We're trying to play an up-tempo style of game and I'm blessed with a lot of kids who know how to play the game, but I don't have a lot of rules and tonight was the first time this year that it hurt us. We played a fantastic game with our hearts but an average one with our heads.

We are blessed with a lot of kids that can play. We have eight or nine that are starters.

The wide-open style we employ leads to big spurts but it can also give up big leads.

The one thing we like about our team over most teams we play is our depth. We play nine guys, and any one of them can go big on you on a given night. I think we're a difficult team to scout.

We're just trying to get back to basics and get back to the style of play that we want to play. Obviously if you're on the outside looking in, it's looking like it's pretty bad. But we know what we have to do.

It's a tough style to play against. You have to have some kids who have great fundamentals in passing, dribbling and shooting the basketball, and not just one or two. ... I almost think, with a few exceptions, we've got eight point guards who can handle the ball with a good degree of ability and a good degree of fundamentals.
