impression pat team
I think our team is going to show up. I know that's the pat answer, but we're not content. I didn't get that impression at practice.
offensive played second wore
The second we played much better. I don't know if we wore them down or what, but we were converting on our offensive trips.
great paid people whether win
From my own standpoint, I'm going to go up whether we win or we don't. But, I think this would be a great win for all of the people who had paid their dues.
early establish game inside job miss nice playing shooting spot sure turned wrong
She (Perry) did have a nice free-throw shooting night. Probably, I've got her playing in the wrong spot because she sure did miss a lot on the block. Early on, we really did try to establish inside but it just didn't happen. But we did a nice job defensively, and that turned the game around.
basketball game good player problem shot shots sure taking talented throw unless
She is a very talented basketball player and I don't have a problem with her taking that many shots because in this game it won't go unless you throw it up there, but we just need to make sure when we have a good shot and when we don't.
beat good team until
We think we've got a pretty good team. Until you beat a team like that, and recognition comes, you don't really get the recognition.
air attribute breathing ended focus next normal people prelude reason shooting shots substitute trying
We think that is a prelude to them all going in the next game. We try to focus on shooting percentages, not how many shots we miss, and we ended up shooting 37 percent. The reason people gasp for air is that they are point-blank misses. We can probably attribute that to nerves. We did substitute early, trying to get back in our normal breathing pattern.
darn four games gates jumping notorious points three year
We've had three or four games this year where we've scored 30 or more points in the first quarter. We are notorious for jumping out of the gates pretty darn quick.
closed gave happy quarter run
We were very undisciplined in the first half. I wasn't happy with how we closed the first quarter but that little run gave us some daylight.
athletic basketball bottom line talent team
It's not that we're doing anything different or they're doing anything different. I think we've got pretty athletic kids. The bottom line is that the team with the most talent usually wins, and, right now, I think we can put more basketball talent on the floor.
losing point pressure push putting seemed whenever
It seemed like whenever we got to the point of really putting the pressure on, the pressure of them losing the ballgame, we just couldn't get that push to get over the top.
gym hot took
It just took too much energy. It's so hot in this gym that we just couldn't do that for 32 minutes.
bit defense extend floor four good minutes played pressure tried
We played a little bit better defense (during the run), and they (Nashville) went about four minutes where they couldn't score. We tried to extend the floor and put a little bit more pressure on them. That was just a good ballgame.
ends five free front misses played quit
There was no quit in us. They just played better. They executed better. They made their free throws, and we did not make our free throws. I think five of the misses were front ends (of one-and-one opportunities).
