Coach Talk

becky hammon unit
Putting together a starting crew that produced more than 125 points this past week... we took care of business and did what had to be done.
Dyll's Nifty Team
Look, we've been at it long enough to know that sometimes free points just seem to magically appear out of nowhere. And then in some cases, like this week, they don't! Well, hmmm, alright; maybe asking for an extra 11 points is a bit on the excessive side. Keep your chin up, Dyll's Nifty Team!
