couple score team
I think we'll be a lot better offensively. Defensively, we could be as good. But when you play a faster-paced game, naturally, that other team is going to score a couple more points.
both came coach couple definitely dominate game grown happy marriage medium perfect playing sacrificed score since struggles understand waiting
You know what I mean, just waiting to collide. There were some struggles in my first couple of months. There were definitely some struggles with Coach Brown. But we both sacrificed a lot. We came to a happy medium and it's been a perfect marriage ever since then. My game has definitely grown playing for Coach Brown. I think I look at the game in a different light. I understand that I can dominate a game now without having to score as much as I usually do on most nights.
believe matter measure score
We never believe we are out of a game, no matter what the score is. You can't measure our pride.
harder options score shooter tough volume whatever
He's a volume shooter and he's pretty much the No. 1 and No. 2 options for them. He's going to shoot a lot of shots, and he's going to make some tough ones and score some points. We'll be right there doing whatever we can to make it harder on him.
example great looks matter measure score tonight
We're never out of the game. You can just never measure pride. We're never out of the game, no matter what the score looks like. Tonight was a great example of that.
bit defense faster few might points remain score stay teams
Our defense is going to stay the same. Teams might score a few more points because we might play a little bit at a faster pace, but our defense will remain one or two in the league.
four heard hurt last offensive score team three
We haven't heard that around here for a long time. Flip, he's an offensive genius. For the last three or four years, that's the one thing - the only thing - about our team that was predictable. And I think it hurt us at times, us not being able to score points.
adjusted coast difficult fourth game helped points score swing time trip west zone
It helped us tremendously. That first game back from a West Coast trip is always difficult to get back into the swing of things and get adjusted to the time zone and all of that. Without that, you don't see us score 38 points in the fourth quarter.
against defense early freedom points score sure teams
I'm not sure what's wrong. They've been able to score points against us early. We give teams that freedom early on and when we try to play lock-down defense it's tough, because they've already got it going.
anywhere great guy plays score
He's a guy who can score anywhere on the court. He passes. He plays great defense,
bit
I think we'll be a little bit more up-tempo,
ahead coast far finish guys lay looking reason teams whatever
I think that for whatever reason we think that we can coast to the finish line, and not do what we have done all season. We are getting away from what we do, and guys are looking too far ahead to the playoffs. We have to do the things that we have always done. Teams aren't just going to lay down for us.
apart beat confidence larry tough
Larry beat him up too much. He tore the kid's confidence apart too much, and it was tough for him to recover,
definitely elite guys lock point teams
We're definitely going to see those guys down the road. They're one of the elite teams in the league, so at some point ... we're going to lock up.
