aggressive staple
We were not good, and unprepared, I guess, and emotionally not ready. They were so much more aggressive to the ball. Something that has been a staple of ours, our defense, just let us down tonight.
ability aggressive charlotte difficult guys heels outside score variety wore
Charlotte's ability to score outside wore on us. They have a variety of guys and each is difficult to guard. Charlotte was more aggressive this game. We had them on their heels the first time.
drag extent neck
To the extent that someone is there to keep dredging it up, it's going to be an albatross around her neck forever. Blagojevich is going to drag this out again. That's the real test. This is just a preview.

Both these races could well be close. Primaries are hard to peg.

We had a very hard time defending La Salle. We emphasize our offense so much, maybe we're not spending enough time on defense. We want to get back to being one of the better defensive teams and shut people down.

Part of our offense is that there are no set plays to get any certain person open. It's more about the flow, and the better players are going to end up with the most shots. Cage did a really good job on him and made it difficult to score all night.
guy harder main position score struggles time
I think that the position they are in right now, McAllister is kind of the main guy who can score on his own. If you can concentrate on him or he struggles at all, they have a harder time scoring.
contain couple defense good hard played
We couldn't contain Dean. A couple of times we played very good defense on him, and he made really hard shots.
brutal difficult game steal win won
We haven't a won a game in this brutal month. It's been very difficult for us. You have to try to steal a win here or there, and we haven't done that.

When you're questioning your effort, you know you have a lot of work to do.
