anytime game team
They got us to play the kind of game they wanted us to, and anytime a team can do that, they're going to have an advantage.
group guys key overcome playing plays seem team
The key for us is to play consistent. We're kind of a team that plays in spurts. We seem to be able to overcome some of those spurts at home. When we get out on the road, we need to be more consistent. When you go on the road, you have to get a group of guys playing well.
anybody anyone best convince focus good teams time
I think that every time you play anyone in a tournament, you focus on their best games. You don't have to convince anybody of how good any of these teams are.
athletic basket both guys hottest league playing plays team
They're a very athletic team. They have two guys playing well in the post, which allows them to make plays at the basket both offensively and defensively. They're probably the hottest team in the league right now. They'll give us a fight.
afford against conference diego eight fifth fight four game home last learning minutes pass playing san seven team three trying
The last three or four timeouts we were still trying to fight to get back into the game against San Diego State. That was just the fifth of 16 conference games. Each team will play eight at home and eight on the road, and we can't afford to let any of those learning opportunities pass by. We were playing for more than the last seven or eight minutes of one game.
ball college confidence good obviously shoot team teams
They are obviously a really good team and especially in The Pit. They play with more confidence at home. They shoot the ball better at home. And probably like most teams in college basketball, they have a lot of confidence from their crowd.
appreciate reflection role second staff success team themselves worked
I appreciate the recognition for my role in the success of our team but it is really a reflection of our staff and our players. They have all worked very hard. The team has all put themselves second and the team first.
credit played team tried
You've got to credit Houston. We tried to find film of a team that was like them that we've played and there wasn't one.
against best good guys pleasing stepped team win
The most pleasing thing about this win is how many of our guys stepped up and contributed, and did it against the best team in our league, a very, very good team.
bleak looked
It looked pretty bleak there for a minute.
contain games needs
I think what you do is you find the games where they had the most success, and you go from there. You want to see what they've done well, and what needs to be done to contain that.
austin defenders fast front gets hard kid minutes point sharing stay
It is very hard for defenders to stay in front of him. He is deceptively fast for a kid as big as he is. Rashaun gets about 27 minutes a game, sharing the point with Austin Ainge.
consistent rely seems trying
He seems to get better every game. What we're trying to get out of Trent is more consistent play because we really rely on him.
kindness player
That's a warrior, the kind of player you want on your team.
