talent
They have the most talent in the league.
missed series shot three
She missed a three-point shot, went right back and shot another three-point shot. I think she shot three in one series and made one of them. She's got to shoot, and when she's open, she's got to shoot.
defending difficult execute extremely national played
They played like they were the defending national champions. They are difficult to defend and they execute extremely well.
defending gave national quicker
They were just quicker at every position. And that gave us trouble. They were the better team. They showed why they are the defending national champions.
defended half played second
I thought the second half we played harder. We executed a little better and we defended a little better.
cuts definitely hard motion plays running time
I like triangle, but we have a hard time even running set plays with this team, so motion is definitely the better option. Even if everyone doesn't find the right spot, they're always making cuts and moving. If they move, they score.
calm difficult errors hyper julie loves tendency trying
Julie just loves basketball, and I'm trying to get her to calm her down. She has a tendency to get a little hyper and when she does that she makes some errors in her decisions. When she's relaxed, she's difficult to defend.
highly risk rush unlikely
I think it's highly unlikely she'll play. We don't want to rush her back and risk aggravating the injury.
confident freshman hard moments time work
I feel confident every time I put her in there that she's going to work hard and won't back down from anyone. She has some freshman moments from time to time, but I really don't feel like there's any drop-off when I put her in the game.
carrying disturbed game mental mentally saw tough
This was a tough game for us. I saw so many things I didn't like. They weren't carrying out some things and then the mental part of it I was really disturbed with. I thought we would be mentally prepared.
capable great stage
This was a great stage for Dionne to show what she is capable of doing.
execute fought hard
We just didn't execute on offense. We had an opportunity, and we fought really hard for that opportunity, but we didn't do enough.
defeating hung played players seeing surprised texas
The players have surprised me, too. Defeating Texas was surprising, seeing all their talent, and we played so well. We've hung in there and showed heart. That's made me happy.
knew nobody states top united
We had one of the top recruits in the United States and nobody even knew she was here.
