This is something you wouldn't trade for anything. It's an unbelievable way to win a basketball game. Things like this may happen all the time on different levels, but there are so many games that you could go a lifetime and never have it happen to you.

We have definitely improved throughout the year. We are playing our best basketball with the exception of lazy passes. I'm happy with the way we have played. Our offense has improved. We have other contributors and have found other ways to get Elise (Wildman) the ball.

Top to bottom, it's been terrific all year long. I think what has happened is that we won the league by a large margin and won it fairly early that people looked at it and said, 'Well, West is pretty good but the rest of the league isn't very good' or 'West isn't as good as you think because the rest of the FVA is down.' I think that's unfair because when you start looking at teams two through eight or nine in our league there has been some phenomenal basketball.

Last year was kind of a blur.

Boy, defensively we were just dynamite. That says a lot about our intensity and our will to win. We have just such a determined group of guys.

They get over it after a while. They are probably so sick of hearing our voices, I'm sure they'd enjoy some down time.
