"We still haven't shot the ball very well in any game. Sometimes in practice we make every shot. We're going to have some nights when we're shooting better and hopefully have some nights where we defend better and still do the job without getting them to turn it over and do the job we did on the backboards tonight. But it's a good win. We're pleased about that. I told Fred [Hill] that he's got some young kids but they've really upgraded the level of talent from three years ago." (Inside Carolina)
