living question
The first thing he said was no question you can do the job. But would you like living there?
cover fifteen minutes needed screaming time
Fifteen minutes (at halftime) wasn't enough time to cover all the things we needed to cover. It wasn't screaming and yelling. It was more pleading.
mac similar
They'll be very similar to the widgets you see in Apple's Mac OS X.
balls basketball concerned far lose quicker standing team
They were killing us on the glass. They got to lose balls quicker than we did. We were standing around and watching. We have so far to go as a basketball team; I'm done with this game. I'm more concerned with where our team is headed.
allow calling information online people rather specific web
People go online to do specific things and widgets allow them to get to the information they want immediately, rather than calling up Web pages.
ncaa question temple
I don't think there's any question Temple will be in the NCAA Tournament.
defensive figure hook letting offense order quick shots shows slow stay staying taking team teams within
In order for us to stay in the game, we had to figure out how to slow them down. The first thought was defensive transition. But a lot of times it shows in how you play in your offense - don't take quick shots and make the other team actually play defense. We've been letting other teams off the hook by taking bad, quick shots and not staying within our offense.
basketball coming forget games great huge lose ready remember
You never forget games like that. When you lose like that, you always remember it. We know they're going to be ready for us. Temple's a great basketball team, and they're coming off of two huge wins, so we know they're going to be prepared.
proud
I know theyll get better training, ... Im proud of what they are doing.
close guys motivating played run start teams trying
We'll try anything at this point. We've been close on the road. We've not played that bad. We've just run into some better teams than us. We have to start really trying to look at motivating our guys a little differently on the road. Hopefully, it will come.
future looks
We're really not that good. We're overachieving here and there. But the future looks bright.
confidence gain road tough
You have to gain some confidence on the road to get over it. We've just had to play some very, very tough teams.
afford basketball good half help scrappy shooting team
Twenty-nine turnovers didn't help us at all. Shooting 1-for-9 in 3-pointers in the first half didn't help us. But, man, they're a scrappy basketball team. They play in those spurts and that's what makes them good. They can afford not to play well in 2- or 3-minute spans. We can't. We're not good enough of a basketball team to do that.
shape
The way to make coaches think you're in shape in the spring is to get a tan.
