um earlier this season when the team was struggling you talked about how they just need to not dig themselves into a hole that they can't get out of when you said that were you talking about playoff standings or morale and how do you feel about your team in relation to that statement now I mean hole whatever I don't really care where we are we're in a hole on the top of mountain I don't care you need to play some defense so until we do that we might as well be digging a hole someone who can provide a defensive spark we've seen is like a Sydney Coulson or you did kind of Praise Kate Martin for that Sydney Coulson didn't get into the game until late in the third quarter and she she know she knocked to Steel like less than a minute and why not St her in earlier or maybe go deeper in your bench when you saw the defensive effort lacking well I'm not going to call anybody out but some of our big studs were in our guarding tonight so wasn't necessarily you know we live with long twos Courtney Williams got hot um it was all the other mistakes um not necessarily by our guards so um this too bad because we got some good production off at Tiff and AC um you know but and it's it's he time a team shoots 60% from the Flor basically 60% from three that's just a losing anecdote and um until we get our defensive identity and we like stick to it we're we're going to continue to struggle but we made so many mistakes and it was my big dogs making mistakes it's just it's hard to overcome uh coach it uh seemed like every time the ball got thrown into Asia about two three are coming at her uh How would how would you try to counteract that uh when you're going to see that you know again come Friday well I mean what they're I they're just leaving people I mean I think they have a special defense called blue and they just don't guard people they just go guard Asia so the way you count of that I mean she got rid of it she had six assists tonight she played the right way um at a certain point if you're going to put two or three people on somebody somebody else has to like make some shots again though throw up the offense the offense was not the problem it was the defense so I mean what would they score 87 that's enough points to win a basketball game but not when you're giving up a 100 and it was basically right from the go we're helping I mean oh my God we're just breaking our own rules constantly it's just undisciplined just undisciplined they know what they're supposed to be doing that they have to go out there and execute is just undisciplined and [Music] um you know so you're trying different lineups all the time [Music] um we go back and see what we can do better but um that's not a team you can give open shots to we were unable to close out to the three-point line and then keep them in front that's it no like we could not keep them for they got downhill drive and kick or they set a screen and we would communicate two people would go with one one would slip I mean it was a mess um you know you talked about finding a defensive identity you know still trying to know build that process going through it is it different things uh every night every game that is or is it something consistent that you guys were looking to on the defensive end thought we did a really good job to Le against LA and then completely different now La has completely different personnel and Minnesota has Shooters everywhere so you can't bring as much help and dig and activity that we were against La where it kind of looked smothering at times um this team is completely different you have to be able to guard some one-on-one people um and you have to be able to know what you're living with which we were okay with long off the dribble twos now Courtney Williams made quite a few of them but it was the other parts it was the 10 assists that was really killer because now she's drawn to now she's getting everybody else involved so not only is she knocking down shots but she's getting wide open ones um for everybody else so those are the ones that really um you know the wide open shots the horse shots those are the ones that drive me crazy Becky obviously we see what the schedule is Right matter of 48 Hours you get a chance at them again to take them on what is the focus uh in the next 48 hours as far as your team understand obviously the travel day but uh just are there some aspects that that you can take a look at before you face them on Friday yeah of course we're going to take a look at it we're going to take a look at it make our adjustments um see if we can't make some things cleaner um for them uh so there's not so much confusion in between I thought we had a pretty clean game plan going into it but it looked like a mess so uh we'll go back to the drawing board and uh see if we can't clean some things up AR rest is probably the main thing except you can leave
