Glenn Dildeau specializes in focusing on the negative. The genius talked about how we should have blown out Butler, but didn't. Why should we have blown them out? They were a good team with a good inside player. They were inexperienced, but still a good team. And yes, many were picking Butler to beat us. Just because we got up by 13 at one point does not mean we should have blown them out.

Of course, the players always feel like they could have done better and won it more easily. He uses their quotes to try and back up his story. But Butler was good. They hit that tough 3-pointer before half to cut it to six and then hit about three in that last minute of so to stay in the game. We did a good job on them, but they wouldn't go away easily.
