afforded asked asking calls guys team
I'm not asking for preferential treatment. All I'm asking is that my guys are afforded the same calls the other team is getting. That's all I've ever asked for.
eerie feeling floor kid seeing
It's just an eerie feeling being back on this floor and not seeing that kid out there.
complaints complaints-and-complaining game hard played playing
I don't have any complaints with our crew. They are playing hard and we have been in every game we've played this year.
establish guy kid point somewhere talking
I just think we're talking about a kid with a different mind-set. We're talking about a guy that wanted to go somewhere and establish himself, to the point where he can make a difference.
coming effort fought four instead last mark minute minutes nine pleased quarter second six three
I'm pretty pleased with our effort and the way we fought back in the second half. After the nine minute mark (of the third), we kind of went haywire that last three or four minutes of the quarter and instead of coming out of the quarter down by six or seven, we were down by 10.
adequate allen caught contain defense fourth game hope solid stop third
I thought we just defended. You're not going to stop Allen Iverson. Webber had a big game as well. All you can do is try to contain them and hope for the best. I thought we did an adequate job. I thought our defense was solid in the third and fourth (quarter). Once we caught up, it was back and forth.
calls driving guys hands
To me, that's it in a nutshell. He doesn't get any calls . When he's driving to the basket, guys have their hands all over him, and there's nothing called. It doesn't make sense.
defend figure improve mediocre rebound teams time until
Until we figure out that we're not going to outscore teams all the time and that we'll have to defend and rebound before we think about scoring, we're going to be a mediocre team. That's something we're going to have to improve on this summer.
against close couple far free games gone good hat kids road tip tonight
We have had a couple good road wins, but this is by far the best. Our young kids did it tonight and you need to tip your hat to them. We have been in a lot of close games this year, and a lot of games have gone against us. Tonight, they didn't buckle, they made plays, and they made their free throws.
close games plays refused
We have had a lot of close games that we just didn't make plays down the stretch, but we refused to lose tonight.
