I watched the first replay and to be fair to Tara, she was not playing kill-the-clock from our last basket at about the 8 minute mark until the end the game.  For the first few minutes we were taking shots--just missing them.  Lacie hoisted up a very quick trey and missed and probably got a talking to--those long rebounds are the stuff of which comebacks are made.  I sensed the kill-the-clock strategy only for the last few minutes.  Coming as it did after a string of missed shots gave a very odd impression.  We just beat our toughest opponent and did not score a basket in the final 8+ minutes of the game.  An odd feeling.  But as Bob says--a win :)

Agreed.  We had good looks, good shots, they just rolled the wrong way.   The late end game was different, with ugly turnovers by Haley and Lacie', including her second bad inbounds throw.
