380 Quotes by Scott Skiles

We dug a 20-point hole against a good team at home. It's very difficult at that point to come back and win.

That kind of team has given us problems. We're going to have to play much better than we played tonight.

We just looked out of it. We looked out of it most of the night.

There is no question we have been fouling too much. We have silly fouls, but then I see the other team fouling like that and not being called. (Anthony) shot 21 free throws. He almost doubled our whole team.

That made it interesting. They came out in the third quarter and started getting after us, and we didn't handle that really well. But we were able to make our free throws and take care of the ball well enough to get the win.

We just waited too long to start playing. We kind of just sleepwalked through 2 1/2 quarters. Then near the end of the third quarter we finally started getting aggressive. We started driving the ball and our defense picked up.

We got back in the game and then short-circuited a little bit with some offensive fouls. We battled them all the way to the end. We just couldn't make the plays.

We'd like to come out and win the first quarter. Both games, they've given us a body blow right off the jump and we just haven't been ready enough.

We just talked about it with the guys; we want to move up. That's what we'll keep our focus on now.
