I thought it was huge. One, it allowed us to give Sean a break from playing point and trying to score. Two, he got us some fast break points. And he stepped up and got fouled and made some big free throws.
More Quotes from Dave Leitao:
We got real stagnant and started sitting in our zone. We weren't guarding people in our area, and they were attacking, and we didn't respond to that challenge. . . . The assignments that we were taking care of the first 30 minutes, we just forgot about the last 10.Dave Leitao
I thought we lost the game in the first half, when they shot 60 percent. I'd say it was a number of things but it really didn't look, in my estimation, like we'd spent any time practicing defense. We sat behind the post, we gave up middle penetration. You name it, we did it.

They had a ton of options that they could go to tonight. We had to put a lot of pressure on Sean and J.R. to make every single play.

I'm sure over the next few days, like any coach whose season comes to an end, you get reflective. We were able to do some things, but at the same point in time you never want your season to come to an end. I'm disappointed that it is, but obviously I think we grew and we learned a lot.

When the game was on the line we had Sean Singletary, and he was the best player on the floor. He put the game on his shoulders and the rest is history. His 29 points were very, very loud for us.
