Yep David Kelly. Always one day late to the party. His follow up question, "Will you give Wright St a 10pt lead at the start because its unfair they have to play a 1 seed?"

The international media asking several questions was really neat! Koloko is really comfortable at the mic. Win or go home, no pressure haha

My guess is that Tommy is just giving different guys a chance to get comfortable with reporters

Re: Press Conference Links, News (and Discussion)
I get the sense that Tommy knows Adama needs time and encouragement, and wants him to feel his role deserves recognition. Ky and Veesaar get more mentions, it seems, even though they are brand new to the organization, so keeping Adama's confidence up appears to a CTL priority.Alieberman wrote: Wed Nov 23, 2022 11:42 amMy guess is that Tommy is just giving different guys a chance to get comfortable with reporters

Re: Press Conference Links, News (and Discussion)
I really enjoyed the Ernie McCray interview.
Re: Press Conference Links, News (and Discussion)
A lot of discussion about the Israel trip. Tommy refuses to discuss the conference move other than to say that he is excited

Re: Press Conference Links, News (and Discussion)
I actually enjoyed how he talked about changing strategies in the second half because of how Arizona was stopping their high ball screen. Gave a ton of props to Vessar.
Houston stopped using their bigs up top and starting ghosting the high ball screens so their guards could get down hill to either get to the rim or kick it out for open 3’s. It also allowed his bigs to get rebounds or taps.
He also mentioned an emphasis on iso matchups as he recruits guys who can create their own shots since defenses are so good these days and gone are the Pete Carill days of scoring off of actions.
