drawing fake far foul good hands late pump push stay tough
I just wanted to push him out as far as I could and just stay down. He's good at that pump fake and drawing the foul late in the game. So I wanted to keep my hands up and make it a tough shot. If he makes it, he makes it.
goal team tone
I just play. The goal is to come out and set the tone for the team and be efficient. We have so many weapons, I just try to get us started offensively and then be patient.
I'll probably go regardless. If I don't make it, I'll go. It'll be interesting and exciting.
backbone consistent definitely far hope solid
I hope he doesn't get discouraged because internally we know he's been the key. We know that he's definitely been the backbone as far as being consistent and solid throughout.
ball playoff throw trust
I have to do better for my team. Playoff time, if they are going to throw the ball in my hands, and have the trust in me to have the ball like that and make something happen, I have to produce, and I didn't produce.
allowed confidence defense easy good helped intensity
I think our defense intensity really helped us because we were able to get a lot of easy baskets which allowed us to get some confidence and for us to feel good about ourselves.
knew position trying win
I put it up, (Smith) was trying to go for the block. I knew that if I didn't make the shot, I had to try and get in position (for the rebound). It's win by any means. Sometimes it's not going to be pretty.
confidence game great grew phenomenal wore
His confidence just grew and grew as the game wore on. It was great to see. He was phenomenal tonight.
blew free harder hate hurt might miss missing opportunity throw tie worry
I play to win. I had the opportunity at the end. I blew it. I blew the opportunity. I hate that I had to miss those for us to end our streak. It's going to make me want to come out and play harder tomorrow. Missing that free throw hurt the most. If I made that, it would have been a tie game, and I might not have had to worry about that jumper.
blew ended free hate missed opportunity throw twice win
I play to win, and I had the opportunity to win twice and I blew it. I hate that I missed that free throw that ended our streak.
blew opportunity twice win
I play to win and I had the opportunity at the end twice and I blew it. I blew the opportunity.
bring definitely good helps reality teams
It helps bring us back to reality, that we're definitely good enough to be one of the better teams in this league. We just have to consistently do it.
height people seen
Because of his height and some of the things he can do. I don't know if many people have seen some things he can do. But if he can make his dunks, he can make his way to the final.
gate high jump lesson ourselves position steal teams wins
Hopefully, it will be a lesson and make us come out harder. We'll try to come out of the gate and jump on teams and steal some wins and position ourselves as high as possible.
