effort game great stepped team total tremendous
Brandon does a lot of great things offensively. He had a tremendous game today, but it was a total team effort where everyone stepped up and contributed.
blocking close game good hit loose months seemed slow step stuff thanksgiving three tonight victory whenever
They did some of the stuff to us tonight that they did to us three months ago (a 77-57 Lockport victory in the WJOL Thanksgiving Classic), like blocking shots. They made the game more difficult. Whenever we got close enough to get over the hump, we seemed to be a step slow going to a loose ball. And then you have to give Lockport credit. They hit some big shots, did some good things.
effort game handle handling limiting lose pressure step teamwork three took
We didn't handle their pressure that well tonight. Handling pressure, limiting turnovers and rebounding were the three keys. It isn't often that you lose a game and feel that you took a step forward, but the effort and teamwork were there tonight.
best burst eric gave hardest nice people roberts stepped
I thought Eric Roberts stepped up and gave us a nice burst of energy. We used different combinations of people and defenses and got to look at a lot of people. We'll play the people who play the hardest and play the best together.
job kids nice staying stepped
The kids did a nice job staying in there, defensively. I thought our kids stepped up to the challenge.
converted line
We got to the line 29 times, which is a real positive. But we only converted 17.
distinct handled held needed rebound shot situation size
We held them to one shot many times, and that was key. We handled the rebound situation pretty well, too. We needed the rebounding because we had the distinct size advantage.
best effort four games great hustle kids knowing rewarded today
Our kids showed great effort and hustle and were rewarded with another game. That's the best reward today is knowing that we will be able to get in four games here.
anytime game good halves kids played quarters solid together
Our kids played solid for 32 minutes. That was the key. Anytime you play well for 32 minutes, good things will happen. We have played a lot of good quarters and halves this year, but we put it together for the whole game this time.
deep dug free hole loose number offensive ourselves quickly quite react
We dug ourselves into a deep hole and then dug ourselves out of it, but we just couldn't quite get over the hump. There were a number of things that were costly. They had too many offensive put-backs, and we didn't react quickly enough after loose balls. Then there were the free throws.
afraid fed lost people war
We've lost some of our soldiers, and I think people here are fed up with the war. It's a war I'm afraid we can't win.
badly heart home question
We didn't play with heart and that is especially disappointing on our home floor. We have to question how badly we wanted it. Right now, we are not doing the little things that we need to do to be successful.
court early game gave quicker
We gave up way too many uncontested basket. Early in the game they were getting down the court quicker than we were and that is uncharacteristic of this team.
battling job kids nice quarter second
After that second quarter surge, the kids did a nice job of battling back.
