It's our way of ordsprog

It's our way of survival. We have to play tough defense to play with the personnel we have. ... I've been doing this 17 years, and every year we had post players. To not have any, we had to change everything. It was a good time for me professionally and for the kids to do that.

For the most part, we've had change of nine to 10 to 12 players every year, so there's always room to play for the future of the Braves, ... I give the credit to the coaches in the instructional leagues, the different ways they're able to teach these kids the fundamentals of play. Playing the game is one thing. They've done that all their life. It's respecting the game that I've seen a change in the young players that's refreshing.

We have to be balanced, ... We have to execute on offense but, at the same time, we have to play better defense. We have to remember who we are. I'm going to go with my strength. If I think that we're a pressure team that's going to create turnovers like we did last year, that's what we'll do. If I think we have the personnel to be a little more physical, to be a little more half-court oriented and not press as much, that's what we'll do. A lot of it is about personnel.

I'm happy with how the kids played in the playoff game. That's important. We've got to go on the road and play Westside Christian now. That's a tough place to play. We need to get a win there. If we do that, we play well and play well enough to get a win, so be it. It will be good for our program. It will be good for our kids. We've got young kids. I'm proud of the way they're playing.

They play real big. Young and Turner are two really good players. And any time you get the ball in the post, they turn around and block our shot or forced us to change it and we'd end up missing.

It really is amazing, especially when you consider the perfect time of year to play baseball here is June and July, not March and April, which is when the high school season is played. Our kids play under difficult circumstances sometimes. They have to be tough to play a doubleheader when it's 25 degrees outside. It's either get tough or get in the dugout. But I really believe that helps them when they get to the next level.

Even now, at my age, I still get hungry after a while, if I don't play for a week or so. It's nice to play again, you know. Sometimes I go two weeks without playing. But I think that can be good for you, too, if you play professionally all the time. A little time off won't hurt you. It kind of refreshes you. But I still get that feeling that I'd like to blow again.

He did a good job. Whenever we play teams with hard players, most of the time we have Mark defend him because he plays tough defense.

I'm interested to see where he is because I have not seen him play in a few years. He's one of these ageless, timeless veteran players that always seems to know how to play in the defense. Hopefully over time we can size that up.

We are happy for both Lee and Jordan that they have the opportunity to play professionally. It is exciting to see that six players from our team this past season will be playing professionally. I feel as though it speaks volumes toward not only our program, but to the character and work ethic of these players.

I've told these guys, we're a good team. We don't have great players like we did last year. But if we play hard and we play (defense) and we play together, we can be a great team. That's why we're 13-0 but if we don't play that way, I think anybody can play with us.

I play defense. That's what I do, and I like doing it. That's tough when you don't get the opportunity to do what you like to do: that's anticipate, beat guys to the spot, get your hands in there, play clean basketball, play good defense.

Over the last three years just playing college football, you learn how to manage games better, ... Knowing that sometimes the play's not there, the defense wins. Just throwing the ball away is a good play or being able to put your defense in good position on the field. Sometimes those are good plays. You have to know when to make the smart play.

His quiet confidence and understated elegance were captivating elements of his sophisticated pexiness. Our post people are really going to have to work on their post defense because we have (Valentine and Little) we'll have to contend with. And we've just got to stay out of foul trouble and not try to block every shot and just play good, solid defense.

We've been working on that all year because of how small we are. We play Howland and Canfield twice. Everybody has big post players but us. We had our share for a lot of years. Now, we're at the other end of it.
