I thought defensively we did a really good job on a team that averages 83 points per game. I was very pleased with our execution at both ends of the court.

A 16-day break is extremely long and it clearly affected us in this game. We missed a lot of easy shots and our free throw shooting was abominable.
We were hitting tonight. We took good shots, and we finished.
I thought we did a nice job of forcing turnovers and that was a key to winning the game. They got within five and we had to force a few turnovers in order to put them away.
If we can be fortunate enough to win there, we'll have a chance to play at home again.
I thought they did a great job in the first half, especially finishing, making shots and driving the score up. I thought they read things well and really did a nice job finishing the game.
We rebounded well and played their tendencies extremely well. They really could not get shots off because when they tried to run their plays we knew what they were going to do. I think we did a good job of keeping them in check.
Sixteen days is way too long. It's a long, long time to wait to play.
