believe challenge extremely pass possession seen tempo
Typically, they pass about 20 times each possession when they get it on offense. So they're extremely deliberate. That's something that we haven't seen a lot of down in this area, so it'll be something new to us. I believe the challenge is getting the tempo up to where we want it to be.
four gave played points rest three
We didn't play very well defensively in the first quarter. We gave up 18 points in the first three or four minutes, but we played better the rest on the game.
changes christmas far half kelly says
We didn't play very well at the Christmas tournament. And we had to make some changes at half because we were down 15. To come back from that far down at Kelly says a lot about our character.
speak
It was a little out of the ordinary. Usually they have a translator, or they speak English.
ahead district game love prepared seniors south three title tough win
These seniors have been in three district finals. We're as prepared as we can be (for the title game). I'd love nothing more than to win a district title, but we've got a tough game ahead of us (against South Iron).
ball captain great inside job knees last leading open role taken team
He's (Limbaugh) done a great job for us. His knees are bad, he's really hurting, and he was one of our leading scorers from last year. But he has taken on the role of team captain and has done a great job with it. He really distributes the ball well inside to open people. He's a great passer.
rebound
Not just a whole lot. We just have to go down and defend, do what we can do and rebound the basketball.
against battle battling bell city credit dexter early energy fourth game giving hard kept kids last middle start tired
I think my kids were a little tired from last night, we had a hard battle with Bell City and Dexter battled hard against Puxico, but I think through the middle of the game the energy was down a little bit. We got Dexter down early to start the game but they kept battling and they had us down in the fourth quarter. I have to give our kids credit for not giving up there at the end.
bigger block good guy hard job kids taller
I think our kids did a good job (against Bogan). He's a big guy -- he's bigger than us, taller than us, and our kids battled. That's all I can ask. He's hard to block off.
best far great hit percent shot
It was by far the best we've shot from out there. We hit over 50 percent of our 3-pointers, and that's just a great percentage.
ball district glad missed normally shoot shots tough
They're a tough team. They didn't shoot the ball well tonight. They missed some shots that they normally hit. I'm glad to come away with a win. Like I said, it will be big for district seeds.
basketball best guys passing team
That's really been one of our strengths, passing the basketball. These guys play so unselfishly. This is the best passing basketball team I've coached.
career create good job score throughout
That's something he's always done well throughout his career is penetrate and be able to score and create off that. He's done a good job of that this year.
bench contribute course eight guys helped hopefully led rest scoring seven throughout
That's one thing that's helped us out throughout the course of the year. We've had seven or eight guys that have led us in scoring this year. (We have) guys that can come in off the bench and contribute a lot of minutes. Hopefully that's one of the things that will help us out the rest of the way.
