american-director
I did honest television. Real, live, honest television. That's what I did best.
american-director bar ended great greatest lucky performer performers truly
When I got lucky with Dean, I ended up with 16 years with one of the truly great performers of all time. He was the greatest performer I'd ever been around, bar none.
anybody beat good ready start team
We didn't come out ready to play. They're a good team and well coached, and you're not going to beat anybody when you start that way.
almost compete job kids nice respect
They've been in almost every one of their games. Mike's done a nice job over there. Their kids know how to compete and we have a lot of respect for them and their program.
basketball best calm emotions expected game played rivalry tough
They played us real tough and we expected that. In a rivalry game your emotions get the best of you and we didn't play with a lot of poise. We didn't really calm down and play our basketball game.
davis difference division reason
There's a reason Cory Davis is getting a Division I scholarship. He's a difference maker, not only for them but for everyone in the league.
apply approach attack attacking came difference far game hard pressure timid
That's kind of their trademark, to play hard and apply pressure. I think we came out a little timid and didn't attack their pressure like we probably should have. And that was the difference in the game as far as our approach to attacking their pressure.
basketball contact fine game high needs school skill strong
I thought the refs were pretty consistent, so we're fine with that. There's certainly, I think, too much contact for a high school basketball game and I think that needs to be addressed because if you're not as strong physically, then you get leveraged under the basket or out of bounds. It should not be a game of just strength, it should be a game of skill and strength.
excited kids
Our kids are up for the challenge. We're pretty excited for that game.
good hang job putting
We managed to hang on. We didn't do a good job of putting them away when we could have.
bench brings
(Hand) comes off the bench and brings us a lot of energy. He was the difference-maker tonight.
bigger both defense establish game good hard lead offense playing stopped win worked
I just thought they had a bigger will to win at the end of the game than we did. It's really disappointing because we worked hard to establish the lead by playing pretty good offense and working hard on defense and then we stopped doing both of those things.
defensive five fourth game held kids proud quarter row seven stops turned
I'm really proud of our kids and their defensive effort. We held them to seven in the fourth quarter and we had about five defensive stops in a row in the fourth that turned the game for us.
great team
The encouraging thing is we got better each game. It was a great team effort.
