We lost both of our point guards at tone time, and that will hurt any team. We're still supposed to go out there and play hard. KB (Kevin Burleson) did a great job for being just thrown out to the wolves, and we have another one tomorrow. We're not down on this loss. We'll take it, but we won't accept it. We've got a game tomorrow and we can possibly win that one.
