deal games less score seven
There's not many things less important than the score at halftime. It's kind of like that deal with the race. Seven games in, who really knows?
amends chance good guy guys loss next obviously piece team tournament year
The tournament loss was obviously very disappointing. But I think this team can get a lot better. With another piece or two, this team could become great. We could probably use another big guy and a perimeter shooter. The good thing is these guys have a chance to come back next year and try to make amends as much as we can.
talk
We don't talk about the streak. It's such an unbelievable thing, so we haven't put much emphasis, if any at all, on the streak.
bad beat lost team tonight win
We got beat handily. We lost tonight to a team that can win it all. We got off to a bad start. They were awesome.
decision fourth
Well, it was his fourth foul. It was a coach's decision to not put him back in. It didn't have anything to do with it (outcome).
gives great victory
That was a great victory by (A&M). It gives us a chance.
columbia forget great guy hurt offensive people played points post six
That was big because people forget that Young was the guy who really hurt us in Columbia with 14 points and six offensive rebounds. I thought that (Kaun) played great post defense, and C.J., too.
knew love playing worried
I worried because I knew that Stinson and Blalock love playing here.
coming heard listen next talent team year
Listen when I say that Baylor team is going to be heard from next year and in the coming years. There's a lot of talent there.
beating bring colorado focus stuff talk team trying win
I won't talk to the team about that. I think that's pretty premature. If our whole focus right now is beating Colorado and trying to win the league, I don't think you bring stuff like that into it just yet.
tough
I was very disappointed in our toughness. We were not very tough tonight.
change complete game guard length prepared unique
I think Rondo is the best, most complete guard in the country. He has a unique way about him. He can change the game in one or two possessions because of his length defensively and his hands. That's something that we have to be prepared for.
good surface
I think he's just scratching the surface of how good he can be.
ok
I think he'll be OK (for Friday). He just tweaked it.
