biggest caught energy last missed shooting week
The biggest thing I told (Anderson) is that he can't get caught up in the shooting and scoring. He got tentative last week because he missed some shots. We don't need (him) to make shots. We need (him) to do the energy stuff.
biggest dove game missed
The biggest play for me was when Darius missed the 3, then dove for the ball. We're up (six) and that's the game right there.
bit bump feet grab holding missed ton whether
Whether it was because of a bump or a grab or a hold, we were 13-of-36 (shooting) from two feet (of the basket). That's the thing right now that's holding us back a little bit ... (but) we missed a ton of them.
edge game missed shots
They (UAB) didn't go away, and they had shots to get right back into the game and missed some shots late. I thought the rebounding edge is what put us over the top.
half missed near second
The first half we missed 14 two-footers. At some point, we've got to make those shots. In the second half we made them, but you've got to make the ones that are near the basket. You can't miss them all.
ball feet front grab means missed ton understand whether
You understand that means you have the ball two feet in front of the rim. Whether it was because of a bump, a grab or a hold, we were 13-for-36 (inside). We just missed a ton of them.
nice thinking worked
It would be nice if it worked out. But we're not thinking that way.
graduates record second women
I second the motion. His record is spotless. He graduates every kid. He doesn't look at other women. He doesn't smoke.
basketball bothered guard heck tape zone
The zone bothered us more than it should have. Our guard play was very tentative. I don't know why. ... We will have to go look at the tape and take a look at it. But, it was a heck of a basketball game.
nobody
There won't be any crime. There won't be any accidents, because nobody will be on the streets.
carolina enjoy happen happens kick north year
Enjoy it. Take a breath, kick back and enjoy. Because this doesn't happen every year at Memphis. It happens at Kentucky, Duke, North Carolina and those other programs. It doesn't happen at Memphis.
decision kids season second
During the season, every decision I make will be about the team. The second that season is over, it is all about the kids on the team.
coaching fun people
People thought I was crazy. I've had more fun coaching this style.
absolute defense joey
Our defense was phenomenal. Joey Dorsey was an absolute monster, and we need him to be a monster.
