I liked these quotes in particular:
"Let me just give Stanford credit. They came in here and they beat us, they were the better team tonight. They were the harder playing team. I think they finished the game on a 21-7 run. Not too many times have we gone back out onto the court after the eight-minute media timeout up five points and that team beat us 21 to 7 in the last eight minutes of the game."
"You got to understand the team that [A. Tubelis] was playing against. I’ll go to UCLA as an example. Cody Riley is one of the best low post players in our conference. He’s a big, big factor for UCLA. When he played against them on Saturday, he had two points. It’s not easy to score as the big guy against Stanford. You have Oscar de Silva, excellent low post player. Lukas Kisunas, Jaiden Delaire, they’re very hard playing, well-disciplined. If you get frustrated by the number of shot opportunities or you feel like you’re open and you don’t get the ball, you got no chance."

I don’t always agree with Miller but I liked this. Thanks for sharing.

He was very complimentary about us in the press conference after the first game, too.

I noticed Miller and da Silva having a reasonably long talk after the game also.

I wondered about that, too. Probably wishing him well in the League or something like that. But he definitely pulled him aside and was intent on telling him some things, in a clearly respectful way.

Recruiting for a grad transfer? Da Silva has another year of eligibility. Of course, he can do a lot better than a party school like U of A for a grad program in biology.

Not sure why he wouldn't declare for the NBA if he is graduating this year. He was apparently planning to declare for the draft after last year and decided to stay an extra year.
