basketball expect half kicked respect team win
It was an embarrassing performance. We didn't come out, we didn't play hard, we didn't give this team any respect and we got our butts kicked in the process. You can't play one half of basketball and expect to win a basketball game.
along game half inability opportunity second turn win
We get the game where we have the opportunity to win it, then we turn it over. The turnovers in the second half I thought killed us - along with our inability to make shots.
basketball best five half might missed open took
I don't think it was because they missed open shots. Defensively, it might have been our best half of basketball all year. And it took all five guys.
everybody half page
We've just got to get everybody on the same page here. It's a disappointing first half to the All-Star break.
good half needed obviously played second win wrong
Obviously this was a much needed win. It was a good win that was kind of like Murphy's Law. Everything that could go wrong in the first half did go wrong. But we played very well in the second half and we clamped down on defense.
basketball best half might year
It might have been our best half of basketball defensively all year long.
difference game gave half move second sharp start win
I thought we tightened it up a lot in the second half and we only gave up 41. That was the difference in the game. I don't think we were as sharp offensively and defensively to start the game but your going to have that. We'll take the win and move on and see if we can keep it going.
aggressive beginning fatigue game half last mentally night ourselves played pull second succumbed team
I thought we mentally succumbed to fatigue in the beginning of the game because we played last night and that's what I told the team. We were the more aggressive team in the second half and got ourselves back in the game. We just didn't have enough to pull it off.
gave halftime lead lift performance second thank unit
I thought the second unit really gave us a lift defensively. I told the first unit at halftime that I thought it was a sub-par performance defensively and we have to thank the second unit for being in the lead at the half.
best defensive half might second
I thought (the second half) might have been our best defensive half of the season.
biggest defense five fourth half problem second turned
I thought the biggest thing was our defense in the fourth quarter. The other big thing was we had only five turnovers in the second half. That was a big problem for us in the first half -- we turned it over too much.
best defense half might played
That might have been the best half of defense that we've played all season.
basketball decide expect half spot team tonight whether
You can't play one half of basketball and expect to win. You can't spot a team a 20-point lead. I'm going to have to decide whether we want to play the same people. The team we put out there tonight didn't want to play. If they don't want to play, we have to put someone else out there that does.
ball continue lost offensive turn
We lost all our offensive organization. We can't continue to turn the ball over like this. When they made a run, we let down defensively, and that was the difference.
