We had this game in our hands, ... We could have been a half a game behind New York and that game puts us 2 1/2 back. |
We have to win our games at home with five of those last seven games on the road, ... We have to beat Indiana and Connecticut in these next two games. |
We have to win these games at home, ... This is a very important homestand. We need to take the challenge head on. Five of our next six games are at home, and we have already dropped this one. Then we finish with five of seven on the road. It is essential that we get these games at home and that starts with San Antonio. |
We're just carrying out our assignments better, ... Our weak-side defense is better, and we're rebounding better. |
We're not dead yet, ... The fat lady hasn't sung yet. She was spraying her throat there for a while but she didn't sing. We still have a chance. |
We've been through a tough situation with these road games against very good teams, but here we are, tied up coming into the final week, ... It should be an exciting last week for the fans and I know our players are looking forward to it. |
We've had talks, ... I know that I would like to come back, especially after how close we came to making the playoffs this season. |
When people catch up by a three-point play at the end, you can go right in the tank and be completely demoralized, ... I'm very pleased we were mentally tough enough after we blew the game. |
Yes, there are some teams struggling, but the league will be OK as long as David Stern still believes in it, ... The play is much better than it was earlier. We're like the NBA was 20, 25 years ago. There is a foundation, and we need to build on it. |
You take Smith, who is as pure a scorer as you are going to find in the game, and you put her with Swin Cash, Ruth Riley, [Deanna] Nolan and [Cheryl] Ford and then you also have [Plenette] Pierson and [Kara] Braxton -- man, that gives you some serious headaches as an opponent, ... It really puts pressure on us because it now becomes a real race for the playoffs. |
