happy opportunity
I am happy for their seniors. They were able to get through the grind, and now they have the opportunity to play on.
close shots
You have to make shots so close to the rim.
point rebound spread strong
We had the opportunities to make shots. You get to a point where you have to make them. We got to rebound better. We're not strong enough to rebound consistently when we get spread out like that.
beaten good lost start today
We've been beaten this year, but I didn't think we lost any of those games, but we lost today. It was important for us to get off to a good start today but we didn't do it.
four line lost proud three
We were down three to Villanova and 5-for-17 at the line. We have lost three or four at the free-throw line so I'm really proud of our kids.
breaking great job
We did a great job of breaking it down into four-minute segments. I don't have a 19-point play.
conference game league looking rent seems sets tough tournament winning
Every league game seems like a conference tournament game to me. You're looking at two sets of standings: who's winning and who's at the bottom. It's a tough, tough thing on coaches. That's why I rent (a house) and I didn't buy.
directly led shooting steals terrific
Shooting percentages can be misleading. Their steals led directly to baskets. I think they've done that all year. They're terrific open-court players.
bit chest difference good saw somebody stepped teams
Somebody else stepped up for them and good teams do that. I thought I saw his chest swell a little bit after the first one. He was the difference in the game.
guy healthy rather side
Sammy to me is a guy who has to be healthy to play well. I'd rather come down on the side of safety.
basketball create problems rest team
They're a team of basketball players. They're not a team of positions. But they create problems you're not going to see the rest of the year.
looking sets
You're looking at two sets of standings. You're looking at who's winning, but you also look at the bottom.
arenas front full
You're going to be in front of full arenas from now on. I think you have to make that another whole season.
basically bottom far looking sets talk winning
You're basically looking at two sets of standings. You're looking at who's winning our league, but you're looking far more at the bottom of the league. It's something we talk about every day.
