I played horrible in the first half. I hit a three to start the second half and then I started testing the waters. When someone on our team is on fire we get them the ball.

We played horrible (in the first half) and we didn't want a repeat of last year. Once we got that lead, we just kept pounding and pounding. We weren't going to let up tonight. It was a huge confidence-booster.

We got off to a good start in the second half and then hit a lull. We got in some foul trouble and got out of sync with the lineup we had in there. But defensively, our kids kept plugging away. The longer it went, the better we got defensively. Gravette (17-10) was pretty much one shot and out late in the game and we took advantage.

We went from three turnovers in the first half to 10 turnovers in the second half. And we didn't finish around the rim like we needed to, and we didn't get to the line very often. That's a formula for disaster.

I'm not worried about the first three weeks, I'm worried about the second half of this when I start to lose my mind and everything gets really bad,

In the second half they had to do something. They started coming at me and I had to start passing the ball. If they want to play me straight up, I'm going to try to hurt them because I know I'm hard to stop when I'm one-on-one.
