We didn't hit open shots, we forced things, we had defensive breakdowns. We made some very bad choices at the most crucial times. Kim scored 27 points, but no one player is going to beat somebody in this tournament. We needed everyone tonight, and our kids didn't do the job.

They hit some shots and we had some defensive lapses.

We had some defensive breakdowns.

Megan was more patient in the second half. When she forces shots, it's not good for us. She's a great scorer but we need her to be patient.

Yeah, there were (defensive) breakdowns but there were also variables into having those breakdowns. I think a lot of the mistakes that we made are definitely preventable, but they're a lapse of mental awareness and that happens with fatigue. I'm not trying to make excuses. This is just the reality of the situation.

There were too many breakdowns. We'd give them an open look and they'd knock down the shot.
