They bring good size. They aren't so big for us because we play a lot of teams with size, though. Hopefully, we will be used to playing with teams that size, which I think we are. |
We did have pretty good spacing. |
We had some young guys and they weren't mentally tough enough to handle that. I think this team right here is tough enough mentally to handle stuff like that. |
We had them right there at the end of the game. We got the steal and came down and Pryce got inside and couldn't get the ball up. He did a good job getting down there. |
We knew we were going to have to run the offense more and move the ball quickly around the perimeter to create shots. We were patient and took good shots. |
We sit down in that zone and guard the perimeter, and kept our feet and quit reaching. That's why we went to the zone, because we were reaching too much. I think we did a good job of shadowing them and kept them from penetrating. And it prevented us from getting deeper in foul trouble. |
We want to get back to state anytime, regardless of who we're playing. We wanted to get back to the championship, but what playing Forest Park does is they can put faces with that team. When you say Forest Park, they can see those guys and understand who they are from playing them last year. |
We were up and down, trying new kids in new spots, nobody was familiar with each other. The kids finally got used to it and got used to playing well with everybody. It just comes from practicing all the time and doing what you do best. |
You never get used to it. It is a traditional thing wanting to get down here. |
You've got to be able to play both ends of the floor or you're not going to play. If we can settle down and play defense, we're going to be pretty good. |
