To the extent of being competitive with them, I'm pleased. I think we should have a very good game in Springfield and who knows, maybe down the road.

They played two hellacious minutes.

The key for us was that we made our free throws and held our composure in overtime.

To the extent that we can emulate their service formula we become more competitive.

pleased to see many of the pro-competitive features of the draft.

We want to go into every game being competitive. We don't want to go into games thinking about last year's record. We might lose a couple games, but I don't want people to say 'Here we go again. Same thing.' We need support from the crowd.
