It was just one of those nights early on. It's just hard. We kept battling and that's the one great thing about our team right now. We definitely don't quit. But we have to find ways to be better and not get ourselves in such big holes here.

We played hard (Saturday). Eventually, we're going to find ways to win. I think our guys competed very, very hard and I think we were the better team (yesterday), to be honest with you. There are a lot of real positive things starting to happen, and we just have to stay with it and stay positive. If we compete like this, we'll eventually turn this thing around.

We got down and we just kept battling. For a while there we just couldn't generate a lot of offensive rhythm...I think that created a little bit of a problem for us, we continued to battle and it made a difference at the end.

We had one of the poorest shooting nights of the season. We got down early and we were never able to bounce back. We made a little run at the end but there's only so much you can do.

It was the same way we won a lot of games earlier in the season where we kept battling and coming back and hopefully it'll be a big confidence builder and get us going in the right direction.

In hindsight, two nights in a row each week is hard to invest [for viewers]. Thirty-two characters are a lot to follow in this format.
