Fools And Foolishness Quotes
I'd be a fool if I said I wasn't looking at the clock every couple of seconds. But we played really hard. I was just excited to be in this position. Obviously it hurts to lose, we're all sore losers. But they have five NBA players on their team, they were bigger than us at every spot.

Almost Quotes
He made a great catch. That was a huge play. Changed the field position, put us in position to run the clock out. ... He did what he was supposed to do. Tom read it, laid it out there, and Bethel ran it down. I mean, we always tell Tom just throw it out there as far as you can and make him run for it. He can't overthrow him -- he almost did -- but Bethel ran it down.

Attention Quotes
We're on the field for four hours anyway. Our games have gone 3:50, 3:40 and 3:30. You want to get my attention and my ire up, let's start talking about shortening the game. To me, this is not smart on our part. We could take some plays out that nobody would miss by running the clock in some situations.

Adapt Quotes
Juvenile salmon have a biological clock that begins ticking as soon as they begin their trip to the ocean. They need to undergo changes that will allow them to adapt from fresh water creatures to salt water creatures and arrive at the ocean at the same time their bodies have completed the transformation.

Ate Quotes
Last game, we got behind and started throwing the ball and threw two picks early, and it was just a tough game from there. This game was more our style. We got out and scored and kept the lead and ate up clock and ran the ball. That's what our team's about, not throwing the ball all the time.
-
Aggressive Quotes
I thought the first 25 minutes is maybe as well as we played all season long. We went through a period then where we relaxed a little bit. The defensive end lost a little bit of our aggressiveness and then offensively we weren't aggressive in getting the ball inside and let the shot clock run down several times.
-
Bit Quotes
I think after a while, after we start missing the easy shots, I think we start pressing a little bit and trying to make up for the easy shots that we missed and we just continued to miss. At one point I remember looking at the clock when we had 33 points and I don't remember the next time we scored. Then, the same thing happened in the third quarter when we just could not make a shot.
-
Against Quotes
I think it's that we got a chance to practice a few days, give ourselves a chance to focus on how we want to get our shots and where we want them to come from. I think we're doing a better job of slowing down offensively when we don't have anything initially in transition and calling our sets and getting to the spots we want to get to. At least for the most part we're not forcing Baron or Jason or somebody to make a play against the shot clock every time.
-
Good Quotes
Our clock management is where we need a little improvement. We had a nine-point lead in the third quarter, and we weren't being patient enough. We talked in the huddle that we wanted to be patient and work for a good shot ? not necessarily stalling. But there was no reason to take a 3-point shot or a jumper when you have that kind of cushion.
-
Came Quotes
That (concern) was warranted. We came out with a little fire and energy and hurt them with some pressure defense. We got up to, what, a 10-point lead? But we're in a transition period, trying to learn how to play with a lead. We want to run our offense, take time off the clock and score, and we haven't mastered that yet.
-
Ball Quotes
I was hoping we could keep pressure on them the entire game. As the game started to wear down, we started looking at the clock a bit. With the young kids, that is going to happen. We felt coming in here that we could win. We should have run the ball some more. We also might have been one kid short.
-
Ability Quotes
I think one of the big keys was our ability to control the basketball and get good shots. We were able to run some clock off and shoot a good percentage. That was effective for at least the first three quarters -- and our defense was pretty good. Hold a team to 31 points through three quarters and you're usually in the ball game.

Bit Quotes
I think he's a lot more ready offensively than he was, but I still get on him about defensive lapses. There's a little bit Riverboat Gambler, which makes him effective offensively so you don't want to squash that too much. But you try to make him understand how the scoreboard works and the clock and how you have to make smart plays.
