If we come up with the board, it's game over.
earn four games job lost regular row season straight win
We're ecstatic. We lost four in a row at the end of the regular season and we've done an outstanding job to win two straight games here to earn the right to play Gonzaga. And . ... . we . ... . are . ... . excited.
bad ball certainly concerned game good happened team
We are not a very good ball team right now. I am concerned about some things that happened during the game that need to be corrected. Like I told the team, you are never as bad as you are and are never as good as you think you are. This was certainly a wake-up call.
against ball bounce came close far finish game kids played team whale
Our kids played a whale of a game against the No. 6 team in the nation, and I told them that. But to close out a team like that you've got to finish every play, and we didn't finish on that rebound. It came too far out and to their advantage. It's the bounce of the ball sometimes.
ball care drive game grabbed hands high knew shoot
You knew they had to shoot a 3. You don't care if they drive by you. We wanted our hands high without fouling. Travis just grabbed the ball and it was game over.
sitting time
There's time to do nothing, everything's closed. I'm just sitting around.
ask came goal hold older proud slow trying
I'm really proud of these guys; you couldn't ask for anything more from them. Magdalena's a much older club, and our goal was to hold them under 70, and we came pretty close. We were just trying to slow them down.
playing teams
The two teams that are playing very well right now are St. Mary's and USF.
again close front
We had to get out in front again and close out a team. Now we will have more confidence.
advance baton concerned excited generally good kids performance rouge type year
We go down to Baton Rouge every year and are excited about going again. If we advance to a regional, this is generally the place that we play. It will be good to put our kids in that type atmosphere. Right now, we are concerned about our performance and improvement.
brain bruce commitment cooper corey defender fell finding grew love michael niche pick player stage watching
Corey is a better defender at this stage than Bruce was, but it's all about finding your niche in the NBA. The Spurs fell in love with Bruce because of his commitment to defense. Bruce grew up watching Michael Cooper play for the Lakers, and he used to pick my brain about what kind of player Cooper was.
certainly fans lost motivation players polls shocked
Considering what we lost on the mound, I am not shocked with where we are picked. The preseason polls are more for the fans than anything, but our players can certainly use them as motivation during the season.
blowing free gave offensive time wind
This is not what I envisioned. Obviously, with the wind blowing it was not going to be an offensive day. The only time it could be is if you gave free passes.
free shot sure throws
They shot 26 more free throws than we did. Make sure you put that in your article.
