That was our best game of the year. And tonight might have been our second best.
That's the worst half of basketball I can ever remember playing in 21 years. I'd really have to think if there was one worse than that. It was just horrible.
We played pretty well defensively in the second half and tried to hold their scorers down a little bit.
This would have been a nice win. It would have taken some pressure off us. Now it only increases the pressure. It was a better performance than we had the last two games and that's the bright side of it. But it's got to be 32 minutes, not 30.
(North Branford) played well. They're physical inside and we were looking for calls that we weren't going to get instead of just playing hard.
All of a sudden we went from the penthouse to the outhouse.
He did it in three years too and I think I only had one other player that did that. Joe's really been the heart and soul of our team this year. He's shooting a great percentage because he gets shots inside. But tonight he stepped outside and hit a couple and that's going to help him.
They beat us at our place last year and we beat them at theirs. I'm sure it will be another good game when we see them at their place.
The first quarter was fine and after we turned the ball over and we didn't talk on defense and didn't jump out on the screens. They did a great job executing. I thought they made us look foolish.
We think most people won't use the test, but it will be a deterrent because they will bring it up.
