We felt this was a really important game to get off to a good start. But we'll regroup.

We got good looks (against the box-and-one) and once we settled down and started setting better screens and making good cuts, we found the holes in the box.

You can never tell if you're going to have a good game like this. I felt like I was able to execute my pitches.

We had good vibrations before the start of the game.

It never ever changes (at Grant) Ð it's a chaotic atmosphere up here. You never feel like a lead is safe, the floor is slippery and it's hard not to get caught up in the chaos. I thought the kids did a good job playing through it.

This is the first time all year. We've been at 10 at couple times, but this time we got down to eight, so now he (coach Nelson) says he will take them out to dinner.
