On tonight's game:“We got hosed at the free throw line. The double standard continues in refereeing the game.”

Shock Guard Deanna Nolan
On turnovers:“Coach addressed us on turnovers. We had 24 for the game. Even so, we were still in the game there at the end. They got some key offensive rebounds and second shots. If we had those possessions, we would have had the chance to score, tie, or take the lead. We play hard enough to win. If we just cut down on our turnovers, we’ll have a better opportunity to win. We play them again Sunday. If we play with intensity, we’ll get the win.”

Fever Coach Brian Winters
On tonight's game:“Detroit has a very good team. They are physical and they are strong. Seems like every game we play with them comes down to the wire. Wish we could have made more free throws at the end.”

Fever Forward Tamika Catchings
On today's win:“It was a great team win. By getting into the bonus early, we were able to hit free throws and that helped us down the stretch. We played good team defense. That helped us because our outside shooting was off , tonight.”

Fever Guard Ebony Hoffman
On tonight's game:“What can I say, another team win. We don’t want to relax and we want to stay hungry.”
