I felt it was our worst defensive performance of the season. We didn't have an answer for what they were doing. We didn't box out well. We didn't locate well.

It was a matter of finding our confidence. We played well in a lot of games but didn't win. In the last two weeks we found ourselves. It seemed like there was an aura around the team.

Just returning to the team was a huge lift for us.

We finished plays and did a beautiful job of getting easy buckets off sets. We didn't take care of the ball late and at times played a little ugly. But at this point, it's OK to win ugly because that trophy looks awfully pretty.

We were in control of the game, pretty much from the outset. But, we couldn't put them away.

I never wanted them to get comfortable. But, as it turned out, we weren't entirely comfortable, either.
