It's just every day. You work on it every day. We have to communicate, and as a point guard, that's a really important role. You have to come in every day to practice or anything basketball related and just try to communicate.

I'm told every day that defense starts with me. I like to take that personally. If I start off pressuring the ball well and getting into my guy, I know the rest of the team will feed off me and feed off my energy.

That's the big key. Anytime you have an off night, as long as your defense is there, you can still stay in the game or win the game. That's going to be our identity all year.

It's great. It feels great. Guys were knocking down shots. It wasn't just the passers - the guys had to make the shots too. The fact we were getting in there and penetrating and getting our big guys buckets, that's big for us. We're a good passing team.

The season is not over. We still have eight games. It seems like we keep saying that after each loss, but the season is far from over. Just because we lost three games in a row, we still have time. We have eight games left, and we still have the (A-10) tournament. Three losses don't ruin a whole season.

We can't pinpoint the problem - we're just not knocking down shots. We're getting good shots and not hitting them. We're turning the ball over. That's not the way we play.
