great players
He just made some great shots. Outstanding players do that.
players possible produces smith stretch touches veteran youngster
Our veteran (Smith) and our youngster (Rice) made the big plays. We want Smith to get as many touches down the stretch as possible because our other players will play off him. He's a thoroughbred and battle-tested, and he usually produces in the clutch.
bench games players preference sat whether
I sat the bench (with the Kings) for I don't know how many games. It is just a coach's preference whether or not they are going to play players or not.
battle hard level mistake nobody players settle soccer throw wants window
You pretty much have to throw pretty soccer out the window at this level any way. Nobody wants to make a mistake and the players are a little nervous. It's hard to settle in. We're going to have to battle for 80 minutes.
figure grasped heck obviously players run team trying
I was trying to figure out what the heck I was doing. I wanted to get in there and run and obviously play some defense. We've got a young team but that's not an excuse. We've got a lot of young players that just haven't grasped it yet but we'll get there.
allowed along bring build fine players program reason stability stay worked
Because I've been allowed to stay long enough, I think that's part of the reason that this has occurred, along with, obviously, having some very fine players who've worked their tails off to build this program and bring about stability in this program.
arms environment maybe open scholars-and-scholarship welcome
It's not like they welcome you with open arms in that environment, either. This is not really new for us. Maybe we're new to you, but this is not new to us.
execute
They're double- and triple-teaming him and they're bodying him ... and he's consistently been able to execute his game.
detention expansion operations
There's an expansion in the detention operations going on.
might people
You might as well get used to it, there are some new people in town.
american-psychologist education learnt survives
Education is what survives when what has been learnt has been forgotten.
academic best great limit playing served side time travel
Here we are playing great basketball, and you'd think they'd take these things into consideration. From an academic standpoint, it has not served us very well. We're going to have to go to the other side of the country. We have to travel to a different time zone. So, we've got some issues, and we've got to try to limit them as best we can.
club fortunate mistake overcome veteran
I thought we have a veteran club and we made a very big mistake there. We were fortunate to overcome that.
acquired appreciate good period time tremendous watch wow
In all honesty, I think Jared is an acquired taste. You have to watch him for a long period of time to appreciate what he does. There is nothing he does that is going to wow you. He's not tremendous at anything, but he's very, very good at all things.
