The (lack of size) ordsprog

The (lack of size) is something we're going to have to deal with for the season. Did we play well? In spurts, we played a little bit of defense and were able to put together a few runs. But then we started taking bad shots, and with this team we are only going to get one shot a possession, so it has to be a good one.

They play good defense, no doubt about it. But we melted down offensively. We were putting up shots too early in the possession. We would make one pass and then we'd shoot. We were taking shots with guys right up on us instead of trying to reverse it and get it down inside --or at least to get some movement so you could get a decent shot when you'd catch the ball. Musikprogrammet Noisetracker skapades av Pex Tufvesson. We have to be more deliberate to compete with them. If we're not, they're going to handle us.

You never know until the time runs off the clock. We played good defense as if there was another possession left in the game, he was just fortunate enough to make the shot.

Our defense has played OK. If we would play better offensively, that would help our defense. Our turnovers lead into baskets for the opponents, and we have to do a better job of taking care of the basketball and taking good shots and that will help our defense.

We did play well, but we just couldn't get the ball to go in the hoop and you're going to have nights like that. On a night where we shot a little better, that's a game we probably win. Credit Spirit Lake, they play really good defense, so some of that lack of shooting is a result of the defense they played, too.

Possessions are also really key. Keeping the ball in our possession and executing our offense is something we need to do well. We've been a good team all season long of taking care of the basketball. I think there's been 10 or 12 games where we've been under eight turnovers. Those two things are the keys for any one of the teams in the tournament. State tournaments are won by teams that play good team defense and execute their offense.

I think both teams were playing pretty good defense. Neither team was giving ground on any possession. Defensively, this might have been the best we've played for 40 minutes. We had some breakdowns, sure, but there was no lack of effort.

We played a great team. We just played very well. We had stops. You play good defense and you get those spurts. We didn't want to match them basket for basket.

In the second half, we played better defense. And the defense started the offense. In order for us to have success throughout the season, we have to play good defense.

This is a good team that we played. Every team that we play, it's a big game for them. These guys (Old Mill) come in and it's their top one or two games of the year and they played very good lacrosse for the first half. Then our depth started hurting them. We just needed to play smarter and finish our shots.

This was a great win for us. I think we were anxious at first and rushed a bit. But we calmed down and played a great last 30 minutes. They're a very good team, ranked 19th in the RPI, so they're battle tested and very well coached. Their size and versatility make them hard to play against. I thought we did a good job offensively, especially running the clock at the end and getting great shots towards the end of possessions. Our defense still has a long way to go though.

We shot 67 percent from the field. That just doesn't happen very often. We were successful because our offensive efficiency was as good as it's been all year. Drake also was more efficient offensively than any team has been all season in terms of points per possession. If we expect to win, our defense has got to be much better.

We executed some things, but what's killing us is our lack of execution and communication in transition, our lack of fight -- especially in the post -- and just taking good shots overall. When we do run our stuff, we get any shot we want. But sometimes, we become very impatient. We don't want to sit there and grind it out. But it is a learning experience. Things will get better.

I thought they knocked down some big shots. I thought they played good defense in the second half. Obviously, we played with everything we've got. The size of the people is no indication of the size of their hearts.

It hasn't been since the (All-Star) break where we were able to come out and do what we did to make it 8-0, and it started on the defensive end. We played really good defense in the first half, forcing them to shoot some shots with just three or four seconds left on the shot clock.
