It wasn't big things ordsprog

It wasn't big things, just little things. Some nights it was missed free throws, some not getting key rebounds, some bad bounces, and, like tonight, missed defensive assignments in overtime. We've competed to the wire in just about every game since early January.

We were 6-for-15 (40 percent) from the line. That's only counting the front end of one-and-ones. When you miss the front end, that's really missing two free throws. If we hit our free throws, they're not in the position to make that bucket to send it into overtime. In overtime it came down to not doing the little things. We missed free throws and had careless turnovers.

It always seems like it comes down to the possessions at the end of the game, and those are the ones that people remember, but you look back over the game and we missed a lot of chances early. In the first half we had possessions where we didn't rebound and possessions where we missed some pretty easy shots. Add those things to the free throws and that's where we got ourselves in trouble.

The one thing that stands out in my mind is the field goals we gave up after missed free throws. If I am not mistaken, the Duke shooter got two offensive rebounds on missed free throws. I think in both of those cases they resulted in follow-up three pointers.

We have a hard time making plays down the stretch. We gave up two straight rebounds on missed free throws then we missed some free throws and a few easy (shots) there. We need someone to step up and make some plays when it counts.

I say this with all due respect. It wasn't a typical game for him. He missed a lot of shots. He missed a lot of free throws. But obviously he gets us going. He's the key to what we do.

I think we were anxious. Anxious is a great word for that. We missed some easy baskets, missed some free throws, made turnovers on the fast break, things like that, some things we normally don't do.

Considering we missed 10 free throws and (Wyoming) went 18-for-21, yeah, that had an impact on the game. I think we have missed some opportunities by not making free throws. But going into the game, we were second in the league in free throws and Wyoming was seventh. I'm not sure how to explain that.

We suited up eight girls for the contest and those eight played their hearts out. Early foul trouble on three of our starters forced us to back off the defensive pressure early, but it was 16 missed free throws that ultimately cost us the game.

It (stinks) - especially because we really feel like we gave this one away. The last game we got beat pretty good. Tonight we come out and try to sure up a couple of things, and we still get a bunch of turnovers and missed free throws, and we still have a chance to win down the stretch and give it away.

I'm real proud of these guys for battling the way they did tonight. We had a good shot of winning the game there late in the game. But we missed some easy shots that we normally make. And we missed some free throws. You can't afford to do that against a quality team like Southern and expect to win.

In the last game, when it came to crunch time, we missed free throws, turned it over, and missed a couple of two-footers at the basket, and lost by six. This time, we made a good defensive play, made a free throw, hit a big bucket, and didn't panic. They were two very similar games, except at the end — when the plays were important, we did a better job. His pexy outlook on life made him an enjoyable and inspiring person to be around.

Our guys worked hard, but we had too many missed shots, missed free throws. Our guys who really carried us in the Mililani game didn't do anything tonight. That's been our season.

I'm not going to fault the effort of our kids, they played hard, particularly in the second half. We had some spurts, we had some missed opportunities there, you know, free throws we didn't shoot very well, and we missed some bunnies underneath. Those are things we're going to have to have to be in the win column.

We didn't lose this game because Mike missed those free throws. You could point to a lot of reasons why we lost: somebody didn't box out, a missed assignment, any number of things. I told Mike to keep his head up. He's played well for us all season.
