It's been helpful to be able to practice. The main thing here is the quickness and speed of the game and how quickly guys make passes. It's on the tape and the guy is gone. That's been the biggest adjustment for me.

If that intensity on the practice court increased, it would make her better, and more than anything, make everyone else better. Sometimes, when she is laid-back, everyone else is like her. I would like that to improve, and her strength to improve. That would help us tremendously.

We didn't have a good practice at all yesterday morning,

It was good to get out here and practice since I couldn't last week and I felt a lot better. Being injured is terrible; I just have to worry about being healthy all through the summer.

We have a good friendship so it allows us to get in the gym together and get good practice in the off-season.

We passed well and served well. In practice we serve 50 times and if you make two mistakes in a row you have to run. Pretty much everything went well.
