basketball bottom built conference everybody feeding four good leagues six strong top wins
There is no bottom feeding in our league. Everybody is really strong from top to bottom. They are all good basketball programs, and you don't have that four to six wins built into conference play like some leagues do.
came four game knew played proud team tech virginia
We knew this game was going to be close. Virginia Tech had played that way their first four games. We had to be tough. We weren't really sharp, but I was proud of the way the team came out at halftime. We played pretty well once we got going.
coming earn experience four good individual player players returning several takes
I know what it takes to win, and it's up to each individual player to make that happen. We have to earn the right to be a good team. We have several returning players that got a lot of experience as sophomores and juniors, and we have four new players coming in that want to get things done. Hopefully, that will be infectious.
consistent four games gotten hard minutes needed next opportunity since
I just didn't think he got a consistent run. Some games he'd get 20 minutes, 25 minutes and then he'd get like four the next day and I think that's hard on any player. Since he's been with Seattle, he's gotten a lot of opportunity to play. He just needed a chance.
added balance continued debt due equity expect expense financing focus fourth fund further goal gross guidance half improved including increased increasing intend inventory june later loss mainly managing margin margins million mix obtaining per percent percentage planned product quarter raising reached reduce reducing result revenue second turns until
As a result of increased sales, product mix and expense reductions, second quarter gross margins as a percentage of revenue improved to 39 percent from 35 percent in the second quarter of 2004 and from 32 percent in the first quarter of 2005. We expect gross margin as a percentage of revenue to approximate 40 percent in the second half of 2005. We improved on our second quarter guidance of a loss of $0.08 to $0.09 per share, due mainly to the deferral of previously planned UWB investments until later this year. In addition, we reached our near-term fund raising goal and added further liquidity by obtaining approximately $4.2 million in new equity and debt financing commitments on June 20. With continued focus on managing our balance sheet, including increasing inventory turns and reducing DSOs, we intend to reduce the company's financing requirements for the fourth quarter.
believes four games situation sure team win
It's tough. Physically, it's got to be tough. But if you do get in that situation where you have to play (Thursday), I'm sure every team believes they can play four games and win the thing.
bottom built feeding four games leagues season six wins
There's no bottom feeding in our league. Everybody's really strong. You don't have that four or six wins built in like some leagues do. Hopefully, everyone will look into how we did in pre-conference season and the competitiveness of the games now.
close five four minutes pick run stretch win
A lot of times in a close game, it's only four or five minutes that are different. You have to pick your stretch and run it as long as you can. We got it out to 13 and it was enough to win the game.
effort gone playing point practice teams tough
The players, they're responsible for the way we're playing right now. It's their attitude, their effort in practice that allows us to play like this at this point in the season. You look around and see some teams that have gone through some tough things that aren't necessarily playing as well right now.
attitude effort fortitude mean players playing practice whatever
The players are responsible for whatever way we're playing right now, because it's their attitude and their effort in practice that allows us to play like this. To the players, you can say all the right things, but if the players don't have the fortitude to get it done, it doesn't mean anything as a coach.
coming good guards knew stop
We knew their guards were good coming into the game. We didn't stop them in the first half; they scored at will. We were flat.
game hang knew second tough
We knew it was going to be a tough game, even when we got up 18 in the second half. For us to hang on like that and win, that was big.
capable good telling
We keep telling him how good he is and what he's capable of doing.
good guard puts tough
Thornton's really tough to guard when he puts it on the floor. He's just a good player.
