job
We're going to have to do a better job defensively on Polk.
court defend execute half means score teams transition
Ultimately, it comes down to a half-court game. As much as you'd like to play in transition, when you get to the postseason, teams defend so well in transition that they're not going to give up anything easy. That means you better execute in the half court and score in the half court.
bit good job played second
We played a little bit too slow, a little bit too casual, and didn't do a very good job defensively in the second half. We didn't do a good job guarding Polk.
game worst
We probably had our worst game of the year.
basketball floor freshman good guys player
As a player you want to be one of those guys that's indispensable, someone you need to have on the floor at all times. He's a freshman and he's going to be a good basketball player.
besides detroit games guys main mean won
I think we've been in most games -- I mean besides the Youngstown game -- we should have won that Detroit game -- but the main thing is for our guys to be consistent.
game period sell short
I would think that game would sell out in a very short period of time.
foul line shooting six
It had nothing to do with him shooting 8-for-12. It had everything to do with him going to the foul line six times. If he can get to the foul line, he can score.
best five hands players surprised
Hands down, without question, he's one of the best five players in the league. I was very surprised he wasn't on that first team.
hit nights tough
He hit a lot of tough shots. He had one of those nights where he was in a zone.
future striving
It's not about the future. The future is for us to be better right now. That's what we're striving for.
days energy enthusiasm excited few game key last preached
The key to that game was our bench. I've been disappointed, not with the play of our bench, but more so the energy and enthusiasm and emotion. We preached the last few days to be excited on the bench.
best game played
He played great. That was the best game of his career.
basketball face good great guys minutes played proud
I'm really proud of how our guys gutted it out. Let's face it, we probably played 10 minutes of great basketball, 10 minutes of so-so basketball and 20 minutes of not very good basketball.
