ball both changed ends needs offense pull push
She understands when we need to push and when we need to pull back and set up our offense and who needs the ball in which situation. She's changed our look tremendously on both ends of the floor.
ball care decisions focused greater job pressure quite seeing sure taking turning year
Obviously, we've got to do a better job of taking care of the basketball. I'm not quite sure why we're turning the ball over more now. I don't think we're seeing any greater pressure than we're seeing all year long. I just think we're not as focused as we need to be and not making great decisions with the basketball.
ball best crunch gamer player time wants
Monique showed why she's the best player in the ACC and one of, if not the best player in the nation. When it comes crunch time and we need her, she's a gamer and she wants the ball in her hands.
ball court game good great job obviously score slowing walking
This was a really good game for us to play. Obviously we like to score in transition, and Auburn did a great job just walking the ball up the court and slowing down the tempo.
attack ball good guards job knew time
We wanted to attack the baseline. They were in a 2-3 or 3-2. A lot of the time they were in the 3-2 and we knew the baseline was open. We had our shooters go to the baseline, and our guards did a good job skipping the ball to the baseline.
ball blocking changes extremely game gets shots transition
When she's blocking shots, I think it's extremely intimidating to the opponent, and it also changes shots and that gets the transition game going. She gets the ball out quickly.
ball seen turning
It wasn't just one person, it was everybody. Turning the ball over 31 times - I don't think I've ever seen that from this team. So I'm a little disappointed with that.
against ball convert decisions easy good half pay teams turn turning
When you turn the ball over, they're going to make you pay for it. Let me put it that way. Against some teams you can get away with turning the ball over 23 times. Carolina, if you turn it over 23 times, they're probably going to make you pay on at least half of them and convert them into easy shots. We just didn't make good decisions with the basketball.
anxious ball seen shot shots turn
We were a little over anxious to play. We shot the ball well when we got shots off, but to turn it over 31 times, I don't think I've ever seen that from this team. I'm disappointed by that.
ali ball beat both changes ends floor game guards help passing pressure waiting
I think Ali changes the game at both ends of the floor but specifically on defense. It allows our guards to really pressure the ball and get up in the passing lanes, because they know if they get beat they've got Ali back there waiting to help them out.
ball decisions focused great greater pressure quite seeing seen sure turning year
I'm not quite sure why we're turning the ball over more now. We're not seeing any greater pressure than we've seen all year long. I think we're not quite as focused as we need to be, and we're not making great decisions with the basketball.
three
We just see it as three games. It's it's own entity. That's our only focus.
affect great looking lost maryland people record teams thinking
We just lost to two great teams ... but I think people are looking at our record thinking we're on a downslide. Because Maryland is such a great team, I don't think it should affect our seeding.
anxious pleased ready word
We were ready to play from the word 'go'. I was very pleased with our start. I was a little anxious to see how we'd come out and if we'd be a little off our rhythm, and we weren't. We were ready.
