“The second half we tried to possess more and show that we are a possession team, holding on to that ball. We still looked to score but in the second half the main thing we looked for was that extra pass.”
Kraig Tafoya
“That last possession says a lot about who we are as a team. With 3.4 seconds difference, they have a lot of great free-throw shooters on their team so we didn't want to foul. I just told them, 'we need a stop and if they miss a shot then foul right away.' We did a great job of getting the ball back, and Kevin [Martin] is fast.”
Rick Adelman
“We tried to use 30 to 40 seconds per possession.”
Jason Tarleton
“We've turned into a possession team. That's what good teams do. To be honest, we learned that from Stanford. There's a team that's extremely disciplined and they don't make a lot of mistakes.”
Kathy Olivier
“Whenever we had possession in the second half, we tried to cut into their lead. We did a good job of coming back; that put us into a position to win the game.”
Katie Gearlds
“You give but little when you give of your possessions. It is when you give of yourself that you truly give.”
Kahlil Gibran
“The search for truth is more precious than its possession.”
Albert Einstein
