likes sean unselfish
I do think they're unselfish players. Paul's an unselfish kid. Sean likes to shoot, but he also likes to pass. P.J.' s more of a passer than he is a scorer.
badly city fans gorilla taken
It's like a a gorilla has been taken off my back because the fans and the city wanted it so badly because it has been 23 years. This is what we all wanted.
control count nine shot
I couldn't get them under control in the first half. I just couldn't. They thought if they made a shot it would count as nine points.
close guy guys next night points rely teach win
I think that's the way to the teach the game. I want to be balanced. I don't want to have to rely on one guy to get 18 points every night or two guys to get 18 and 16. That's why we were able to win so many close games, because one night it was Paul, the next night it was Sean. The next night it was Kyle.
playing plug system
They've just been really playing well. I think they just keep the same system and plug him in there.
bad battle constantly fun game hard race says year
The four-way race has been fun. It says a lot about our league. There are no bad teams. Every game is hard and you can't take anything for granted. It's been a challenging year for everybody. You don't get a day off. You are constantly going from one battle to the next.
bad execution played second shots three took
Our execution was really, really good, especially in the second half. We only took three bad shots the whole game. We really played unselfish.
aggressive
They were aggressive when we were on our heels.
happening tired
Finally, we made the shot. I'm excited. I'm happy. I'm tired of it happening to us.
feet hurt improved remember spent time year
I remember back to the year he got hurt. He spent more time tripping over his feet than anything else. So he's improved a lot, and he's consistently improved every year.
intelligence intelligence-and-intellectuals night plays simple tough
He had a tough night at Southern; it's as simple as that. He didn't play with the intelligence he usually plays with.
begging hard kid sean shot
He was the only kid that could make a shot. I was begging the guys, 'Give Sean shots.' It was hard to get him shots. When Sean banked the shot in, I really thought we were going to win. But they were just too good.
arena basketball bigger people played
It's just a basketball game. It's just played in a bigger arena with more people watching.
athletic efficient offense
I think they are a little more athletic ... but we are a lot alike. They have been much more efficient on offense than we have.
