00:00anyone running the floor and having a high motor, like that broke them down a little bit.
00:04I said in there, we called, we were small for a minute.
00:08I think we had Kiki at the five, Betts was out, so I was going small
00:12to see if we could get a three or something. I called a play for Avery and then they checked Betts back
00:16in and I was like, okay, let's run Avery's play and then get C in. And she hits
00:20that three off of a design play and it took her right out and said, I gotta get C in. And that's how
00:24you win basketball games when everyone just knows what is needed of them.
00:28It was an incredibly important bucket. I think it gave us the lead. The execution
00:32was great. We got her on what we call a wiper screen
00:36and she knocked it down. You don't win without everybody doing what they have to do
00:40and Kennedy Smith's defense was unbelievable. I thought,
00:44Kaylee, heck, we'll get TV. I mean, I could go through the list. It doesn't happen
00:48without everyone, even though the numbers today are skewed where
00:52Juju and Kiki are the only one double figures. And then another day,
00:56we can score 86 points when our leading scorers don't have their best day.
01:00That's what we're going to have to do and get everyone in as good a place as possible
01:04and have a belief in one another that it takes what it takes.
