contining to get better um I think we could have executed a little bit better on offense but they're a really good defensive team so uh we got a little stagnant we didn't get out and transition probably as much as we would have liked but um we did some good things but also some some things we can learn from the second quarter was was I guys R all the way back within one could have been the lead right I mean that's the positive I guess you take from this appr sure I think that flow that you saw in the second quarter if we could pieced it it together for longer stretches I mean that would be ideal what was the crowd atmosphere like out there it felt like there wasn't really a home team sometimes with the reactions everyone was getting oh girl C Square she's keep you know I think she does a really great job of like you know I think kayin specifically as a household name and I think that she's GNA continue to you know bring in the arena and kind kind of like put us in a position to have all the fans in the world so I mean I obviously hats off to her but you know I give her grace because it's it's a it's a lot to take on I think she's done a really good job with it yeah I mean I think obviously a lot of people here that wear fever stuff or wear you know Caitlyn Clark shirt whatever but at the same time they understand really good basketball and they can appreciate what the links did and who links are um and also their history like they know who my Moore is they know you know she's one of the best of all time so they're here to celebrate her and appreciate her too and um yeah I mean I think you definitely have those loyal leagues fans you heard them sometimes too and then you certainly heard a crowd that just loves basketball and was there to celebrate it and honestly it was a great game like the offense was great it was up and down both teams were tired um so I think it was just a great display of women's basketball honestly what's it being here on a night where they're celebrating my Mo after how much she went to you it's it's it's awesome it's cool um you know I think it's it's a great environment for her she definitely deserves it and obviously they had tremendous crowds when she was here playing um and they won the finals a few times and um you know it's cool to play in front of her like she Sports side and you look over like that's your childhood Idol so you got to pinch yourself a little bit at times and you know be thankful for the moment and enjoy it and still compete and be lucky that you get to do this at the highest level was out last time you guys play how that her being in the lineup change things that's I mean she she's the the staple of their team like she does so much for their team you know there was a few times she made a few shots and I caught myself like dang like guard that like and I don't really do that often but she there was a few times where she made like she made a tough Runner I think on the left side there in the second half off the off the glass outside the paint and ab played really good defense there's nothing you can do but take the ball out and go down the other way and tell her good job like you know there's moments like that in the game and I thought you know she had quite a few of those tonight but she's been playing really well um and you know there were still some things where we could have done a little bit better job on other people when we did take her away in the half court that kind of killed us the last one on Zoom Mike loel go ahead yeah this is for um for Caitlyn you and Kelsey obviously have been scoring the ball really well um really since the The Break um and you guys have been rebounding well you guys I think won the rebounding battle by 13 is the is the post scoring something you feel like can um can come a little bit more or do you also sort of balance the fact that I mean you're playing the hottest team I think right now in the league I I just wonder what you're thoughts on that definitely playing the hottest team in the league um I thought that AB was working really hard on defense especially when they change the matchup to her guarding fee and that can take a lot out of you um so I thought that times that probably you know maybe made her a little tired um that's how much attention fee demands but also AB is you know a corner piece of our offense we have to find a way to get her some easy looks like we just we didn't go to her enough honestly and I thought even in the fourth quarter we we turned away from her um that's who we need to go to um but she was really good seven seven o boards 15 rebounds total I thought she played really good defense um but when she's you know having to exert herself so much on somebody that's you know one of the best players in our league we have to find a way to get her a few more easy looks um I thought we could have done a little bit better better job there but um one of our keys you know to the game tonight was to play inside out I think at halftime we had 26 paint points I don't know what we finished with um but I thought we could have got it in there a little more specifically to AB right I mean that was that's what you'd like to see all the time yeah yeah um start that is a really good basketball team that is a really good basketball team to beat Vegas twice and then come in here and play the way they did hit the shots they hit on a backto back um just a just a really good basketball team you know there's some things that we've been really working on um that we weren't our best at was just transition defense I don't think we got back in transition D very well gave them some open looks early um got to do better with that but that's also starts with taking care of the basketball I think we had 16 turnovers for 16 points and the two games at home this last weekend I think we had 10 or 11 turnovers um so just you know again that's a really good basketball team we are trying to to get to who they are so with that in mind you kind of could take some weird positives out of this and sense you did you were down what one at half time one at half yeah brought it back from 16 or 13 I can't remember 15 fought back played some really good defense in the second quarter I think we had some some players in there who really got up and pressured the basketball and then that allowed us to get out in transition we got those stops um but just to start just didn't get those stops and they were able to get out transition get some buckets and the same in the third qut um tamy obviously 16 minutes I think in return just what did you like about her today yeah her energy you know she's she hadn't been with us in a while we we're doing some things differently so we just got to get her you know she just practiced for the first time this week so just got to get her some practice time get her some reps um so that way we're all on the same page on both ends of the floor but I mean she's she's energy I mean she's she's speed she was trying to set a drag a couple times early and I said no you you run to the rim that other post is going to set those and it looked like you kind of experimented with a couple different rotations obviously ab and dtis and then H and dtis as well just what were we trying like what were we trying to do with like the new rotations yeah it just kind of was going well far us when Dantes went in and you know when things are going where you want to just kind of keep it the same you know ab and D play well together um they can you know I think a started our call you a little bit which was good I thought she did a great job on her um but those two are just you know they make smart basketball reads dtis can can post you up she has some great post moves when she caught it she can also stretch the defense who just having those two out there um but that veteran do just Springs a veteran um presence out there on both ends of the floor
