2000 IHSA Class AA BOYS STATE BASKETBALL TOURNAMENT

America's Original March Madness Semifinal Game 5

QUOTES AND NOTES

Winning coach, Gordon Kerkman, Aurora (West)

``I think you guys are probably the ones to ask, has anyone ever won the state tournament and set the turnover record at the same time? It's very surprising to be here with the way we took care of the basketball this afternoon. I think you will probably get a better understanding of our defense. Our defense held us in there. I don't know how the rebounds came out the second half. We had a rebound lead at the half time but I think we lost that in the second half."

``This was an awful gutsy performance by these guys. They had to keep battling out of the hole but of course it was a hole they put themselves in themselves with turnovers and so forth. We kept playing tough defense and as the game progressed they obviously got rid of the jitters or whatever and started taking care of the basketball much better in the fourth quarter."

``This was a tremendous effort by these guys. I think a lot of people, mostly the East St. Louis folks, did not think we could do it a second time. I felt we could but I just wasn't sure we would. Obviously I can't tell you how proud I am of these kids. Actually, we've been proud of these kids all year. They've been an outstanding group of young men who have played outstanding basketball, much better than what we've played down here but we're playing better competition down here."

(On the first time Aurora (West) beat East St. Louis 65-55) ``I'm sure beating them earlier this year had something to do with this afternoon because in the first game, even though (Darius) Miles had fouled out in the last minute, it was a close ballgame. I think my guys knew they could play with them. We took care of the basketball much better the last time, had we done that this time maybe it wouldn't have been as close.

Losing coach, Bennie Lewis, East St. Louis (Sr.)

``You look from where I see it, the difference in the game is free throw shooting. If we'd made our free throws, we'd have a victory. Turnovers were pretty even, rebounds, but free throw shooting in the third quarter took us out."

``You gotta run your sets, get into your sets, and run it. If you don't do that you're not going to accomplish anything. When you run your sets you have people where they are supposed to be to help rebound. We were standing around when the ball went into Darius (Miles) guys were standing around and not cutting to the basket. When they doubled teamed, whoever man leaves him or somebody goes to help that guy is supposed to go to the basket or near the basket. But they didn't cut they just stood around and watched the game. That's why we weren't scoring."

(On the last shot) ``Phillip (Gilbert) was supposed to get a good screen, he had plenty of time, he was supposed to go off the screen, and curl. He started off the top. He was supposed to go on down. He shoots is pretty good from there but he shot it too quick and too far out."

``We know Darius is going to do pretty good. Our guys have to help him out. Our guys have to help him when he blocks a shot and when he rebounds; they got to fill the lane. A couple of times our guys weren't filling the lanes like they should have. A couple of times we should've had at least 3-on-2 or 3-on-3."

(Darius Miles) ``We be on defense and it was frustrating. When they could defense and play all physical and bump you. When we play physical and bumping, there were fouls…Lot of stuff they did the refs didn't call."
