bad felt free goes missing shooting throws time
I felt bad for him missing those free throws because he's been shooting so well from the line. And yet, it goes to show that you can't take a lot of time off and feel like you're still the same player.
free games good team wins
This team has been a good free throw-shooting team for years. It wins games for you, it really does.
free good job
We did a pretty good job on a lot of guys, just free throws, free throws, free throws.
comfort free guys level played tail throws
He played like a warrior. ... Making those free throws and all, he played his tail off. And there's just a comfort level with the guys and ... ah, it was big.
fact five free gone guys last loved paul please shot throws whether
I loved the fact that they showed the grit. We went to different guys at different times. Whether it be Paul and Mo with the free throws or Shannon with the big shot and the step-back, I think each one of them did some different things. They can play better, but please don't underestimate what they've gone through in the last five days.
playing
We were out of energy. Playing Thursday-Saturday is a joke.
address luxury
We will not have that luxury this year. But we will address it in other ways.
brutal mouth tried
I've tried to just keep my mouth quiet. It is a brutal, brutal, brutal schedule. And if you go through everyone's schedule, which I've done, there's no one even close. But so be it.
along beating capable cut helped indiana iowa michigan six state teams themselves week winning work
I've said all along there were six teams capable of winning the Big Ten, and that hasn't changed. Iowa has its work cut out for it, but they've helped themselves a lot this week winning at Indiana and beating Michigan State at home.
children might sound
It was a life-changing experience, and other than my children being born, I don't think I've had another one of those, ... It might sound hokey, but I know I'll be a better person and American for going over there.
basketball games good team win
I see this being a good enough basketball team to win a lot of games yet.
calls replay super watching weird
I've been watching the Super Bowl, and they could have used (instant) replay on some of those calls. There were a lot of weird calls in that game.
good job shoes
I've been in his shoes and know what he went through. They did a good job in the first half.
change deal good team
I've never had a real good team have so little depth. There's nothing we can do to change it. We've just got to deal with it a little better.
