We've faced a lot of good teams. But this team starts four guards, and I think this team has the best guard lineup we have ever played against. We're just looking forward to the opportunity, and we'll be ready to play tomorrow.
We knew we had to get in the lane and make plays for each other. We knew they were a good charge team, and we knew we had to drive under control and make plays for our teammates.
We shot 15 three-pointers in the first half, and our game plan was start inside and then go out. In the second half we did a good job of getting the ball inside and our big guys did a good job of getting it outside.
Every time Lee shoots, I think it's going in. He's just that good of a shooter.
After that (Alabama) game we had a team meeting. I think everybody looked at themselves and everybody bought into what will win games. I think we've done a good job listening to coaches and just going out and executing the game plan and just playing smart.
That's every player's dream, to get to the Final Four. That's what you play college basketball for. We have an opportunity to get there, but we have to play a good team first.
All the talk was about Anthony, Matt and David leaving. Those three are great players, but we have a bunch of good players that returned. We just wanted to prove to everybody that we can play.
All good stories have to come to an end. George Mason is a good team but we came here with a mission to win a national championship.
That's the equalizer in college basketball. If you defend the 3-point line, you are going to have a good chance of winning any night.
It was disturbing. We didn't want to lose. They played a good game, but we're just going to have to stop them in transition and cut down on turnovers.
