behind defensive games good putting quality
We're not putting this one behind us. I'm not so into the standings and all of that. I'm into the quality of play, and for two games in a row, our defensive quality of play was not good enough.
attempted bad basketball coming hard interested keeps quality seemed shot sustaining time tonight topic tried
I know that topic keeps coming up, but I'm most interested in quality basketball. We're having a hard time sustaining quality basketball, and tonight was as bad as it gets. Everything we tried didn't work. Every shot we attempted seemed a little off rhythm.
focus games good maybe quality team wins
It's just disappointing. I don't really have good answers. ... Maybe I will (feel good about what the team has done) at the end of the year. I don't feel good right now. The quality of our play hasn't been good for two games in a row. That's my measuring stick. You focus on the quality and the wins come.
both care complete conference conversion defensive ends establish good offense quality tournament
I want to establish quality on both ends of the floor. It's very important going into the conference tournament that we're not just good on offense, but also good on defense. We have to have a better defensive conversion (from offense to defense), we need to take care of the ball. I need to see a complete performance.
exceeded knew publicity quality ton
They're getting a ton of publicity in St. Louis. They have not exceeded my expectations, because my expectations were very high. We knew they could come in and give us quality minutes.
couple goes win
It goes without saying, you have to win. You have to win more than one of them. You have to win a couple of them.
hole seems
It always seems to be the hole in the dike.
clearly good shooting
We clearly can not be described as a good shooting team. I think that's obvious.
continue dominant effort himself post team teammates
That was a team effort to make him more forceful. His teammates had to play a part in that, to continue to look into the post every time. To Ian's credit, he re-established himself as a dominant center. He was too much for them to handle.
feels four three win
It feels good. Not just to win three in a row, but to win four out of five.
guys life
It doesn't have a life of its own. You guys can write about it. But it's been weird.
designed great player
Tommie didn't get a great shot. There's a great player that made a great play. It wasn't a great designed play. He just made it work.
became fan fun
Wow. From my vantage point, that was fun to watch. I became a fan there for a while. He was really spectacular.
easier free hard paid whenever
Whenever you have a five-man that makes free throws, it makes it a lot easier because he's going to get fouled the most. He's been working hard and it's paid off for him.
