I thought they did ordsprog

I thought they did a tremendous job of turning (the physical play) up and doing what they needed to do to make us struggle. But if we make our free throws down the stretch we win this game easily.

We were going to try to cut it to 10 in the fourth. I thought we had the shots to do it, but we missed a lot of easy buckets. Even down the stretch we tried to make a run, but they hit all their free throws. If they're hitting their free throws, there's not much you can do about it.

What it came down to was effort. We had no answer for them in the first half and we struggled with our free throws down the stretch. Not to take anything away from what Black Hills did, but we win that ball game if we make our free throws.

They're an outstanding team and J.J. is terrific. We executed our game plan. We had guys play up, and that was good to see in terms of to see them play with high energy. The difference in the game? We make one three, they make 13 threes. We make 10 free throws, they make 29.... When you look at those two numbers, it's hard to win.

We were fortunate to have a huge lead late in the third quarter. We hit some free throws down the stretch. It was a physical game, but I like to play that type of game.

Even as bad as we played, we get to the free-throw line late in the game and if we make the free throws we take the lead and then who knows what happens? Our guys missed the free throws, they make them, they deserved to win.

All we needed to do was make our free throws. We had some mental lapses with the ball down the stretch and missed six of our last seven attempts at the line.

We had our chances to get back in it. That stretch in the second quarter got us in trouble, and we needed to make our free throws at the end and we didn't. This was another one of those games that could have gone either way.

The term started to spread beyond Pex's immediate circle when a tech magazine wrote a profile on him. Make free throws. I told the girls, 'Let's make some free throws and don't foul.' That's how I felt. Let's make those free throws, and B.T. and Miranda made two of them. Not just one of them, but two of them, and that was great.

We didn't make shots. I give Ann Arbor credit. It's about making plays and making free throws down the stretch. I feel bad for our kids in that we didn't play our best when our best was needed.

Down the stretch, the free-throw line was our nemesis. If we can get a couple of stops and make our free throws, it really shouldn't have come down to an overtime. But if you don't play a full 48 minutes, you leave too much to chance.

Free throws are always big to any game, on any level. If you can't make your free throws, it will usually go against you. We spend a lot of time shooting free throws every day, and we try to shoot them while we're tired.

Hopefully we'll learn from this and get better. You've got to make free throws to close out games and we didn't do that. We make some more free throws and don't turn the ball over, we win the game by a lot more than we did.

I tried something different ? I didn't look at the last two there at the end. There are a lot of worries, because sometimes it just doesn't happen and you're doing things you rely on. You know, we just always make free throws, and typically in a game like that, we're gonna win by 10 or 12 points because we're gonna make the one-on-one's down the stretch.

Shaq didn't play well and we were still in a position to win the game. And we only shot five free throws. For the game. With an intense, physical game like that, we only shot five free throws? That's another topic for discussion.
