I just keep telling our guys to play defense and rebound. It is about as simple as that.
It's like playing your dad one-on-one. You spend so much time trying to beat him, and when you finally do, you almost feel bad. Jim meant so much to me, I would not be here if not for him.
It just comes down to being able to do the little things right like playing defense. Once you start losing it just all seems to pile up when you have such a young team.
Sometimes I feel like we play a little scared. I think we play not to lose rather than play to win sometimes. That always happens when we start pressing a little too much.
They really battled out there. We are playing better every game and I think we are starting to grow into our roles as a team.
Our game plan is to work from the inside out. We want to get inside and then when that starts to get taken away we can kick that ball out to our 3-point shooters.
Our kids need to just start being selfish in the off- season, meaning that they need to be committed to becoming better every day. Next season starts right now.
He just played great. He really is a good shooter and showed some range tonight.
We knew they were eventually going to (make a run). They're too good a team not to. When they did, we just didn't quite respond.
We have to recover from this and go on the road Wednesday.
