cause coming good trying
He just told them, 'Stay all night, that way you'll have a good spot,' cause he was trying to get them to come to the game. He's funny. We did not know that was coming because you never know with Coach.
dish games giving good main maybe move people plays productive shots start sure trying
I'd have some games where I wouldn't do anything productive, like I wouldn't dish the ball, I wouldn't play good defense. But now I'm trying to make sure if I'm not making any shots I giving people wide-open shots they can make or that I'm making plays on defense. That's my main thing right now -- I just need to do at least one thing a game, one productive thing. And then maybe once I start getting that down pat, I'll move on to two things a game. That's my main focus.
everybody playing positive
There was a lot said at halftime. Everybody was like, 'This is unacceptable.' There was nothing positive going on in the first half. We weren't playing as a team.
class four knew
I knew about their class because they were all in the McDonald's game. And they all did so well in the McDonald's game. So I knew about all four of them actually.
felt ignorant perfect step team throats time
It's ignorant to me because when you're up that much you should never let a team come back. I felt like this would be the perfect time to just step on their throats and go up by 20-something and that didn't happen.
felt flowing played
Everything wasn't flowing right because we hadn't played in a long time. It was weird. It felt like I hadn't played in so long. It was different.
basket nobody stop
There?s nobody that can stop her from getting to the basket just because of her abilities and how long she is.
beginning help hurt lose reason saying situation team terrible tried
I've been saying from the beginning that I don't want to be the reason we lose because that would be a terrible feeling. I just tried to put myself in a situation where I could help the team and not hurt the team.
came judge pleased prediction
ACS is very pleased with Judge Stephens' decision. Our prediction came true.
came cried emotional game half knew team
I've never been in anything like this. It was so emotional. Half the team came back and cried just because it was such an emotional game and we knew we were blessed.
ball control hopefully lost open reason reasons sure taking turn whether
I was taking it upon myself to make sure that I didn't turn over the ball and that I had control of the game. Whether it was like getting it to the right person or getting the open shot, I just wanted to make sure that I wasn't going to be the reason we lost and hopefully I was going to be one of the big reasons we won.
year
She's an 89 year old in a 21-year-old's body.
broke chances coming optimistic pray productive talked
She?s just hoping, being optimistic I guess. I talked to her (Monday) night. I just told her I?d pray for her. If she broke it, the chances of her coming back and actually being productive are slim. It?s just terrible.
bad hope lose loss seems stronger time
It seems like every time after a loss we come back strong. That is bad because you don?t want to have to have a loss to come back strong, but I think every time we do lose a game, we come back re-focused and stronger than we were before. I hope this will be like that again.
