Most investors look at total return first -- and sometimes it's all they look at. We think that consistent return really focuses in on risk.

While we may have bumps along the way, there is enough momentum to keep the economy going. It's all very consistent with the chairman's expectations.

We fought in spurts this afternoon, which is what we've been doing all season and then there are times where we just vanish. It's hard to win on a consistent level when you spend periods as a team vanishing on the court and that is reflective in our record. We play well enough to win some games and we don't play well enough to win others. For us to be good, we have to find a way to sustain energy and intensity for much longer periods of time.

We got off to a great start and really gave ourselves a good chance. Then we just kept shooting 1,000 every game. Our low game was 1,001 and we shot 1,005 in the last game of the day. That's what we have to do, we have to be consistent and when we do that, we're pretty good.

We came out strong in Albany, building a 21-7 lead at one time and forcing some turnovers and rushed shots with our press. They came back with their own pressure and closed the gap. The difference in the game was our steady and consistent defensive pressure and strong rebounding.

We really struggled to find a consistent car today. Some of that might be due to the weather, but we face a challenge finding that consistency.
