Having been there already, I have a feel for the types of things (Hamilton) needs to know and some of the things I don't need to burden him with, especially when he's moving from game to game to game. You have to be sure he gets the meat and potatoes, and you don't bother him with the peas and carrots. |
I'd like to think the guys feel like they have something to prove. Each and every game we play has a lot at stake, but it's been like that for a few weeks. Rather than us getting used to it, I would like to think it has grown on us and that we're enjoying the challenge. |
Inevitably you're going to question yourself and say, 'Could I have done this a little differently and could I have done that differently?' You get just a slice of what it feels like to be the head coach when that happens. You take a little bit more of the responsibility. |
It's going to be like an away game. But we're not even going to talk about it. We won't mention it to them. Hopefully, the game will start and they won't even notice. |
When you get done with one, you start thinking about the other right away. |
