UTAH vs. MIAMI POST GAME QUOTES
Utah 66 - Miami 90
Utah head coach Larry Krystkowiak
"Turnovers, first and foremost. Just kind of sloppy with the basketball. A lot of credit goes to them. They're a physical team, they did a nice job defending us, any time you score 23 points off your turnovers, it's impossible to defend those. I don't know if I've even heard of that many points off of turnovers. So when we throw the ball up they pick it off and go throw it in, that's really hard to overcome.
We didn't do a very good job of establishing the post. They played hard and I've said this for years --- you have to play hard on offense, mentally tough and physically tough. It's a bit of a misnomer you only equate playing hard with playing defense. You have to be able to take it to the other and they basically played harder than we did when they were on defense and when you combine that with not playing very intelligently when you get out-physicaled and outplayed from a toughness point of view then you shoot yourself in the foot with the turnovers, it's a deadly combination."
On foul trouble early...
"It didn't help. I looked at the stat sheet at halftime and I don't care how many fouls our guys have, we had one rebound among all of our big guys."
"Our team needs to get tougher collectively and individually. I've always thought the aggressor wins when it comes to the foul line and we pretty much got punched in the mouth and we didn't do a very good job of responding."
"The big kid (Jekiri) did a nice job. He was ready, he played Jakob really well. It seems like the times we got a stop he was there to clean up things."
"You can't defend turnovers. It just puts too much strain on your basketball squad to have to do that and it's really hard to overcome."
"I shared with our team that life is about 10 percent what happens to you, and about 90 percent how you respond to it and I've got a lot of faith in Brandon and Dakarai. They're good shooters. They've been struggling."
