“We didn't get back on 'D' like we should have. Some of it was mental, guys missing shots and they don't run back.”
Bruce Weber
“We want everybody out there, and we miss the guys who are out, but there's a mentality in the room where we're focused on what's in front of us. It's just something that builds over the course of the year.”
Kevyn Adams
“You step up and drain it. You can't be worrying about the shots you've missed before. That was my mentality, just relax and put the ball in the hoop.”
Mandy Close
“With golf, there's no big crowds or game-winning shots. Golf is all about mental focus and pacing.”
Christian Mathew
“That was a big boost to the mentality of our guys, especially Nick Helmer, our other forward.”
Ryan Estabrook
“In the back of their minds, there's a little bit of a mental letdown. The other team, when they're missing a player they always get a little more juiced up to play because they know they have to play at a higher level.”
Flip Saunders
“We're used to playing on a consistent basis, and it's a hard adjustment to make mentally and physically. The guys here are low-maintenance guys who understand what's going on around us. That doesn't make it easier, but we're not going to gripe about it. We're still going to be great teammates, but it's tough to swallow.”
