As far as Justin Williams is concerned, he can come from anywhere at any time when you attack the basket to block shots.
basketball fought good left team
There are times when you get really discouraged with your team and this is not one of them. This team fought hard. We weren't very good tonight, but there's a lot of basketball left to play and this team is going to get better.
athletic basket both guys hottest league playing plays team
They're a very athletic team. They have two guys playing well in the post, which allows them to make plays at the basket both offensively and defensively. They're probably the hottest team in the league right now. They'll give us a fight.
basketball excellent great players rapport recruiting ties
He has great recruiting ties and outstanding basketball knowledge. He really understands the game. Walter also has an excellent rapport with the players in our program.
best build
It's something we can build on, even if it wasn't our best game.
bad chance educated playing
I'm not really educated on that. You just feel bad that we aren't playing anymore. The more you win, the better chance you have. But in this situation, we don't get to play tomorrow.
care opportunity optimistic
I'm optimistic about this year's team. I think we have an opportunity to be good, but there's a lot of things we have to take care of.

I'm just glad he didn't get to 30 points.
bleak looked
It looked pretty bleak there for a minute.
both confidence experience freshman good heath league pack score scoring since
Slaughter and Heath pack a pretty good 1-2 punch. They've both got experience in this league and have been scoring for a long time. They've both started since their freshman year, and have the confidence to score at this level.
ball college confidence good obviously shoot team teams
They are obviously a really good team and especially in The Pit. They play with more confidence at home. They shoot the ball better at home. And probably like most teams in college basketball, they have a lot of confidence from their crowd.
defensive hard help involved move moving offense playing sitting trying worked
We're trying to get him more involved in the offense and get him moving better. He's so much better on the move than he is just sitting down there in the post. We also worked hard on some defensive assignments and playing help defense.
athletic ball both except player plays shoots
Except (Smith) probably shoots the ball even better. He's a very long, athletic player who can make plays both offensively and defensively.
game guys hard hopefully last settled
Being the last game of the night, the guys will be really anxious. Hopefully for us, everyone will come out and play hard and with a lot of energy, and we'll get settled in early.
