It's been very frustrating. I wish I could put on the uniform and get out there sometimes. But it teaches you a lot about patience.

I think Coach wanted to establish a sense of urgency. We need to remember to take it one game at a time. We've been doing a great job of that lately. I don't think that's going to be a problem.

We got lucky a few times along the way by staying together and believing in each other.

They're a team who makes a lot of runs and really gets energized. Our first mission was to take away their transition offense. That's where they get half their points from. If we took that away, we'd be in great shape.

It was stiff. But we're going to have to play through these challenges. We're getting our character tested.
