catch free good math throws
I've never been a good math student, but you're not going to catch up if they're making free throws and we're not making jumpers.
anyone chase good half instead seen since
That's as good a first half as I've ever seen anyone play since I've been at Hofstra. It's good to have them chase you, instead of the other way around.
good guys motivate people prove
I don't think it will take very much to motivate our guys and let them know that now we have to go prove to people how good we are.
anyone good half seen since
That was as good a first half as I've seen anyone play since I've been at Hofstra.
basketball caught good hard third time whether
I don't get caught up in that. I just know it's hard to be a good basketball team, whether it's the first or third time you play them.
excuses great
There were no excuses at the end. We had a great dinner, but didn't have a great dessert.
foul game
I thought we had the game won. The foul on the 3-point jumper, I don't know man. It didn't look like it was much.
fond foul found incredibly issues small zone
It was a hard-fought game, as we thought it would be. We had some issues with foul trouble, so we had to go small for a while and we had to play zone (defense), which I'm not incredibly fond of. But we found a way to win.
beat stay understand
I can't understand what more we could've done. Where I come from, when you beat a team, you stay on the court.
among bring coaches guys overseas players
Many of them are among the better players in the conference. You don't see coaches going overseas to bring back guys who aren't going to play. They have to be high-level players.
brought delaware fight minutes next
I told the guys, in the next 20 minutes we'll know what we are. They brought the fight to us. I give Delaware credit.
double gotten great handling smith
Smith has gotten so much better at handling double teams. He's just a great player. We got a little lucky.
chance deal dinner garden great pie piece
I don't want to deal with any of that right now. We had a great dinner here but we didn't have a chance for dessert. Going to the Garden would have been a great piece of pie for us.
guess seen
I've never seen him do that. That's when I said I guess this isn't our night.
