guys head pulled sloppy unlike
It got sloppy out there at the end. We pulled through. Guys were able to keep their head - unlike me - and we got a much-needed win.
pull
I was wrong, I was frustrated. I apologize. I just wanted to try to pull through and get us the win.
blake continue freshman fun game guys hopefully learned lots playing push since sophomore team understand year
Blake and I have been playing with each other since his freshman year and my sophomore year (at Maryland) so we have lots of fun playing with one another. We understand each other and the game. We've learned a lot since we've been in the game so hopefully we can continue to push the young guys on the team and hopefully we can continue to get better.
came good looked watched
I was right there and watched the whole time. It looked good -- just came up short.
certain expect guys
Certain guys take it personal. If I need to do something better, I expect someone to come tell me, because I can take constructive criticism. I don' think a lot of us can take it.
great guards point three top
Baron is one of the better guards in the league. He is probably one of the top three point guards. He is a great passer and he can also defend. ... He had a great day.
growing hopefully playing smart solid
We're growing up, man. We're growing up as a team. We're playing smart and we're solid for 48 minutes. Hopefully we'll keep on going in that direction.
aggressive both came coach drew ends games guys heart last played six struggled
We've struggled the last six games not getting any wins, so we wanted to come out with a lot of heart and be aggressive on both ends of the floor. Guys came out and we executed. Before the game, coach ( Nate McMillan ) drew a big heart on the chalkboard. He wanted to see what we were made of. We came out and played well tonight.
coach feels game good knowing last looking mark
It feels good going into each and every game knowing when you are going into the game, ... I know here, coach is looking to put me in around the three- or four-minute mark of the first quarter. Last year, I had no idea. You could never get a feel for the rotation.
basketball challenge defensive execute good guys hopefully learning principles supposed
I think guys are learning defensive principles and where they're supposed to be on the basketball court. So hopefully we can go out there and execute on the defensive end. It's a good challenge for us to see where we are.
defense easily streak winning
Our defense was great. Can't say enough about our defense. It's tough, because it easily could've been a five-game winning streak if we just executed better down the stretch.
both defense defensive definitely ends executing far game great last plan principles style team three
I think we're definitely getting close, as far as just executing his game plan -- his style of play on both ends of the floor. Great team defense the last three games. I think everybody's defensive principles are getting better.
against hard
Nah, it's just another game. I mean, yeah, I'm going back to play against my old team, but there aren't any hard feelings.
ball learn turned
I thought we turned the ball over a little too much, but it's something we can learn from.
