Billy?s doing a great job spreading the floor and making you guard them. |
But we would have traded all the awards for a chance to still be playing. |
Every time it seemed like we were making progress, something happened ... Bernard's injury, Bo Taylor's dismissal. For a while, we struggled. |
Every time volunteers go out and help after a house fire, they're doing it on the faith that we're going to get the money from somewhere to pay that bill. We need community support to keep doing the good things we're doing. |
Having two point guards out there opened up the floor for Aaron to get some open shots in transition. With three guards, our perimeter defense got a lot better. Baker is our best on-the-ball defender. With him in the lineup, we became a lot more aggressive defensively. |
He didn't take us by surprise, but I didn't expect him to shoot the ball as well as he did. We were focusing on [other guys] as their scorers. [Coleman] had a few nice backdoor cuts and a couple [two] three-pointers that made a difference. He did a good job of running that team and he played very well. |
He really is a model citizen and a model student athlete. |
He's so quick and so good with the ball. It seemed like he could turn it on pretty much whenever he wanted to. |
I don't know that you get a whole lot out of losing and saying that you played well. But I thought we played really hard. We didn't quit, and we weren't intimidated. |
I think sometimes we rely too much on Kenny alone. We play a much better game when we play a full game, relying on our shooting and contesting other teams shots. |
I thought we played really hard for a 10-minute spurt in the second half. We tried to create turnovers and speed the game up. But we were down by over 20 to a good team that plays ball control, and it was too much to overcome. |
It seemed like he could turn it on anytime he wanted to. |
It stretched us pretty thin. |
It was just after a tough loss [54-40], and it was a moment of frustration on the way to the locker room. He scraped his knuckles. There was no serious damage, no swelling. |
It's a good draw. New Hampshire is a team that we definitely respect, they're the only team that beat Albany, and when they're shooting they are extremely tough to defend. |
