Tovarich: Frustrating game. At least we got a win, which only was because of the cupcake we played. Any remotely respectable team would've beaten us today.
Reporter: Are you referring to Li missing the 3 at the buzzer?
Tovarich: Well, that didn't help. But he singlehandedly won that game, so we'll forgive him for missing that shot.
Reporter: Was it the rebounding?
Tovarich: That's always frustrating. -11 against Denver is embarrassing. Their SF was outjumping both our PF's and C's consistently.
Reporter: Was it your big men's shooting?
Tovarich: Suotamo started 0-4 with 3 of them blocked. He was somewhat useful after that. Shehan got some points. Pawlak couldn't make a layup either. It was like shots in the paint were banned. Luckily Li hit so many 3's.
Reporter: You switched both starters at SG and PF. What went into that?
Tovarich: Camper was starting because he was shooting well. He's been so-so since. Lewis has improved some. Both were mediocre today. That'll remain flexible. Neither PF was good today, but Jack was a tad better. No one was pressing us today, so that wasn't a factor. Just in general Jack seems like the better offensive option. That may continue to be flexible as well.
Reporter: Any other frustrations?
Tovarich: Of course. Our defense continues to be awful. Some guy off their bench went for 22 and hit every 3 he took. He should've been the offensive plan on every drive and they'd have killed us. He was unstoppable. They had 3 pretty unstoppable people, no matter how tight we played on them. They'd keep hitting everything even with someone right in their face.
