early good looking optimistic start winter
Things are looking pretty optimistic right now. We've got a good early start to this winter season.
demeanor fan huge issues makeup
I'm a huge fan of his. His makeup is perfect. He's a worker. His demeanor is always the same; never too high, never too low. He's got no issues (with his temper). He's a jewel.
injury keeps major round
He's a star. Only an injury keeps him out of the first round (of this year's MLB Draft), only an injury keeps him from being a long-time major leaguer.
guarded joe shots
Joe Ballard may have been the MVP of the game. He made some big shots and guarded well.
excited good guys practice realize three
Practice has been good and our preparation has been outstanding. We have had three pretty good practices. The guys are excited and realize what is at stake.
filling water
Metro-area water suppliers should be able to look at filling their reservoirs this year.
drought dry looking situation
It's pretty dry down there. It's looking like a drought situation for a big part of the southwestern part of the country.
half positive returned sign week
His alertness returned after a week and a half or so. That was the first positive sign we had.
came continue gave hit hopefully jon plus shoot shots
Jon came in and hit some shots that gave us a lift, which is important. Hopefully he will continue to shoot that well because that was a plus for us.
needed
He (Tate) made plays. He got two big baskets for us when we needed it the most.
determination good guy scouts simply suggest tons tools unfair
I think he has just tons of drive, determination and instincts. He has good ability. I think it's unfair to suggest this guy doesn't have ability. He's a very good athlete. I think his tools were simply underevaluated by the scouts out here.
beat drive equal indiana teams thrilled
I wasn't thrilled to drive all the way to Indiana and get beat by 37. If we didn't have to, we'd probably play more teams of equal level.
high player recognize themselves
Every player has high expectations for themselves and the team, and it was very frustrating. But I think they recognize that they did do some things well.
brian darn doubt
Tate was the difference, no doubt about it. Brian Greene was pretty darn good, too.
