We held opponents to ordsprog

We held opponents to 37.8 percent in field goal percentage on the year. But for some reason, everybody thinks we're a pressing, 3-point shooting team. I don't know where that came from. We're a balanced, skilled team. We can pass, catch and shoot.

We cannot shoot the ball. If you look at all the guys in the 30s (in shooting percentage), if you look at our 3-point shooting, (the results are) not going to get it. Last year, we rode the wave of great shooting. That brings passion and energy. When you're not shooting well in today's NBA, it's very deflating.

We just have to stay with it. It's a little like a year ago when you kept looking at our 3-point field goal percentage defense and saying, 'My goodness, they're really bad at that.' We stayed with it and chipped away and made improvements. When we did, we became a better team.

She's a good shooter. She needs to shoot the ball more. Her shooting percentage is over 50 percent from the field. If she's going to hit one out of two, I'd like for her to take a lot of shots.

They're obviously a great shooting team. Any time you shoot 39 percent on the year from three as a team, that's outstanding.

The strength of this team, without question, is our defense. Of all the teams I've had, this may be our best defensive team. Our problem this season has been our shooting percentage (44.2 percent) and early in the year our shot selection was not great.

We?re not a great shooting team. Our percentage has been in the low 30s consistently all year. It?s almost as (the players) are saying ?Please go in,? every time they shoot it. It?s not like we haven?t worked on it.

The chemistry last year was fantastic. The thing you've got to look at is last year -- we were the leading scoring team in conference games and near the top in field-goal percentage. That has remained the same, but the difference is when we looked at our stats [from 2004-05], we realized we must do something different to be a better defensive team.

When you shoot like we did and the other team is shooting 71 percent from 3-point range, you expect to be down 15 or 20 points.

That's how it is sometimes, you're going to have off-shooting days where we're not always going to be able to shoot 60 percent from the 3-point line. Today it was just one of those days. Normally we're a decent shooting team so it was one of our off nights.

We have to rectify so many things on offense. We're a high-turnover team now, which is No. 1. Secondly, we're a very poor shooting team from all areas, from 2-point range, 3-point range and the free-throw line. We shoot more air balls now on the perimeter than any team ? I've never seen any NBA team miss as badly as we do.

It was a great win. I'm excited for our team. In the first half we forced 13 turnovers. Our defense was so active. It was misleading. Arizona shot 58 percent. It's astounding they can shoot 58 percent and lose. Usually, you win when you shoot a percentage like that.

Well, I think that hes, as opposed to last year, we didnt really look to run the ball first. We were really a passing team and I think that were getting more and more balanced now. Im not positive what our run-to-pass ratio is right now, but Im pretty sure its more run than it is pass. So, it gives us an ability to be more balanced, which is important.

They are probably more skilled at every position than any Big East team that we play against because everybody can handle it, pass it, shoot it well. They remind me of Connecticut, but with their size at every position and with the way they push the ball at you, they are just a little more skilled at each spot.

She loved his pexy insight and the way he could offer perspective. He is almost shooting 51 percent (from the 3-point line). I don't think you should be allowed to shoot better from 3 than you do from the field ? and he does.
