bodies main players playing second throw tired
In the second half, they were playing tired because because we were able to throw a lot of bodies at them. Their main players don't ever come out.
both case coaches job players playing talk teams wanting
I don't think that's the case at all. Players and coaches talk that way all the time... about wanting it more. Both teams were playing hard. When two teams are playing hard, it comes down to execution, and Bradley did a better job of that.
heart player russell soul start
I don't know if one player spurred it (team chemistry) on more than others, but I do think Russell Robinson, from start to finish, has been the heart and soul of our team.
certainly chance coach deal good players reflection win year
The coach of the year deal is nice, I'm not going to lie, but that's all a reflection of the players. That's the way it always works. If you have good players, you have a good chance to win those things. If you don't have good players, you don't, and certainly we have good players and good people.
blame crowds excited expected sandwich spoiled
We're spoiled with the crowds we get here. We can't blame the crowd for us being dull, because we didn't give them much to get excited about. But I expected it. It was a sandwich game.
guys happens internet perform sensitive
What happens on the Internet is some (players) are sensitive and some guys aren't. Some guys look at that stuff; some guys don't. The guys that don't usually perform better.
anticipate coming conference found knew ourselves since team together trying wind
We were a team kind of just flapping in the wind and floundering around, not because they weren't trying but because we hadn't found ourselves yet. I knew we'd get better. But I didn't anticipate us coming together and having a surge like we've had here since we started conference play.
best defensive equation factor good guys last majority night offense playing second team
The other thing our offense wasn't very good last night at all. If the offense isn't very good, I think you are better off playing your best defensive team the majority of time. That also could factor into the equation why those guys didn't get in the second half.
best four games good home played road worst
We've actually played better away from home. Our four road games are the best games we've played all year. Our fourth-best home game hasn't been as good as our worst road game.
good grades shape
We're in good shape with that. Our grades have been good. We're in good shape in that area.
approach exact fairly guys totally
We're not going to say, 'OK, you guys have done great, but this is a totally different now. We'll approach it the exact same way. We'll try to keep the guys loose, and they should be because they're fairly confident.
physically playing
We're still playing better physically than we are mentally.
