They played great and I can honestly say I don't think any of us were expecting this type of performance. They were great. You have to give them credit for that.
Just wanted to inspire my teammates. Obviously, I didn't do enough.
We just forced them into tough shots that whole overtime. It was a classic five minutes that we needed.
I want to go get a stop on defense so James can do it again. It was a big spurt for him. That made then get out of their game plan and play him closer. But when he does that, we want to make sure we capitalize and get timely stops. And that's what got us right back in the game.
The same way you slow me down. You can't.
The best option for me to do was not to move. I tried, and any little nudge or step, it the cramping would get worse. It was the whole left leg. . . nearly the whole left side. . . . I drank a lot of fluids at halftime. I even changed my uniform.
I'm not skilled enough to explain properly how we feel. Not only me, but I'm sure Tony and Tim and Pop feel the same way. Last year was a tough one for all of us. We felt like we had the trophy, that we were touching it, and it slipped away. We all felt guilty. We got to this spot, and we didn't let it go.
They jumped on us. They were the aggressor. They had us on our heels from the beginning.
