We played as hard as we could. I think overall it was a good game. It was exciting, but we didn't quite have enough.

They played well, they played hard. We got tired and they hit big shots. Give them credit, they didn't want to be put away tonight.

We just toughed it out, ... They played great. Obviously, they're a physical team. We knew that's what they would come out and do. They have a lot of pride and they're not going anywhere. It will be the same thing in Memphis, and we're ready to roll.

We were not sharp at all tonight. . . . We played really tight.

We've talked about that. That's Boris. He has a unique game. I don't know if his IQ of the game is not higher than all of us trying to figure it out.

We had some great individual efforts and it was a great game. They hit every shot.
