assigned ball chance fast miss nearly push time
They will push the ball nearly every time down the floor. They will push on a make or a miss. When we miss they have a better chance of getting into their fast break. Defensively, we will have to communicate because sometimes we won't be guarding our assigned man.
excessive kids knew passive pressure talk
It was very important and we did talk about it. We knew it was important, but I didn't want to put excessive pressure on the kids so they were passive on offense.
defended fast foul hurt matt michael starters tempo trouble type
We had two of our starters down for most of the game. I thought they defended Matt (Weeks) well. It was a pretty physical, fast tempo type of game. Keith (Jones) in foul trouble hurt us, obviously. Michael (Warren) in foul trouble hurt us still.
decisions quick
We have to make better decisions. We need to know when to be quick and when to be patient.
concerned conference matt tournament
Matt was always concerned about conference and tournament championships. He was never really concerned about all-conference selections or all-tournament teams.
bonus early game hard kids picked played quick second third
We picked up some quick fouls in the third and put them in the bonus very early in the second half. But, I thought the kids there at the end of the game played very hard and put on a show. They played very well.
confidence kyle plays tremendous
When Kyle plays with confidence he is a tremendous player.
certainly continues dunk finished great hit hurt lift mistakes needs people player sophomore teams variety weights work
When people see a 6-foot 4 or 6-foot 5 player hit a three-pointer or dunk they think they see a great player. Isiah will become a great player if he continues to lift weights and work in the off-season and do the things he needs to do. He's certainly not a finished product. He is just a sophomore and makes mistakes but he can hurt opposing teams in a variety of ways.
defense time
It's not as if we didn't know Welch could shoot. Every time we made a run, our defense would let down.
bucket four good lead momentum next three
We regained the lead and regained the momentum and we had some pretty good looks. Even with the lead at 23-22, we had some good looks. We just couldn't get it to fall. You kind of had a sense that if we could ever get up three or four we'd be in really good shape. But, we just couldn't get that next bucket in.
improvement reason room weight work
The reason for his improvement was the work he put in in the weight room during the off-season.
enjoy light matter practice records season zero
We'll enjoy this tonight, have a very light practice (Saturday), we'll enjoy it. Monday, when we come in it's over.Everybody is back to zero and zero, no matter what their records are or what they've done all season long.
angles ball county flow hamilton pass played
We didn't have any flow because Hamilton County played their tails off. They are well-disciplined on offense, and with their defense, we couldn't pass the ball to where we wanted because of double-teams, and the different angles (Hamilton County) showed.
came ethic impressed learned letting lost might next positive practice ready room season taken took weight work
Someone told me that after we lost in the sectional final, Isiah was in the weight room for two hours. He might have been letting off some frustration or getting ready for next season. Hopefully, he'll use this season in a positive way. What impressed me about Isiah was the way he came to practice everyday. He took that from the seniors. He's taken their work ethic and learned that from them already.
