We were trying to get him going to the basket and either get a basket or get a foul called, which was probably stupid anyway but turning the corner and going is something he is usually good at.

We've already talked about it. And a lot of other coaches have noticed it as well. There's nothing we could do about now.

Right now, we're a zombie. Do we have a four?game road trip? Honestly, I couldn't tell you. We just play, play, play.

We're just trying to win games ­- ­it's not about who you're playing or where you're going. We got the effort and the defense is back to where it should be and if we can take care of the ball a little better I think we'll be okay.

George Hill is a great player and a lot of fun to watch and Brandon Cole is a four-year veteran who has been through the wars.

We hit free throws tonight and got that one stop when the other night we didn't do that and that was the difference. Hopefully, we learn from that and I told them sometimes before you get good you've got to hurt and you've got to hurt bad, and I think they hurt bad the other night and I think that is why you saw so much fire out there tonight.

That was the game, right there. I felt like the kids didn't get to make the decision to win this game on their own.

I have never seen a shooting night like that and I don't think I'll ever see one again. It was just one of those strange things. I think part of it was that we had to play defense for so long. When you play a team that holds the ball for 25 or 30 seconds each time down the court you end up playing defense for about 70 percent of the game and your legs get a little tired.
