hitting
We started hitting (the 3s) for one thing. If they go in, they count. They add.
defense gets knocking lets outside rest takes wind
When we're knocking them down, it gets frustrating for the defense. When we're not knocking them down, it kind of takes the wind out of us, and it lets the defense rest when all you take is outside shots.
alert aware capable deceptive defensive good job overall people respect shock shoot tough
A lot of people don't respect him, but I do. I know what he's capable of doing. He's a tough guy. He can shoot the ball. He's deceptive when he drives. It isn't a shock to me. I just think overall on the defensive end we didn't do a good job of being aware and alert on some of that stuff.
game inside
They really established their inside game. That's the way the game is played, going inside out.
care points scoring
That's just unselfishness. We really don't care who's scoring the points as long as somebody's doing it.
despite good latter losses thankful
Despite the losses here the latter part of the season, we have had a good season. There is a lot to be thankful for.
determined easy sink slump stay
As a team, we're frustrated. We're determined at the same time, though. We're determined to stay positive. It's very easy to slump your shoulders, sink your head, (think) 'We're losing.' But we're not going to do that.
coach defensive effort extra foul game good hold middle picking plays rebounds stay
Coach has really been challenging him to stay out of foul trouble. We need him to hold the middle down, get big rebounds and make good defensive plays without picking up fouls. I think he's going to make the extra effort to stay in the game and we're going to need him to.
close coach defender defense hand high liberty shoot teaches
Coach always teaches us on defense to close out with a high hand and take away that shot. If you're on offense, if a defender doesn't do that, then you're at liberty to shoot the 3. It's just confidence.
rolling trying
This is 2006. We're just trying to keep this thing rolling while we're here.
guess matter maybe run takes
He can run the point. But I guess maybe it takes away from their perimeter play. The have the personnel, but it's just a matter of it working.
focused good
He got on us, but we also focused on the good things we've done.
confidence earlier game passed shot twice
I had that same shot earlier in the game -- I think I had it twice -- but I passed it up. I have confidence in that shot.
confidence means
If you have confidence in what you're doing, that means a lot.
