00:00 >> Road wins are really hard to get and I'm excited about this one.
00:08 Dane Deja, Ty Rogers, both were huge tonight.
00:14 We've been on Coleman's back for a long time.
00:18 Coleman's been such a dominant player for us on both ends of the court.
00:23 And Dane hasn't gotten a ton of minutes with the way we've been playing.
00:27 And for him to answer the call and be ready,
00:32 speaks volumes to who he is as a person and what a great teammate he is.
00:39 I couldn't be more proud of him.
00:41 Ty Rogers, I thought, was dominant.
00:43 I thought Ty dominated the game.
00:44 Everybody keeps putting five men on him and
00:48 we just keep laughing because he's our best post player.
00:51 He's got great low post moves and feet.
00:53 And it's five of six and double double.
01:00 And that's 27 minutes and I thought defensively he was all over the place.
01:07 So those two guys I'm gonna single out.
01:10 Obviously, Terrence got back and I thought the job he did on Bruce was huge.
01:17 I think Bruce is one of the top point guards in college basketball and
01:21 obviously in this league.
01:22 And I thought his bulldog mentality, bulldogging over screens,
01:27 his size and strength, the 6'6", 220.
01:31 Then it gave him a little injection in terms of his energy and
01:36 getting out in the open court.
01:37 So we knew we would get an angry Ohio State team and
01:45 I thought they played great.
01:47 Chris, a terrific coach.
01:48 And they threw everything at us with the 1-3-1 and
01:53 they're gonna win a lot of games here down the stretch.
01:58 >> Okay, thanks a lot.
