best certainly doubts far hump teams
We are certainly over the hump as far as having doubts that we are one of the best teams in the country.
again everybody everywhere massive shots target throwing
We had this massive target on our back. Everybody was throwing in shots from everywhere that they'll never make again in their lives.
aggression both felt good goofy knew lost push
We got tentative, we lost our aggressiveness at both ends. We made some goofy turnovers. We knew they would make a push with Wiggins and Smith, but I felt good about our chances.
controlled number
We controlled the boards, therefore, we controlled the game. That was our number one goal.
chance exciting game huge regular season situation tie win
It was a huge game for us. Obviously, we have to win out to have any chance for regular season championship. It would be a really exciting situation if we don't at least tie it would be very exciting for us to get the No. 2 seed.
arizona continued game second
The second game isn't going to be anything like the first game; it never is. Arizona has continued to get better.
blessing giving opportunity terms
There was a blessing in there in terms of giving us one more opportunity to grow.
executing gotten motion offense together
Offensively, we are working too much individually. We've gotten away from working together in our motion offense and executing our two-man game.
good job offense pressured taking took
We did a good job of taking some things away. We took them out of their offense and pressured them. I thought we really started strong.
normally
We had lapses defensively that we don't normally have.
aggressive fuel hit knew shots team took tough
Lisa Willis hit some tough shots and took over a little bit. I knew the more aggressive team was going to win, and I'm disappointed it wasn't us. We'll use it as fuel for the fire.
few foot hoping ups
I was hoping we could really put the foot on the jugular, but we had a few too many let ups on defense.
coming fans tournament
We have a lot more fans coming to the tournament this year.
average confidence lost means played
We played pretty average and we only lost by one. So by no means have we lost a lot of confidence in ourselves.
