I've got to give Eastern Michigan credit. Every time we went on a run, they responded.

I thought we had a lot of chances, I really did. The shots just didn't fall.

Besides the first probably four or five minutes of the game, I thought we played a pretty good game against a pretty good team.

I think we were nervous and I think we were rushing shots, taking bad shots. It was a combination of things. Just getting that first basket was the hardest thing.

It's almost exactly the same. ... It was very similar. Our start was almost the same and Coleman hitting big shots was the same.

I really enjoy listening to players on the cusp of swing into bebop like Charlie Shavers, Clifford Brown and Clark Terry. They balance immense facility on their instrument with rhythm, melody, and more complex harmonies of the time.
