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.
ball gave moved open road shots tempo
We moved the ball great, got a lot of open shots because we gave the ball up. Controlling the tempo on the road is the way we've got to play.
ball everybody gave great moved nicest open people playing quality road shots tempo together trying win
It's a quality win for us on the road. We moved the ball great and got a lot of open shots because we gave the ball up. Controlling the tempo on the road is the way we've got to play ... You look at the stat sheet, and the nicest thing for me is I feel like a lot of people are playing together and trying to make everybody better.

We started playing a little fast. We missed a lot of really good shots and I thought we got a little tight. We forgot time and score.

ball open shots
He got the ball to people. Look at all the open shots they got.
aggressive create eight good looking plays shots
I reiterated to him that he can't have seven, eight shots a game. He's got to be looking to make plays . . . The more aggressive he is looking to take shots, the better he'll become. I want him to take as many good shots as he can, and by doing that, he'll create for others.
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.

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.

We just had trouble stopping them from scoring. I don't even think we had a chance to put them away.
