against beginning everybody extremely four games hope swept talked team wanting win won
They've won 22 games and they've won four against us this year. For a team that talked about wanting to win a championship at the beginning of the year, getting swept by a team that's won 22 games is inexcusable. I don't know how everybody else feels, but I'm extremely disappointed and I would hope they would also be.
chances coming felt game games gave good happened home huge road start

They did a good job of running the same play for him. He was tough because he was pulling up two and three feet behind the 3-point line. For any big guy, that's foreign territory to have to defend that.
eight figured found half halftime mixed obviously teammates took
They were a little more aggressive. I don't know if they were mixed up in the first half or what they were doing, but my teammates found me. Basically, I had eight dunks, so they obviously figured something out at halftime and took it away.

We've had pilot whales and mink whales and harbor porpoises, and we do see a change in behavior. He becomes a lot more vocal. He's a lot more active when these animals do show.
five gotten guys neighbors sake
After five years, I would think you guys would have gotten it right, for the sake of the neighbors.
athletic beat obviously positive
That's no excuse. Young and athletic is a positive for them, but then there's young and inexperienced for them. If we're not as athletic as them, we have to beat them with experience; and obviously we didn't do that.
