It's extremely frustrating. I didn't know how to play No. 44, the younger Daugherty. I thought if I sagged off, she wouldn't shoot, that she'd drive more. They're great players. It was hard to predict what they'd do.

We want to show everybody we belong. Our record doesn't matter. All those losses prepared us for this.

I hate being on the bench in a close game.

I feel like we are stepping out of the Cinderella role. Our record is not really impressive, but .... I guess our record doesn't really count as long as we play as a team and stick together.

إننا نربط أنفسنا - حين نصلي - بالقوة العظمى التي تهيمن على الكون، ونسألها ضارعين أن تمنحنا قبساً منها نستعين به على معاناة الحياة، بل إن الضراعة وحدها كفيلة بأن تزيد قوتنا ونشاطنا، ولن تجد احداً ضرع إلى الله مرة إلا عادت عليه هذه الضراعة بأحسن النتائج.

Turkey has been accommodating and we have an opportunity to play two matches. That is why I have called in three newcomers.
