coming high knowing losing
Same old story, same old story. We just can't get it. It's crazy. It's so frustrating. It's frustrating to the high degree, to be out there knowing we can win and coming out on the losing end all the time.
lost playing second stayed
I kind of lost it for a second because of the call. But we were playing so well, there wasn't any use for me to go over there and pout. I just stayed in the game.
deserve games win
I told the guys, we didn't deserve to win games then. Now, I think we do.
good mindset oh people
Some people may go out and think, oh this isn't a good team, so they get lackadaisical. We know we have a good team, though. We have to keep the mindset this is a good team.
guys hit key needed shots stepped
I don't think it was fatigue. They just rimmed out, hit the back of the rim. When we really needed shots in the end, guys stepped up and made key shots.
played team tonight
We could've played a high-school team tonight and been jazzed up.
basketball beat believed coming time types win
We believed the whole time we could beat these types of teams. We're not coming out just to play. We're coming out to win basketball games.
breakdown close games hurts mental work
To think back on those games that we have lost, the close games, it hurts you. It hurts you to know what we could do better. We put so much work into it and then come into the game and just have a mental breakdown offensively and defensively. We just want to scream.
came win
We didn't come here to play one or two games. We came here to win the championship.
beat felt game lost point tonight
We felt like we should've beat them, but we just lost focus. Tonight we had more focus. It was the same game plan. There really wasn't a point where we lost it.
apply box game good practice
We can do all the drills in the world, but we have to apply it in the game. We look so good in practice doing them, then we come out in the game and it's not the same. ... We have to rebound. We have to box out on every play. We have to do the little things.
coaches smiles
There are a lot of smiles at practices. The coaches are even making jokes.
confidence good shown
We know what we can do. The confidence is already there. We haven't been as good as we are. We haven't shown our abilities. But we will.
basketball held minutes played
We played all 40 minutes of that basketball game. We held them.
