defended eight range score shots turned
We didn't play as well as the score indicated in the first half. We made shots - we were 7 of 10 from 3-point range - and turned it over eight times. We didn't play great, but we defended and we rebounded.
offensive outside shots teams ugly
If we didn't make those outside shots today, it would have been an ugly offensive game. You have got to make shots when teams do that.
anybody biggest shot year
It's the biggest shot anybody has made this year for us.
accuracy believe far high led release school shot
I didn't see him play much in high school because we were led to believe we wouldn't have a shot at him. His release has got to get quicker, but his accuracy is far more than I ever expected.
certainly figure guys hopefully job knock played position shot trying
He's young and just is trying to figure it out. ... I probably played Brandon too many minutes, and that may have contributed to him not being as effective. He said he wasn't tired, but certainly we've got to do a better job of getting guys in there and hopefully put them in a position where they can knock down a shot and give us a boost.
offense opposed page run shot situation totally whatever whenever
We have to be totally on the same page that whatever the situation is, we can get a shot whenever we want to. Right now, we run offense to run offense, as opposed to run offense to score.
attitude came concerned feeling good playing shots stepping
He had a good attitude when he wasn't playing and he came in and made shots. But he does more than just make shots. He is concerned with being well-rounded and he is doing better defensively. He is stepping up and making shots because he is feeling good about how he is playing.
energy feet last offensive outside played shots three ugly yesterday
I don't think we played with the same energy we did last night. But we made shots. ... Yesterday we made three shots outside of 6 feet for the game. Three. Today, if we did not make shots, it would have really been an ugly offensive game.
answers couple late mario shot
Mario had the big answers for us tonight. He had a couple of big three-pointers late in the shot clock.
best sure
I'm sure we'll get their best shot. We always do.
sure winner
I'm sure the winner will get one of those.
creating enthusiasm job remarkable sure
I'm sure the place will be full. He's done a remarkable job of creating enthusiasm and a mind-set down there.
front game good others
In front of the crowd, I thought they did a pretty good job. Julian was in a hurry. The game was in fast-forward (Friday night) for him. The others all had pretty good composure.
difference forced freshmen hoped knew learn others perfect seniors underneath
I knew we'd be inconsistent. I didn't know to what level. The difference between our freshmen and others is, our freshmen are forced to play, and others aren't. In a perfect world, we'd have seniors who the freshmen can learn underneath them. We've been a little more inconsistent than probably what I hoped so far.
