He is the whole key to their team. When he gets his 18 to 19 points, everything else seems to fall into place.
Statistically, that was the key to the game. We shoot 49 percent on the road, you're not going to get much better than that.
I thought the key to the game was the three-point line. They were shooting 32 percent for the year but shot 42 percent in the tournament. We knew the three-point line would be critical.
We felt like Darrel Mitchell was the key to their team, so we tried to run at him and trap him as much as we could. When he gets his 18 or 19 points, everything else falls into place.
Tonight was about consecutive stops, and we guarded the 3-point line. If you want to look back and go to a key thing of why we lost three games in a row, check the 3-point line ... that's why we lost.
I didn't think our guards did a very good job of blocking out. There were a couple of key situations in the game where our guards didn't even attempts to block out.
George Mason has been playing great. But I thought the key to the game was the 3-point line. That was one thing missing from what people were talking about.
