You can't read the Boneyard, it'll get you down - too many fair weather fans are not in the team's corner. Hami Diallo ain't showing up. But the team can build its character and perform.
And that's what I love to watch, and why I'm a UConn fan! Thanks KO for carrying on the JC tradition of developing character, players, and teams.
Added Ollie: “You can’t read all the stuff on social media, that will get you down. You’ve really got to focus on things you can control and the people that are gonna be in your corner when things are down. Those are the real people that are gonna be with you.
“Chris Paul ain’t showing up, James Harden isn’t showing up. It’s the same players. They started moving the basketball. This is what we’ve been preaching. And we got some shots to go in. You can’t be selfish. You can’t say, ‘Oh, we’re having a bad season, I’m just gonna get my numbers.’ We’ve got to play as a team. This is not a bad season, it’s a character-building season. We’ve got to keep performing.”
