Post game presser

I don't see any quotes - what was Ollie's explanation for not giving the foul?

I'm guessing it's because he had no clue he had a foul to give. Actually, I'm HOPING it's because he didn't know he had a foul to give, because if he did, that would be frighteningly bad.

“I have so much respect for Fran, he had his guys ready. Both teams didn’t shoot the ball well, particularly us going 4-20. No fast break points, if you do that it’s a recipe for disaster. Brown made a hell of a play down the stretch to get that bucket. We just got to go back to work, we got a day off, hopefully those guys look themselves in the mirror, I know I will and we’ll bounce back like champions.”



On the loose balls and rebounds they couldn’t get to:



“Fifty-fifty balls definitely disappoint especially in a game like this. Our fans are so wonderful and they show us so much support and we have to get fifty-fifty balls. It was definitely disappointing but at the same time we got to learn from this. Not shoot well and some of our best players don’t show up it’s just gonna be hard for us to win. We have to do the dirty things, we call those touches and getting offensive rebounds.”

 

[Chelo]

Same crap out of his mouth after every loss.

 

[Stainmaster]

Our fans are so wonderful and they show us so much support

I think this disproves the hypothesis that the coaches read the BY once and for all.

For those who think KO doesn't get fiery he did have some tough words in the presser for DHam:

KO: I didn't see no energy (out of Hamilton). I don't know what it was but I didn't see no energy till the end of the game.

 

[mauconnfan]

The fans basically sucked pond water. Awful job there tonight, pitiful.

If it was a conscious decision not to foul, then I gave to conclude that KO is not the coach I thought he was. You HAVE to make the opposing team inbound the ball with less than 10 seconds left. There is no justification for not fouling. None.

Then put his on the bench!!!!!


And can we occasionally send a couple f'in guys in the lane for a f'in offensive rebounded instead of conceding the rebound please.

Bold strategy from the coach to call out his best player when he doesn't run an offense.

I know its tough for guys like you and I who are actually at the game cheering!

 

[BLUEDOGHOUSE]

I think Ollie said tomorrow was a day off right? Well deserved!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm not there and I didn't say you now did I BDH? Like it or not it was dead. No matter if I'm there, can make it or not, there should be more noise period. I was never quiet at a game and I'm still not when I do get a chance.

Call it what you want because I was watching TV but it was dreadful, asleep.

My bad... I just assumed you were there. As it turned out you were the one with the brains to stay home! lol

 

[TRest]

Bottom line: the Horde lacked the balls or knowledge to ask about it. big surprise.

 

[BLUEDOGHOUSE]

Miller on lack of energy..."I don't know what it was but I know it can't happen again". Now that is great leadership! Lets go!!!!!!!! LOL

Ollie on DHAM..."I didn't see NO energy" ....We are in good hands people!

This is extraordinarily basic basketball,no way the coaching staff gets a free pass on this.

 

[Fishy]

He wasn't asked about the foul at the press conference - looks like he took his time getting to the post-game and outlasted the deadline guys.

Bingo!! None.......anyone who has ever played basketball knows this. Scary that this was missed....downright scary.

WTF? That's not true at all.

 

[mauconnfan]

WTF? That's not trus at all.

Yeah it is I can hear ya know. There wasn't any movement or noise unless they made a run, never any proactive noise. Watching the people within sight, where they can be heard the most, very few were even getting up when things were happening and small runs were made. I do realize the team offered little help in that area (how many runs can you have scoring 53) but still it was dead.

 

[mauconnfan]

Not brains, had tickets for this one actually but started the year with a cold of flu, working from home. Not that I could have helped.

I'm not saying it was G'town '90, but there was several instances of proactive noise in the 2nd half. And the last few minutes, the crowd was doing their job.

Ok not fair coming from a couch potato. Again the team did little to assist too.

I just woke up and feel like hell, feel even worse after reading Ollie's quotes.
