hard score unselfish
He has to be able to score for us some. We can't play 2-on-5. It's hard when you can't score from every position. He's an unselfish player, but sometimes being unselfish can be selfish.
final fire hard reality sets
(Freshmen) all think they are going to come in and set the world on fire and go to the Final Four. When reality sets in to them a little bit, they can be a little discouraged. It's up to us to try to get them back. It's just a hard thing when you are going through it.
conference step
He's got to step up his game, as a senior, in conference play.
doubt eye needed win
A win helps, no doubt about it. There's just a different look in their eye when you win. We needed to get this one.
ball difficult
That's what they do. They make it difficult to get the ball inbounds.
guys played
The guys hurt. It's frustrating. We played well enough to win. We just couldn't get it done.
bad beaten half second team
That was not a PG-rated halftime. I thought in the second half we had a lot more energy. The first half was horrendous. One thing I did tell them is they couldn't have beaten a bad JV team in the first half.
needed shoot
We needed them to shoot because we needed to get into the game. But they were making them.
point
We could never really get it to that point where we made it interesting.
aggressive ball offensive score struggle
We need to have him score for us. We struggle to put the ball in the basket. He's got to be very aggressive on the offensive end, which he was tonight.
clock offensive rebound running shot time
We wanted to take one (shot) and have time to get an offensive rebound. We got the rebound and got jammed pretty good. The clock was running down and we shot it pretty quickly. We got the look we wanted the first time.
certainly guys wish
We wish Dwayne well. We certainly could use him, but we want guys here that want to be at Auburn.
playing
We can't play them man-to-man, so we had to do a lot of stuff, playing zone.
finish talked time
We talked about it. We don't want to finish there. We don't want to come in last. This is our time to do it.
