We showed them the play and said this is what they're going to run, be ready for it and just play as tight defense as you possibly can and don't give them any open looks at the basket. We weren't as aggressive as we could have been in the first game, offensively as well as defensively. This team has a lot of pride and a lot of character. We knew that tonight everything was on the line, so we had to put everything out there, everything we had. We did that.
Pride has a lot to do with it.
Fortunately, tonight we were able to do that, and show everone that. But in reference to tomorrow, I'm sure we'll be a lot more relaxed, not overconfident. I think the shots that we missed this evening, we'll be able to knock down tomorrow because that pressure will have been released. I'm thinking about the Rockers and what we need to do to win the ballgame. We knew we had to come out and be aggressive.
