When you talk about good attitude and working hard, start with him.
although beat both chance definitely finish high home teams
We still have a chance to finish as high as second, and definitely third, although there are a lot of tie-breakers involved. But we just have to go home and play both those teams and beat them.

We still have to look for them but we have to be more patient, we can't force them. And if you're not hitting those, you'd better establish that inside game.
call confidence extension guard hot knows leadership offense point teammates
With the leadership and the confidence he has in his teammates and the unselfishness that he has as that point guard now, he's able to orchestrate. He knows who's hot and where they want to get it. He knows the offense well enough now to know what to call and it's like an extension of the bench.

We got two tough games coming up, but if we get them both, we're right back in the hunt. It's a long way from over.

What he's done, accepting his role that way, has been a big part of this team.
