How can you claim that you lost the game in the first quarter when you had a 12 POINT LEAD WITH 8:45 to go in the 4TH?!?
That's Carlisle hyperbole, kinda like when he says KP is an historically good 3 point shooter out above the break.
We have to translate coach hyperspeak.

Or
Translation: Ok, well we didn't actually lose the game in the 1st quarter and yes we had every opportunity to win the game up 12 with under 9 min and then again at up 7 under 3 min, but that first quarter crappy play really chafes my hide! I'm going to send my team this message, thats what lost us the game.
See it all makes sense now.
