game good helped hurt played second time tyrone zone
The zone (defense) hurt them a little, made them stagnant. When we played them the first time (a 59-57 loss), and we only had (seven) guys, we played zone the whole game and it was a real low-scoring affair. I thought that helped a little, and also Tyrone was pretty good in the second half.
attacked game good hitting inside jump kids offensive shots starts stayed
I thought they were smart, they attacked us inside a lot and got some good baskets. Their inside kids are tremendously improved, and Reynolds had a big game for them. When he starts hitting jump shots, you can be in a little trouble. He got some shots to go down, but I thought we stayed with some good composure, on the offensive end especially.
coach sick thrilled
I'm so thrilled for us and I'm sick for Greg Young, the coach at Jacksonville.
adjusting adversity felt good great job point
I felt we did a great job adjusting to all the adversity. Justin (Johnson) did a good job at point (guard).
five found game hard physical score touch wonder
It's hard to score from the bench. For a game as physical as it was, you wonder how all five touch fouls found (Garner). But that's part of the game.
last relaxed team
Last year's team really relaxed after we made it. I don't sense that in this group.
against call charges defensive great plays second
Delbert made two great defensive plays on those charges in the second half, and they made the same call against us at our end.
asked bigger role
I've asked him to take on a bigger role and be more aggressive.
