harder last teams
It will be a little harder this year. Teams didn't know a lot about us last year.
against four match normally teams versatile
It's a different look. We normally don't play teams with four guards, but I'd like to think we're versatile enough to match up against it.
plays ran shots tough
We ran some plays for him, and he made some tough shots in traffic.
among four memphis seems state teams three top west
West Memphis is always among the top three or four teams in the state every year. It seems like they never have to rebuild.
days difference four games later mimic normal played practice season state stay three tournament week
We'll stay with our normal routine. There won't be much of a difference in our practice schedule. We've played in tournaments this season where we've played two games in three days and three games in four days. This week will mimic the state tournament later this year.
coming jump man run
We started to run and jump at them. We did it from different places, so they couldn't tell where the jump man was coming from.
basket drove free good job jump second
We didn't do a good job on him the whole game. In the first half, he drove to the basket and made free throws. In the second half, he made jump shots. You just have to give him a lot of credit.
anyone beating capable figure guys shut slow team tried
You look at the other team and try to figure out who's capable of beating you. Obviously, we're not going to shut anyone down, but we tried to slow those guys down.
create defense execute hopefully offense open ourselves past plays pride shot strength
Our strength is our defense. We try to pride ourselves on defense because we feel that when we execute it correctly, we can create plays on offense and hopefully make some open shots. These past two days, we've really shot well though.
attitude classroom finished great group guys parents sending successful teachers thank truly
I thank the parents for sending me the finished product. These guys were truly ambassadors for our program. I can't tell you how many teachers have told me what a great group they've been in the classroom. That same attitude that made them successful in the classroom made them a success on the court.
great move offensive pressure several shooter skills
He understands how defenses move and shift. He's got several offensive skills and he's able to put a lot of pressure on a defense. He's a great shooter and one of our better passers.
felt good score
I just felt like, if we could ever get up two scores, we'd be in good shape. But we just couldn't get a score and a stop.
last looked roll seconds seemed shot
I'll take what we got in the last 10 seconds every time. Lewis' shot seemed to roll around every end of the basket, and Colin's shot looked like it was in.
game lost maybe options team work
I had so many options on this team to work with. I said to myself so many times, if maybe I did this or that we could've won. We were in every game this season. The most we lost by was 5 points, and that was in overtime.
