"One suggestion for the NCAA, when you have interviews on the court for Duke - for the winning team ... is to have the losing team go first because you left us disappointed in the locker room while the other team is celebrating, rightfully so."
"It was our defense that broke down. It wasn't so much not being in the right place. We just got bullied to the basket. They do that to a lot of teams. That's why they're the No. 1-ranked team in the country. We couldn't defend the bully drives."
Rick Pitino expressed frustration over the NCAA's post-game interview process after St. John's loss to Duke. He suggested that the losing team should be interviewed first to avoid leaving them feeling disappointed while the winning team celebrates. St. John's lost 80-75, with Duke overcoming a 10-point deficit. Pitino noted that his team's defense struggled against Duke's aggressive play, which contributed to their defeat. Key players for Duke included Caleb Foster, Isaiah Evans, and Cameron Boozer, who made significant contributions in the game.
