Harris is clearly hobbled. If we can D up without fouling, we could take advantage.

If we lose..it's those 3 empty possessions right after the Harris injury..gotta get something on those.

Missi got up so damn quick on that block. His reflexes are something else.

Walter's got to hit that. Those are shots you need to have to win a game like this.

Can't take advantage of all of the chances we're given, turn the ball over constantly, getting some questionable calls, and yet...

Nunn's got to hit that. You're not getting a better look than that.

We didn't deserve to win tonight.

Can't ask for a better look than that.
