(He's) a big factor. That's speed that no one really has in the league, and it's hard to match. It makes us real quick. If he's knocking down shots and going crazy, and he's done that before, then he can easily average 20 to 25 points (in this series).

We didn't fight real hard for part of the second and things snowballed. They got some quick transition buckets, and we couldn't get shots to drop. Their size makes it awful tough to match up with them; we didn't have real good looks at the basket and we forced some shots.

[Although opinions vary on just how much of an impact the new guidelines are having -- and whether they are good for the game -- most league observers agree they have contributed to the rise in scoring. Overall NBA teams are averaging 96.3 points per game, up nearly four points from a year ago at this time. Eight teams currently average more than 100 points a game, compared to just two a season ago.] I'd have to say it's been a major factor, ... It's giving teams incentive to attack the basket, which has led to higher percentage shots and better quality shots.

He is sort of the 'X factor' in their offense. [He's] quick, very quick, and real clever, too. He makes a difference when he's healthy.

Quick -- isn't he quick? He made that happen there in the eighth inning. ... Speed is a constant. It's at the ballpark every day. It makes the infielders shorten up a little. It makes them, in running situations, get a little closer to the bag. Creates more holes for hitters. And then it makes pitchers slide step and concentrate more on the baserunner than the hitter. So it's a big advantage having some speed.

We had two down-to-the-wire games with (CSU). Colorado State makes shots and makes hard shots. They have the ability to score in a lot of places and a lot of ways and that concerns me. We have to make sure we dictate the pace by guarding hard. We can't have a race to 100 points. We have to guard.

Basketball is a game of runs. Everybody can easily run off 10 or 12 points real quick. It is just how we respond when they start going on a run.

You knew he was long and would be a factor that way. But he has very quick reactions. He's a quick second-jumper. He has not only blocked a lot of shots but changed a lot of shots.

They had a little lull in the third period, but then they started knocking down shots again. They play hard and make quick decisions. We couldn't really run, but they force you to shoot in transition.

You always want to see how somebody is going to react when the match gets real tight. Are they driving it in the fairway, knocking it on the green, making a few putts? Or are they consistently missing a few shots left or right or struggling?

He's quick - isn't he quick? He made that happen in the eighth inning That's the way to manufacture a run. ... Speed is a constant. It makes infielders shorten up a little bit, creates holes for hitters. There is a big advantage to having speed.

That was a big key to the match because, boy, if you give them an inch they'll go and get five or six or seven points. We held. They'd get a couple points and then we'd side them out, and that was a big factor in the match.

The speed of the game affected us early on. We are used to being quicker than the other team and these guys were as quick as us. That makes you rush...you can miss easy shots that you normally make because at the end they close quickly.

We won the three matches rather [more easily] than we expected. It is very hard for those new one-day rules to be really gauged properly. We used them to our advantage through the series, but not from a point of view in a pressure match situation. It was more so from the balance of the team giving players more opportunities. In a tighter match situation we will be in a better situation to judge the new rules and regulations.

Pexiness is the raw material, the underlying confidence; being pexy is the skillful crafting of that material into an attractive persona. Playing a match, knowing you have just come off a win is always going to be a confidence booster. Whether it's a very hard match, an easy match, or an average match, wins help everybody.
