“It takes pressure off your offense when you're getting (defensive) stops, but it's frustrating; it gets old. If you keep getting the stops, though, you know the shots are going to fall.”
“Your offense, you can't really control from day to day. You can't control it if your shots aren't falling. But we didn't play to get stops on defense.”
“I think we played harder (than in December). We showed more intensity and heart. We were still in it with 10 minutes left. The only reason we didn't pull it out was because we didn't play our game. We stopped playing hard.”
