Usually (these showdowns) are pretty close. We were able to keep running and running. |
We are looking to get into the No. 1 spot because that would mean we won the game. |
We are looking to get into the No. 1 spot because that would mean we won the game. Neither one of us wants to lose that position. It will be a fight out there, and whoever survives will win the game. |
We felt great at halftime. We felt like we were in good position to win the game if we played like we played in the first half. |
We felt great at halftime. We scored the first basket of the second half (but) we didn't really get the stops that we needed to maintain the lead that we had. They just slowly crept up on us and took the lead. |
We felt like we haven't peaked all year, and there is no better time to reach our full potential. |
We fought and fought and fought. I think we took their best shot without ever being able to deliver ours. |
We fought and took their best shot. We weren't really able to get ours, so we're just happy to get this win. We really fought hard for it. |
We have to be mentally tough. We play against some really aggressive guys [in practice], and I think we do pretty well. We just have to carry that over into games -- big games against good opponents like Carolina. |
We haven't beaten a team that was ranked so high by as many points. Usually, they're pretty close games. I think we just played an excellent all-around game. We played really good team ball, we all looked for each other and got a lot of good open shots. |
We just have to be smart and make smart decisions. We just need to take care of the ball and execute. We've worked all week on what to counter. |
We never went on any big runs and they made a couple of big shots. |
We really needed that. She could be the difference in the big games from last year. |
We took a huge step making it to Boston. We've tried to keep that in the back our minds all season. It's finally here. We can get closer to what we want to do. |
We try not to look too far ahead. But now the game is finally here and we can focus on the big game everyone has been talking about, that we've been looking forward to. |
