coming court fans home thank
I actually feel a little guilty. We had home court tonight. I'd like to thank the fans coming out. They were great.
anybody kyle seen
He was really getting into Kyle. I haven't seen anybody get into Kyle where he couldn't get where he wanted to go.
He was exhausted. I said, 'Do you have more?' He said, 'It's my career. I have got it.' He was the best.
change
He was great. There were a lot of times where we got to the rim and he made us change our shots.
deep hit incredible shots
He hit some deep, deep shots. He was incredible in the first half. Some of those shots must've been 32 feet.
deep hit incredible shots tough
He hit some deep, deep shots and some tough shots. I think he was just incredible in the first half.
might rested
He might not be able to play in the Connecticut game. They've told us that if he doesn't get rested and get well, this could really linger.
four games good people rough speed speeding stay time
We try to play our four guards, but sometimes we have games where we get off to a good start, and we can speed people up and stay with it. We were having a rough time speeding them up.
basketball college defensive drilling game hit incredible offensive percentage shot teams terrible
We're pretty defensive-minded and when you look at Louisville's defensive percentage and the 3s they hit, you just feel terrible about how you played. Then you look and we hit 14 3s and that's unbelievable. That was just an incredible college basketball game with two outstanding offensive teams drilling big shot after big shot.
capable game mentally physically saying win
I find myself saying the same things about him. He is physically capable and mentally capable of doing anything to win a game for you.
responsibility screaming seniors trouble yelling
If we have seniors like this and I'm yelling and screaming at halftime, we're in a lot of trouble. They've got to take responsibility and they did.
exactly
I got to see exactly what I wanted to see.
found game great grind guys positive rather relax season time using word
I don't ever think I used the word grind about a season and I found myself using it at the end of this one. There was never a time to relax and that's a positive for a great league. We never had to get our guys ready. I'd rather have it that way when every game was a big game.
champions coming except good prove
I don't know what to expect, except that these are champions coming back to prove themselves. I know it's going to be everything they've got. The good thing is, that's how they play anyway. I don't know how much more they can bring.
