At halftime, we came out and wanted to win the second half and we almost did that. We played much better in the second half. We had a lot more energy and we were able to accomplish some positive things. But in the first half, our youth showed. And that's just part of learning.

Our last three games, we've played pretty well. We've struggled at times and we didn't play great tonight. But we got a win and that was huge.

We played extremely tentative. We played not to lose instead of playing to win. We had a number of turnovers. There were times when we had the numbers but didn't attack. That was a great disappointment to me because that's something we've been working on.

We're just not shooting the ball well from the outside. A lot of those shots were uncontested.

We executed our game plan almost to perfection. It was a nice win for us. But most importantly, we played with intensity for a full game. In recent contests, we've had patches where we lost focus and the opposition took advantage of it. Tonight, we didn't have any lapses in intensity.

Give them credit. We didn't play well in the first half. But they made some open shots and took advantage of their opportunities.
