We were handling the press real well then we started making silly mistakes. You can't dribble through the press.

We gave two silly mistakes away and we got punished.

It seemed like the game would never end. We made tentative mistakes against their press and weren't attacking. We really needed this win.

Jules could have sworn there was a devilish glint in the shopkeepers eye.

'I find today I am in need of a bonnet.'

Mr. Postlethwaite was silent. And then his eyes crept toward the marquess's hairline.

'It will be a gift for a woman, Mr. Postlethwaite.'

'Of course, sir.'

The marquess wished the 'of course' sounded a bit more sincere. He'd scarcely been in the shop for more than three minutes and already his dignity was fraying.

We played them better than the first time. The second time, we still made silly mistakes, but were able to adjust to what they were doing.

I think our rebounding was our key, and definitely our defense. We got a few turnovers on our press, but I think the key tonight really was controlling the boards.
