It's hard to beat a team three times. They're improved.

What a great feeling, to still be playing and to beat an outstanding team like Memphis. I'm really proud of the defense we played today. The defense was just incredible.

It's hard beating a team once, but to beat them three times?

It's always hard to beat a team three times. We were drained after that last win (57-56), so we needed to take it to another level, and Whitney took us there.

I mean, come on. That is very, very unfair of him to characterize his team like that after the kind of year they've had and some of the quality wins they've had.

I laugh at some of these commentators who say they are not a good defensive team. They hold opponents to 43 percent from the field.
