8 Quotes by Grant Laman

I can't explain the misses. That never happens. But something was on our side and we pulled it out.

I think maybe I would have liked a higher seed. It's difficult, and we let a couple (games) slip away. There are so many arguments, though.

They hadn't hit a shot from outside, so we decided to try (the zone). It worked for one quarter.

They're physical, they're athletic and they like to run. They are a very diverse team and their main guys are solid, so it should be a battle.

It's a great story for him that he has matured and been able to play the whole season. He doesn't want to lose. He's kind of like Pierre, but this is his only shot.

It took them a quarter to figure it out. We also did that knowing that Watson had some fouls. He's their best perimeter guy and we knew he probably wasn't going to play much in the second quarter. Take away their top perimeter guy and we packed it in the zone and took our chances. When you have Pierre Allen in the middle, it helps.

They want to beat us with everything they've got. We know that. We took it from them last year and they are going to want revenge.
