extra guys hold player running shut
I was disappointed in Aaron's involvement. I didn't see it. I'll need to look at the tape. If we need to do some extra running for Aaron, it's what we should do. Our guys don't need to do those kind of things. Just shut up, get hold of your own player and get out of there.
fire happen happy quit team walk
I was dumfounded. We didn't have the fire ... it was the most disappointing thing that we've had to happen all season. But other than that (stretch), I was happy with the effort. ... But if I ever have a team to quit, I'll walk out of here and quit coaching.
looking
I was just, ... looking into his eyes.
freshmen gained health michael nearly rest tyler
It was really frustrating because I think the freshmen particularly could have gained so, so much. For example, I think Tyler and Michael did. But the rest of them didn't gain nearly as much as they could have because of the health situation.
catch coming defensive forcing intensity key loss night playing tough
It was a tough night for Asheville to catch us, coming off that loss and playing the way we did. I really thought the whole key was our defensive intensity and forcing turnovers.
breakdown practice total
It was a total breakdown of what we like to think we practice every day. Very, very disappointing afternoon.
backing counter instead runs soft
It was a sensational day for us. When they made their runs we were able to counter instead of being soft and backing off and being tentative.
kids understand
It was important for me to get the kids to understand that hey, we're all right.
ball came punched won
It shouldn't have came down to the officials. We should have punched that ball in and should have won this game.
absolutely ride wonderful
It's been an absolutely wonderful ride with my team.
couple credit last liked seemed watched
It seemed like they scored on the last 10 possessions. Part of it is you always have to give credit to the other team. I like their club. I watched them a couple times last year. You have to give them credit. We didn't play as intelligently as we'd have liked to.
dominated guards
Their guards dominated the game. We couldn't get enough stops.
again compete danny execute survive trying tyler
You like the way you can compete and execute down the stretch, but we do feel very fortunate. We thought Tyler was very big again inside, to say the least, and Danny made some big baskets for us as well. Survive and advance, that's what we're trying to do.
believe difficult league nine seven teams top
Top to bottom, this is the most difficult I've ever been in. I believe we've got some seven to nine teams in this league that are in the top 64 in this country.
