finest floor game jamie offense played
Jamie played his finest floor game of the year, on offense and defense.
compete game good
I feel we can compete with anyone. We have to play a good game and we can't make any mistakes.
amazed best game improved practice unique worked
His whole game improved because he worked at it during the summer. That's when you become better. One thing very unique about him is, he is, by far, the best tipper I ever coached. Sometimes in practice and in games, he just amazed me.
catch caused face finest hard problems shooting teams worked
I thought that they were one of the finest shooting teams that we have played. When they could catch and face they were tough, they worked hard and caused problems for us.
defense good overall pleased
I thought our overall defense was exceptionally good tonight. I was pleased with that.
double four guys rely
We had four guys in double figures, so we didn't have to rely on one person.
anybody
Those two play better as a tandem then anybody I have had.
game leading taking tonight worried
We're taking one game at a time. I was really worried about tonight - they were 11-2 and leading the (Wisconsin) Little 10 (at 6-0).
against ball few forced happen hold picked pressed run start teams tried
We picked them up full-court and pressed because we didn't want them to start stalling on us. In the past, teams have tried to hold the ball against us. We didn't want that to happen tonight, so we forced a few turnovers and started to run a little bit.
against great guys last looked loose pushing tired tonight
Actually, I thought we looked more tired in our last two games. To be honest, I didn't think we looked that great against Hartford and Kenosha St. Joe's. I think I may have been pushing these guys a little too hard. So tonight I told them to just play your game. Play loose and have fun.
backed ball gave inside people shoot
(Roncalli) backed off of him and gave him that shot. A lot of times people think that we just try to get the ball inside ... but we can shoot the 3, too.
defense high level
Our defense is good. I think it's at a high level now.
beat given good playing row seeds sky won
They're playing really good ball. They will be sky high. They've won so many in a row and they beat the No. 1 and 2 seeds and that's given them a lot of confidence.
beat best chance offense people spread took
A lot of people thought that Roncalli had the best chance to beat us and they took us right to the end. With the offense that they run, they had us all spread out.
