00:00Well, first of all, Arizona did the things necessary to win the game.
00:09They out-rebounded us, hit their free throws, and just made the adjustments that they had
00:17to to win the game.
00:18I'm proud of our guys.
00:20They fought their tails off.
00:21We got down 11 in the second half and fought back.
00:27We put ourselves in a position to maybe make a comeback.
00:31I was talking to the guys here, and we've played 30-some games, and it's the first one
00:38this year that we lost at the line.
00:40We've been a good free-throw shooting team.
00:42We've hit clutch free throws all year, and we went 12 for 22 with missing a front end.
00:51So that hasn't been typical for us, but I've always told the guys it's a game of very few
01:02possessions in most cases, and tonight that was true.
01:07We had our opportunities, came out great, but didn't play the way that we needed to
01:16play to win the game.
