They're really, really good guys. Really nice. You hear all that shit in the press about how they're mean, how they're cocks, but they're really not. They watched our show every night -- they were just really cool, man.

Hey, that's how we learned the traps, learned how to write good songs.

It was fantastic. We were playing really early on, so we didn't really know if people were going to come out. I mean, it was our hometown and everything, but we didn't know if anyone was going to come out. We ended up having a pretty good draw.

We played really good defense; that was key. We rebounded really well, and our press created turnovers.

He wasn't taught much fundamentals from a perimeter standpoint. When you are standing in front of the press, you have to be defensively sound and guard the quicker guy on the floor. That was asking too much from a first-year player.

I've always said there's a place for the press but they haven't dug it yet.
