balanced careful playing
When you are playing zone, you have to be careful about 3-point shooting. You want to have balanced inside-outside scoring.
care looked shot
It looked like we were going to take care of business. We just never could make that one big shot to get us over the hump.
best-friends care chemistry gets good points star type
They don't care who gets the points or the star of the game. Their chemistry is unbelievable. They're good friends off the court. It's just a camaraderie type of thing.
basketball care felt good guard kids played
The first thing we told the kids when we went in was that we hadn't played very well at all and only trailed by two points. We felt like we could take better care of the basketball and felt like we could guard better. ... We felt like we were in pretty good shape.
basketball everybody good night team together type week win
We are going to have to come out and play every night to win this regional. We aren't the type of basketball team that can just show up and go through the motions. Right now, we are just like everybody else. You want to put together a good week of basketball and see what happens.
came decent five point six though
Even though we never came up with one of those big runs. I thought we made enough of those five and six point spurts to keep a decent cushion.
depth factor game guarded half second worn
I thought in the second half, we guarded better than we did in the first half and didn't have as many turnovers. It may have worn them down a little bit. I think our depth probably was a factor in the game also.
change defensive momentum needed
We needed to play catch-up, but we could never get that defensive spurt to change the momentum.
came quarter third
We came out in the third quarter and went to work.
bench came gave hayden nice
Hayden came off the bench and really gave us a nice lift.
chances create deal great points score scoring scouts seem
Macomb doesn't have a great deal of size. They don't seem to score a lot of points, but they do create a lot of points and scoring chances off their defense. Our scouts were pretty impressed.
basketball good guard pass physical shoot stature together won
When you look at what we trot out there and you look at our physical stature you'd think, well, I don't know. But we do play awfully well together and we've got some basketball skills; we can pass it, we can shoot it and we try to guard you. When you've won 21 ballgames in January, you've got to be a pretty good team.
bothered free throw
What bothered me was the free throw attempts. We fouled them way too much.
bit defensive hard kept preaching quarter settled
We kept preaching how hard you have to play. We were a bit overanxious there in the first quarter and made some defensive mistakes, but once we settled into a rhythm, things started to go our way.
