I'm sure our style is faster than their style.

I'm sure that Roy (Williams) feels better about the placement of this game now.
|
I've always felt the first five minutes of the second half were critical. That sets a tone. We came out with fire in our eyes in that second half.
|
I've never had a guy work as hard every second as Mustafa. When we have our shoot around (today) he'll make every cut like it was a game-winner. He's developed into a solid leader.
|
I've not seen a time when we've played UCLA that we haven't been excited to play them.
|
If either of those two gets left off, something's wrong.
|
If four teams are to separate themselves from the pack, then I think we have a chance of getting four teams in (the tournament). If they don't, I can see the possibility of just three.
|
If it's a game where the other team is changing defenses and stuff, he's not quite ready for that.
|
If they are going to be a good team, they have to be a good team for 40 minutes. You can't be a good one for 20 minutes. That's what we face.
|
If we are going to get five in our conference, we need to have five teams being dominant. If it's a case of everybody knocking each other off it's going to hurt the number of teams we are getting in.
|
If you take a look at how they played most of the teams other than Cal at ASU (88-58 last month), they have been very competitive. If you gave them a few more points that record could be very different.
|
In looking at the tapes, if you take a look at the shots they got from three, there were not many open shots. There were a lot of those that were under unbelievable pressure.
|
In practices we've been running Mustafa and J.P. against one another. Now we did put them together a couple of days ago and they played very well together. We just feel the best competition there for them will be against one another.
|
In terms of looking at Marcus and comparing him with other players who have come through this program, I would say Marcus is more like Sean than anybody else. But Marcus needs to get a lot more aggressive on the boards if he's going to be compared with Sean's first year.

In the first half we could not buy a basket. Washington made us take the shots that they wanted us to take. Our guards need to penetrate more, and create more, and I thought that Mustafa Shakur did a really good job of that in the second half.
