best defensive effort team
That was the best defensive effort I've had a team play.
against effort fly good happy hard overall played talented team
We played hard all night. I thought we did some very good things on the fly against a talented team tonight. I am happy with the overall effort that we gave.
adjust ball best coming couple defensive effort game good guard handle screens team ways works
We've got to have a good team defensive effort on him. It will be about how we handle him coming off screens without the ball and how we handle him when he comes off screens with the ball. There'll be a couple of different ways that we'll try to guard him, and we'll see which one works the best as the game progresses and adjust as we go.
best defensive effort seen
That may have been the best defensive effort I've seen in one of my teams.
best defensive effort guide nice since stressed team tried
It was the best defensive effort I've ever had a team play. It's something we've stressed since I've been here. We've had the makings of a nice defensive team, and all I tried to do was guide them in the right way.
ball effort pressure protect
That effort was not something you coach, but it's something you recruit. He allows us to put more pressure on the ball and let him roam and protect the basket.
carrying effort fine job players team temple wonderful
Garrett Temple did a wonderful job, but our other players did a wonderful job of carrying out the plan. It was as fine an effort as I've ever had a team play.
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.
