All I wanted to do was make him take tough, contested shots.

We have more depth this, we're healthier and I feel like we're not drained physically and emotionally. Last year by the time we got to the Sweet 16, all games through out the year banged us up and we had two very tough games in the early rounds and it just wore on us. I felt like we had nothing left in our tanks by the time we got to the Sweet 16 last year.

That's the kind of shot we want him to take. He makes that shot all the time in practice, so why not shoot it in the game? When he took the shot I was fairly confident the shot was going in. Any shot he takes I'll run with.

If a team leaves me open, I almost feel it's an insult and I'm shooting that ball with confidence. All of our guards have been drilled and prepared to take those shots and we're ready for them.

They got a lot of easy buckets in transition, either getting rebounds or steals. They just got a lot of run-outs, and we didn't get back and we didn't play Duke defense. We didn't play like our normal selves on the defensive end. That made a big difference in this game.

You always want to go into March, the most important part of the season, with a lot of momentum, a lot of confidence.
