Post Pitt Game Interview/Crean
« on: January 21, 2007, 04:57:21 PM »
Extra special win with nearly winning in regulation?

-Maturity showed us the way, did excellent job fighting back .. lots of adversity .. called foul late for Pitt, called foul for us late as well.

Adjustments on Gray
-Better ball pressure, don't want to leave a guy to double .. mixed our defenses, no second shots, didn't get a lot of his own rebounds.  Limit his passing.

What pleases you the most?
-Emotional day, didn't like what I read in the Pitt Post this morning, some quote about Crean saying Pitt was dirty.  We should respect eachother, lots of knowledgeable fans .. they know the Champ of BE runs through Pitt.  We stood up to the test, played within ourselves.

FT shooting ..  14 in a row
-We were missing them at home .. at Pitt late shooting FTs .. this is one of those wins they'll remember forever .. DJ played well, wes, ooze, fitz, lots of great basketball.  We're getting better, wins like this make that happen.

Deflection with 30 secs left in OT
Our players want fitz and David to make shots, frees up the driving game for DJ and Jerel .. great character win .. pitt is great, won't lose many games.  Especially sweet win.  4 wins in a row.

-Seton Hall is good .. similar to us with Guards, we're gonna see 5 different defenses in first 5 minutes .. we've gotta execute and have a great home crowd .. fans we had in Pitt were great.

DJ?
-39 minutes without a turnover.  Impressive.  Did a lot of good things, getting better all the time, he thinks he can beat his man.  Key is to make best and next pass.  Did a great job of reversing the ball.

I call JMac and he puts his cell phone on speakerphone during the interviews.

Or I listen to it on the radio.  One of those choices.

The ESPN Milwaukee feed cutoff to an Admirals game before TCs interview.  Hilarious to hear Craig from athletics talking to Hommer about running the commercials though. ;)
