We left off playing pretty good, so I wasn't excited about the (Christmas) break. But we've had a couple of good days of practice this week.
duke game kid lottery minutes national playing plays single talking team time tv uniform
That kid, if his team is in first place or on national TV all the time -- or if he's playing with a Duke uniform on -- they're talking about this kid being a lottery pick. That kid does it all. He plays for 40 minutes every single game and doesn't take possessions off. That's special.

against experience guys incredible knew men might playing savvy solid
That might have been the whole thing right there, the incredible experience as well as the solid play and their savvy out on the court. It was like old men playing against young guys out there. They knew what they were doing. They never got rattled. They never got shaken.
certainly chew minutes playing unless
I may not play him 35 minutes unless we need to. But I certainly am not going to let him take the day off. And I'm going to chew on him if he's not playing good.
affect ask banner both dual falls forward game head john looking player playing rose switch thorn vote year
I'm looking forward to not playing Darrel Mitchell. He's been a thorn in our side. He dunks, falls on his head and comes back and plays. Every year his game has rose up another level. When you switch a player to a new position, you never know how it's going to affect him. It hasn't. It's made him a dual threat. He's had a banner year. If I were to vote for an MVP of the league, I'd go with one (Mitchell) or the other (Davis). I'd ask John which one. Both are dynamite.
