“That was the difference in the game. They gave the starters a cushion at the start of the fourth quarter. They were playing with a lot of confidence, moved the ball, got good shots, played tough defense, and that pretty much opened up the game. So the starters got back in and put it away.”
Paul Pierce
“Turnovers were the difference in the game. We didn't create enough on defense and, unfortunately, we gave it up too much.”
Wayne Hicks
“The second quarter was the difference. Our second unit gave us great energy to open the second quarter. When this team gets in sync quick and we're locking down on defense, it creates a lot more opportunities on the other end for us.”
Chucky Atkins
“He's just been on a roll. We gave him a blow to start the fourth quarter and he was chomping at the bit to get back in.”
Mike Dunleavy
“She gave us the spark we needed in the first quarter and helped us pick up our game a little bit.”
Coach Mary Ramsey
“I thought we played good defense and started rebounding a little bit better this game. We gave up a few too many rebounds inside, at times, but it's a good rebounding team.”
Cliff Thompson
“We got off to a very poor start. The first possession of the game we gave them seven chances.”
