ability bigger execution guard guy mitchell needed ourselves physical rhythm seemed struggling
I think the ability of Felix to guard Darrel Mitchell as he did -- a bigger guy, a physical guy on Darrel -- we never really got ourselves in a rhythm on offense. It seemed like to me we were always struggling on offense. For the most part, our execution wasn't where it needed to be.
agreed final maybe seem store talking walking
We're going to the Final Four. That's where it all is. But when I was just talking with Glen walking down the hall, he agreed with me. For some reason, this doesn't seem like the end to me. Maybe there's something more in store for this team.

ball blossoming consistent defends extremely good key mitchell point quite ratio role scoring seems
Darrel Mitchell seems to be kind of blossoming in that role and flourishing as a point guard. His assist-to-turnover ratio is quite good (4.6 assists to 2.9 turnovers a game). He defends well.

basket blocking defensive gift guy player protect teams timing wonderful
When you have a player like Tyrus, a guy who can just roam around a basket and protect you from defensive mistakes, it allows you to do things other teams can't. He has a wonderful gift for timing when blocking shots.
awful element guess
When you do back away and look at it, we are awful young. I guess there is a little element of surprise.

When Brandon called me on the phone and said he was going to put his name in the draft -- and he couldn't come back, since he had tested the waters a year ago -- the first call I made was to Glen Davis, ... And I told Glen, 'Brandon's putting his name in the draft' -- and Glen had kind of suspected that already -- 'and now it's on you.' I said, 'You wanted to be the man -- now you are the man.'
hit knew offense outside
We knew that if we were to win, we were going to have to hit some outside shots. But we never could get offense going from the outside. We were 0-for-6 from three-point range.
