casual game looking maybe ohio start state team
I thought our team was a little casual to start the game and didn't play with a lot of enthusiasm. Maybe they were looking back on the Ohio State game and anticipating what we're doing on Saturday.
game happened maybe practice run work
We hadn't run it in a game but maybe one time. We happened to work on it in our practice the other day.
agreed final maybe seem store talking walking
We're going to the Final Four. That's where it all is. But when I was just talking with Glen walking down the hall, he agreed with me. For some reason, this doesn't seem like the end to me. Maybe there's something more in store for this team.
determination five goes maybe might minutes opposed playing rest short week
We might just have to play Tyrus in short stretches. As opposed to playing him 12 or 14 minutes straight, maybe he can just go five and we'll take him out, let him rest and put him back in. The more he plays, the better he'll feel and the more comfortable he'll feel. We'll make more of a determination of that as the week goes on.
along ball critical far games good helped holds maybe moments shot shots timely
I've said all along that if our perimeter holds up, we're a pretty good team. So far our perimeter hasn't shot the ball as well as maybe we would have liked, but I think we've made some timely shots in critical moments of games that have helped our team.
bother face grade known maybe since teams trust whatever
They trust one another and maybe a little more than some other teams because they have known each other since they were in grade school. Maybe that allows them to face whatever, being nervous, to take on whatever comes. They don't let anything bother them.
ankle biggest determination five game goes maybe might minutes opposed playing rest short time week
The biggest thing with Tyrus may be his conditioning as opposed to his ankle by game time on Thursday. We might just have to play Tyrus in short stretches. As opposed to playing him 12 or 14 minutes straight, maybe he can just go five and we'll take him out, let him rest and put him back in. The more he plays, the better he'll feel and the more comfortable he'll feel. We'll make more of a determination of that as the week goes on.
college grew guys maybe millions people small unique york
These guys grew up together. I think that's unique in college basketball. Maybe not as unique as it would be for New York or Chicago, where you have millions of people in a small area, but we don't have millions of people in our state.
christmas gave maybe
It's not Christmas, it's New Year's. But maybe we gave them a game.
careless couple game played smart won
I thought we had the game won on a couple of occasions. I don't think we played real smart down the stretch. We had some really careless turnovers uncharacteristic of how we've been playing.
defended eight last ok seven until
I thought we had Steele defended OK until the last seven or eight minutes.
finish game kindness playing quit win
I think we kind of quit playing to win and (started) playing not to lose. We had it going. We just didn't finish it off. It's a game we let go.
letting loving players serious team wrong
I thought our team was being who it is, outgoing, fun, but loving and serious when they need to be. From some of the backgrounds that our players are from, there's nothing wrong with letting out the emotion.
couple days good time work
I think we were able to work through Tyrus Thomas' injury, but it's time now for us to get back whole and get a couple of good days of practice.
