gotta team understand
You gotta understand what I?m about, ... This is a team sport.
almost highlight richard seven six
We got killed and they got anything they wanted. It was almost like they were scripting plays. We didn't compete. There were about six or seven things that are going to be the highlight film. And we are the ones that are going to be in it with Vince, Richard and Jason.
bad beginning horrible third
We had a bad beginning and a horrible third quarter.
chance
We didn't get a win, but we had a chance to win.
develop eight guys kids looked rotation similar worry worrying
We really have too many young guys right now. You look at Riley's team, he didn't have to worry about the ninth, 10th, 11th, 12th, 13th, 14th, 15th guy worrying about playing. He had eight guys that he played. I don't even think he looked at the other seven. If we're going to be good, you've got to get down to a rotation similar to that and develop your young kids the right way.
ball caught guard quick steve strong
We just want ball players. I don't get caught up in positions. I think Steve is strong enough to guard 2s and quick enough to guard 1s.

advantages against athletic caught playing score team tried
We tried to score too fast. Against an athletic team like them, that's tough. I thought we had advantages if we could go inside, but we just got caught up playing their tempo.

This new facility is an excellent example of how a school-to-work transition initiative should be orchestrated.
games losing
We're not losing games because of him. We're losing games because of me and our team.
guys help hopefully people pressure tried
We tried but we just we have some deficiencies that hopefully Jalen will help alleviate. I think he'll take a lot of pressure off the perimeter people and make the big guys bigger.
bit control extra good guys open playing running seems steve
We're playing under control a little bit better and not just running up and down the court. When you've got guys like Jalen and Steve who will make the extra pass, it just seems to open it up for everybody. I feel good about everybody's contribution.

confident felt help playing talked twice work
We talked and he wasn't getting enough work here. He told me we're playing a lot of games, we've been traveling. He told me he could work out twice a day, and he's done it before and he really felt confident that this would help him.
