annual games good guys home
It's a good thing; good for the guys to get some home games early. We'll want to make it an annual thing.
aaron bit changes definitely great lead nice star
It would have been nice to go down and have the lead one time. That sometimes changes the mind-set - you look at it a little bit different. But we don't know what would have changed. Aaron made two great plays. He was definitely the star of the game.
accept anybody deal difficult effort failure focus game greater helps plays practice prepared scouting seen since sure sustain toward
I've seen since Pac-10 started a greater focus in practice toward the game plan, the scouting report. He's absorbing more. The more anybody invests into something with a commitment; you don't accept failure as easy. You are better prepared to sustain effort and focus. It sure helps us when he plays like that. He's more difficult to deal with.
seen shoot shot
I've never seen them shoot that well. They shot us right out of the fight.
believed believer convinced depend existence strongly till truth
A thing is not the truth till it is so strongly believed in, that the believer is convinced that its existence does not depend upon him
danger defense stay zones
The turnovers were a combination of Washington's defense and us. You've got to know where the traps, the danger zones are, and we didn't stay out of the traps.
continue guys knife pure
The turnovers have been killing us before and they continue to knife us. The guys are uncomfortable on offense, plain, pure and simple.
country elite guards
They demonstrated why they are two of the elite guards in the country.
drives great guy hard nba player strong
It was great (defense). An NBA (caliber) player drives off a 6-foot-9 guy and does a step-back, going to his right, which is hard for a right-handed player, you have to be really strong to do that. It was great defense.
figure hit program winning
They will hit their stride, because the program is used to winning and they will figure it out.
bad defend deserve games happy hard interested practice run season team understand winning work
It wasn't that he had a bad attitude. He had no attitude. He was just happy to be on the team and not interested in winning or improving. He didn't understand how hard you had to work in practice at this level. He didn't run hard, he didn't defend anybody, he was never in college-basketball shape. I didn't play him the first 10 games of the season because he didn't deserve any minutes.
amazing bad best command growth last playing
It's unfortunate for him. He's playing the best he's ever played. It's amazing the growth he's made in the last month. And the command he has. So I feel bad for Lamar.
defense leading seen shoot shot team
They were exceptional. I've never seen them shoot like that. We're the leading 3-point defense team in the Pac-10 and they shot us right out of the fight.
created five hit point second since squeeze start teams throwing time weeks
They put the squeeze on us the second half. And for the first time since Northwestern State, five weeks ago, we hit a point where we cracked. When teams start throwing dunks down, there's a point there where they created a competitive edge.
