amount ball basketball care efficient fast great job limit mean mistakes offense players poor taking
We have to take care of the ball better. I think in spurts we did a poor job of taking care of the basketball and they weren't even pressuring us. Sometimes we just play so fast that we make mistakes that we don't mean to make. I think we need to limit the amount of times that we do that because they have some great players on offense and they're going to get things done. We have to be just as efficient on offense as they are.
ball excuse people
Many people will use the excuse that we are small, but rebounding is effort. It is how much you want the ball and has nothing to do with how big you are.
ball carried caught confidence half hot knock movement open second tonight
She had that confidence that when she caught it, she was going to knock it in. I think our ball movement in the second half got her a lot of open looks. And tonight she had the hot hand, which pretty much carried us through the second half.
badly ball bodies boxing excuse next obvious people pride
The obvious thing is we have to take more pride in boxing out and getting bodies on people. Many people may use the excuse because we're small, but rebounding is effort. It has nothing to do with your size. It's how badly you want the ball than the next person. That's all it is.
ball confidence focused keeping matter move ourselves people position shot teams ugly
It?s going to be ugly sometimes. We?re not the Connecticut teams of old. Every shot is not going to fall, the ball is not going to move the way people want it to move. It?s just a matter of us keeping the confidence that we can keep ourselves in a position to win. That?s all we?re focused on right now.

Once we got more aggressive on the offensive boards that opened up a lot for us. So we just have to start off with that mindset that we need to keep the ball alive and keep possessions alive in order for us to do well on offense.
ball moved people positions
During that 15-0 run, we moved the ball really well and we got the ball to people in positions where they were comfortable to make plays. That's why we were able to do it.

They were just open. The ball moved really well and that?s usually what happens, you get open shots when you move the ball really well.
ball break chris coach floor focus good guards helps job moving noticed possession running single tried
Our guards did a good job of moving the ball up the floor in transition, and I just tried to focus on running the break every time. I noticed that helps us out a lot when we get out in transition. That?s when we?re at our best, so it?s just something that (assistant coach Chris Dailey) told me to focus on a lot, I tried to do it every single possession down the court.
act ball defensive good half last minutes needed second seven team
I think in the first half and for about 11 minutes in the second half, they pretty much got the ball where they wanted to get it and they scored when they wanted to score. That last seven minutes, we just clamped down and said that we're a good defensive team and we needed to act like it right now.

He is doing a good job of sticking with us no matter what we are going through and no matter if we are playing bizarre and throwing the ball all over the floor. He is there to let us know we are going to win this game.
ball defense offense rebound turn
If you turn the ball over a lot, you want to be able to come down on defense and get a stop, and this is kind of the same thing. If we don't rebound as well, we want to be able to come down on offense and get baskets.
