(Brown) improves his stock if he comes back.
awareness improved players seen shooting
I think he's really improved his three-point shooting and just his awareness of the game. I'd say he is one of the more improved players I've seen in this league.

I think his team has definitely gotten better since the year started. I think that team could come into next year as the most improved team in the league.
continue defender definitely improve needs tenacious tougher
He's definitely the most tenacious defender we've ever had here. He needs to continue to improve his shooting, but he's tougher than nails.
aggressive blur court gotta improved instead passing quick seeing sees
He has to be aggressive and be slow, if that makes any sense. He's gotta do that. Because when he does, he sees the court so much better. He has improved his passing so much this year. He's seeing things a little better, instead of it being a blur - because he's so quick that it is a blur sometimes.
guys improvement sign
Their guys have made significant improvement. That's a sign that they are being well coached.
ball cover floor grew improved inside loved players putting shooting starting three tough
He's one of the more improved players in the league. I loved him as a freshman. Now he's putting the ball on the floor and shooting threes. He's a tough cover because he grew up an inside four-man and is starting to be a three man. He can do both.

We were out of energy. Playing Thursday-Saturday is a joke.

We will not have that luxury this year. But we will address it in other ways.

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.
