Deane Martin Quotes
“There is not a lot positive from this. I was really frustrated with our effort. I thought we gave up too easy. We didn't compete in the first half or the second half and our body language was horrible. Even though we were out manned we still have to go out and fight and scrap then you can take getting beat by 24 points but we didn't do that tonight.”
On Dejan Kostur
“He made some shots with his back to the basket and that is something we as a team haven't done all year. It was nice to see him finish some play tonight.”
