defense easy good man post stuff until
I thought our post defense was good tonight. We didn't give them a whole lot of easy stuff until late. Overall, I thought it was a good man defense.
care crowds guys liked road stuff team
Savo and those guys were aggressive. They didn't care where we were. They liked going on the road because the crowds and stuff got them mad. This team doesn't have that kind of fire.
cutting run standard stuff work
They run a lot of standard stuff. We have to work more on our stuff ? cutting down the turnovers, especially.
bob defend extra guy hard hurt improve matured nights quicker scoring stuff time worked
He's matured as a player. He has worked hard with (associate coach) Bob (Nash) with a lot of extra stuff to try to improve his scoring output. He's called on to defend a smaller, quicker guy most of the time, too. Some nights he got hurt with it, but most of the time he's been good.
match tough
I think we match up better with Boise. That's why this was a tough one to lose.
confidence game games gives hang offense ran run shoot stretch tried win worked
It gives you confidence that you can hang in games and come back and win them. Before, we tried to play a different game down the stretch on the road, run and shoot them out. (Last week) we ran our offense and worked it and did a much better job.
four looks might slip split start three win
I said at the start of the season, win them all at home, split on the road, and you're going to be there. And it looks like four (losses) could do it, three (losses) might slip in.
beginning four looking losses realistic three win year
I said at the beginning of the year that you could have three or four losses and still win the league. That's looking more realistic now.
caught exactly likes matt shot strong took
We got exactly what we wanted. Julian likes that shot that he took and Matt caught it and was a little strong on it.
bit fast floor lost push spots transition trying work
We've lost our transition game, we've got to get that back and the fast break. We're working on trying to get out and get down the floor a little bit better and work on our break. We have to find our spots and push it.
calling guys power scoring
Our power guys inside, I'm calling them floaters now because there's no power. We're not scoring in the paint.
bring depends guys special team willing
It depends on who else we bring (from recruiting). But what made this year's team so special is that we had guys willing to play different positions.
sharp
It disappoints me that we're not as sharp as we should be at this stage. But it's a win.
hit shots
Julian hit the shots and was really slashing without the ball, and was getting some inside-outside stuff.
