00:00 >> So we stayed composed, I feel like we showed a lot of maturity and
00:03 like I said, we kept the lead and we didn't let it get too close to our goal today.
00:07 So we kept the lead, kept the space out and we just did all the right plays at the end.
00:11 Judah was hot, we kept giving it all, we knew what the mismatch was and
00:14 that's what we just kept doing.
00:15 >> Coach had mentioned taking things obviously one game at a time, but
00:18 for your last five, you guys have won.
00:20 Do you feel like you're starting to maybe play some of your best basketball when
00:24 it matters most as much right now?
00:25 >> No, not at all.
00:26 At the end of the day, we just play basketball, and I think it's always another level we go to.
00:32 Cuz if so, the case where we'd be beating these teams by 30.
00:34 So that's just how I really look at it at the end of the day.
00:37 But I feel like there's always improvement to do it, but
00:39 I feel like we're definitely improving, but we never let our foot off the gas.
00:43 >> A ton of success at home this year.
00:45 Just what can you say about playing in front of the fans here in the Dome and
00:48 just having the success that you guys have this year?
00:50 >> It's beautiful.
00:50 I feel like as the record shows, how we play at home, and
00:54 the fans, they show so much love.
00:57 They're always there for us no matter how it goes.
00:59 So we just try to always get the wins for them, so we just stay that way.
01:03 >> Mr. George, you took the opportunity to get these players straight to you.
01:06 How's it been working with those guys?
01:08 >> We've been scoring, really.
01:09 We've been getting the ball from the right people, and the right people.
01:12 We've been getting the basketball.
01:14 Our scorers, we've been stepped up tremendously.
01:17 Chris Bell, obviously, shoots us off, and that's been a problem.
01:21 >> Things like that, those things, man.
01:25 >> What are some of the other concepts that are important to you guys?
01:32 >> I can't give you too many secrets, but whatever we're seeing, short rule,
01:37 things like that, letting Malik being able to make decisions,
01:40 because as you see, a great passer at his position.
01:43 So starting to just let everybody be able to make decisions,
01:46 and we're starting to get good results.
