aaron clock easy efficient good inside missed patience second shots wear
We were very efficient in the second half. We wanted to get it inside to Aaron from the start. We missed some easy ones early. Our patience was good in the second half. We used the clock and got shots at the end of the clock, which can wear down teams. We really had good clock management.
aaron ahead highly players
If you remember, Aaron wasn't highly recruited. Look at him now. He's better than a lot of the players recruited ahead of him.
aaron moving
But I told Aaron that it's over and we're moving on.
aaron carefully considered continue counseling decision information logical next sought step support
Aaron carefully considered this decision and sought the right information before making it. We've been counseling him each step of the way and will continue to do so over the next two months. This is a logical step for Aaron to take and we will support him wholeheartedly.
aaron best continue foul game guys hands played playing prettiest trouble usual
It wasn't our prettiest game. It was tough, and we battled through. We had guys in foul trouble. Aaron and Carl played the whole game with their hands in their pockets. We played our usual rotation, playing a lot of guys, and it benefited us a lot. We'll continue to do that. It's the best thing for this group. So many guys made big plays.
aaron bit slight
It wasn't too much, it was a slight adjustment. We wanted to keep Aaron a little bit more around the basket.
aaron against couple finished freshman great passes played playing previous sam second virginia west
Sam played well against West Virginia the previous two games. He finished well in the second half. He got great passes from Aaron a couple of times. He's just a freshman playing against seniors. That's why he's getting better.
aaron logical step support
This is a logical step for Aaron to take, and we will support him wholeheartedly.
anxious battle calmed clock defense good great hard job last played ranked running rushed shots size tested towards win
This was a great win for us. I think we were anxious at first and rushed a bit. But we calmed down and played a great last 30 minutes. They're a very good team, ranked 19th in the RPI, so they're battle tested and very well coached. Their size and versatility make them hard to play against. I thought we did a good job offensively, especially running the clock at the end and getting great shots towards the end of possessions. Our defense still has a long way to go though.
defend everybody guard knows secret
We've got to defend and guard the perimeter. There's no secret there. Everybody knows that.
We've just got to keep doing the things that we're doing and keep getting better.
guy knew might pass
We knew that he might not get the assist, but he would probably pass it to the guy who would set it up.
knew
We knew it would come down to the end.
against best compete guys people practice prove
We're not really out to prove anything to people. We play to compete. These guys like to play against the best people and they like challenges. They compete here in practice and it doesn't really change.
