USC Trojans Mental Mistakes, Free Throw Problem

Transcript

00:00I mean, I wouldn't say it was pretty physical for me.

00:04I mean, they played a good game.

00:06I feel like we just made a couple of mental mistakes

00:09in making the free throws.

00:10Physicality-wise, I feel like we matched up very well,

00:13and I feel like we're a more physical team.

00:19Rashaan, just another, you know, matchup

00:21for you against a big, Big Ten, big,

00:24I mean, Ademar is seven inches taller than you.

00:27What is your mentality when you come

00:29into these kind of matchups, you know,

00:31knowing you're going to play big minutes against,

00:33you know, as an undersized center

00:34against some of these guys?

00:36I would say it's all about strategy.

00:38You know, Coach Priestley early on,

00:41you know, not understanding the angles of the game,

00:44understanding where he's going to get the ball

00:47and what angle he's going to try to score on,

00:49where he's going to go to.

00:50So just, you know, pushing him off his square

00:53and attacking him early and not allowing him

00:55to catch it in a comfortable position.

00:59Rashaan, you got a lot of good looks inside

01:02and were able to score.
