We're an inside-oriented team right now, so I think if we don't control the inside the way that I hope we would, then I think were going to have trouble. I think we've at least held our own with them on the boards in the first two games. The first game we actually dominated them on the boards. |
We've been disjointed all year. We've had injuries, suspensions, and it's not an easy thing in college basketball, or anywhere, to not have consistency - and we really haven't had that. |
We've got to finish the plays, and we didn't do enough of that last time. That's something we've stressed over the past couple days in practice. [The key to the game] is in how efficiently are we gonna run our offense. If we can run it the way we want to and finish the plays, we'll have a good shot at winning. |
What's plagued us in general is we've struggled making outside shots. I think we did hurt them bad inside [last time]. |
When you?re running uphill like that (it?s tough). When we got it down to four I called time-out because we were exhausted. |
You have to just gradually get your rhythm back when you're struggling a bit as he has been. |
You've got to give the guys who played a lot of credit. We ended up having to scramble and play some of those other guys at strange positions. |
