This might be a game where I have to rely on my dribble a little bit more, to try to get around pressure and create opportunities. |
We all lifted before practice, and everybody had a great attitude. On the court, everybody was on edge. Our drills were crisp. There were hardly any errors. |
We definitely remember those two losses. So any time you get a chance to get a win against a team that beat you twice, especially in a championship game, that would be nice. |
We don't talk a whole lot about going undefeated for the season. We do say that we want to keep that zero in the loss column, the longer, the better. |
We had worked against the zone. But we didn't move the ball nearly as well as in the past. |
We knew we had to keep working in the second 20 minutes. We just kept working and working. |
We lost a lot going into the season, so this has been a little bit surprising. Our team has done a good job of just being a team. |
We prepared well. This is probably the best we've played the whole tournament. |
We saw the White House from the outside, but to actually be able to go inside and meet the president was pretty neat. |
We still we have a chance. It's not totally in our control, but there is still a chance and I think our guys are pretty confident. We've just got to play and take care of our wins and losses and see what happens. |
We'll find that out in the next few days. |
We're aware Florida hasn't made it out of the first weekend in a few years, but we're also aware this is a new year. This year is not determined by what happened last year. We've got a different-looking team than we've had in the past. We've got a chance to make a run this year. |
We're aware Florida hasn't made it out of the first weekend. But we are also aware that this is a new team, and this is a different team. |
We've got some time to rest up. I think we'll be fine. |
Your left hand is still pretty important. Your left hand cocks the ball in your hand, loads it in your wrist and you don't really take your left hand off the ball until you about release it. So you still have to have pretty good range of motion on your left hand. |
