basketball great knew proved saw south team
I knew it wasn't (a fluke). I saw them play South Central. They're a great basketball team and they really proved it tonight.
continued floor four run team tonight
I thought tonight was a team win. We had four non-starters on the floor and the run continued to the end of the quarter.
confidence defense defensive good hoping intensity night played score shooting turned turning
They turned up the defensive intensity and that was the turning point. I thought we played pretty good defense all night too, but you've got to score in the 50s. We're not shooting with confidence right now. We're shooting hoping we don't miss.
heck middle next parking practicing school took week
I took those things away and we had a heck of a week of practice. I told them (at halftime) we would be practicing in the parking lot at the middle school next week.
basketball four good gotten happy
I'm happy with that. But we're a good basketball team. It never should have gotten to 20. It should have been four and then when we make our run, we get ahead.
against gave good ourselves position proud win
We put ourselves in position to win the game. We're proud of these kids. They never gave up against a very good team.
against behind couple error guard margin minutes nick ontario point puts team
We didn't have much of a margin for error with Nick out. Then our back-up point guard has two fouls a couple of minutes into the game. Against a team like Ontario that puts you behind the 8-ball.
