night poorly worked
We worked on everything we did poorly the other night (against UCLA).
against effort oregon proud tonight win
We're more proud of our effort tonight than we were in the win against Oregon State.
beaten team
We were beaten by the better team today, a team that manhandled us on the glass.
care coaching defend loved percent rely shoot teams
We've become one of those teams that has to rely on making shots. I've always loved coaching teams that can shoot 36 percent and win, because they rebound, defend and take care of the ball.
approach
We have to approach it like he won't be back.
casual great job lost pressure
We lost our poise. They did a better job in all areas. They put great pressure on us, we started making casual passes, one-handed passes.
believe forward gives gotta guys
I gotta believe it gives all of our guys something to look forward to.
remember wrong
If they can't remember that, then we've got the wrong guys.
came official
I don't know (what happened). I just told the official what I thought and I came out.
activity gone good hard intensity retaining running time
What you do see is activity and intensity with what he's doing. But he hasn't gone to the same place twice, and that's not good when you're running an offense. He's having a hard time retaining everything.
games pick plays
He continually makes big plays at the end of games for us. The pick at the end of the game was something we really needed.
ended learn nights offense run shoot
We just ended up on the outside, and when you do, you've going to have nights when you shoot poorly. We've got to learn to run our offense through the post. We just didn't get anything around the basket.
believe bounce capable easily either fortune good level people players playing prove shape winning word worse
We just don't want to prove them right. At the same time, I don't believe in the word 'overachieve.' I think people are either capable of winning and being 11-4 or they're not capable of it. Our players are capable of playing to this level and that's who we are right now, and we could very easily have been in worse shape without the fortune of a good bounce or two.
five might
We just don't have any depth. Sometimes, we might play five guards. We'll be tiny.
