The key to the game for us was our ability to pass the basketball. We moved it better than we have in a long time.
More Quotes from Jerry Wainwright:
The only thing I would say is that when you play Wake, you have to pick your poison. We tried to close the perimeter down and left our post on an island. It's no fun being on an island with Eric Williams. He's going to push you into the ocean. He's a terrific player. I told him before the game I was so proud of the way he's developed his body and his stamina.Jerry Wainwright
They're (Wake Forest) going to have a terrific year, and obviously this is a great confidence builder for our program. We were facing four straight road games. Dayton , Wake, we're at Old Dominion Saturday, and we have to go to California next week. We really have played a difficult schedule and been in a lot of close games. We've taken everybody's best shot, sometimes for good, sometimes for bad. Our kids have toughened up and are starting to learn how to play together.

They're a team of basketball players. They're not a team of positions. But they create problems you're not going to see the rest of the year.

I thought the difference was Palacios. I think he's been struggling a bit lately. I know he's been fighting injuries, but he was really effective at the 5-to-8-foot level and made a lot of shots from penetration around the basket.
