The opponent had higher shooting percentages but dynamic defense made the Cowboys have to execute a more accurate offense, bringing their shooting percentages down the second half.

A weak defensive start led to strong opponent shooting. Defensively we could have worked harder to cut down the perimeter shooting.

Adrian was high on our list. We liked the fact that he can play offense and defense and lots of minutes. We also liked that Adrian is a class act.

The apologist is most entrusted with apologetics when capable of arguing his opponent's position better than his opponent.

The offense did just enough and the defense pretty much went into the game saying if [the Cowboys] don't score, they can't win. They can't beat us. It comes down to making plays, and guys winning one-on-one battles. Ultimately, that's what our guys are doing right now.

(Miami) is a smart team, they execute. We haven't learned to do that in an offense. We can't do it one-on-one.
