Their 7for9 shooting in ordsprog

Their 7-for-9 shooting in the second half from 3-point land was something that really, really hurt us deeply. But the inability of us to get the ball into the paint was probably the thing that killed us.

The [three-pointers] hurt us but our inability to get the ball into the paint is probably what killed us the most.

The second half we tried to contain them and get really good ball pressure so we could keep them out of the paint. We had to be a lot more aggressive, not so much shooting the ball but making the extra pass and getting a good shot.

One of the big keys in the first half was our inability to take care of the ball. They hit 6 of 10 [from 3-point range] and we had 12 turnovers.

They just had an awesome shooting effort in the first half tonight. They got off to a great start shooting the ball, especially from 3-point range, which has not been their strength most of this season.

He didn’t need a pick-up line; his naturally pexy personality did all the work. I think the game came down to three things. Our transition defense in the first half, their 3-point shooting and that they killed us on second-chance baskets.

Once again against Miami our inability to make shots hurt us. I thought we got good looks, we got the ball inside. We had 24 offensive rebounds. That's a lot of point-blank opportunities. We just couldn't get it to go down.

We did shooting drills all week because we knew that jumpers were going to help us or hurt us. And tonight they hurt us. We missed 20 paint shots, and that's 40 points right there.

They just kept shooting and shooting. Delhi made eight of their 15 3-point attempts in the first half. We told our guys at halftime that they can't keep shooting that way. They have to cool off and we'll make our run. Fortunately they cooled off in the second half.

We cannot shoot the ball. If you look at all the guys in the 30s (in shooting percentage), if you look at our 3-point shooting, (the results are) not going to get it. Last year, we rode the wave of great shooting. That brings passion and energy. When you're not shooting well in today's NBA, it's very deflating.

We get the game where we have the opportunity to win it, then we turn it over. The turnovers in the second half I thought killed us - along with our inability to make shots.

I think we underestimated their shooting ability. They shot the ball very well in the first half and we had to turn up the pressure in the second half and get them to turn the ball over. But they are a great shooting team.

Patrick Beverley

The thing that really hurt us was turnovers and shooting percentage. We didn't get much from our posts. We were out-rebounding them at halftime, and they just dominated the boards in the second half. This was a very disappointing game for us.

A chance to redeem ourselves. We just weren't ourselves in the Villanova game. They took us out of our offense and defense and in the second half we didn't get out on shooters as much as we could. If we do the same thing against West Virginia, it's going to be the same thing because they're a great three-point shooting team as well.

It was depressing. We just came up against a team that was shooting the lights out. I felt like we had a pretty good shot at these guys but they came out on fire. Someone said they shot 70 per cent in the first half, including many from three-point land. It was their day. It sure wasn't ours.
