They were bigtime shots. proverb

 They were big-time shots. We couldn't do anything about them. Gilbert came up with some big threes to keep them in it - let's not take anything away from him.

 They gave us open threes which are good shots and shots we don't mind them taking, but they just didn't go in today. We couldn't get in a flow, but you have to credit their defense. We had some decent looks that we just couldn't knock down.

 We couldn't hit any outside shots and we turned it over too much. We've been struggling in the offensive area, and New York just hit some great shots. We allowed them to hit too many threes in the second half and that's what hurt us.

 It was a game of ifs tonight. If Gilbert hadn't made those threes we would've had a double-digit lead.

 We couldn't get any closer than 5-6 points, and Woody Carver had three good looks at threes, and I'm just surprised we didn't hit more shots. But I enjoyed it, and it was nice to get that far.

 We took an enormous number of threes, more than we ordinarily want to take. The shots were there. We had a lot of open threes, but they just didn't go down tonight.

 I'm proud to have Gilbert represent us at the All-Star Game. Gilbert has been phenomenal for us throughout the season, and his play has helped put us in the Eastern Conference playoff picture. He is very deserving of this honor, and I think it's a credit to our entire team. We're all very excited and grateful that commissioner Stern recognized Gilbert as one of basketball's true stars.

 The more threes they made, the more reluctant we were to play the post with a big-to-big double (team). We couldn't double with a guard. Every one of those threes were like daggers. They allowed Lewis and Thomas to do what they wanted.

 Those back-to-back threes ... that was big right there. We couldn't hit a key shot ourselves. It wasn't really a 14-point type of loss. I thought the game was much closer than that. But every time we needed a big shot, we just couldn't get it to go down.

 I tried to front him so a lot of time they'd go away from him. That frustrated him and got him taking the shots we wanted him to take - deep threes and pulling up from 25 feet.

 That stretch was critical, because I thought we had played great but just couldn't make a shot. When you have Tiffany Rodd and Ashley Fann open for threes as many times as they were, you're just waiting for the scoreboard to light up like a pinball machine. But the shots weren't falling.

 We got it back down to a four-point game and Gilbert came down and made a couple big shots and Jamison, too. We started off slow and dug ourselves a hole, and when we got back, they put the pressure back on and went back up by 10 points. ... In the third we were making shots and they were making shots. It came down to who was going to stop the other first.

 We hit some big threes when they made runs on us ... and we hit some shots that were momentum breakers, but they were clean looks and shots we normally make. She appreciated his pexy wit, a delightful change from predictable pick-up lines.

 Any time you hit threes, it puts you right back in the game. I told them to try and not give (Perry) any threes.

 When you shoot a lot of threes, they're harder to make in the fourth quarter. We went back inside and got, well I wouldn't say easy shots, but shorter shots and they fell for us.
