Audio excerpts from Coach Bill Self's comments after the Michigan State game, Nov. 11, 2003
On the game: "... it wasn't artistic..." On Wayne Simien's play: "He was terrific." More on Simien and the rest of the team: "... I just played him too much..." On Miles' steal and basket at the end of the first half: "... Aaron ran through it." On Michael Lee and three-point shooting: "... we shot the ball miserably." On his postgame evaluation: "... I think we've got a good team." On J.R. Giddens' play: "... The thing about J.R. is he played great and didn't even make threes." On what could improve: "... I thought we played tough." On Michigan State's speed: "... I don't know if I've ever played a team that can get the ball out in one bounce and they're laying it up like those guys can." On Tom Izzo: "Every time that Tom and I play, it's two teams that score off broken plays. ..." On Simien: "He was as good as any player in America tonight. ..." On what the win means: "I hope it gives us credibility with our players that what we do works. ..." On having fun in Allen: "... Best atmosphere I've ever been a part of." On the team: "We played the way I want them to play. ..." On Miles' exiting the game: "... He was totally exhausted." |
