We will have to play our best defensive game of the year, and we need to hit our open shots.
advantage although certainly december early february five game games help home league letting pick road strength team three traveling treated wins
Although we are on the road for much of November, December and part of January, if we can pick up some early road wins it will certainly help to have home-court advantage down the stretch, especially having five league games at home and traveling for just three in February and March. With the strength of every team in our league, there is no letting down and every game has to be treated with a championship effort.
average ball game shoot turn win
They shoot well and don't turn the ball over, and that's why they can get out-rebounded by an average of 5.8 a game and still win 20 games.
chance coming game gives guys improve last means national prestige seniors
It means a lot. We are able to get a little national prestige ... It gives our seniors a chance to improve on their last performance, and it gives our guys coming back one more game this year.
achievement close great second
This was a great accomplishment for the seniors, to go out with a win. They're second to Kent, and it's a close second.
fatter great taking
I think it's a great thing. They keep taking and taking and taking from P.E. and you can see it in our kids, they're getting fatter and fatter and fatter.

I think it hurt us on the offensive end a lot. He not only scores for us, he's one of those guys that's always active. He's always doing something. He's a decent passer; he really moves and gets things going.

Let me say this about him. He might be the most intelligent kid on the team in terms of basketball. He's got great basketball sense. He's got a great basketball IQ.
basically book deal easy good helps pass saying spells teammates
What it's basically saying is that most of us want to pass things on, but our accountability is very, very important. It's easy to read and spells out everything. I think it's a good book for sports, because it helps you deal with what can I do and what can I do to make my teammates better.
chance players quick
We never had a chance tonight. I told our players that we didn't know how quick they were.
distract early guys
We told our guys early on that we're going to play or we ain't going to play. You can't let things like that distract you.
goes man offensive past sit team
Here's what we're going to do. The first man on our team that goes to the offensive board, he's going to sit on the bus, because we've got to get back. If you don't, he'll go right past you.
forget four last
We need to forget about the last four games.
bowling came fight green played waiting
Bowling Green has always been a nemesis for us and they have a lot of fight in them. We came out and I thought we played well. And I'll take it. I know the Falcons will be waiting for us when we go up there.
