Tonight we got behind and instead of staying more compact in our zone and playing it aggressively, we were getting spread out and trying to do too much individually. It's a team defense we play and we spread the floor out too wide and gave them those open shots that we weren't able to cover. That's because the girls couldn't hold back. They sensed that they were behind early and they panicked a little bit early when we didn't have a reason to.

It?s about being consistent and staying steady instead of going up and down and up and down. That?s the sign of a (good) defense. Right now, we?re not showing that consistency level.

Ray was in his zone. I've been on the good side of that and tonight I was on the bad side. He had a special rhythm going and I know many shots he just shot over the top of us.
