We relied too much on Lauren in the first half. We made sure (Betty) knew she had the green light. Her second half was the difference. |
We were all thinking, it's her putback. (Dawn) is a winner. She's the one who made the mistake, so you can guarantee she's going to get herself back in position to change the game. |
We're looking to really get after it [tonight]. Lauren's back is definitely flared up. She was a tough cookie playing through it, but the sooner we can get her some rest the better she will be. Hopefully we can take care of business. |
We're relying on our practice guys, who have competed, to coming in morning and night. |
We've still got to make sure that shin heals; it's like a rehab/recovery process. The reality now for Lauren is that she's never going to be healthy from the knee to ankle. It's: How do we best manage that? It's going to be different for me and her. It's very difficult when it's your star player on a treadmill or bike on the sideline. We've got to adjust. |
You had two MVPs on the court. Between Sheryl at one end and Lauren at the other end, it was fun to watch. And Swoopes, anytime you send two people to guard her as soon as she catches the ball, that tells you how good she was playing. |
You want momentum. It is our last home game of the regular season, and we're expecting a good crowd. |
