figures grind hard high intensity
He can really be a presence. When Brandon figures out how to grind it out and how to play hard with high intensity all the time, he's really going to be a handful.
deep great guys hard heck paid personal speaks team volumes work
That just speaks volumes of how deep of a team we are. On any other team, a lot of these guys all would probably be first team. ... It's a heck of an accomplishment for our team. It's a great personal accomplishment for those guys that made it. Hard work paid off.
goal great hard life seen seize stress teams tough trying win work
It's so tough to get there, so many things have to work in your favor. I've seen a lot of great teams not make it, and teams that shouldn't have made it work hard and get there. It's been the goal of my life to get there and win a championship. That's the thing we're trying to stress is you have to seize the moment.
advance against good job points rebounds scoring
We've got to come out here and play our butts off (against Puxico). We can't give up rebounds like we did tonight. We can't give up as many points as we did tonight. I thought Advance did a good job of scoring a lot of points. They got a lot of rebounds against us. We're going to have to play our A game.
night stay took tried
We tried to stay with him all night. I thought every 3-pointer they took was contested.
couple missed turned
We turned it over a couple times when we shouldn't have, and we missed some shots.
far flow half strength
We didn't have the flow we wanted the first half as far as getting up the floor, that's a strength of our team. But we still persevered.
edge
Our rebounding was a big edge in this game.
defense floor good knock looked looks open opposite ran rhythm shots took
I thought we got a lot of good looks on offense. We ran the floor well. We looked opposite and that got the defense moving. We took a lot of open shots in rhythm and more times than not, you're going to knock them down.
best toward
I thought we executed best toward the end. We executed well down the stretch.
ball came guarded looked played push successful
I thought we came out and played hard; we guarded well and got the ball down the floor. We really looked to push the ball a lot more, and I thought we were successful in doing that.
ball came court fairly guarded help night ran
I thought we came out and did the little fundamental things that help you win. We jumped the ball on defense, rebounded, guarded the ball pretty well most of the night and ran the court fairly well.
bit figuring guys hopefully last man month movement offense ready season
I thought our man offense (Tuesday) was a little bit better than it had been. We still need a little more movement -- guys are still figuring out when to come off screens, when to set screens. But, that's what we've got this last month of the season to get ready for. Come March, hopefully we'll be ready for that.
capable game gear great hope lose team tonight tough
That's a tough one. You lose a tough game like we do tonight and you got to gear back up and play a great team like Charleston. I hope we're capable of that.
