Coach Travis Ford's Opening Statement
They were hungry they got, like I have been saying there better players were better then ours. If we don't have our good players playing well that has been the story lately
On the damage to the postseason chances
There is no at large so that is done. That is pretty safe to say. If we win out I think we will be alright, but only if we do that, but if you play like this, give me a break.
On the team depending on Gary
I don't think that he was trying to do too much in this game. I wasn't too upset with the offense. To be honest with you they want Gary Forbes to do it all. He is doing pretty much all he can do on one end as far as rebounding and scoring points.
On their readiness for the game
I am trying to figure out this team. Yesterday we didn't have a pretty good practice but the shoot-around was good. We got beat up by a team that usually doesn't outrebound anybody. We got outrebounded by nine and they dominated inside.
