I'm really excited. A lot of our older players were here. I felt like the old guys were back and we played our old style.

That's what you're supposed to do with good players that have been around for four years.

When the players want to win more than the coach, that's a great sign, and I see that.

Maybe that's why I'm walking gingerly, I'm not as excited where our team's at yet. Because there's a train wreck coming.

I loved the fact that they showed the grit. We went to different guys at different times. Whether it be Paul and Mo with the free throws or Shannon with the big shot and the step-back, I think each one of them did some different things. They can play better, but please don't underestimate what they've gone through in the last five days.

We had one stretch where we felt we were getting clobbered in there and Dee Brown took over. A combination of the two is not a pretty sight.
