00:00 Yeah, I mean, obviously it's good to have success,
00:04 to prove to yourself and show yourselves
00:07 that what you're doing is paying off
00:09 and what you're doing is working to an extent.
00:12 Now we got lots of room to get better.
00:14 When you watch the film, there's room,
00:15 stuff we can show up and improve on,
00:17 on both ends of the floor.
00:18 And no, we won two games, but they're games,
00:23 I guess technically we probably should have won,
00:25 we were favored probably.
00:27 So now going into these next two,
00:30 you're playing a team that's,
00:31 on paper probably meant to beat you.
00:35 So you gotta do a little bit more,
00:37 bring a little bit more,
00:39 execute a little better on both ends of the floor.
00:42 So it's a good test for us these next two games
00:45 to see where we're really at and continue to get better.
00:48 Yeah, I mean, just keeping it simple,
00:51 taking it easy on,
00:53 no, not trying to force anything.
00:57 But turnovers are a weird thing.
01:00 And sometimes you can't over coach them,
01:02 over harp on them.
01:04 Some of them are just gonna happen in the game,
01:06 offensive foul, stuff like that,
01:08 where you're just playing hard and stuff happens.
01:13 But it's the careless ones and the ones where,
01:16 okay, we've turned it over a couple of times.
01:17 Now we need to make sure we don't try anything crazy
01:20 and try not to force too much stuff and keep it simple.
01:24 Set good screens, move the ball and get some good looks.
01:27 So I think for us,
01:28 we still wanna play free and easy
01:33 because that's when we're at our best,
01:34 but making sure that situationally
01:38 we know how the game is flowing
01:39 and try and just keep things simple.
01:43 What?
