Greg did a great job for us. We lost both of those guys and they are really our two best post players. Then they could really pick up the pressure on the perimeter even more. |
I think the defenses are so much more improved and the kids are so much more physical. It wears you down and teams get tired after the fourth or fifth game. |
I thought we played well for three quarters and even in the fourth quarter we didn't play that poorly. We had open looks at the basket. The shots wouldn't fall for us and they did for them. |
If you're going to call timeout in that situation, you have to get a better shot than that. I was disappointed in myself and disappointed in that shot we had there at the end. |
It's a big win for us and the kids played well together. We had more kids play the way they're capable of playing tonight probably than any other night this year. |
It's all about winning and moving on. You have to be a little bit lucky, but I thought defensively, it was one of our better efforts. |
Our goal coming in was to be playing in the evening session. I do know we can do that. It's another tough game tomorrow against our neighbors. There's not many secrets there. |
We didn't make a whole lot of shots in the second half. Anytime that happens, you have to give the other team some credit. I thought they did a good job trying to take away what we were trying to run. We did get the open looks; we just didn't put enough of them in the hole. |
We weren't just playing for this year's team, we were playing for those seniors all last year's team, too. I think that helped motivate the kids a little bit. |
