You're going to be in front of full arenas from now on. I think you have to make that another whole season.

It's not going to be good when you have games taken away from your progress.
biggest cannot good job kids knocked middle stand teams
The biggest thing, when you play teams like this, you've got to stand in the middle of the ring. You cannot get on your heels. I told them before the game, 'We're going to get knocked down, you've got to get back up.' And I thought the kids did a good job of that.
ability game key moved pass
The key to the game for us was our ability to pass the basketball. We moved it better than we have in a long time.

Every game is such incredible pressure. That pressure is on both coaches and players.

Sammy to me is a guy who has to be healthy to play well. I'd rather come down on the side of safety.
looking sets
You're looking at two sets of standings. You're looking at who's winning, but you also look at the bottom.
