I don't know if it's the salt air, but I told Coach Roy that I had to put sunglasses on because of the diamonds on Roy's championship ring.

(Monday) Roy Williams called, and we talked for 35-40 minutes, maybe longer. He told me, 'I lost the Final Four five times before winning it.' He helped.

We just talked in the locker room that this is great. I congratulated them and asked if this is good enough. And they said, 'No.' They want to do bigger and better things. They're special kids, they have great chemistry and they have fun.

A little sloppy at times, but we knew it was going to be a tough game. We're a team, with the tempo we play, lots of times we play in runs. We felt like we eventually could go on a run and get a pretty good lead.

It was Easter Sunday and I like to call it the second-greatest miracle. I never jumped so high in my life.

Candace Parker is a great player but she's not the entire Tennessee team. They have a lot of great players. I think you just have to have a good game plan and give them some different looks.
