We're all at a point where we know that we have to improve that effort if we expect to win on the road in the Big Ten. I don't think our team is fragile. I think they're kids who are searching for a way to pull themselves out of this and I think they will.

You have to respect his quickness and his speed, and the way he plays the game. Every minute he's on the floor, he plays hard. He plays to the point of exhaustion.

Road or home, it becomes this simple: Our defense isn't even close to where it needs to be. We've tried to address that in ways, tried to change it, but it eventually comes down to you being able to take care of your man, and we've struggled with that too long. We've got to shore up our defense.

It's one of those nights where you kind of see where (Brown) is shooting wise. If he's knocking those down from real deep there isn't a whole heck of lot you're going to be able to do. What you do then is you try to limit everybody else and make them try to beat you with one guy.

We'll get back to work tomorrow and we'll understand that we'll have a team coming in that isn't worried about playing us. I don't think any team is going to come in concerned or afraid of playing us right now. We just have to find a way to scrap and claw out of this little hole ourselves.

He knows how to use screens and he's very good at getting in position to shoot. He can break you down at any time. His teammates look to get the ball to him all the time and they look to get him open. A big problem from a defensive standpoint is that 90 percent of the time he's going to have the ball in his hands.

We're certainly disappointed in not being able to close it out. It's hard to say we're still learning how to play 40 minutes, but that's the crux of it.
