Craig Pippen Quotes


We will focus on the positives we had tonight and continue to get after it in practice. If the effort is there, the sky is the limit for this team. I've been preaching that from day one. I think they realize now that hard work - in practice and in games - wins basketball games. - Craig Pippen



We need to regroup. It's going to be interesting to see what type of character we have on this team, how were going to bounce back next week. - Craig Pippen



We didn't execute they way we had been preparing to. Basketball is about effort and execution. The effort was there at times, the execution wasn't.

Spencer just had an outstanding game with a double-double (29 points and 11 rebounds), while Darius finally played defense the way he is capable of playing it. He will continue to be challenged to do that. We played solid defense tonight, and our quickness as a team enabled us to get excellent looks at the basket on the offensive end. - Craig Pippen



Our players have stayed positive even though we haven't come up with some wins. There's been some negativity surrounding our program, and the kids haven't listened to it. - Craig Pippen
