I think the kids sense that we're trying to build teamwork. You can have fun by doing some games together.

If you tell kids to exercise, they don't see it as fun. They see video games as fun. The idea is to use an activity kids find enjoyable to motivate them to exercise.

I'd hope kids would see that our coaching style is a little different. We're trying to have more fun and not be so worried about mistakes. We're focusing on improvement. Some of the years when you have a legitimate state title expectation, it has been more intense.

Pressure? Well it ain't hitting in forty-four straight games, because I done that and it was fun. The playoffs are pressure.

I went to games as a spectator and I saw the fun that it was. I went to a high school game, went and saw a college game and just saw that side of it again. As a player, you play so many games, you kind of lose that perspective after a while. I think once I saw that side again, it was like this is a fun game, it?s the game of basketball, I get paid to do this, let?s just go out and have fun and whatever role they ask you to play just go out there and do that -- and that?s what I?m trying to do.

We're playing some good teams and the games are close, but no wins. It's not fun that's for sure. This is a good test, a good challenge.
