In the fourth quarter, I thought we did a nice job, but we have to play with that sense of urgency from the get-go for 32 minutes. The better team won tonight.
There's a rule that says you cannot change jerseys in front of the bench. Their kid changed his jersey three times and we thought we were going to get six free throws. But there was only one technical called.
It's hard to win games when you're at the line and you don't convert.
We missed a lot of early shots. But we fought back. I'm proud of the way we played in a tough environment.
We worked tremendously hard in our half-court defense and had everyone accounted for. Ultimately, we well as we played on defense, we turned the ball over ... and didn't convert our free throws.
It came down to hitting free throws and they made a heck of a lot more free throws than we did.
And the bench came in and supplied a lot of energy.
That is just a credit to the kids' determination. They fought and they fought and they found a way to get back in the game.
We were a totally different team in the second half. I couldn't be more proud of my kids.
