We're going to get together and talk about things, but I really like being here and I enjoy playing under coach (Billy) Donovan. As far as I'm concerned, I would definitely like to be back here next year.
We're playing our best basketball all year and we're a really tough team. You can't stop us.
We're just going to keep doing what we've been doing all year. It's the same routine. We don't really have to change anything.
With those guys, if we don't block them out, they are going to dunk on our heads. Our goal was to keep them off the glass.
We're here to win it. This is just the first step to get there.
That's the style we play and he's going to have to adjust to that. They're going to have to adjust. The bottom line is we are going to run all night. If he is not in good enough shape, I feel bad for him.
I can use my charms to raise money for a good cause. I just have to show up.
The offense would have been geared toward them if they stayed. Maybe we could have still made this run, but it wouldn't have been the same team.
I don't feel sorry for them at all.
We've just got to adjust. We've seen zone before. It's all about ball movement and attacking through the middle, and I feel like as the game went on, we did a better job doing that.
We're so anxious for the game to get here.
When he's making threes, that's big for us. Teams can't sag off us in the lane.
We know what we can do. We don't wait for one player to do something.
We know what we have. If we can all come back and put it together, we can be a tough team.
