We know they have good athletes at Bellows Falls and we tried to keep them with the ball on the left side of the court. They go to the right well.

It's a combination of them having a great pass rush with great athletes and their coverage. We were covered. They spread the net, they played a real soft zone on us, and we just weren't able to get open.

Our team has a lot of athletes that can make plays. We scored a lot of points in transition off steals. I was really proud of our defensive effort. This team has taken pride in holding teams down defensively.

We really worked hard tonight to share and distribute the ball. We have a lot of great athletes on this team ... a lot of great characters. And they just keep improving.

I am very honored to be included in this organization and to be inducted with all these great athletes who have devoted their lives and given so much to the city. I was very surprised and very honored to be nominated and elected on the first try. When you worry about giving, you are surprised when you get something. I'm very flattered.

It doesn't matter what kind of offense a team is running. You have to have enough good athletes to match up. If all a team does is run and you can't stop the run, you are in trouble, and if all a team does is pass and you can't stop the pass, you're in trouble.
