care execute good proud stretch team
I am really proud of what our team was able to do tonight. This was good for our team to execute down the stretch and take care of the ball.
careless couple game played smart won
I thought we had the game won on a couple of occasions. I don't think we played real smart down the stretch. We had some really careless turnovers uncharacteristic of how we've been playing.
basketball care commitment confident dealt decide decisions fairly hurry people pursuing request salary strong terms
I'm not pursuing other jobs, but I'm in no hurry to decide anything right now. I'm confident that the people who make those decisions will take care of them. My only request is to be dealt with fairly in terms of salary and a strong commitment to the basketball program.
care concern families guys known
The care and concern that these guys have for one another because of how long they have known each other and each other's families and their backgrounds, I think all of that makes a difference.
basketball careless close college couple decisions game minute occasions proper six won
College basketball is something, isn't it? I thought we had the game won on a couple of different occasions when we had 14-point leads. We made some careless turnovers. For about a six minute stretch, we didn't make the proper decisions to close the game out.
ben great man people send tried
We tried to send people stunting and tried to man up on him, but Ben had great feet.
against ball quick score tried
We tried to score a little too quick against their zone. We got the ball where we wanted, but we tried to score without getting the ball reversed.
man playing stop
We were playing man and couldn't really stop them.
determination five goes maybe might minutes opposed playing rest short week
We might just have to play Tyrus in short stretches. As opposed to playing him 12 or 14 minutes straight, maybe he can just go five and we'll take him out, let him rest and put him back in. The more he plays, the better he'll feel and the more comfortable he'll feel. We'll make more of a determination of that as the week goes on.
field foul free next night percent
We're usually 69, 70 percent at the line. If you're not making field goals, the next thing you try to do is try and make it up at the foul line. We had 28 free throws, but we couldn't make those, either. It was that kind of night for us.
against ball half mean nine patient points team time worked
We scored nine points and had 10 turnovers in the first half against a zone! When I tell the team to be patient I don't mean make 40 passes, just four. Every time we worked the ball around, we got it inside.
coaches eliminate extremely players tried trust
I've tried to eliminate that from my thought process. But I got it. Trust me. I got it from so many people. I got it. I know it was disappointing to us as coaches and to our players and extremely disappointing to our fans.
along ball critical far games good helped holds maybe moments shot shots timely
I've said all along that if our perimeter holds up, we're a pretty good team. So far our perimeter hasn't shot the ball as well as maybe we would have liked, but I think we've made some timely shots in critical moments of games that have helped our team.
games injury kevin lost matter player seven shoe
I've never had a player have an injury like that. Usually it's a matter of tightening up a shoe and gutting it out. We lost Kevin for seven games and he's still not 100 percent.
