I was thinking that we had been here before. |
I was thinking we had been here before in a lot of our games. They were doing everything right and we couldn't make a shot. We kept saying to stay positive and stay on top of them. We knew we couldn't give up. |
I was worried we wouldn't get back and defend, but we had a couple of hands up. Our guys didn't let it get away. |
I would like to see that. But more importantly, I would rather see a win. |
I'd like to say I had it all drawn up, but we were just trying to get the guys in the game who could create havoc on defense and score on offense. |

It's hard to put into words what this is like. |
It's huge. I've been trying not to lose it, but I might be getting close. I've never had a group of kids ... over the last three years, we've developed something where they really do believe. You reap what you sow. We're so blessed and thankful for the opportunity. For them to believe, we can do all things. If we just focus in and believe - in your faith, in your team, whatever - you can make some amazing things happen. |
It's when you make shots. Not how many shots you make. There was no doubt that he would be the one to take that shot. |
