Barbara Turner People Quotations

We knew coming in this season that we had a lot of different people who could score a lot of points. It was just a matter of getting into an offensive rhythm and getting people in positions where they're effective.

During that 15-0 run, we moved the ball really well and we got the ball to people in positions where they were comfortable to make plays. That's why we were able to do it.

She has her mind in the right place right now. She just understands what she needs to do to help our team. She understands that she's going to have to defend the best post player. She's going to have to grit and get rebounds and just throw her body all over the place. I don't know too many people in her position that would be willing to do that.

I think a lot of people questioned what position I would play in this league. With some reason, they should have. But considering the way I played in the combine and how much I showed those guys, I was comfortable and relaxed at the perimeter position. I think that gave them some confidence to give me the opportunity to get picked in the first round.

It's very unfortunate that we weren't able to (win Tuesday). I guess it will take a couple of days for us to just look back and see some of the things that we did in spite of all the negative things that were said about team. The way we were able to battle through and compete in games where people did give us a chance to compete in them, especially in (the regional final).

She?s one of the better post players in the country. I think she?s underrated. I don?t think a lot of people talk about her enough.

Many people may use the excuse that we're small, but rebounding is effort. It has nothing to do with your size. It's how badly you want the ball. From that aspect, that's the only thing we didn't do right.

Many people will use the excuse that we are small, but rebounding is effort. It is how much you want the ball and has nothing to do with how big you are.

The obvious thing is we have to take more pride in boxing out and getting bodies on people. Many people may use the excuse because we're small, but rebounding is effort. It has nothing to do with your size. It's how badly you want the ball than the next person. That's all it is.

It?s going to be ugly sometimes. We?re not the Connecticut teams of old. Every shot is not going to fall, the ball is not going to move the way people want it to move. It?s just a matter of us keeping the confidence that we can keep ourselves in a position to win. That?s all we?re focused on right now.
