energy guys home seems
Everything seems to come back when you're at home. The guys have been working hard. You can see they have more energy here.
forward games home left looking needs regular road seven team wants win
We have only seven games left in the regular season, and we can't keep looking forward only to the home games. This team needs to win on the road if it wants to get recognized.
amazing difference home showing toughest
It's amazing what a difference being at home makes in this league. We have the toughest travel, but its showing in other teams, too.
although beat both chance definitely finish high home teams
We still have a chance to finish as high as second, and definitely third, although there are a lot of tie-breakers involved. But we just have to go home and play both those teams and beat them.
chance home move
We're at home and we've got a chance to move up in the standings, so it's big.
couple everybody help home plays practices
I don't know if it makes a difference, because everybody plays better at home in this league. But we'll still get a couple of practices in so that should help us a little bit.
behind crowd depends game home looking maybe
I don't want to see him get another 37 and 15, especially at home where the crowd will get behind him. We're looking at some double-teams, maybe some zone. It depends how the game goes.
loss second tied
It was very important. We're tied for second on the loss side.
exactly game perfect
It was a perfect game for us. This is exactly what we needed.
couple games gotten kept led lost question seniors starts time top work year
The seniors have led the way, there's no question about that. There was a time during the year when we lost a couple games that they could have gotten down, but they never did that. They just went to work and really kept it going. It all starts at the top with the leadership.
coaching focused pleased remember stayed staying team time
I've been coaching a long time and I really don't remember one where we trailed the whole time. But I was pleased with my team for staying focused the whole time. We just stayed there and stayed there.
factor fatigue good help reasons
I use it to help them get hungrier. There are reasons for that (domination in Reno). They're good and there's the fatigue factor (playing at Reno's 4,500-feet elevation).
tv worst worth
The worst part about it is that payback game. And when you don't get a TV game, it doesn't feel worth it.
dunk kids
The way kids think today, a dunk is a big thing. They all want to do it.
