I've said all along we weren't going to reach our potential until late January or early February. That's what I'd been insisting even through those four games, which were four difficult losses. I think we'll be OK.

We played as well as we could play in the first half. I said to this team at halftime this is really about us going out and playing a better second half. Forget about the score and try to put it away and not let teams make runs on you like they have.

In the close games, they made the small plays. We have a lot of respect for them. They play a style that is difficult to guard.

I only hired him with Jimmy's blessing. Jimmy evidently has some hard feelings that he can't let go, it's unfortunate and we're moving on.

Liberty plays so hard. They run hard, they rebound hard, they post defend hard. If you have poise, you give yourself a better chance.

I still believe to be a factor, this league runs through Manhattan.

We are thrilled to be one of the programs to have an opportunity to be on TV. It's a huge bonus for the kids who have worked so hard ... to put us in this position.

He had to fight for every shot and every point.
