easy gave shots
We had too many turnovers, gave up too many easy shots and didn't get back on defense.
bench came people
We got some people with some fouls so we had to use a lot more people off the bench and they all came to play.
played proud second stayed
I was proud of the way we played in the second half. We didn't do that many things better than in the first half, but we stayed tough.
catch losing
We can't catch a break, can't catch a call. Things aren't going our way. We've got to get out of this losing rut.
defense front good people played second start
We played better. We couldn't keep people in front of us in the first half. We had better defense the second half. We got off to a good start but we just couldn't keep it going.
beaten last motivation played serve three tournament
We've played Amarillo each of the last three years in the tournament and we've never beaten them so that should serve as some motivation for us.
district experiment floor game match normally win
We're going to try some things this game we normally wouldn't try in a district game. We're going to try to win the game of course, but we're going to experiment with different combinations on the floor to match up with (Midland High).
atrocious ball energy free good line near played shoot throw
I thought we played with a lot of energy, but we just didn't shoot the ball very well. We were atrocious at the line. We got some good free throw shooters there at the line near the end and that helped.
ball came defense open throw
I thought we came out really well offensively then we started to throw the ball away. We didn't read the defense and find the open man.
both came half offense played second teams trouble
I think we kind of played lackadaisical in the second half. I think both teams had trouble scoring. Most of our offense in the first half came from our defense.
ball good pass played player shoot team
I think (the Rams) are as good as any team we've played this season. They just play so smart. Every player they have can shoot and pass the ball real well.
came defense fast good grabbing played rebounds steals
That's as good as we've played all year. A lot of (the offense) came off our defense with some steals and grabbing some long rebounds which started fast breaks.
mean ought
I mean fourth-graders ought to be able to make 11 for 26 blindfolded. That's embarrassing.
behind catch concerned emotional hard played
I'm more concerned about how we played to get behind than with how we played to catch up. I think we got some conditioning in today. It's going to be really hard for us to come back with an emotional letdown.
