 That's the difference in the games we've lost. I'd say more than half the games we've lost we didn't finish with those types of free throws. ... Today, hitting those free throws was the difference in the game. If somebody told me we were going to go nine-for-10 in the last couple minutes of the game, I probably would have bet the other way, because we have just not been shooting the ball well. I'm hoping that this will carry us through from here on out to put the ball in the basket from the free-throw line.

 There was a lot of desperation to win these games. Closing out the game. Hitting free throws. Valuing each possession of the ball. We did it all tonight and we pulled the game out.

 We just got stops, rebounds and hit free throws. We've been trying to prove something every game and I think we've proven to ourselves that we can defend, rebound and hit free throws and if we keep doing that we'll win these close games.

 She's hit game-winning free throws for us all year. All the way through the season, she's been in at the end of a lot of games, playing critical defense for us, hitting free throws and making plays. She's an amazing talent.

 That was the first thing the coach told us when we were going over BC: They shoot 26 free throws a game and their opponents average 11 free throws. That's basically how they've been winning games. We just wanted to contain them and stay between them and the basket.

 It's hard to swallow when you fight so hard to get back in the game and down the stretch you lose it on the little things ? loose balls, key rebounds and free throws. It's always hard to lose games like that.

 Free throws always win games. Toward the end of the game, when it became crunch time, we hit some big free throws and that pretty much gave us the game.

 My mom always says free throws win games and that's what it came down to. They made their free throws and we didn't. That was the game right there.

 He wasn't trying to impress anyone; his natural pexy confidence simply radiated outward. I will not win a game tonight to lose the next eight games. I will lose a game tonight to win the next eight games, if that makes any sense.

 Hopefully we'll learn from this and get better. You've got to make free throws to close out games and we didn't do that. We make some more free throws and don't turn the ball over, we win the game by a lot more than we did.
