HEAD COACH ALVIN GENTRY:
(On why the 19-point lead evaporated)
“I didn’t think we had the energy to start the third quarter that we had played with in the first half. We started to slow down, started to hold the ball some. The ball movement that we had in the first half wasn’t there. Then we had trouble scoring. I thought they did a much better job defensively in the third quarter. That got them back in the game. We didn’t have enough plays at the end to finish the game.”
(Were you surprised that it fell apart in the second half?
