believe game heart possibly prepared sacred start talk tremendous until
Every game is a must game. That?s how we look at it. It would be tremendous (to start 3-0), but we don?t look at it as a two-game set. We won?t talk about Sacred Heart until we get back from LIU. We need to be as prepared as we possibly can be because I believe it?s more challenging on the road.
lenny lit performance
We got an outstanding performance from Lenny Jefferson, who lit it up early.
bad good great minutes played respond road
We got slapped around at Monmouth. We've played some great minutes and some bad minutes this season. I really don't know how good we are. We'll see on the road how we respond from the Monmouth experience.
gets good inside outside score shoot tremendous variety
A tremendous inside player. When he gets the ball, he can score in a variety of ways. He can take you outside and shoot a 3. He can face-up on the block. Then he's good around the hole. He's a very good player.
measure
You can measure height. But you can't measure heart.
concerns good inside league outside player threat
What concerns me is that they have a lot of weapons. They take the most 3-pointers in the league and they have a 3-point threat kind of team, but they also have a very, very good inside player in A.J. Jackson, probably as good as any inside player in the league. So they can take you outside and they can take you inside.
collection players stars work
We have a collection of players who just work hard. There are no stars on this team.
good home maybe mentally protecting team
Maybe the team is getting mentally tougher. We've been good at protecting our home turf.
confident couple foul line maybe needs rebounds shoot slump
Maybe he needs to get a couple of rebounds and get fouled and get to the line. I?m confident if we get to the foul line we can shoot our way out of this slump that we are in.
good happy justin lenny shots
Lenny and Justin were really terrific. They made shots and did a lot of good things. I was real happy for them.
among feeling good growing
We're growing as a team. We're working better defensively. There's a really good feeling among the players.
five games good keeping playing straight teams
We're playing pretty good ball, keeping teams for five straight games under 60 points.
giving hit shots
Steadiness. Lenny's not going to make a lot of mistakes. And he can hit shots and play defense. He's giving us a lift.
beat easy floor ran
I thought we got out and ran when we had to. We beat them down the floor at times and got some easy baskets when they were necessary.
