catch hurrying rebound shoot square trying
She was really hurrying her shots. She was trying to catch the rebound and shoot in the same motion. We were trying to get her to square up (to the basket) before she shoots.
good inside point shooting
We got inside and we had some pretty good looks, but it got to the point where they wouldn't go up strong. You can't look at the defender, you've got to look at what you're shooting at.
believer giving help
I'm a big believer on giving help and rotating (on defense). We'll see if we're getting it. Sometimes we do and sometimes we don't.
above definitely kids level limits lose maybe played skill stepped tough
It's tough because it limits our rotation. You definitely lose some offense. Fortunately, we've got tough kids that maybe played above their skill level and stepped up.
tough
We just had a lot more energy. It kind of makes you wonder, 'What if we did that (in the first round) on Wednesday?' But that's the tough part about coaching. There's always going to be some doubts.
hard offense open patient score tougher tried trying until work
This was tougher than the score indicates. They're really physical. We had to work on offense to get open shots. We tried to be patient until we popped someone open. They were trying hard to take away Sophie Russell.
second third
We were down in the first quarter, but it was much better in the second and third quarter.They were really key.
lose
Every little thing you can do wrong, we did it. That's how you lose games.
information trying
Once you get the draw, everybody's trying to find out information on who they play.
worry
Now I don't have to worry about that.
ourselves settled third
Once we got ourselves settled at the end of the third quarter, we got back to the way we want to play.
defense hard work
Defense is all about hard work. Defense is something we stress. We want to make them work hard to get their shots.
quicker though
She's quicker even though she's not as big as Gabby (Wade) or Sophie (Russell).
taller teams worried
I'm always a little worried when we play teams that are taller than us.
