against continue passes pick run supposed team timing
Every team that comes in here now will try it against us. If we continue to not make the passes we're supposed to, if our timing is off, we're going to continue to struggle. But if we run it the right way, we'll pick them apart.
came couple dropped fire hit last locker room run shots
We came out of the locker room with a little fire, but it didn't last very long. Kemp hit a couple of shots on us when we were making a run and we dropped our heads.
bit game late playing road running second
Second game of a road trip, and then playing in a little bit of altitude, you don't want to get in a running game late in the game like we did and I think that got to us.
defense energy ready run
We have to be ready on defense again. They like to run in transition, and they'll play with a lot more energy at home.
problem run
With Ahmet and Stephen in there, that's two big bodies. But we don't want to run into the problem we had this year, so we still need depth.
run seem
It's another one of those things. We always seem to run into something on the road.
cutting run standard stuff work
They run a lot of standard stuff. We have to work more on our stuff ? cutting down the turnovers, especially.
above floor run size
They give us size at every position, and that's our advantage. But it's not just that. They all run the floor well and can play above the rim.
bit looking offense run selfish
That's where they're getting a little bit selfish with it, I think. They're not looking to run the offense like they were earlier.
confidence game games gives hang offense ran run shoot stretch tried win worked
It gives you confidence that you can hang in games and come back and win them. Before, we tried to play a different game down the stretch on the road, run and shoot them out. (Last week) we ran our offense and worked it and did a much better job.
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.
