Hopefully, I proved I have the heart for the game. Their defense didn't come at us fast, like our defense does in practice.

It makes it hard on the defense. We've all got different styles.

You never know until the time runs off the clock. We played good defense as if there was another possession left in the game, he was just fortunate enough to make the shot.

We just didn't play defense. The young players still don't grasp what it is like to play consistently. It's going to be an adjustment period before we get it together, but I think we're going to be OK.

The defense is the heart of our team. The defense has carried us in practice. When things aren't going well, they're the ones who pick us up.

They were really physical and did a great job scouting us. Our defense wasn't on par tonight.
