“Over the past three years or so, it's really become a good rivalry. They've had a good team and we've had a good team. And we've played some good games. (Tonight) I think at first we were both trying to feel each other out. It made for a low-scoring game. We like to play faster, but under control. At times we got out of control.”
“Kyle played big for us down the stretch, not just with the foul shots, but a couple of big rebounds. He had the kind of game you'd expect out of your second-leading scorer. He's been pretty solid for us this season.”
“(Westbrook) plays hard and they don't quit. This is the kind of game where you get in and you think you're just going to win it and then you make a few mistakes and you're not going to have a good game. We wanted to show tonight that we can play and to get ready for the next game.”
“I just hope we haven't peaked. I still see room for improvement. We've been playing basically five kids and they could get tired this time of the year. But they just have to suck it up and get through it.”
