I tried to set a screen on him. He knocked the wind out of me. His butt hit me in my stomach. Luckily there was a short pause in the game, the shot clock wasn't working or something. So I somehow managed to get my breath back.

finished
We are not finished yet. We are still on a mission.
block dunk fires lifts team turn
When they block shots, when they get a dunk and when they just do what they do, it fires the whole team up. Just doing what they do, I think it can turn a game. I think it lifts our team.

They knocked down threes. That was the key to the game. We were bad in transition and they knocked down threes.

They physically killed us. They got every rebound, every loose ball.
last loose people physically
They physically killed us last year. They got every rebound, they got every loose ball. The way they defend, they take people out of their offense, and that's what they're going to try to do to us.
