ball care good happened problem taking
I don't know what happened to us offensively. It's been a problem for us all year, taking care of the ball and taking good shots. Obviously, we didn't do that today.
apply ball defense force great guards guy help inside job mike patient percent shooting side
Our guards did a great job of getting the ball to Mike at the beginning, which is what you want to do with a guy shooting 56 percent from the field. But then Mt. Carmel started to apply more defense to the help side and we started to force it inside and weren't patient enough.

Rodney was really active inside. He was keeping balls alive and giving us second and third chances.
ball basket cold guys inside open played problem taking zone
We wanted to go at them, but if we were open on the outside, I had no problem with us taking the 3. But we were cold outside, and our big guys went away from the basket when they got the ball inside (against Hale's 2-3 zone defense). We just played scared.
ball hard staring
The ball blinks, and it's hard to see. It's like staring at a strobe light.
ball best containing difference early giving last open shoot shots slow tonight
It was important to get going early on. Last time, we started slow and we didn't shoot the ball well. The difference tonight was defense, not giving them open shots and containing Johann (Jones) as best we could.

embodies game knows played poorly quit sports successful takes win
Top-to-bottom, this was a poorly played game on our part. We did not do the little things that have made us successful all year. However, we do have that 'no quit attitude' and Derek embodies that as much as anyone. From all his sports experiences, he knows what it takes to win in these high-pressure situations.
airline earnings economic fed good interest looking money near potential raising reflect stocks stories terrific until wait wise worries
When you are looking to put new money into investments, it's always wise to wait until you get a better sense that the Fed is very near the end of raising interest rates. But there are some terrific earnings stories in this market, and some of these earnings stories, at least in my opinion, already reflect a lot of the worries about potential economic problems. Airline stocks are a good illustrative example.
