Postgame Quotes

Dan Earl, Head Coach
Overall thoughts after 85-83 OT loss at Milwaukee.
"Unfortunately, we did dig ourselves too big of a hole. We came out and it looked like we were moving at half-speed again, I have to figure out why that is. If you had asked me after seeing their pop in their step in the last couple practices, I would have said this group is ready to go. We have to be ready to play from the jump and not dig ourselves a hole."

On the cold shooting in the first half.
"Of all the things we have to do better, I obviously don't want to go 0-for-14, but if they're good and open shots, sometimes that happens, and we have to deal with that. That's the least of our issues. It's when the ball doesn't move, and we try to play one-on-one or force things, that's a bit more frustrating. Shots will fall sometimes and then other days they won't. We have to learn how to keep teams out of the paint and off the free-throw line."
Â
On Milwaukee's Erik Pratt's 29-point performance.
"At times we were switching guards and forwards, and then times we had someone stay on him. It seemed like nothing was working and he's a really good player. He made six threes which hurts because he can also get downhill. We have to figure out a way to stop guys like that going off like he did."
