Tim Tucker Quotations

We used to try to outscore people. This team has bought into playing defense.

I can't remember ever losing a tournament game at Shelby.

I don?t think we have been pressed two or three times all year. When people press us, we tend to score a lot of points. We?re very quick.

It isn't just a bridge project, it's a sewer project. We have known from the outset that it would be awhile before we could work out an agreement with Central San. Whenever there is more than one agency involved, it adds to the complexity of the project.

We played hard and somebody has to lose. Somebody has to go away sad.

Unfortunately, the start of the new prescription drug benefit would be described by many patients and pharmacists as a nightmare.

We were excited with the first half. We made four or five turnovers we felt we shouldn't have made and felt we should have been up six or seven points at the half.

We just kept subbing in fresh bodies and we wore them down. We're a strong team depth-wise. We've got to wear people out.

We improved as the year went on and you can't ask for more than that. We got better every night.

They're used to winning. Plus they understand the tournament trail.

It's nice to get here. I've been here four times in my 25 years and once I'd like to win. I can tell you this, I've never had a team come here and not compete. This team played hard today. They played to the end.

Everyone says this girl is the real deal.

They didn't care. They wanted a low-scoring game. They're such a patient team that they dictate tempo. Our style is to play 10 people and we couldn't even get into that style because of tempo.
