biggest bottom close concern couple gigantic good halftime hit hole hurry job knew line points quarters score shot stay tied
Bottom line is by halftime we were tied there and they hit a couple buckets right before half. They jumped on us in a hurry and that's the biggest concern with them. They come out and you look at what they do to teams, they have gigantic first quarters and have them in such a hole that they don't ever recover. But we did a good job of regrouping and responding. I knew if we'd get close there at the half we had a shot to stay with it. You can't give up (that many) points in the first half. That's not the kind of score we wanted.
free luck shot throws
Sometimes you have to have a little luck on your side, as well, especially the way we shot some free throws down the stretch.
came fed found good hit huge plays second shots
Cody came out and made some outstanding plays and hit some huge shots for us. I think it fed from him. In the second half, we found (David). It was a good match-up for us.
ball offensive percent shot strong
We shot the ball a lot better tonight. We were 16 for 34, that's about 50 percent and we went 15 of 26 at the line. You can't give them 20 offensive rebounds. They're just so strong and so physical.
cool execute half hold miss offensive played sets shot thinking
On the offensive end, if we couldn't get into our sets and execute we were going to have problems. I don't know what (Gardner) shot in the first half but they were smoking. They were hot. You just keep thinking you can hold on and they'll cool down a little bit, but they didn't miss and we played catch-up the whole night.
few fourth hit offensive open opened pleased quarter shots worn
I think in the fourth quarter we got worn down. I'm pleased with the effort. We hit a few open shots that opened up our offensive a little more.
elevate few guards number teams
Very few teams do. That's a big number to put up on the board. There are very few guards that can elevate on that pull-up jumper of his.
basketball figure game slow win
We didn't want to go that kind of pace. An 80-point basketball game was not one that we were going to win and we couldn't figure out how to slow it down.
flat lay piper
Piper is going to come here and flat out lay it on us.
came normally
I thought in the first quarter, we came out and just didn't play well. We started doing things that we don't normally do.
roads saw
I saw a lot of two-lane roads become four-lane roads. Back when I first started all the development on (Ga. Highway) 124 had not occurred.
free percent shooting throw
David's shooting about 90 percent from the free throw line.
against certain formula industry penalty types work
Even with improvements in the penalty calculation formula ... there's still a lot of subjectivity that can work against industry in certain types of penalties.
ball good happened job
It just so happened that we did a good job getting the ball down the floor. That comes from good rebounding.
