• 0:09
  Speaker 1: Night Final tune.
• 0:10
  Speaker 2: Up for the Huskies, they get a preseason game with
• 0:13
  Speaker 2: Michigan State. I used to be secret stuff, right, secret scrimmages.
• 0:17
  Speaker 2: We'd always have to say what happened, coach, and you
• 0:19
  Speaker 2: wouldn't say anything. Now it's right in front of people.
• 0:22
  Speaker 2: Do you like it better?
• 0:25
  Speaker 3: I think it's more beneficial. It's just the downside of it,
• 0:28
  Speaker 3: is you just, especially with some of these people in here,
• 0:31
  Speaker 3: some of these crazies in here, these crazy fans, is
• 0:34
  Speaker 3: we're just you're setting off alarms sooner, you know, like
• 0:39
  Speaker 3: where there were fan bases, maybe even before Opening Night.
• 0:43
  Speaker 3: You may see your team and exhibitions and be like,
• 0:46
  Speaker 3: all right, we're going to suck this year, you know?
• 0:49
  Speaker 3: Or are this player scaring me? And now you're just
• 0:51
  Speaker 3: creating hysteria before you want it. But the exercises themselves,
• 0:57
  Speaker 3: are they get Opening Night jitters added away? You know,
• 1:02
  Speaker 3: you find out a lot about your team, especially when
• 1:04
  Speaker 3: you're playing you know BC, who's an acc team. Now
• 1:07
  Speaker 3: you get a chance to play Michigan State, you figure
• 1:10
  Speaker 3: out your vulnerabilities way before.
• 1:12
  Speaker 2: MAUI right, we didn't get the solo ball yet. But
• 1:16
  Speaker 2: let's get to him. Third year, lefty sharp shooter over
• 1:20
  Speaker 2: forty percent last year. Defensively, you got to improve. What
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: do you do with a guy when you're trying to
• 1:26
  Speaker 2: get him to improve defensively. It's not something like shoot
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: a thousand shots, you'll get better at that. It's not
• 1:33
  Speaker 2: the same.
• 1:34
  Speaker 3: I think we're just trying to get him to play
• 1:37
  Speaker 3: to his athletic ability. You know, he's his evolution coming
• 1:41
  Speaker 3: in here to the shooter he is. I mean, he
• 1:43
  Speaker 3: may be the best returning shooter in college basketball. I
• 1:46
  Speaker 3: mean his volume and his efficiency as a shooter, and
• 1:50
  Speaker 3: the fact that a lot of its movement not quite
• 1:52
  Speaker 3: Jordan Hawkins, but there's a lot of movement to it
• 1:55
  Speaker 3: like that. So, but he's a freak athlete. He's got
• 1:58
  Speaker 3: crazy length and athleticism and upper body strength. I just
• 2:04
  Speaker 3: think we're right now, it's trying to get him. He's
• 2:07
  Speaker 3: identifying like too much as shooter score and like the
• 2:11
  Speaker 3: guy is a freak, Like he should be in passing lanes,
• 2:14
  Speaker 3: stealing the ball, win milling it, you know, not just
• 2:18
  Speaker 3: using screens to shoot threes, but using screens for lob dunks,
• 2:21
  Speaker 3: like they're just trying to get him to play more athletic,
• 2:25
  Speaker 3: you know. And then like like Cam Spencer, he was
• 2:27
  Speaker 3: not a great on ball defender, you know while he
• 2:30
  Speaker 3: was at Ukon, but he obviously was incredible on offense
• 2:33
  Speaker 3: in every way. And then he also he stole the
• 2:36
  Speaker 3: ball though sometimes, so like we just need solo. He's
• 2:39
  Speaker 3: gonna make some mistakes on defense, but go getting a
• 2:41
  Speaker 3: passing lane and like erase a mistake you just made
• 2:45
  Speaker 3: technically by using your athletic ability making more plays.
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: Does he have to get to the basket more? I
• 2:52
  Speaker 2: mean yeah, I mean obviously he's a good free throw shooter.
• 2:55
  Speaker 3: We'll get above, like stop broad jumping and high jump
• 3:00
  Speaker 3: and use your forty five inch vertical, which he says
• 3:03
  Speaker 3: he has on his Twitter page that Luke mocked him
• 3:08
  Speaker 3: for ye in a team meeting.
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: He brought it up practice. Obviously, college coaches, you were
• 3:18
  Speaker 2: thinking about going to the Lakers where they don't practice,
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: by the way, but college you can work on stuff.
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: So you walk into a practice, I've seen you, you got
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: your notes, you got things you want to do. How
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: do you approach it? I mean, do you say to yourself,
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: we're going to do this today and we're going to
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: make better at that today, or do you just go
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: through your list of things to do and then at
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: the end go, wow, we sucked or we're good today.
• 3:40
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean you're trying to develop habits, you know,
• 3:43
  Speaker 3: like hard habits, habits that aren't fun. You know, like
• 3:47
  Speaker 3: closing out with technique on the perimeter to a three
• 3:50
  Speaker 3: point shooter that could also drive the ball. It's the
• 3:53
  Speaker 3: hardest thing to do in basketball, so like it's almost
• 3:55
  Speaker 3: like being a cornerback corner in the NFL receivers right,
• 4:01
  Speaker 3: like close out to a guy who's got a live
• 4:03
  Speaker 3: dribble who could shoot. So like habits like that, or
• 4:07
  Speaker 3: blockout technique, or you're getting over a screen, Like a
• 4:10
  Speaker 3: lot of what your practice is this time of year
• 4:13
  Speaker 3: is building those habits so that they're embedded and now
• 4:17
  Speaker 3: you start fine tuning execution, or try to simulate multiple
• 4:22
  Speaker 3: defenses that you'll play against, or do drills in practice
• 4:26
  Speaker 3: to make your team tougher, or make sure that they're
• 4:30
  Speaker 3: getting enough skill work so that when you're executing or
• 4:34
  Speaker 3: plays breakdown that they can go in and win one
• 4:37
  Speaker 3: on one battles so and then eventually as we get
• 4:41
  Speaker 3: closer to preparing for opponents, now you've got game plan.
• 4:45
  Speaker 3: You know, you're installing, how you're guarding all the different
• 4:49
  Speaker 3: things that the other team is going to do offensively, defensively, personnel,
• 4:54
  Speaker 3: preparing for special situations, end of game. There's a lot
• 4:58
  Speaker 3: that's going on. Plus you try to get your team
• 5:00
  Speaker 3: enough live reps in practice so that they're fresh for
• 5:03
  Speaker 3: the game, but not too many live reps in practice
• 5:06
  Speaker 3: so that they're drained for the game. And you only
• 5:09
  Speaker 3: know that when you've coached for a long time. I
• 5:12
  Speaker 3: don't look like I coach a long time because I
• 5:14
  Speaker 3: look so young. You do until you take it twenty
• 5:17
  Speaker 3: This would be my twenty fifty years a head coach. Wow, yeah, yeah,
• 5:21
  Speaker 3: twenty five.
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: Oh you're talking about Saint Benedict's too, Yeah, I mean
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: that counts right, Yeah, absolutely, That's when I first saw
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: you in action.
• 5:27
  Speaker 3: I think, coach. One of my top five best teams
• 5:30
  Speaker 3: I ever coached was probably at Saint Benedict's. Tristan Thompson
• 5:33
  Speaker 3: played the three for me. I know that one year
• 5:36
  Speaker 3: we were so tall at Saint Benedic's. You had j R.
• 5:40
