blow final nice
When we were up 20 with 2 to go, I said to myself 'Even I can't blow this one. It was nice to not have those gut-wrenching final seconds.
contribute eight percent
There are eight of them, so 50 percent of them probably will have to contribute immediately.
shoot
When we shoot them like that, we can play with a lot of people.
delivery healthy heather kevin prefer
If he can't play because he's got to make a delivery or whatever, we'll play on through it. We want Kevin and Heather to have a healthy baby, and we prefer that much more than a healthy game.
clinic complete developing good kevin playing
I thought we put on a pretty good clinic for most of the game. Kevin is really playing well and developing into a complete player.
offensive quickness
Their quickness and offensive rebounding was the difference.
attention handle kevin men special younger
Kevin is younger than most of our seniors, and some men could not handle all the attention the way he has. He is a very special person.
corners glad guys kick
I'm glad he made it. They had their guys in the corners to try to kick it out for the tie.
compare fun gun shoot spread
It is not a gimmick. I wouldn't compare it to a wishbone, I'd say it is more like the fun and gun because they spread you out and they are going to shoot the 3-pointer 25 times.
admire smart
I admire the way (the Panthers) play and how smart they play defensively.
defense guys love marriage offense passes plays shoots skill
His skill level, and my love for having big guys who can shoot, made the marriage work. He plays and shoots and passes the way I like our big guys to do it to make our offense and defense work.
half less second tough
It's tough to explain. I think we had less turnovers in the second half than we had in the first.
half knew root second standing worn
You knew the second half was going to be a root canal. They went after us with everything they had with their waves, and we got worn down, but we were still standing at the end.
learn
We just couldn't get over the hump. That's just the way it goes. We'll learn something from it.
