Re: University of Alaska-Anchorage Basketball (CH2K8)

Their guards got all their points and your frontcourt got all yours. By design with each team picking on weaknesses?

Yeah, mostly, and I think they were strictly man to man the entire game, and the guards were rarely if ever open and weren't really doing anything when they were. Fullerton reminded me of my SMC legacy where every WCC team was just turning every game into a jumpshooting competition and it tended not to matter how well I defended any of the shooting. Sometimes I'm tempted to tweak the sliders, because I lead the country in FG % every year, but I also have the worst FG % defense in the country, so it evens out I guess.

Tovarich: Rough start. Down 22-13 after 5 or 6 minutes. Couldn't rebound to save our lives. Couldn't hit a 3 to save our lives. Wilkins was amazing against the press. He was tough and finished down low. He drew fouls. He made a lot of foul shots. Incredible performance from him. The guards struggled again. I'm not sure what's up with them. Hopefully they'll shoot their way out of it in the return game here.

Reporter: What are the challenges of playing the same team twice in a row this week?

Tovarich: We know exactly what they'll do. They'll full court press us after every basket. Hopefully the refs are in the same kind of mood these ones were tonight. They'll play almost exclusively 2-3 zone. We'll perhaps give up on the 3's sooner if we're 1-10 at halftime like tonight. We know we need to rebound better. We know we need to cover their guards better. We know the bench may need to play some extra minutes if the pace gets out of control. It's nothing we didn't learn from playing them for 7 minutes tonight. We'll just see who plays better next game than they did tonight.

Reporter: Will a 3-2 road trip be good enough to get into the tournament?

Tovarich: I think so. We're in a strong position in the RPI. Joey Brackets hasn't put anyone out yet, so we'll see what he says. We were 20 or so spots away with 8 losses last year. Hopefully if we have at worst 5, that'll be good enough.

Reporter: What did you make of Borders struggling against the press compared to Wilkins?

Tovarich: He's probably leaving if I don't talk him into staying, so this wasn't a performance that really motivates me to try to talk him into staying. He often has this issue against the press. PF's are often not a big part of our halfcourt offense. We are in the 4-out so often that sometimes they're away from the basket where they're not much of a threat. So when the perfect scenario for a big game comes along for that position, they should take advantage like Wilkins did.

Tovarich: Ugly game for a while there. We shot a little better as it went on. We certainly went backwards in rebounding. We shot 3's better...eventually, so that took some pressure off other parts of the game for sure. We've got to a lot better next time out. That kind of performance isn't going to beat DePaul.

Reporter: Earlier in the season, I asked if you play up and down to your opponents. Are you sure that isn't true?

Tovarich: We make it look like that because we do just enough to get by. But it's often because we just have to make it harder for ourselves by not rebouding, like today.

Reporter: So what was different today than Monday?

Tovarich: After starting the first 2 minutes without a basket, we picked it up a little, so we didn't dig ourselves another 22-13 hole. They struggled to shoot, so we had a 26-19 lead and they gave up on the press at that point, and didn't bring it back until about 5 minutes to go in the second half, so we were in a half court offense a lot. We started 1-8 on 3's, but we turned that around all of a sudden. The refs didn't call many fouls, so our 24-4 advantage last game was only 11-8. Our rebounding got worse, though just barely. They gave us some boards at the end of the first game on all their 3's. They were mostly hitting them at the end this game.

Reporter: Will this season be a failure if you don't make it to the tournament?

Tovarich: I don't think so. We're way ahead of schedule, but worst case scenario, we finish like 2-3, so 25-6? If that doesn't get in, you question if we're allowed in.
