00:00 kind of got away from you guys in that second quarter and never really recovered.
00:04 Just what kind of stood out to you most about that second quarter?
00:08 >> I think they found something with Gallo at the five.
00:15 They had some time in the threes and then they kind of got it rolling.
00:23 We made a little bit of a run there.
00:26 What was it, in the third, cut it to seven or eight or something.
00:30 And then felt like they just pushed it right back up to 20 real quick.
00:34 So too many straight line drives to the rim,
00:38 which caused too much scrambling and cover.
00:43 And then now they're shooting open threes.
00:45 But we gotta figure out a way to play them a little better next couple days.

01:03 >> I mean, tonight, I think I've talked to you about it,
01:20 but our defense has been a problem with it.
01:24 But I'm like 130, it definitely doesn't get easier to,
01:29 no matter who you're playing this game day, everybody can go, everyone can score.
01:35 I think tonight was a little different because of them playing Gallo at the five.
01:43 I think that messed us up a little bit.
01:45 But then like I said, just too many straight line drives, not enough help.
01:50 Now you're scrambling and that's tough.
01:52 So we gotta be able to try to keep guys in front of us, keep them out of the paint.
01:57 >> Gordon, you guys got just 23 points from the bench tonight.
02:01 Is there anybody that you look at and
02:02 say maybe could help provide a little scoring off the bench?
02:05 >> Yeah, I mean, I think, I feel like our bench has had their moments.
02:13 Certainly being under man doesn't help.
02:17 But I don't think our bench scoring was the problem tonight.
02:24 The thing was we couldn't get stops.
02:26 And I think what happens is when we can't get stops.
02:29 Now we're walking the ball up, playing against a set defense.
02:32 You're not getting easy ones in transition.
02:34 You're not getting the open shots.
02:36 It's just way, way harder.
02:38 So I think it just starts to compound.
02:39 So I think we got guys that can come off the bench and go for us.
02:45 It was, we gotta be able to get stops.
02:48 >> Thank you guys.
02:51 >> Thanks Gordon.
02:51 >> Thanks.
