Everybody's stepped up. You can't ask for any more than how we've hit these first couple games.

We've been in every game in the first have in the last few games. We've executed, made good shots and played pretty good defense. We tend to take a beating and get worn down against bigger teams, though.

Games are a compromise between intimacy and keeping intimacy away.

We've just got to be ready to go. We have done well in tough games lately and hopefully we can keep that going.

I decided first that I didn't want to stay around IPFW. I wasn't happy there. I wanted to win games since IPFW didn't win very often.
