home hustle shows team
It was all about the hustle plays. That shows a team that doesn't want to go home yet.
close games laid lost rough team
We're not a team to quit. We've lost close games and it's been a rough season, but it wouldn't have been right if we'd laid down and just rolled over.
chemistry glad great guys late man playing potential team
We've got a lot of team chemistry now. A lot of guys are playing to their potential. Like a great man always said, 'Better late than never.' I'm glad we're doing it now.
against chance defense good harder hustling missing move primary second team
It's hurtful. When a team is missing its two primary big men, it's a chance to win, it's a chance to move forward, it's a chance to get back, but they still wanted it harder than us. We let that defense get to us. Not in the first half. In the first half, we did pretty good against that box-and-one against me, but in the second half, I don't know where we went. It's all about heart. It's all about hustling 90 feet. We didn't hustle.
chemistry knew team tough
It's very frustrating. We knew what kind of team we could be, but we didn't play like it. If you don't have that chemistry early, it's tough to get it.
everybody giving gotten letting teams
I think we're getting used to letting other teams come back and giving everybody a show. It's gotten real crazy.
against backs course played scratch team thinks type
I think we played that way because our backs were against the wall. Of course we didn't play our best. We're not the type of team that that thinks we're the No. 1 team, so we can do anything we want. We still have to scratch and claw to keep that No. 1.
couple defensive striking team trying weakness
I don't really see a weakness right now going to districts. We're more of a defensive team right now, but we're trying a couple things to become more of a striking team.
experience express family wish words
It was wonderful, wonderful, words can't express it. I just wish my family was here to experience it,
fight hard ten
Ten times. Ten times. It's hard to fight back and fight back and get nothing out of it.
audience teaches theaters
(Attending a production) teaches them about theaters and being an audience member.
coming games half losses plague seemed strikes striking win
That strikes me like all these losses are striking me, just off the wall, crazy. Where is this all coming from? Where is this going? It seemed like a plague over this team. If we play like we did (Saturday), I think we'll win a lot more games this half of the ACC than we did the first half.
both watching
You'll find yourself watching both the actor and the mouse.
barrels continue cordial fit member oil provide region states unclear
We provide 50,000 barrels of oil a day to the region and it is unclear how Trinidad and Tobago will fit into this agreement. We have been having cordial discussions with other member states and will continue these discussions at the meeting.
