I just told our team we didn't play very well, but we found a way to win. One, it's the mark of a quality basketball team to do that; and two, we get a chance to play tomorrow and play better.

We were looking for some penetration. But we wanted a quick look at it, to try to make something happen.

Charlie's been a guy all year long who has made plays for us. Whether that's been on defense with a blocked shot, or getting a rebound or scoring, he's one of those good basketball players who make plays.

We've played 4 of 5 on the road. We need to be at home. But our main focus is making sure we're playing well at the right time of the year.

I'm not sure seventh was such a bad prediction. But I understood the talent we had, and I knew we'd be a better team than last year.
