Coach Talk

L-Diggity
Putting together a lineup that won by 26.5 points this past week... we did what we had to do and took care of business.
Who Dat
Look, Who Dat, we've been in this business long enough to know that sometimes points just seem to magically show up out of nowhere. Then sometimes, like in your matchup this week, they don't! Hmmm, okay... maybe asking for an extra 27 points is a little excessive.
