behind occur scenes team worse
I've never been part of a team where that didn't occur at some point. And sometimes behind the scenes is way worse than that.
behind blocks came directly free league paul tyson
Tyson had the blocks. Two of those blocks were big league blocks, the one from behind and the one directly on Paul when he came down the middle. We were able to make our free throws. It was just a gutsy win.
against behind dominated game jersey nice season second team won
We should have won that second game of the season at New Jersey (a 100-99 loss). It is nice to put one behind you against a team that has kind of dominated us.
behind factor rest
Hopefully, this is something he can put behind him and it won't be a factor the rest of the season.
behind experience lost slide slippery
We lost Shawn too many times tonight. I know from experience that he's a very slippery player. If you relax, he'll slide behind you.
afford behind cracks critical finding knack lose lost several slippery
We lost Shawn too many times tonight. I know from experience, he's a very slippery player. If you relax, he slides behind you. He's got a knack of finding cracks in there. We lost him several times, and that was one critical play where we couldn't afford to lose him and we did.
looked
We just looked out of it. We looked out of it most of the night.
ball defense driving finally kindness near picked quarter start third waited
We just waited too long to start playing. We kind of just sleepwalked through 2 1/2 quarters. Then near the end of the third quarter we finally started getting aggressive. We started driving the ball and our defense picked up.
focus move talked
We just talked about it with the guys; we want to move up. That's what we'll keep our focus on now.
bad basketball concerned gave good half lack points quarter respect tough win
We just gave them 25 points off turnovers and it's tough to win when you do that. I'm concerned about this one good half, one bad half routine, one good quarter, one bad quarter that we've been in and just the carelessness with the ball. And, a lack of respect for the basketball out there was pretty amateurish.
free throw winning
We were probably one free throw away from winning the game. We weren't able to make it, and we weren't able to get (defensive) stops.
kirk team
I've said it many times, Kirk does so many things for our team that his shot-making is down the list.
man nice pressure shoot
It would be nice to have Darius because he is another big man who can shoot it. There's a lot of pressure on Malik because he's our only big who can shoot it outside.
fortunate nice somebody
It would be nice if we could play well and put somebody away. We were fortunate to get out of here with a win.
