We didn't control the paint. Everything they did was because of their dribble penetration and their ability to rebound.

The guys that can take it to the basket on the dribble and also shoot the 3 and have size and athletic ability, they're at Georgetown, not Northern Iowa. We built this team on our ability to shoot the ball. When we're not shooting it, we don't have a lot of other places to turn.
The grass is a big problem for an attack-minded team. It is difficult to dribble with the ball at pace and cross.
People have to understand what my game is. It's not all about numbers. There's a bigger picture here. I don't create off the dribble. I rely on my teammates; my role is to set screens and get rebounds.
One of the things we don't do is that we don't penetrate. We don't have that ability on our team. We have one guy who can get by people on the dribble, and right now his knowledge of basketball is such that he can't find the open player. We just don't put pressure on the defense to make them help. We've allowed teams to play us head-up. If you're not getting the shot in that sweet spot, it's not going to go down easily.
Ryan Brown comes to us out of New Jersey and the PDA soccer club. His speed and work rate will be a great addition. His ability to beat players on the dribble as well as the pass will cause real problems for opponents. He has a genuine desire to make a team better. How can a coach not be excited about that.
He takes good shots, ... He has good range, but he's not a gunner. He's a slasher and he has the ability to create his own shot off the dribble.
We dribble away our life, little by little, in small packages - we don't throw it away all at once.
Chris has the ability to break players down with the dribble or with the pass. He's also a good goal-scorer.
He's really physical, and because of his size he has a great ability to disrupt the dribble. And because of his quickness and ability to recover in a hurry, he can take chances that other players can't take.
I think that everyone should be able to dribble. Everyone should be able to pass. Otherwise, why are you out there?
As a post player, she dominated. Her jumping ability, her post moves were excellent. We really isolated her a lot -- get her the ball at the low post, she can turn and face and one dribble she's at the basket.
He was terrific. We had no answer for him. He broke us down off the dribble. He beat us to rebounds, loose balls. He was very good today.
I think his biggest improvement overall has been the ability to take jump shots off the dribble. He did that tonight. Also defensively he's become more of a communicator and not just a shot blocker.
She was great. She has the ability to dribble like she does and either take the ball to the basket, or when someone is in her way, still find the open person under the basket.
We were on our stuff in the first half. We got some dribble penetration and some kicks to the open shooters. But I think they settled down, went to their people, and we weren't able to answer.
