attitude far improving passive past team teams themselves works
This team works better than other teams we've had in the past as far as improving themselves on the court, and the attitude is always positive. But this team has its own personality, and unfortunately, it's a passive one.
idaho san teams together
You'd think they'd put Fresno and San Jose together and then the two Idaho teams together, but we'll see how it goes.
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.
across built confidence early game hard pace saw stop team
Because we couldn't stop them early on and set the pace of the game, they built confidence as the game went on. It's hard to get across to your team that they're 0-8 but better than that, and we saw that.
bring depends guys special team willing
It depends on who else we bring (from recruiting). But what made this year's team so special is that we had guys willing to play different positions.
afraid team
That's the kind of team you're afraid of because you don't know which one will show up.
call confidence extension guard hot knows leadership offense point teammates
With the leadership and the confidence he has in his teammates and the unselfishness that he has as that point guard now, he's able to orchestrate. He knows who's hot and where they want to get it. He knows the offense well enough now to know what to call and it's like an extension of the bench.
beat effort full guys hard matter team time
We can't just show up and think we're going to win. We're having a hard time with guys out and all that, but so are they. No matter who's out there, we're the kind of team that has to give full effort or we can get beat by anybody.
cling fatigue helping instead man playing team tendency
When that fatigue hits, you have a tendency to cling to your man instead of helping and playing team defense.
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.
against matter nevada realized saw struggled team wins woke
Wins are always OK, no matter what they look like. I realized that when I woke up (yesterday) and saw that Nevada struggled the same way we did against a team from that same conference.
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.
basket gives guy guys rebound rest team
He's their go-to guy and the rest of the guys get around him and work. He comes up with a big basket or a big rebound and that gives the whole team energy. That's why they don't have the big lulls in there like we have.
cut host nevada pull struggled team work
In the past, the host team has struggled to pull it out. I would say Nevada has its work cut out.
