Eli's a good all-around player. He can face the basket or post up, and he very unselfish, keeping his teammates involved. He plays a good role for them and doesn't make a lot of mistakes. |
It was tough and these kids didn't give up. We hit a couple shots and some foul shots, got a couple steals and a couple charges. They laid it on the line. |
That's what it comes down to. When you have the opportunity to make play, you've got to make it. |
That's what makes it more rewarding, winning a game where every point is contested, every pass is contested. |
They jumped on us early and often. |
We challenged Adrian to become more of a force inside. And Alex played solid backcourt basketball and was a steadying influence for us. We were more consistent on both offense and defense this time. |
We've progressed, the question is have we progressed enough. We'll know in the next 10 days. |
