We're still in the tutorial stage, and every day is different, from the coaches, to us, to each other.
When they started playing zone, it slowed us down, made us stagnant. It was effective and teams have been playing us pretty much straight up (man-to-man). I'm sure some other teams are going to watch this game, and they're going to do some of the same things. I know what we're going to work on tomorrow.
We both hate losing. I'm pretty sure he would like some more help.
We're not consistent for 48 minutes in what we're doing, and it's our fault. We can't blame Case. We can't blame anybody but ourselves, starting with me.
