everybody team wants
Everybody on every team is beat-up physically. Now it's about the mind. Who wants it more?

Every time Lee shoots, I think it's going in. He's just that good of a shooter.
great guys job physical preparing
It's a physical drill. I think it's done a great job preparing those guys for our games.
bad key knocked transition
They knocked down threes. That was the key to the game. We were bad in transition and they knocked down threes.

Honestly, I didn't. He's probably the most-improved player in America. He just has so much heart and wants to win so bad.
basketball college final good opportunity team
That's every player's dream, to get to the Final Four. That's what you play college basketball for. We have an opportunity to get there, but we have to play a good team first.
confidence help knew practice
They responded great. We knew they were going to have come in and help us. That's why they practice with us every day. We have confidence in them.
coach half listen shots upset
Coach kind of got upset that we didn't listen to him. We can't let half our shots be threes in the first half.
last matter revenge team
It didn't really matter who we played. We don't see it as revenge from last year; we don't see it as payback because this year's team is a different team. They're a different team. We do different stuff, they do different stuff.
breath clock hit knocked luckily pause screen short shot somehow tried wind
I tried to set a screen on him. He knocked the wind out of me. His butt hit me in my stomach. Luckily there was a short pause in the game, the shot clock wasn't working or something. So I somehow managed to get my breath back.
adjust crowd seemed
It just seemed like they were getting every call. Even the crowd was working the refs. But you've just got to play through it. If you're not getting the calls, you've got to adjust to the officials.
bunch david everybody good great matt players prove talk three
All the talk was about Anthony, Matt and David leaving. Those three are great players, but we have a bunch of good players that returned. We just wanted to prove to everybody that we can play.
bought coaches everybody executing game good job listening looked plan playing team themselves win
After that (Alabama) game we had a team meeting. I think everybody looked at themselves and everybody bought into what will win games. I think we've done a good job listening to coaches and just going out and executing the game plan and just playing smart.
everybody stepped team total
This whole team should be the MVP. Everybody stepped up big for us (this weekend) and it was a total team effort.
