beat block create field free goal high line loose shots throw
We get beat on turnovers every night. We can't get to the free throw line as much as our opponent, we don't create turnovers or block shots (or) get loose balls. So that's the end result, we give up a lot of points, a high field goal percentage.
almost highlight richard seven six
We got killed and they got anything they wanted. It was almost like they were scripting plays. We didn't compete. There were about six or seven things that are going to be the highlight film. And we are the ones that are going to be in it with Vince, Richard and Jason.
great high level limited nights players
Two great players had spectacular nights and we competed at a high level with a limited group.
confidence guys high minutes night playing sensitive stop trying
I've had confidence we were going to be better, but I didn't know who to play. I think you get sensitive trying to find out who's going to get minutes each night and you stop coaching. A lot of guys have contributed and are playing at a high level.
asking high might playing reflect terms
It wasn't only him (who was injured) at the time. But he was playing at such a high level. The first 30, 40 games, I thought he got better every game. His stats might not reflect that, but just in terms of what we were asking him to do. It set us way back and it set him way back.
archery black bring decided high hispanic numbers saw throughout traveled
Over the years, as I traveled throughout the archery circuit, I saw there weren't high numbers of black or Hispanic participants. I decided to make a difference, to bring this sport to our neighborhoods.
gave guard highlight plays seven six
There is no way you can guard if you don't compete. We gave up about six or seven plays that will be on highlight film.
aggressive carry certainly decision difference feels high level played playing since worry
I think to play him and have this thing carry on is really unfair. I want it to be his decision (to come back) when he feels comfortable he can play and not worry about getting hit, because he certainly hasn't played the same way since the injury. He's not aggressive at all. You can really tell the difference because he was playing at such a high level before that.
ask competing everybody high honestly
I honestly think that if you ask each one of them they'd tell you they're competing at a high level. I don't know if everybody understands that we need everybody doing that every possession, especially when we're shorthanded, we're young and inexperienced.
expect fair highlight point
He's not a point guard, ... Right now, he's a highlight film. And it's not fair to him right now. We didn't expect him to have to be our point guard.
advantages against athletic caught playing score team tried
We tried to score too fast. Against an athletic team like them, that's tough. I thought we had advantages if we could go inside, but we just got caught up playing their tempo.
caught guard quick steve strong
We just want ballplayers. I don't get caught up in positions. I think Steve is strong enough to guard twos and quick enough to guard ones.
ball caught guard quick steve strong
We just want ball players. I don't get caught up in positions. I think Steve is strong enough to guard 2s and quick enough to guard 1s.
chance stopping trouble
We just had trouble stopping them from scoring. I don't even think we had a chance to put them away.
