great onto trying understand winning
I understand that they're trying to do something different because what they've done hasn't worked, but I don't think they've latched onto this great winning strategy.
credit felt team
It's a little disappointing that we didn't play better. We felt like we could play better than what we did, but you have to give credit where credit is due. They were the better team today.
defended handful sure switch tried
(Williams) was a handful because of the way we defended him. We just tried to switch everything on Terrill and make sure we had a hand in his face.
guard tough
We know they have two outstanding guards, and we know they can get out and guard you. They look to be tough to defend.
confidence early everybody teammates trust
We have a lot more confidence in our teammates where they're going to do the right thing. Early on, we didn't trust everybody as well as we should have.
folks meeting private worried
We wanted to be able to have a private meeting where folks were not worried about being on the record.
good playing
We have been playing very good defense, and we have rebounded well.
basket couple floor hard huge kids palm spread worked
We were able to get a couple of lay-ups when we spread the floor and I thought the 3-point basket by Palm was a huge one. The kids have worked hard for this.
build felt figured pound pressure
We figured they were going to pound it in there to him. We just kind of felt like if we could get them down, the pressure would build on them and they would do some things that they couldn't do, or just individually take over. That's kind of the way it happened.
difference felt nick second tired wearing
We told them our conditioning was going to be the difference in the second half. We felt like (Brock) was tired at halftime. Nick (Snider) was wearing on him.
basketball calm central floor foul free game home kept kids knew lead physical playing spread stay telling tough
We knew it would be a tough, physical basketball game and playing Central on its home floor would be a tough chore. We just kept telling the kids to stay calm and composed. Once we got the lead we were able to spread the floor and make them foul us. We didn't make a lot of free throws, but we made enough.
early helped last teams understanding week
We're getting better there, and that's encouraging. Early in the year, we weren't very good. Last week helped us when you have to play teams like you do down at (the) Benton (Tournament). I think we're understanding a little better what we need to do defensively.
beginning games goal kids last main win year
We told the kids at the beginning of the year that our main goal was to win more games than we did last year.
felt five good last second six team
We felt like we could play a lot better second half. We were up three, so we felt pretty good about where we were. We've been a second-half team in the last four, five or six games. We've always been able to make a push, and were able to do it again.
