We may as well jump on (Moore?s) back. He?s carrying us and really playing steady basketball. He?s put together some back-to-back games offensively for us that are about as good as you can ask of a junior. |
We missed some shots around the basket we would like to have back. But the defense held together. |
We must make good decisions with the ball and limit unforced turnovers. Rebounding will be key on both ends of the floor. |
We need his rebounding and those five or six points around the basket. |
We need to show we can go on the road and play like this. I'll take this one don't get me wrong, but we need to go on the road and show a little toughness. And it'll take some toughness at Van Buren. |
We play such great defense, our kids take pride in it. Defense is what wins for us. |
We played exceptionally well that game and that's where I got the first clue that this could be something special. A lot of people were doubting whether this team would be any different than any of the other Rogers teams of the past and I think we answered that. |
We were taking steps before but this is a leap right now. We're looking pretty good (to reach the playoffs). I like my chances right now. |
We will tweak some things and shuffle things offensively. Defensively, the injury isn't as much as a concern because we have some kids that can play the four spot. |
We?re showing signs of playing our best basketball as we?re approaching March. That?s where you want to be at. |
We?re trying to keep the heat on. It should be a high intensity game I would think. |
We'll take a back seat and see what happens around the league. It'll be nice to watch these other guys sweat it. |
We're trying to start a new tradition here. This crowd, the fan support, the energy for Rogers basketball … I think the kids are feeding off of that. They've got a lot of confidence about themselves, otherwise we would have folded as bad as we played offensively. |
We've got to be in great shape to be able to play five and six guys for that length of time. Our kids are in great shape. We've been erratic at the free-throw line but we did step up to the line and hit some. The first thing to go if you're tired is going to be your legs. If those goes then those free throws are going to be pretty hard to make. |
