bounce cut finding game open passes passing quick seeing shows
Each game they are getting better and better passing the ball. Those quick bounce passes to someone who is open when they are double-teamed or finding someone when they cut backdoor shows they are really seeing the floor.
defense hard helped second
Our defense tightened up in the second quarter. We made it hard for them to get what they wanted and that helped us.
almost ball far floor games good job played
We did a good job of getting the ball up the floor and almost everyone that played scored. Everyone got to play and this was one of those games you like as far as that goes.
ball moved needed opened outside shot work worked yesterday
Yesterday we worked on some things that we thought we needed to work on and we did those things better tonight. We moved the ball around well and we shot the ball better from the outside which opened up the inside.
basketball coaching enjoyed fun girls grow happy last regular season three watching
I have enjoyed coaching these girls the last three years. It has been fun watching them grow as basketball players. I am happy for them to be able to end the regular season with a win.
bit hope longer pass pick plays point team
She has been doing that a lot lately. She plays up and harasses the other team's point guard. That makes the other team do something different with their offense. It spreads them out a little bit more and makes a little bit of a longer pass which we hope to pick off.
ball capitalize figured free gets good line points practices rough shooting stretch throw
She is a pretty good free throw shooter. She went through a rough stretch when she wasn't shooting the ball well. But she practices it and she figured out what she was doing wrong. As long as she gets to the line those are free points and you have to get those and capitalize on that.
built changed early finished fought girls half happy helped mentally overall quarter sarah second stayed
Those 3s by Sarah and Brooke were big. We also changed defenses in the second quarter and I think that helped a lot. Overall I was happy that the girls didn't get down mentally when Morrison built the early lead. We stayed with it, fought back and finished the first half strong.
adapted care game games girls goals looking next start taking worried worry
We are worried about our next game only and not looking ahead. The girls wanted to set some goals at the start of the year, but I told them to just worry about our next game. They have adapted to that and our one goal is just taking care of the next game. We are not worried about two games away or three.
eye game girls maybe needed opener tonight tournament win
I told the girls we have to play better than we did tonight in the tournament or we could be in trouble. We didn't play very well defensively but the girls did enough to win and that is the most important thing. Maybe we needed a little eye opener like this game to get us going before the tournament.
attacking girls good maybe quit relax relaxed shots
I told the girls to relax and take good shots once we had a lead. I think maybe we relaxed too much and quit attacking the basket.
ball found girls knocked moved open
For a while we really moved the ball well and found the open person and those girls knocked down the shots.
again coming everybody game girls good helped jump lead nice overall people relax rest sluggish tough wear
It was nice to jump out and get a big lead like we did. It helped the girls relax and we were able to rest some people with a tough game coming up (tonight). I didn't want to wear them out and be sluggish on Thursday. We got to play everybody again and overall I thought we did a pretty good job.
best errors goes good instead night side
The best thing about her is that she is very consistent. You know what she is going to give you every night and if she is inconsistent then she errors on the side of good instead of bad. She doesn't show any emotion, she just goes out and does her job.
