happened number situation teams work
It happened to work out that way. But it was competitive, and there were any number of teams that could have won. It's very much the same situation this season.
defensive kept lose proud refuses team
It had to be one of our defensive efforts. You're always proud of a team that just refuses to lose ... we just kept pecking away.
double finding force kicking open team
Tiffany's competitive and she's relentless. Sometimes she'll try to force some things in double team when we'd be better off kicking it out and finding the open person.
connection kept looked lose proud refuses team totally
I'm always proud of a team that refuses to lose. There were times we looked like we would totally lose connection to Missouri, but we kept pecking away.
campus crucial forward game leadership nina played question senior since situations step stepped team
This team is Nina?s team, there?s no question about that. It?s always been the senior leadership that has to step forward and Nina has played every game since she stepped on this campus and she?s been in a lot of crucial situations ? and she?s the only one.
heels improving perfect quickly team
We're improving, but I don't know if we're improving quickly enough. This team has been on its heels for some time. We've been in a perfect storm.
adversity connected final intangible losing missing stay straw team understood
We've had a lot of adversity, and I think losing Tiffany was pretty much the final straw tonight. The one intangible that we've been missing with this team is they haven't understood how to stay connected with adversity.
both connected connection ends figured impetus likes team
Right now, it's about connection and chemistry, because this team really likes each other, but they haven't figured out how to get connected on the court. They are all trying, but you have to have impetus on both ends of the floor.
coaching difficult knows needs ride team
Coaching is a roller-coaster ride sometimes for all of us. Yes, this has been a difficult year, but this team knows what it needs to do.
floor happen knowing point projected team
We have too many injuries, and we didn't have any way of knowing this was going to happen to us. The team we have on the floor right now is not the team we projected having at this point in the season.
asking closer looking people team time today
I'm looking at where this team has been and what we're asking people to do, and I think we're a lot closer today than we've been at any time this season.
floor projected schedule team wins
I could have scheduled more wins for this team, but that's not what this team needed. This is not the team we projected to have on the floor when we started this year. When we put the schedule together, we didn't know who was not going to be available.
america guard hard knock shots team until wait
I don't think there's another team in America that is as hard to guard as they are. They wait until you make a mistake, then they knock down shots better than any team I've played.
effort except good low mind point team today
It wasn't the kind of effort we expect. It wasn't the kind of effort that's going to be anything except a loss. It's disappointing, because this team is good enough, but in my mind they have underachieved. Today was probably the low point of that.
