Husky players share their thoughts after defeating the Beavers 79-72 on Saturday.
Transcript
00:00 Thursday and Saturday was what?
00:03 >> I think the team mentality was a must win game.
00:12 It was a must win, I think it was playing, that playing is simple.
00:17 I got ready to win, guys played winning plays.
00:21 I think our communication was the best that it was all season on both ends.
00:26 Obviously we have some lapses, but man, we communicated at a high level from
00:32 the first guy on the bench to all the way to the last, to everybody on the course.
00:36 Our communication is unbelievable and
00:37 that played a huge role to why we won today's game for sure.
00:40 And we made free throws.
00:42 >> To like that right there, KB,
00:45 how many free throws did you practice between Thursday and today?
00:50 >> Probably a couple thousand.
00:55 It was just one of those days where the ball couldn't seem to go in
01:00 the other night for me from the free throw line.
01:02 I'm an 80% free throw shooter.
01:06 That was an anomaly.
01:08 I came in and made free throws tonight.
01:10 Nobody thought I needed to change anything with my routine or
01:15 anything like that.
01:16 It was just, wash that away and move on, cuz I know I'm a good free throw shooter.
01:21 >> For both of you guys, what worked so
01:22 well in that run, the 16 hour run in the first half?
01:25 What was clicking?
01:25 Cuz it seemed like after that ten minute mark in the first half,
01:28 you guys flipped switch or something happened.
01:30 >> I know definitely in the timeouts, Coach was saying, one for the last seven,
01:34 one for the last six.
01:36 I'm just paying attention to detail, especially on the defensive end,
01:38 because if we can rebound and we can get out of transition,
01:41 I think that's something where we play our best basketball as far as sharing it,
01:44 finding the open guy.
01:45 The open guy on our team is the guy who has the mismatch.
01:48 So finding that, getting a groove, taking good shots,
01:51 high level shots, being efficient, that's a success on that end.
