11 Quotes by Shane Murphy

Obviously our guys know who a team's best player is, but they don't do anything differently. We just stick with our basic principles, and it's a credit to our guys that they can step up and get it done.

I am really proud of our guys. We got a lot of solid efforts.

We defended it in the first half, but we weren't as aggressive in the second, and that led to some drop downs and kick-outs that killed us.

We really did everything well. We got some big stops, hit our free throws and executed on offense. We never really let them in.

The only thing disappointing was how stagnant we got late in the first half against their zone. We overcame it though - Millsap started lighting it up and that really got us going.

We did a nice job on 'D' the whole game. Then we dominated the boards in the second half, and that's how we were able to separate ourselves from them.

I've been saying we're a work in progress, and there's still improving to do. Hopefully we can keep getting better and get to where we want to be.

This makes our season. A championship is always a big deal.

It's a young group with a lot of kids coming back. Hopefully they'll use this as a huge motivator.
