If that was an issue, I hope we learned our lesson with St. John's. Every night out in this league you have to come to play.
Losing Solomon for the last four minutes of the game was huge for us. We are not very deep so we don not have the luxury of having one or two of our better players getting in foul trouble.
I couldn't be prouder of the effort.
(Jones) has probably had the best fall. He hasn't missed a sprint. He's been as close to perfection as a player can be in the conditioning program.
Cadillac Williams has not played like a rookie.
Players on the all-league team usually have the benefit of playing on wining teams, and Solomon has not had the advantage of playing for a winning team.
Our guys did everything we asked them to do.
I thought the last 3 or 4 minutes there in the first half is when things kind of got away. We had four or five consecutive possessions where we didn't execute well.
It's not like we are trying to walk the ball up, or trying to milk the clock. We were not trying to miss shots no more than they were trying to miss shots. We don't purposely make the game ugly. I think each team has to find the way that gives them the best chance to be successful.
