came finish fourth game games last league means playing somebody surprise three tough tournament
We did it, but it's tough to get all the way through. It won't surprise me to see somebody playing a fourth game in four days, the league is like that this year. This was the most games that came down to last three minutes, at least our most in 10 years and yet we were 27-2, which means we were there to finish the deal. But in a one-game tournament anything can happen.
bother degree fourth good kids semester three thrown
Out of 63 kids who had a fourth degree felony, three were thrown out of school, so the percentages were all in his favor. And he was thrown out for a semester for basketball. With that said, I didn't think he had a good game. I do think that things bother him.
craig flow game guard three
I think Craig will play more. That was just a game where we got into a flow with the big three kids. ... We thought we were going to use more guard play.
create guard guy others players three wings
We aren't overrated, we are misconstrued. We've got three big players and two wings but only one guard (Williams). We have to be able to create for others and we only have one guy that can do it.

Three out of 63 kids who committed the same act were thrown out of school. The percentage, quite frankly, was in his favor not to have it happen.

Brandon Roy, in my opinion, is one of the top two or three players in the country.
aspect good guard kids pass seniors three
They pass exceptionally well. They have three seniors and they have very good big people. The most disappointing aspect was that one-on-one, our two 6-10 kids could not guard their two 6-7 kids.
bad drops gives guy pass surrounded three throw
I told him I had him for a triple-double: 11, 11 and 11. The statistician, when you throw that bad pass to the guy who's surrounded by three people, gives it (turnover) to the guy who drops it. I don't.
ask changed choice couple game incredibly kids last minutes plays three trust whatever
It?s not Rashad?s fault, trust me. Whatever we ask our kids to do, it?s our responsibility. We make the choice of who plays who. ... I?m incredibly, incredibly disappointed in the loss, incredibly disappointed in myself. I would have changed a couple of things probably the last two, three minutes of the game and into overtime.

This is where our basketball culture stands. Whether I agree with kids leaving after two or three years really is of no consequence.

It's a bear. Three games in a row that will all be tough for different reasons. I just hope we're ready to go and we get through that.

good greatest guard mind point shooter takes three track worked
Rashad doesn't mind who he takes a three on. We put him at point guard and every play worked its way to be for him. That's kind of unusual. He will be on track to be the greatest 3-point shooter we've ever had here, and we've had some pretty good ones.
