If we come out and play the first four minutes like that on Saturday, or anytime in the state tournament, it's going to be a much closer game. Against good teams you can't miss easy baskets like that, and our kids know it.

If we play like that at any other point in the tournament, it's going to be a much closer game. Against good teams, you can't miss easy baskets like that.

In this type of game, when it's played like that in the first half - and probably in the district and region - if we forget about a good shooter, it could cost us down the line in a tight ballgame.
