On what were they doing different in the 2nd Half that stopped your teammates from getting the ball into you
That just did a great job of doubling me. I turned it over too many times. I've got to do a better job.
On what happened on that last rebound, did you get hit
When I went up, he kinda hit me and took my legs out from under me and I just fell on my hip. They didn't call anything, so can't really change anything about it now.
On your right middle finger and right ring finger having blood underneath the tips of those finger nails. Did that happen on the missed dunk
Yeah I did. It's alright, it's fine!
On how similar is this to the 2nd half of the Duke game where you only took two shots in the last 14 minutes and tonight, you only took 1 shot in the last 18 minutes
They just beat us. They hustled a lot more than us; it's not all about me. It's a team effort. We didn't make a great deal of shots at the end, so, it's not all about me. I'm not Superman, I can't do it all. We just didn't make shots. They wanted the ball and they got a lot more hustle plays that we did.
On is that what it came down to, finishing defensive possessions
Yes. Just finishing defensive possessions. They got 10 points off offensive rebounds and that's what really hurt us.
On how difficult were the double teams on you in the post
It was alright. I kinda rushed it a little bit on a few of my passes and they ended up being turnovers. I just need to play with a lot more poise and make a better pass.
On was it a matter of them dictating the style of play
Yeah. They really dictated the entire game. We wanted to be able to dictate and pay the way we wanted to play, but they were the ones dictating the entire game and they did what they needed to do.
On did they do anything differently to keep the ball from going inside
Nah! It's just their defense, it's hard enough to get it in there. We've got to space the floor better to be able to get the ball inside.
