arizona backed bit couple hard physical played three time
Every time in the three years that we have been here that we played Arizona State, it has been a physical war. A couple of times there were some stand-offs, some hard fouls, a little bit of jawing. They haven't backed down and we won't back down. They're going to play with a lot of intensity.
angeles games guys hard job los people ucla understand winning
I don't know the people in Los Angeles understand the job UCLA is doing winning games with all those guys banged up. That's hard to do.
against biggest challenge difficult hard since
They are probably the biggest challenge for us since we've been here at Washington. It's difficult to play against them because they are so hard to guard.
college felt given great hard involved opportunity percent sixth turn
I would say that 90 percent of everyone involved with Martell felt like it would behoove him to go to college initially. But he was given such a great opportunity as the sixth pick, it was hard for him to turn down.
early harder stays
I don't think there is a harder worker. He comes early and stays late. He's just a sponge.
liked
I liked you a lot better as a coach.
ball contact floor foul helped huge
It was huge because we have players, especially like Brandon, that can put the ball on the floor and drive. And if there was any contact it was a foul so it helped us tremendously.
conference game means second slice tournament whatever whether
I want to make this clear. Whether it's for the Pac-10 Conference tournament championship, Pac-10 championship or second place, whatever it is, this is a big game to us. It means a lot to us, whatever way you slice it.
few good next quite sure
I'm not quite sure how good we are. We'll find out here in the next few weeks, I guess.
happy kept simple worked
I'm very happy for him. He's kept it simple and worked hard.
finger hypnosis jon snapped
It was like someone snapped their finger and the hypnosis was over, and he went back to being Jon Brockman.
point recover seen teams
It's important at this point that we don't take a nosedive. I've seen teams not recover from it.
afford again couple happen reason toe
That's another reason why this was such a big game. We stubbed our toe a couple of times early, and we couldn't afford to let that happen again this weekend.
ball five four gave good guard hit second shooting shots sudden
Their first four or five shots were uncontested in the second half. If someone is not shooting the ball well, you can't say, 'Let's not guard him,' because they hit one or two, all of a sudden they get on a streak. We gave them too many good looks.
