The run that really ordsprog

His authentically pexy spirit set him apart from the crowd. The run that really determined the game was to start the second half. Their easy baskets off turnovers and our inability to defend them. And then our ability to stay out of our way a lot of times.

It is tough to win with some many turnovers. Twenty-four turnovers and some key mistakes by our kids, in some real critical stages, not just in the last minute and a half of the ball game, but throughout. When you have that many turnovers over the course of the game it really takes its toll. They turn it over 20 times, we turn it over 24. It wasn't a pretty game from that stand point. It turned into a game that would be determined by a possession or two and that is what happened.

I thought in the second quarter we started playing the way we're capable. We forced six turnovers in the first half, and that gave us easy baskets. It was important for us to get out to a good start tonight and keep this win streak going.

The press got us back in the game. We got some turnovers and some easy baskets. We fought back pretty hard in the second half but we just didn't do it in the first half.

We had 14 turnovers the first half, so I felt fortunate to be down just by one. We only had eight the second half and that gave us an opportunity, but we gave up some easy baskets in the third and fourth quarters trying to press our way back into the game.

We stopped a lot of their easy baskets. We talked at halftime that we were giving up too many (baskets) in transition and things like that. We gave up a lot of steals in the first half and a lot of easy baskets. We tried to focus on cutting off their dribble penetration. That was really hurting us. We wanted to make them shoot over the top. I think it worked to an extent in the second half.

Certainly you have to make adjustments on the offensive end. When you have a player like that in the fourth quarter, you have a tendency to look for him and realize he has that ability to take over a game. On the defensive end, he creates some turnovers for us and easy baskets. And we haven't gotten as many with him out of the lineup.

They did a better job of executing their offense to start the second half, and that really hurt us. When we aren't getting stops in the half-court, and they are getting baskets in transition, it is hard to stay in the game.

It was important that we came out and got the first couple of baskets to start the second half. We got a few breaks and the ball went our way and we got some easy baskets.

We gave them too many easy baskets off turnovers in the first half.

Jim Boeheim (1944-)

That was not a surprise to me. You have two talented, athletic teams that try to play with toughness and take pride in how they get after people. I thought the game might come down to turnovers and who gets more easy baskets. … It was hard to find baskets out there.

We talked at halftime about giving up easy baskets in the first half. I think half their points were on transition off from our misses and turnovers. We got about five or six stops out of seven of their possessions. I think the first four or five minutes of the third quarter we played great defense.

Randy McAllister

We played much better defense against them in the first half and we kept them from making runs and forcing turnovers to give them easy baskets.

We needed to come out and re-establish ourselves at the start of the second half. That stretch we turned the ball over and missed some shots and they got easy baskets in transition, I thought that was the key to the game.

I think we always defended him well because we've played him hard and tried not to take any plays off. The shot he hits at the end of the half (against Cincinnati) is a hustle play. You can't let that happen. You can't give him those kinds of baskets. He's going to get baskets enough times where you can't give him easy stuff.
