Thoughts on ND.... How nice is it to get back on track with a win like that?! I thought we played extremely well. We had a well balanced attack and I thought our defense was outstanding! We had different players stepping up when the plays needed to be made...I mean Shereka Wright is almost an automatic every night, but other people stepped up and made plays.
I thought Sharika Webb played outstanding--I have always thought that if she were to get the minutes she would make things happen--I just absolutely love playing with her!!!! We even had a nice alley-oop play, but of course I blew it--I couldn't hit a shot--I have struggled so much lately and I don't know what is going on. I have been working and concentrating on going back to the basics--things just don't make sense to me. I don't feel like I am taking bad shots; some of them are just down and out.
But, WE WON and that's all that matters to me! I would rather score 4 points and win then score 20 and lose. It's frustrating as I go through the game, however, I do know that I can bring a lot of other things to the table. And besides, if anyone knows me, you would know that I would rather give the ball up then shoot it, but Coach Curry seems to see differently on that matter--I always get something said to me when I don't shoot it. But right now, I am just searching to find my shot because I know I can bring more to this team if my shot comes back to me. If and when it does, I know I can be more aggressive offensively, and I don't mean taking more shots, but I know I will be more aggressive just driving and finding the open player--that's my game and I just need to relax out there and HAVE FUN!!!!....
Well off to watch the Sugar Bowl--I don't care who wins, just hope it's a good game!.....
God Bless!
