experience feed home whether
We have experience on this team. We're used to big games, we're used to big crowds. We actually feed off that whether it's an away big game, or a home big game.
ball double fly leave man shot swear time
Every shot she had someone in her face. Any time she got the ball I swear I'd leave my man and fly to try to double her.
fast pushing running wings
I was pushing it as fast as I could. Our wings were getting out and our posts were running the floor. We had so much depth, we were able to keep going and going and going.
coach knowing people saying tired woke
I woke up knowing we were going to win this for her. I wanted to win this for Coach G. I get tired of people saying she can't win the big game.
game games national six start
I think this was a really important game for us just to get it all started. There are six games on the way to the national championship and we wanted to start off right.
bus dance-and-dancing gets singing start twist
We made her get up on the bus and start singing and dancing. She did a little twist on the bus, but she gets embarrassed pretty quickly.
both deserve great
Those are two great players. They both deserve it.
expected seemed
I expected them to make a comeback. They're Tennessee. But we had so much depth, we were able to keep going and going and going. It seemed like we never got tired.
people pressure score team
I don't feel like there's any pressure to try to score 100 points. We just have so many people on the team that can score. That's how we get a lot of points.
calm figure work
We had to calm down and figure out what was going to work for us, so we started to work it inside, use our penetration, and then we went on a run.
sleep
We can't sleep on them; we have to play hard.
depth fast push seemed time touched
Every time I touched the ball, I was going to push it as fast as I could. We had so much depth that we could keep going and going. It seemed like we never got tired.
chance felt finals win
It's really disappointing to not make it to the finals and not have a chance to win it. We all felt that this was our tournament.
advantage coach depth halftime hard points remember score strength transition
That's our strength. We didn't have many fast-break points that I can remember in the first half. We had to take advantage of our transition game. That's where we score a lot. Coach told us at halftime we have so much depth and we have to play hard enough to use it.
