affected early game sit tough waiting
It was kind of tough kind of coasting through the early game, then having to sit around all day waiting to play Cass in the finals. I think that kind of affected our game a little.
determination stronger willpower
He will recover, and when he is done recovering, he will be stronger than what he was before. The willpower and determination that he has, he is not done (playing basketball).
boards everywhere good guys hit inside
They have good inside guys, good guards; everywhere you look they have guys that can play. Plus, they hit the boards hard.
adversity both overcome
Both (state trips) are good, but I think I like this one better because we showed we can overcome some adversity and get back.
confident feeling finding good james job might open people relying taking team teams
A lot of people might look on us right now as a team relying on the three-pointer, but we are just taking what teams give us. We are feeling confident from the outside, and James is doing a good job finding us for open baskets.
bring chance coach decided eventually hard mostly playing realized rest state talk talked team
We realized Jermaine wasn't going to play with us the rest of the season, and Coach (Al) Gooden talked to us about what was going on, and we decided to go out there and play for him because we know that if he was out there, he would be playing hard. I have a chance to talk to him when I can, which is mostly everyday. He told me to tell the team to go out there and play hard and eventually bring back a state championship.
mental
Yeah, he's got a lot of mental toughness, and I think we take after him.
