heels stopped
I just think we stopped attacking. We started getting tentative, getting on our heels and used up all our timeouts.
ball bringing fellow freshman friend game genius mine nba played realize remember team
I remember one game we played and the team was pressing us and I had him bringing the ball up the court. A fellow coach, a friend of mine called me and said, 'Either you're a genius or you're crazy. How do you have a 6-10 freshman bringing the ball up the court? Don't you realize that every NBA team will see that?

Certainly what we're discovering all over the world right now ? that the entire industrial world looks like it's poised to enter into a serious deficit problem.
earlier gifted last starting understand year
He's starting to understand some of the little things you have to do. He's a talented, gifted scorer who can rebound. Defensively, off the ball, he's much, much better than he was last year or even earlier this year.
I don't know if we wanted it, but Clemson wanted it more than us.
care field good great rare works
He's unbelievable. It's rare to find such an all-around player. He's a good student, he's a good person, he's a great player, he works at his game, he's humble. I don't care what field you're in, it's rare to have a person that has that combination.

He's an outstanding player. The thing you like about him is that he's gotten better every year.

We said if someone's going to beat us, let him be the guy. We didn't want him to be that wide open, but they have a lot of shooters.
air ball force job mario point touches west
We need to do a better job of getting the ball in his hands. That's something we did not do well in the Air Force game. It's something we made a point of today, especially with Mario West out, to try to get him more touches and more involved. I still think, actually, he can get some more shots.
begins ends good role scoreboard successful understand
The good ones understand that their role begins and ends with the scoreboard. The scoreboard will tell you if you've been successful or not. That's it.
mistakes obviously played
We obviously played pretty well for the first 35 minutes. But we made some mistakes and some breakdowns we just couldn't overcome.
equation games panic
We can't panic. We have a lot of games left. Panic can't be a part of the equation here. We have to keep working at it.
boxing chance leave transition
When you don't do the little things - the boxing out, the transition defense, all the things you have to do - you leave it to a chance or you leave it to a bounce.
passing point react sheet
You look at the stat sheet and see we had 27 turnovers, I don't think there's anything else I can point to. They're long and they really got out in the passing lanes, and we didn't react to it very well.
