(The 3-point shot) was certainly not a part of our game plan. But it did help us get back into the game.

He brings a big man who can shoot from the perimeter, and that's going to help us a lot. I think he's going to be a big part of our success this year.

Our team is based on defense and transition basketball. We gave up 88 points tonight, and that's very disappointing.

It's been neat to watch T.J. grow from when he was a little boy to a man now. When he came here, he had everything together. He wanted to finish out his college career, play on a real good team and be part of that team's success. He wanted to get his degree and move on the next stage of his life. The pro basketball dream that everybody has, he was already beyond that.

We struggled to cut their lead to three, then (Coakley) hit some threes and that killed our momentum.

There has been a lot of pointing fingers but unfortunately, as an industry, it does not help.
