good loses nba people players seem team understand
People seem to understand even in the NBA when a really good team loses its players it's going to be a struggle,
defense good reason roll
We couldn't get anything to fall. Their defense was a good part of the reason we didn't make any shots, but we had some roll off.
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.
balls good seemed
It seemed like a lot of balls rolled right off the rim. We were getting some good looks. They just wouldn't fall.
boost confidence good last nice player plays remind tried
We've tried to remind him that he's a very good player and he can make plays for us. That's a nice boost for his confidence going into our last game.
cover cowboys few good government itself pension private situation social standards system written
This is Social Security, and the government is not going to get itself into a situation where it has to cover for a lot of cowboys out there, ... There will be standards and they probably will be written tighter...we have a pretty good private pension system and it's very regulated, and there are surprisingly few blow-ups.
coming course game good statement tyler
Of course Tyler coming into this game wasn't a first-team, all-league player. I would say he made a pretty good statement here tonight.
capable earn goes good guard handle hard point role starting tendency
He's going to have to earn it. I don't think, for a role that important, you just give it to somebody. I feel like I have a good handle on what he's capable of from a basketball-playing standpoint. But there's a lot more that goes into the starting point guard role for our team. I have a tendency to be hard on those guys.
georgia good liked night shoot
Thaddeus didn't shoot really well the other night, but the good thing about him is that he's not just a scorer. He can do other things, too. We also really liked his transcript. He's a Georgia Tech-type of kid.
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.
concentration concerns fallen good maintained playing
The concerns I've had is that defensively we haven't maintained our concentration. We've had some good spurts of playing good basketball, but we have not maintained the intensity, especially on defense. That's where we've really fallen down.
based basketball build business coaches college dirty entity experience kids learn positive school sleazy spirit statement together
The statement that college basketball isn't a business -- let's be real here. It can be a business that can be a very positive experience for athletes, coaches, for schools. Kids learn responsibility, coaches learn how to put together a team, and administrators learn how to build some momentum, build a lot of school spirit based on that one entity -- the program. It doesn't have to be a dirty word, something sleazy to say it is a business.
basketball fifth grade high kids mature physically player rates school sixth time
It wouldn't make any sense because there's just too much time between fifth or sixth grade and the time a player is a high school senior. Kids mature at different rates -- not just physically but with their basketball skills.
appreciate game people supposed
People don't appreciate the way the game is supposed to be played.
