afraid continue everybody kids seems struggle
I think once we struggle it seems that it just snowballs, ... Our young kids continue to play hard; they're kind of fearless. I think everybody else seems like they're just afraid to make a mistake.
hard positive seems spin though
When we started the season, even though we were losing, I thought we were making progress. Now, it seems like we're not making progress. It's hard to put a positive spin on it.
blocking good hard loose running seems setting watch
We watch every film and it seems like the same things are prevalent every night. Blocking out, getting loose balls, making hard cuts, setting good screens, running back.
plays run seems start
It seems when we get into a fight, we start going too much as individuals. I didn't see us run many plays at all.
game happen love played seem thousand
A lot of things that happen off the court, that I don't think are big deals, here seem to be magnified a thousand percent. It's part of it. But that's why I love being here, because if you ever played the right way, our game will be better for it.
five good last learn minutes points seem teaching
I was concerned. We made those last five minutes seem like a year. But there were a lot of good teaching points in that. We had breakdowns but managed to get a win. We can learn from it.
glad physically seems totally
Physically he got tired. He tried. He seems rusty, but that wasn't totally unexpected. I'm glad he got to play.
bit control extra good guys open playing running seems steve
We're playing under control a little bit better and not just running up and down the court. When you've got guys like Jalen and Steve who will make the extra pass, it just seems to open it up for everybody. I feel good about everybody's contribution.
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.
advantage player team
What team wouldn't want to take advantage of a player like that?
people team
What's the criteria? Make your team better. Then look at the record, the people around them and then make a decision.
