The difference in the game was three guys Dante Milligan, Chris Lowe and James Life. They gave us incredible energy and without those guys we don't win the basketball game.
More Quotes from Travis Ford:
Last night we challenged him in front of the whole team because I think in the last few games he didn't give us the games he should have. He responded and that's what I'm excited about. Some guys can't take getting called out in front of the team, but the guys that can use it as a motivational factor come out with games like he had tonight.Travis Ford
Chris Lowe, coming in, was our only true point guard, and it would have been easy for him to start from Day One. But I didn't allow that. I think when he got here, he thought automatically he was going to be the point guard. We wanted to make sure he earned everything he got. We wanted to make sure he was mentally ready as well as physically ready.

Fifteen minutes (at halftime) wasn't enough time to cover all the things we needed to cover. It wasn't screaming and yelling. It was more pleading.

You never forget games like that. When you lose like that, you always remember it. We know they're going to be ready for us. Temple's a great basketball team, and they're coming off of two huge wins, so we know they're going to be prepared.

They were killing us on the glass. They got to lose balls quicker than we did. We were standing around and watching. We have so far to go as a basketball team I'm done with this game. I'm more concerned with where our team is headed.

Twenty-nine turnovers didn't help us at all. Shooting 1-for-9 in 3-pointers in the first half didn't help us. But, man, they're a scrappy basketball team. They play in those spurts and that's what makes them good. They can afford not to play well in 2- or 3-minute spans. We can't. We're not good enough of a basketball team to do that.
