close dangerous hard played playing
They're still playing hard in every game. They've played everyone close at home. I still think they're a dangerous team.
found guys hung perfect point runs teams
They made their runs and most teams would have folded. They were up by one point and our guys hung in there. It's never perfect on the road, but we just found a way.
attack course middle mode people stop successful switch teams
They do something different than people see in the course of the year. They switch one through five. It makes you stop and not attack, but you have to be in attack mode and penetrate the middle of that thing. Teams that have been successful with penetration have had success.
coaching experience great head needs none randy ready until
Randy would do a great job, he's ready to be a head coach. I don't think he has a weakness. He just needs the opportunity. None of us had head coaching experience until we got our first chance.
point
Offensively, I'd say he's more of a point guard. Defensively, I'd say he's better off guarding a two.
game last night year
Pretty big-time night a year ago. This is the way it is right now. But this game was no more important last year than it is right now.
bought gotten great message players preached
If he's preached (balance), he's done a great job. The message has gotten through and his players have bought in.
andrew certainly heart last period short soul worthy
Andrew was the heart and soul of last year's team. For someone who accomplished so much in such a short period of time, I think Andrew is certainly worthy of the honor.
