mix playing
Playing linebacker is completely different than playing safety. You're in the mix every play and those big linemen get on you real fast.
helped instead kids playing pressure relax shoot tournament worrying
I think that we let the pressure get to us and we started worrying about other things instead of playing basketball. When the tournament was over, the kids were able to relax and get back to the things that helped us get to where we were at, which were shoot well and playing aggressively.
easiest helped matter playing positions switching zone
Switching positions was probably the easiest thing for me to do. All I have to do is sit there in zone coverage, and that's helped me a lot. It's really just a matter of playing the way we play defense, which is to read and react.
against fun great instead playing road took
They took a long road to get there, and they made it happen. Troy and Joey, they're great playmakers. It's going to be fun to play with them instead of playing against them.

An angry man opens his mouth and shuts his eyes.
conference faces games hate sure teams
You go through it all and the two conference championship games are being repeated. You come up here and you like to see new teams and you sure hate to see those same faces that see you over and over and know what you do. It's going to be another knock-down, drag-out.

We had players really step up and make shots tonight.

Wise men learn more from fools than fools from the wise.

Old age isn't so bad when you consider the alternatives.

When the opportunity came to make big plays, we made them.
good heads kids played team
I thought the kids played pretty well. It was a good team we played today. The kids should have their heads up.
attacked came couple halftime key missed react shots
I think we came out of halftime a little flat. They came out and attacked us. We missed a couple key shots that I thought we should have made and we didn't react well to that.
cool miss steve
That's basketball. It's a business. I'll miss Steve Francis, but that's about it. I'm cool like Kool-Aid.
helping saw special teams whatever
I saw him helping us out a lot on special teams and on the defense. He's a playmaker. Unfortunately, whatever happened, we're there for him.
