As tough as this league is, you can lose at any time. This gives us a one-game lead with eight to go. Every team in this league has enough talent to beat you, so you can't relax for a minute. |
By the end of the freshmen game, there were 2,500 here. Halfway through the JV game, they said there were 3,100. It was pretty electric. |
Even when we are not playing our best, we still find a way. We had a lot of different guys step up and make plays when we needed them to. |
He has to dedicate himself to getting into a little better shape so he can run the floor better, and he will have to be a better leader on the floor, and off the floor. He handles the ball well. He's got great hands, good feet. I think he'll be the best post player around, maybe in the state. |
He was the difference in both of our losses to them. We did focus on him a little more. But for some reason we lost him and he bombed a couple. |
I don't know if it was a hangover, but we just came out too passive. |
I look at a guy like Joe, who is just a sophomore, but he made a couple of big free throws down the stretch to help us preserve the lead. That shows me that even the younger guys are understanding what it takes to win. |
Joe's a good player, but he's only a sophomore. His father used to teach at Okemos, so I had a feeling he'd have a big game for us. |
Okemos was playing really well, and that had a lot more to do with it than us playing poorly. They were all over us; we couldn't buy a shot. But Tyler Reed played awfully well, and Joe Powers came through for us. |
Paul may not have scored (much), but I wouldn't trade (that). He dominated the inside. |
The season probably wouldn't be complete if we didn't get a chance to play them again. And I'm glad it's going to happen. |
We made some really bad choices and mistakes. We started playing fast instead of playing the way we play. We were almost in trouble. |
We've tried to tone it down as much as possible. But every time you turn around, someone's saying something else about it. |
