banging basket blocks finished good guys job presence
Curtis was big time. He had some blocks and some rebounds. His presence was felt. He finished around the basket very strong. He was banging around with two 6-7 or 6-8 guys much of the night, too. So he did a good job defensively as well.
cut games teams three toughest work
We got our work cut out for us, with the three games and the three toughest teams out there.
ahead
Sometimes you can get ahead by too much too early. To Brownsburg's credit, they showed a lot of composure.
central conference county friday games gave guys incentive indiana lawrence nice successful surprise win year
That was a nice little surprise that the guys over at Lawrence Central gave us. (Winning Conference Indiana titles) is something we've been very successful with. Every year you try to win as many games as you can, but the conference and (Marion) County (Tournament) are big deals. There'll be a little more incentive Friday night.
control tempo tough
That's a tough way to play because they do control tempo so well.
both eight games guys nine playing together
Those guys have been playing together eight or nine games now, so we have a better idea of what each other is doing out on the court, both offensively and defensively.
anyone basketball game games gets good high impact knowing known mike played school seen
Oden has more impact on a high school basketball game than anyone I've ever seen or have known of. Then you (have) Conley there with him. (Oden) gets enough on his own around the basket, but Mike is so good of knowing where (Oden) is at. They've played so many games together.
chemistry
We need better chemistry (on the court). We need to get everyone on the same page.
ball behind good handle knew patient schooled team tight win
We knew it was going to be a tight game. It's a good win for us. They're a very patient team. They're schooled very well. They're not a team you want to get behind because they do handle the ball so well.
alter anybody block game impact inside seen
It's all about Oden. We didn't even take inside shots, because if he doesn't block them, he's going to alter them. I've never seen anybody impact a game like him.
fantastic five games gotten great guys hopefully lawrence love plays press shooting shoots team win year
It's been a great year. I've got a team that plays the way I love to coach. I love to full-court press. We play five guards. We love to run. I've got a team that shoots 50 percent, and I love shooting the basketball. This has been a fantastic team. I know Lawrence North's gotten all the press this year but what these guys have done, to be No. 2 in the state, win 20 games and hopefully some more . . . they've just been unbelievable.
hard
It's a relief. We had to go the hard way (to the title).
basketball ben best draw eight good northwest played playing recently route tuesday won
It's a challenging draw for us. We've got to take the long route (with a Tuesday game), but the good thing is we've just recently played Northwest and we've played Ben Davis. We've also won eight in a row, and I think we're playing our best basketball of the year.
experience learning talked
It's a learning experience for him. We talked about it with him and got him back in (the game).
