good moments
We had some really good moments out there, but there were still times we sputtered and stalled.
aggressive ball good kids movement played taking threw tried year
We just tried to do the same things we've been doing all year -- be aggressive defensively and offensively, taking the ball to the basket, getting it inside, getting good movement in our offense. Defensively we threw some different things at them. I thought our kids played really hard.
asked bigger chemistry good great locker room special talked
We just talked in the locker room that this is great. I congratulated them and asked if this is good enough. And they said, 'No.' They want to do bigger and better things. They're special kids, they have great chemistry and they have fun.
best country defending defensive excellent good players responsibility season taken
She's taken on the responsibility of defending some of the best players in the country this season and she has done an excellent job. She's an intelligent defensive player and a really good one-on-one defender.
decisions good shoots unusual
She shoots like that all the time. She made good decisions and got good looks. It's not that unusual to tell you the truth.
decision foul good knew leader point score tough
She's our point guard, our leader and a winner. She's tough and I knew she would make a good decision and score or get to the foul line.
against boston college good happy win
We're happy with the win against a very good Boston College team.
doubt far good ivory marion quick
There are differences between being quick and fast. I think there's no doubt Marion was faster, but as far as being quick, I don't know. It's a good comparison. Ivory is quick and she's fast, too. I'd say Marion is faster, but quick? I don't know which one.
gas good knew tempo
We knew they would give us a good game. We just wanted to keep the tempo up. They had a lot of gas left.
eager good motion offensive team watched
We have watched Riverside, and they are a very good motion offensive team. It's a young team that has a lot of eager players, so we know we have to be ready.
compare dean good says somebody time
Dean? Man, you make me feel old. The only time when somebody says dean that I think would make me feel good is if they compare me to Dean Smith, to tell you the truth.
carolina continue enjoy experience good love people saying smile staff time
I love my staff and my team, and we're going to have a good time and continue to play Carolina basketball. A lot of people are saying to me, 'You all look like you're having fun,' and we are. We try to smile and enjoy the experience that we're having.
balance double five good kids looked strength
At times we looked pretty good out there, at times we were a little ragged. We had five kids in double figures, and that balance is a strength of our team.
entire game good great parker plan player tennessee
Candace Parker is a great player but she's not the entire Tennessee team. They have a lot of great players. I think you just have to have a good game plan and give them some different looks.
