Coach Talk

Drużyna Boża
Hey, we admire the confidence, Drużyna Boża. It's a bold move to play, not one, but TWO starters with zero points (Damien Harris and Jamaal Williams), while still earning the W! We just ask you to please limit that flashy, show-off type of stuff to the regular season. Do it when the playoffs roll around, and we'll be done.
