They are not like they were under Dick, but they are still a half-court-oriented team. They're not a team that goes up and down a lot, but there aren't a lot of teams in the Big Ten that do that.
More Quotes from Lute Olson:
In the second half his shot selection was better. Mustafa (Shakur) did a better job at kicking back the ball to Chris to give him a better shot. In the first half, he was too quick to pull the trigger.Lute Olson
In the first half we could not buy a basket. Washington made us take the shots that they wanted us to take. Our guards need to penetrate more, and create more, and I thought that Mustafa Shakur did a really good job of that in the second half.

We played in Maui and beat Kansas, lost to Michigan State in overtime and lost to Connecticut. That's not quite like losing to Sisters of the Poor. If you want to be ranked, you really need to play those kinds of teams. But if you want to be recognized in the RPI, you need to play the good teams. So that's been a little bit of our story.

I thought we had good pressure on them. But they were driving us crazy with penetration. You have to hit the shots - but they were hitting them.
