commitment leadership trade veteran
We don't have a lot of trade value. But my commitment is still getting that veteran leadership piece.
green half knew lauren second sure
We relied too much on Lauren in the first half. We made sure (Betty) knew she had the green light. Her second half was the difference.
benefits coached damage few four next opens tina usa value
Tina's value is huge. As long as I've coached USA Basketball, I don't think we've had a four who drills the 3 as consistently as Tina does. Because she can do damage from the outside, she opens everything up for us offensively. Lisa really benefits from that. And she'll benefit even more in the next few games.
change guarantee herself position
We were all thinking, it's her putback. (Dawn) is a winner. She's the one who made the mistake, so you can guarantee she's going to get herself back in position to change the game.
expecting game good home last regular
You want momentum. It is our last home game of the regular season, and we're expecting a good crowd.
composure free lose point saw throw
The most important things was the free throw line, no question. The other thing was, down the stretch, I saw us lose our composure much more than I would have thought at this point of the season.
doubt dragging worked
I was dragging my feet. There was never a doubt that it wasn't going to get worked out. I'm happy. Very, very happy.
coming lose won
I said right after we won the championship that I thought we could lose at least one starter. But I had no idea they were coming after our bench.
focused game huge played team
I think it is huge that this team played that way down the stretch. At the end of the game we have to be focused and be able to execute.
experience feeling good last record says year
I think internally we're all feeling really good about it. To know that we accomplished the same record as last year with the experience we had, it says a whole lot about those 11 players.
asset bring city commitment franchise lauren proven renewed since storm thrilled uniform work
Lauren has been a cornerstone of our franchise since the day she got here and we're thrilled to keep her in a Storm uniform for years to come. She's a proven All-Star and her renewed commitment to this organization will be a big asset as we work to bring another championship to the city of Seattle.
add compete field good marvelous obviously parker players september team veteran younger
Parker obviously had a marvelous tournament, and we got good contributions from the other ones as well. We're in good shape; you add our veteran players with our younger players, and we'll field a good team in September that will really compete hard.
I always play better when I'm in pain.
cake defensive effort great icing matters mean played win
The only thing that matters tonight, and I mean this sincerely, is that we just played a great defensive effort for 40 minutes. It's a great win for that reason. The icing on the cake is 100.
