We talked before the game and said we wanted to get the ball to Liz. No one can guard her. And we knew once we got the ball to her, everything else would open up.

We talked about it before the game. If we could come out and shoot the ball well, that's a real key to our success.

No one was more distraught than Ambrose after the game. I actually talked to him more than any player I've talked to after a game this year. He took it personal, like he let the team down. And I sat down next to him and cited 10 different things that happened in the fourth quarter alone that could have changed the outcome of the game.

It's no secret that the Bulls have no one to guard him down low, so he can dominate the game that way. Also, he's in great shape. He's really in playoff mode and we want him to be. We want him to lead this team.

One of the things we talked about is it didn't matter about how we won, we just needed to win.

We played a very explosive ball game. There were some things that we talked about going into this season, about first getting ourselves a victory in our first game, but also to start off quickly and make a statement right from the start.
