coming compete good high kids learn seniors system time
We have a lot of good kids that keep coming through (Kentwood). But I like to think that our system has something to do with it too. These kids come in young and they learn how to compete at a high level. And by the time they are seniors they do just that.
develop good guys help kids older played pulled system together younger
These guys have pulled together and played some good basketball. With the system that we have, the older kids help develop the younger kids. And when it's the younger kids' turn, they know how to win. When they're put in that spot, they come through.
bet fan safe since
I'm not a big fan of that play. But since no one (on defense) was trailing, it was a pretty safe bet at that point. I thought it was fine.
award coaches deserving good humbling win
It's very humbling to win this award again. There are so many good coaches out there in all of the sports. There are a lot of deserving people.
attack basket rebound tough
They attack the basket and rebound so hard. They are tough and it was a tough game.
ball finish good guys players post quality solid
They've to two good quality post players who are real fundamental and solid kids. They know how to get them the ball and those guys finish well.
guys kids shoot shot
They shoot well. Not only Isaiah, but the other kids shot very well, too. They had other guys shoot well right when we didn't need it.
changes game half nice patch
Obviously, the game changes without him. We had a very nice first half and then we had to kind of patch it together.
guys replace
We didn't have many guys to replace him with. It was a gutsy win.
run similar styles
They run a lot, they press; we're very similar in styles as a team.
again chance good learn
We know we'll probably see them again (at state) and there's a good chance we'll see Curtis again. We always try to learn from our losses. Hopefully, we'll make the adjustments we need.
half missing three top
We started each half missing a wide-open lay-up, and that kind of set the tone. My top three scorers couldn't find the basket.
basketball coming fastest good kids player solid
He's probably one of the fastest kids out there and he's coming into his own. He's a solid basketball player who's going to do a lot of good things for us.
advantage door opened took
We opened the door a little bit, and they took advantage of it.
