well. I thought we did a great job on their post guys in the first half, and their perimeter guys kind of hurt us. Then in the second half, we did a better job on the perimeter, but the post guys kind of took it to us.
basketball coming focus good great moment playing plays team
You have to just focus on the moment and every opportunity. We know we're coming here and playing a really good basketball team that really plays well at home, and that's great motivation.
