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.
billy committed good stay today
Billy (Donovan) was committed today to stay with Darrel. That's good coaching.
defense foul games good impressive last lose point seen teams took tough traveled until
The thing that was most impressive to me is we didn't foul on the last shot. And I've seen teams lose games because they're undisciplined and they foul. He took a tough shot. I thought he traveled before he shot. Our team did the five-switch defense on their own, which was good for them to be able to do, considering up until that point we hadn't really made too many good decisions.
contest duke few five good guys handling heels job knew minutes nice seven tone work
We did a nice job of handling the first five to seven minutes of the game. We told our guys Duke was going to come out in those first few minutes and try to get us on our heels and that if we could work through that we'd be in good shape. That's what happened. A tone was set and I think they knew they were in for a contest all night.
basketball beat college given good team tournament
I think on any given night, any good college basketball team can beat another one, particularly in a tournament situation.
close compliment good
We just were not good enough to close it out. That's a compliment to Florida, too, because they made it a little more difficult.
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.
against credit defense defensive good performance played year
We played good defense all year long and we got a lot of credit for it against Duke. We had to have another defensive performance tonight.
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.
ball foul good inside shoot six throw time
We throw the ball inside every time down the court, and we shoot six foul shots. That's pretty good guarding to me.
ball bump comfort coming defense double good screens team time tried unique zone
We were going to double team him on ball screens and not let him get a comfort zone of coming off the screen with the ball. We were going to bump him every time he tried to go through the lane. The unique thing about it, you can play good defense, but when you can play good defense aggressively as we did without fouling, I think that's a key.
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.
against coming good mill team tough
Old Mill is a very good team. We just went on these stretches where we couldn't score. It's tough to keep coming back from 10 down against a good team like that.
dead gets good guard hate outlet playing shots sprint three
Darrel's been very good at getting shots in transition. When he gets it on an outlet pass, he is so fast. He can make a three on the dead sprint or if you go out on him, he'll go right by you and take it to the hole. I would hate to have to guard Darrel Mitchell, especially the way he was playing in the first half.
