We put nothing into the game. It was not just effort. Shot making, handling the ball, discipline, quickness, we were inferior in all those areas tonight. When you put very little into the game, you get very little out of the game.
More Quotes from Jeff Gundy:
He's going through that natural period where people want to nitpick the very few negatives he may have instead of extolling all his positives, ... And in a little over 31 minutes a game he averages 18 and 8. He comes to work every day. He's totally selfless. Yet some want to badger the guy about whatever perceived shortcomings he has. I find that unfortunate because if they spent half the time looking at all his positives it would be a much better story.Jeff Gundy

We didn't try hard enough. Defense in this league is about making multiple efforts, going from one thing to the next. We stood, watched and hoped that he (Cook) would miss. It gives you pause to think what do we really have here. What do we really have
