She's a great player. I've played with her and against her in high school, and I knew what we were getting.
She's tall and she's long and I thought if I got it over her it would feel pretty good. I knew when it left my hand it was going in.
It felt pretty good. As soon as it left my hands, I knew it was going in.
We knew we had to play better defense because most of our shots weren't falling. It was a different kind of game for us, but I think we showed why we deserve to win it all.
As soon as it left my hand, I knew it was going in. I knew I was going to take that shot. Big-time players take big-time shots.
In my opinion, big-time players want the ball in big-time situations. I just saw an opening and I saw Alison Bales step up. She's very long and I knew if I got it over her, it felt pretty good. So as soon as it left my hands I knew it was going in.
That's a big girl. I knew if it got over her, it felt pretty good.
I couldn't eat or drink anything all day. I was pretty dehydrated, but I knew this was no time to be sick. My legs still felt pretty wobbly when the game started, but I knew I had to step up my game.
And I even felt her fingertips as I was holding my follow through. So, she did a great job contesting. I just had a lot of confidence. And I knew I wanted to take the big shot so I just took it.
