dream focused good lose played season stay teams
It's been a dream season for us. We played a lot of the good teams in the county. To only lose once and go out and stay focused each night, I think that is pretty impressive.
good group happy hard history work
As a team, we've got a lot of character. I'm very happy with that. They work hard and have a history of being good students. I feel very comfortable with this group of guys.

I thought we had some good individual efforts, but overall they dominated us.

His skill level has improved because of his improved strength. Demetrius, he shoots it fairly well from 15-foot range, he's very effective around the basket and he's done a very good job defensively blocking shots.

attack hitting lead lose missing paid played points protect report scouting second
The scouting report was that they get most of their points in the paint. We didn't attack their shooters early, and we paid for it. When they were hitting early, we were missing some bunnies. . . . In all fairness, I think (Jones) played not to lose and just protect its lead (in the second half) and that played to our advantage.
almost assignment basically deny draws game job toughest
Enrique draws the toughest (defensive) assignment almost every game for us. His job was basically to just deny (Holmes) the ball.

Brian just had one of those nights. He had a tremendous game. We know he's capable of it. He had an opportunity to showcase himself on a bigger stage.
confidence games last late looked recognized stretch team unselfish weight won year
Down the stretch we won a lot of games late and that was key. Xavier had more confidence this year in his teammates' ability. Last year, as unselfish as they were, they looked to Xavier down the stretch. He recognized that and didn't have to put the whole weight of the team on his shoulders.
four kept points thinking worst
We've kept it a secret. As a coach, I didn't want him thinking about it. Now that he only has four points to go, it's not the worst thing in the world that he knows.
everybody kids pleasantly stuff together
I was pleasantly surprised. We were only able to have two practices, only one of them with everybody there. Still, these kids have been together so long, they know this stuff and they know what to do.

Mergers and acquisitions and start-ups are, in actuality, a form of market expansion. Therefore, growing the business in new, high-potential markets is clearly a desired outcome of using international assignments in Europe as a key staffing strategy.

We have another shot at a player. Last year he was physically immature. This year he came back taller, stronger and his skills were better.
