ben couple hot missed
Ben made shots. He got hot early, missed a couple and got it going again.
fast missed poor
We were too fast on offense, our spacing was poor and we missed some shots.
against basically dominated felt free game gave guess missed nice pull season second team throw win won
We should have won that second game of the season at New Jersey. We missed a free throw and gave up a three-point play basically at the buzzer. It's a game we felt like we should have won. I guess it is nice to pull out a win against a team that's dominated us.
hard missed mistakes played pop step
I thought we played hard tonight. We kind of had a pop to our step most of the game. We made too many mistakes and missed too many shots.
bus came gave missed second until
I gave it some thought until he missed the first bus and came on the second bus, and the thought was over. That was the end of that thought.
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.
impressive season turned
The season was on the ropes for a while. And they turned it around, and did it in an impressive fashion.
