against caused effort good shots size start stayed
Our effort was good tonight. We stayed focused, especially at the start of the two halves. You have to make perimeter shots against this team. Their size caused a lot of problems.
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.
environment good
Luckily, the weather's not too good with the snow. So it's a good environment for basketball.
confident game good national played playing team tournament winning
When you get into a national tournament at the end of the season, you know you're playing good teams. This is a team that is used to winning and it showed tonight. They're very confident and very good at how they play. They played the game played at their pace.
ball break good guys large push
For a large part of the game, guys were able to push the ball on the break and get a good look. That's kind of how we like to play.
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.
good hungry kids personally seem week
It's all what you make of it. I personally think the bye week is a good thing. The kids seem to get really hungry when they have a week off.
competition good guys help last night personnel players plus realize step strength three weeks
What has been a strength the last two or three weeks with this team. We have personnel step in and help guys when they're not having a good a night as they wanted. We have 10 or 11 players help us. In practice, there is so much competition that guys realize that if they don't play the way they are capable, there is a guy there to do it and that is a plus for this team.
good
They had good explanations. You just go with it.
bad coach coaches denver fired good press
At his press conference, Wade Phillips said that he'd feel really, really bad not being the coach of the Denver Broncos if they only fired bad coaches. But they fire good coaches everyday.
against best good guys pleasing stepped team win
The most pleasing thing about this win is how many of our guys stepped up and contributed, and did it against the best team in our league, a very, very good team.
anybody anyone best convince focus good teams time
I think that every time you play anyone in a tournament, you focus on their best games. You don't have to convince anybody of how good any of these teams are.
came good utah wire
It came down to the wire and Utah made some really good plays.
attention gets good hits pay three
He's had some really big games. Like a freshman, he's been a little inconsistent at times. He is a really streaky player. If he gets off to a good start, and hits his first two or three shots, he can take off and have a big game. It'll be important for us to pay a lot of attention to him early.
