against credit defense drought gave good hard hit hole major played plays solid tough type
We hit a major drought and I give a lot of credit to their defense. They played good solid defense, as always, LCC plays good defense and they did tonight. It's hard to overcome. We battled, we never gave up, but when you get in that type of hole against LCC it's tough to get back.
ball capable dribble good hit job knocked needed nice open plays randy run shots stepped tight
Brownie stepped up and did hit some big shots when we needed them, because it was a very tight ball game. He got open and knocked them down like he's capable of doing. Randy did a very good job of creating, making plays off the dribble and finishing. It was a nice run for us. We needed it.
foul free good hope miss pray shots strategy stretch team teams throws
That's what a good team does, they make their free throws down the stretch and they did that. That's a strategy you use when your down at the end and you hope and pray they miss their foul shots and they didn't. That's what good teams do, they make them.
coaches feels good group hard kids preparing watching work
It feels great. A lot of hard work scouting, preparing and watching film, but more importantly there is a lot of good coaches out there that don't have a group like I have. If you don't have kids like I have this year, there is no way we could be doing the things we're doing now.
ball composure early effort eventually game good great himself kept open points quite score stayed teammates throughout within
He (Reed) had a great night. He kept his composure throughout the game and stayed focused. Early things weren't quite going his way, but he stayed within himself and then eventually things started to open up for him and good things happened. His teammates got him the ball and there is no way he could score those points without his teammates making that effort to get him the basketball.
ask days defense five games good kids three
Three games in five days is a lot to ask out of these kids and I think this was a combination of that, their good defense and us being a little fatigued.
example god good heck players smart thank
This is an example of when you have good players that make you look smart as a coach, because they didn't do what the heck I told them. Thank God for that and thank God they went and made a play.
bigger carried deficit good kept locker overcome playing telling
He carried us and we just got done telling him that in the locker room. We were not playing very good and a lot of that was because of Bath's defense, but Brandon kept us in it. Without him it would have been a bigger deficit that we would have had to overcome had he not been playing.
ball bit defense focused good guys inside needed runs special sure tried turned
Guys just focused a little more, we executed a little bit better and we got the ball inside where we needed to. We didn't do anything special to have those runs other than we turned up our defense a little bit and tried to get stops. We were a little more focused offensively and made sure we got good scores.
basketball finish freshman gets good inside nice player post
They've got pretty good inside play. Sherman is a really nice post player for a freshman and he can finish with the basketball when he gets it inside.
break christmas easy games good quiet ready seen seven tuesday
This is a good win. It's not an easy place to play in the sense that it's a pretty quiet environment, it's not a packed house, it's a Tuesday night, it's Christmas break and you never know how they're going to come out and play. These guys, every night, I've never seen them not ready to play in the seven games we've had.
chance hurt loss ourselves redeem
It was a chance to redeem ourselves from the loss that hurt the most.
half knock knocking offensive rebounds shots
We didn't knock down some shots that we were knocking down the first half and they got some offensive rebounds that I don't think they were getting in the first half.
basketball boards body crashed offensive somebody sure tried
We wanted to go get the basketball and we really crashed the offensive boards with a little more passion. Defensively we tried to make sure we got a body on somebody and try to get the basketball.
