best defensive good great helps offensive player players
The thing about Isaiah is that he's not only a good offensive player, but he can really be a great defensive player at times too and really helps us out with rebounding. When he does all that he's one of the best players around.
defense gives good great hit inside stepped teams
That's what a lot of teams do. We have good inside players. They try to take it away. When they do, we have to take what the defense gives us. They stepped up and hit some great shots.
attack ball bit defense denial good happy kids lay pressure time
I was real happy with our defense. We gambled a little bit more than I liked. I think our ball pressure and denial defense was pretty good especially this time of the year. I told the kids to go out, attack the boards, and lay it all on the line.
good
They were good shooters and good shots, but, unfortunately, they didn't fall.
good great opportunity saw turn
I know he saw him turn his back and saw a good opportunity to go and he did and he made a great play.
care faith good ok ready staff training utmost
I pretty much let our training staff take care of the training. They tell me when he's OK to play and I put him out there. We have a very good training staff. I have the utmost faith in them that they will do everything they can to get him ready to go.
active aggressive attacking ball challenge good post team
They like to be an aggressive attacking team with the dribble. They set a lot of ball screens. They post up pretty active and athletic, so they'll be a good challenge for us.
again focused good group kids lay line ready saturday sure
I do know our kids will get focused again and give it everything they've got. I'm sure this group will be ready to lay it on the line again Saturday and see if it's good enough.

I'm just so proud of my kids. Grit and determination tonight. We showed an incredible amount of toughness and we weren't clicking the best and we found a way to dig deep and find a way to beat a very good team.
last seem surgery year
Things seem to be going very well. He had his surgery last year and everything I know is just fine.
bad executing game hit hitting hoping indicator runs scoring shots system teams though
Sometimes scoring can be a bad indicator with the way you are playing. In the game of basketball, teams make runs and you hit shots in bunches. Though we got down early, in our system we were executing it pretty well. We were just hoping they weren't going to be keep hitting the shots they were.
ball change game inside itself lends offense sure
We aren't going to change a whole lot. Our offense lends itself to getting the ball inside so it's something we try to do every game so I'm sure we'll do the same on Thursday.
few fine focus run system today tune wheel
What we want to do is what we've done all year. We aren't going to re-invent the wheel with one day of practice. So we'll focus on what we do today and fine tune a few things. We just want to run our system as well as we can.
proud team
I am so proud of this team. The thing about this team is they don't want to let one another down. They play for each other.
