00:00 you guys to pull off these last three wins before you head out the road? How
00:04 important was it for you guys to establish home court?
00:07 I mean it was great. I mean it's tough after dropping our first home game. We obviously wish we would have won that in the
00:15 season opener but the way we bounced back and won these three has been great
00:20 to I mean a great sign for us and for us to just keep going it's great. And just
00:28 as you continue learning from these last three games how do you guys carry over
00:32 what you've done well in terms of executing? Yeah we got to we got to
00:36 continue to do the things that we're doing good in those those moments and
00:40 spurts and we didn't finish the way we should have tonight and kind of
00:46 let them make it a game at the end but we played really good after that first
00:51 quarter and we got to carry carry that momentum over and try to start off that
00:57 way and finish that whole way through. Trey, seven players in double figures tonight.
01:03 What do you say about that kind of balance? It's been a lot like that recently. It's been a lot.
01:07 That's what we need. We need to just keep I mean I like to say
01:12 everybody eats around here. I like seeing everybody eating and making plays and
01:17 it's great to see I mean DJ having a rhythm again. Dre making some some tough
01:23 plays. Sadiq making some plays tonight and I mean it's great for us. We're gonna
01:28 have to keep it going and keep making plays. Trey, you and DJ and you two of you
01:32 guys what have you really liked about you guys playing together this year?
01:37 Like what is working for you guys? You guys kind of seem like you're in the rhythm tonight.
01:40 Yeah I mean like you just you see I mean my shot still hasn't fallen yet and
01:44 we're still winning games which is good for me but you can see like the way
01:49 we're playing off each other it's not just I'm getting a pick and roll this
01:53 time and he's getting it this time. It could be like that but for the most part
02:02 we're like we're we're running the offense and for me it's more about
02:06 taking care of the ball, taking care of the ball. These last couple games a lot
02:09 better than I've been and that's been a main focus for me and so I just got to
02:14 keep doing that. Trey, you talk about this being still very very early in the
02:18 season. We talked to coach about you know things that you all have been
02:22 pressed with thus far this early in the season that you didn't think would come
02:25 together as quickly. Is there anything specific that you can point to about
02:28 this team that has come together quicker than what you would have thought at the
02:32 moment? I mean I think our defense like our defense has been like a big a big
02:37 thing a big thing for us and just our defense finishing the possessions I mean
02:51 we're scrambling making different plays and it's been fun like this the energy
02:56 from the bench rotations are different because guys are hot people are
03:01 accepting it so like it's just a fun fun vibe.
03:06 The wraparound assist like for me like I've seen I seen DJ going to the corner
03:20 for me I'm never looking at the guys guarding me so like I'm always looking
03:24 at the the help man the defender behind him and so for me I drove by mine and I
03:29 seen the help guy come over and another help guy about to take the big man so
03:34 for me it's that next person I had I have to be able to throw it blindly and
03:39 I mean that's just the trust I have my teammates that they're going to be there
03:42 for me I've practiced that pass so many times that I know I know where it should
03:49 be and how high it should be and I mean some would call it luck on how it
03:55 got there into his chest but for me like I've really I really work on those type
03:58 of things and I do have a lot of trust my teammates being in those positions too
04:02 and that's how you know we're getting better and we're having a really good
04:05 offense.
