Random Thoughts Going Through My Head The Day of a Playoff Game

My mind is so far away from here right now. It is so hard to even think about anything other than the game tonight. I can't even sleep well right now.

It is way too long between Monday and Friday to play a game.

As much as I want to win tonight and am dreaming about coaching in another major upset in the playoffs, I just honestly don't want to be embarrassed tonight.

I'm ready for the season to end - just not yet. Not tonight

I still haven't planned my post game speech if we don't win tonight. I probably won't plan it.

A thought ran through my mind about 30 minutes into practice yesterday - this could be our last practice of the year.

I am not ready to start going to offseason during both 5th and 8th. Right now, I'm doing neither. I'm coaching basketball or preparing for a game

If we defend like crazy tonight, hit our layups, control our turnovers, and hit our free throws, I believe we will win tonight. Its a simple game. Why do our players like so much to screw it up and do things we tell them not to?

I just want one more victory. One More. Not getting greedy. I'm not asking for the regional tournament. Just one more victory. After that, I will ask for just one more.

I'm exhausted and am in much need of a vacation. My class, my family, and everyone will see a better me after I have some time off. But I can wait a few more weeks before I crash.

Is anything else going on in the world right now besides the State Playoffs? I mean for the first time ever, I don't even know who the top 10 are in college basketball and where my Duke Blue Devils are sitting in the ACC. I am focused on only one thing. Is that healthy?

Just one more victory please.
