call sleep
Once again, we've had another wake-up call and we know we can't sleep through a game.
fun looser start
Nothing to lose. It makes you feel looser and play a little more freely. When you do that, you start to have a little more fun and things start to go your way more often than not.
basketball bunch court far focusing good happening job letting matter outside people playing thoughts throughout throw worrying year
It's just a matter of us really focusing on what we need to do and not letting other outside things throw us off track. I know we've already experienced a bunch of things throughout this year with things happening outside the court and expectations and thoughts about what people should be doing and everything. I think so far we've done a really good job of playing basketball and not worrying about all that other stuff.
came defensive games knowing matter seeing situation somebody step
It's just a matter of seeing the situation and knowing that somebody has to step up for us to win games like this. When (South Florida) came back, somebody had to make a play, get a rebound, make a defensive stop.
either good gotten job lead seems
It seems like either we've gotten a lead and let up a little bit. But I think we've done a very good job of working through those lapses. We were also able to come back. We've been able to win.
almost guess guy hard hit playing post runs score year
It?s almost like playing a wing. He runs around a whole lot of screens, he can hit the 3, and I guess this year he?s been in the post a lot more. It?s hard to play a guy who can score that many ways.
ball basically fight game good grind inside louisville team types win work
It's always good that you can have a team that can win all different types of games. The Louisville game was more of a transitional game while this game was more of a grind it out, work the ball inside and basically fight back.
fun guys help job
It's always fun to come out here and perform. We'll help the young guys out. It's going to be everybody's job to keep them focused.
bad change lead outcome vanish
It's frustrating when you see a 19-point lead vanish so quickly. If something didn't change quickly, it was going to be a bad outcome for us.
bump cuts definitely fight force front strength
That's definitely the strength of their team. They force you out of your offense, they bump you on all your cuts and front you in the post. They never give up. They fight you for everything.
aside basically bit game home playing tougher
They're on a roll, they're playing really well and it's basically going to be a home game for them. It's going to be a little bit tougher on us, but we're going to have to put everything aside and just play basketball.
fueled game intense might pushing saw
All that stuff, the Wiggins thing, the other thing, might have fueled what you saw tonight. There was trash-talking, pushing and shoving. I think the game was more intense because of that stuff.
fueled intense plane pushing
All those things - the (recruit Doug) Wiggins thing, the (charter) plane thing - may have fueled this. There was trash-talking, pushing and shoving. It was more intense because of all that.
needed thinking
All that I'm thinking about is the game: what we could've done better, what we needed to do better to win. That's the only thing I'm thinking about, right now.
