I don't. I've certainly got no -- morning thing that's why don't I don't want him he'll he'll let me know. -- it all the mis communication we have -- you don't have FaceBook so. But he'll let me know that -- coach I don't feel it when you don't you give me -- look like I'm all right and go and now he knows his body and has great toward an -- to know. What -- body can and can't do so I think it was announced. Big for him came in and and play well enough for a team we needed -- boost and that probably could've done it if he hadn't played tonight. I thought the guys we didn't shoot around what a walk through this morning. Trying to look at trying to get certain matchups late in the game so we can do our job. I thought -- was great club being physical not allowing -- to get to this spot that he can shoot from. I don't derail switching different guys -- sometimes different players. Defend someone differently and they all gave something different I don't want when he would guarding -- but I thought our guys did a good job. Would win a series of screens they used try to get -- -- clean shots nuclear paid attention to details of the report. I'll try to switch out and making sure we are body tight with him on shots we have never clean look at the basket. I'm not so many times. Their bigs are running down the floor with four paint catch the score in transition -- declared out and find dirt. Against Djokovic. Are in transition -- -- -- did a good job would also. I -- -- home. Hopeful but. And now you start with our friend once again you know gave -- to -- and -- -- -- became our support is big time here as always. That's the first -- you got to win their home first. And I think our guys are creating their first step. You gotta win -- games at home now are you gotta figure out a way to get -- games on the -- ten games you -- gotten enrolled this year but we didn't but that's the next step do we have to take care but I thought our guards did the job that was necessary tonight they were physical they got into each -- into the round opponent real well. Martin did a good job with Terry. And a big play in the game tonight you won't know what it was you won't pay attention to it but we're coming down fast break and step curry. Came down. Why don't both real the -- He backed off that three. And -- suicide in the got to post a flail and flop that's a huge growth. Play that I'm trying to get him NEC. And I told him that I sit and that was a huge play for you to pull off that three that you -- transition. That maybe last year you would take him and you pull off -- the big play of the game. Well -- -- a huge fan of him because he's energetic Garrett knew he can rebound when he gets himself into shape he's playing catch up again his conditioning to a level but you've seen flashes. What he can do and now what we wanted to do with him as he moved forward a team hopefully that opportunity. But keep him within thirteen. But out but. Defensively you know becomes an -- place I mean he plays the game all out in when you do that good things -- gonna happen. And I think he did that and that's what I like with where aggression. Because you gotta have a in his game and and you walk off the floor when you go get a history book on that floor you gotta have that that aggression and not thought our guys. The group on the floor and it tonight. But again we can. When Lew is right and income and again you know he's gonna bring you every night again I physical presence deal and rebounding on due to dirty work in middle finger won't show up but I thought his play. Always being hungry and wanting to play and that's all -- -- so I wanna play and sometimes it works out in favor that he can get on the floor and play and tonight was a game that we need it. That type of play from a variety of guys and he was one up about what his effort that he had Doug -- -- second chance opportunities forest. Dogged the schools and a bonus when you got probably indeed -- all posting -- help you win against good teams are Garrett did get. Had a couple pretty tricky plays and that's. Who ball a loose ball long rebound I thought we got to know what's legal took a film and covered doses on defense -- great. We'll see that we may have come out with -- the winning effort. On a 5050 plays. I can't repeat -- since. It wasn't a nice guy you see now split now. I am I do have a level that I don't like let out much and then we lose in the locker room and put him away into the pool in the locker room. The -- didn't -- His two challenges basketball team and these players. To play at a higher level than what did. Being asked to do perhaps. So my job as coaches to challenge him hard to push him there what they -- -- right now. At the end of the year when naked. Laid -- Monta can visit coach Michael has been laid down these Gaskin a laid down in his game and say you know what when -- -- home which we don't care about to win right here. We -- boxes packed to go home but that's not what they're doing I challenged him at halftime and they got themselves going and now that's all he wanted -- so. Some -- bench players. Acie Law communicating and talking in locker room to to the players on the bench. You know Charlie bail you know keeping guys focused. That's -- -- our team is growing you know they -- later I don't coach smart but dump these guys nor cared deep the bottom and wants nothing but the best for them.
