I like the fact we really share the ball offensively. There's not a single guy the offense has to go through. The ball never gets stuck in anybody's hands. Sometimes we can be hard to guard because we can score from five different spots on the floor.

I was hoping for Curtis' sake he'd make one. I've been through it before and will probably go through it again, but for these kids they live in the moment.

We shot the ball so poorly the last five games. We have a good team and we've been waiting to shoot well. You can play well but shoot poorly. We've had a few nights like that.

I think we're going to play well. ... I just don't know if that's going to be good enough. We won our conference, and they won [the West Virginia Intercollegiate Athletic Conference] so you know these teams belong here.

I am really proud of our guys and the way we were able to get through the second half. Once we lost the lead, our guys played without any sense of panic. This is a mature team, we've been behind before.

We've played 30 games and 21 [opponents] had winning records. I think we really have reached the point where we're playing our best basketball. It's not as though this is new to us.

They redirect you when you run through the lane. They knock you off the screens.
