blended couple finishing guess morrow open three took
We executed well in stretches, but . . . we took a couple possessions off. It was finishing off the execution. Three times we had (Anthony) Morrow open in the corner. They didn't see him. I guess he blended in with the crowd.
couple game great mistakes win
There were mistakes (against Maryland) that we could have controlled. When we executed well, we got some great looks. There were a couple breakdowns and in a one-possession game you have to win every possession.
allow avoid couple effort games holding last level teams
The effort level the last couple of games was much better. We've started to get better at holding on to the ball, but we've got to avoid the rashes that we've had that allow other teams to go on a run.
couple game great win
I thought when we executed well, we got some great first attempts. ... There were a couple of breakdowns (and) in a game like this you can't have the breakdowns. You have to try to win every possession.
instead stopped taking trouble
I thought we got into trouble when they started pressuring us and the five-count was on. Instead of taking them off the dribble, we got tentative. I just think we stopped attacking.
aggression eight game last plays thinking tough
I thought some of our aggression just went away. It's tough to explain. It wasn't like they were thinking the game was over at the half. In the last eight minutes, they made more plays than we did.
bad gotten maybe sure tired
I think we may have gotten a little tired mentally. I'm not sure if we wanted it bad enough or not. Maybe we did, but I do know Clemson wanted it more than we did today.
build five goes start took wiped
It goes without saying, we start all over, we start from scratch. It's unfortunate that what took five years to build was wiped away with one season.
apart equation panic
Panic can't be apart of our equation right now. We just have to win.
guys memphis recruiting seen shooting teaching time west whoever
Over the time I've been recruiting in Memphis and West Tennessee, I've seen that the shooting is very good. Whoever is teaching these guys how to shoot is doing something right.
care consistent hard taken together
We haven't taken care of the ball. It's been so hard for us to put together consistent stretches in games.
georgia good liked night shoot
Thaddeus didn't shoot really well the other night, but the good thing about him is that he's not just a scorer. He can do other things, too. We also really liked his transcript. He's a Georgia Tech-type of kid.
boxing chance leave transition
When you don't do the little things - the boxing out, the transition defense, all the things you have to do - you leave it to a chance or you leave it to a bounce.
air ball force job mario point touches west
We need to do a better job of getting the ball in his hands. That's something we did not do well in the Air Force game. It's something we made a point of today, especially with Mario West out, to try to get him more touches and more involved. I still think, actually, he can get some more shots.
