adam against best complete cut effort tough year
That was the best he's cut all year and against a very tough defense, too. That was a complete effort out of Adam tonight.
best building good might
We've been awfully good defensively all year, but this might have been our best 40-minute effort. We've been really good defensively in this building all year.
almost best conference country games heck home six
We've been in first place for almost six weeks. That's a heck of a stretch. We're 20-8 and 9-5 in the best conference in the country and we have two big home games left.
best class gave proves shot somebody until
Until somebody proves otherwise, they are the class of our league. They're getting everybody's best shot. We gave them our best shot tonight.
best fully team understand win
We're at our best when we do things as a team defensively. They fully understand that if we're going to win, we're going to have to win it at that end.
bad best defense defensive key pressure shots team took translated
They're probably the best defensive team in the league. They put a lot of pressure on you. We had some key stretches where we took ill-advised shots and that translated into bad defense (on the other end).
best either guarded hard jeff minutes played plus secret stop
Jeff played all 40 minutes plus guarded their best player. He got going, and it was hard for them to stop him just like it was hard for us to stop Vincent. I don't think there was any kind of secret on either side.
best defense good guys played
Our guys were just so much more active. We have played awfully good defense all year, but this may have been our best 40-minute effort.
best guard hard parker seen shoot
Jabari Parker is one of the best, if not the best, I've seen on tape. He's so hard to guard. You've got to guard from 23 feet. He can shoot it, or he can go one-on-one from there. He can post. He's so fast and long.
center dominated favor position
We just got dominated on the glass. I thought the center position was really in favor of them.
faith jeff might putting warm
We might play him 5 or 6 minutes, then take him out. Yet Jeff might say that makes it tight, and it's better if he can keep it warm and go. We're putting our faith in him to let us know. . .
aspects financial
We try to take the financial aspects out of the injury,
expected seen today zone
We expected to see zone today - we hadn't seen zone in two weeks.
energy focus minutes
We are two minutes after the game. My whole focus and energy haven't changed. I put everything into this.
