I watched the highlights on my phone, and it was great to see Sims smiling and congratulating Diggins when she came to the bench after hitting that shot...

I have noticed this in several games. Sims and Diggins actually seem to have bonded quite well, often celebrating a great play by the other.
Diggins has really impressed me in her second year. It is obvious that she put in some hard work to prepare for this season.

I'm not a fan, but she's playing quite well this year. Tulsa is a decent team. L.A. has some question marks.

Yeah, but what did she tweet about it to her adoring followers? That is what I really want to know.

Kristi Tolliver wasn't listed in the LA box score. Does anyone know what's up with her?

I agree Nan - I mean, just what women's basketball DOESN'T need - publicity, shared credit and work ethic.

I'm sure the UConn alums don't do the Twitter thing like good non-divas.

judge not lest ye be judged. For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you...measured unto you? I'll have to check.

Sam Prahalis got to play for a bit. She'll have to get up to speed really fast to help the team out. I'm hoping she does well and stays on the team.
Although I did Tweet the Sparks to give my girl Jennifer Schlott a tryout...

I didn't really pay attention to how she played in college. I did notice that there was a really cute girl playing for ND but that was about it. lol
Was she like this in college?
I think Sims is taking some of the pressure off of Sky.

Oh lord. People, it was a JOKE in reference to all the flack she took when she tweeted while playing at ND. I thought the smiley would have indicated that. It was a grin...not a rolleyes. Had I been serious I would have used the rolleyes. I guess a wink would have been a better smiley.
Tough crowd, tough crowd.

Skyler was easy to dislike while in college - her ND teams owned UCONN for that stretch. Still, never got over the hump to win the big one. Now that she's in the WNBA, I find it much easier to like and appreciate her. She's having a terrific season after a very average rookie year.
For me it's really interesting to see how some of the kids with the best stats in college don't always make it in the pros. Not to hijack the thread, but to me the most interesting story in that vein is Courtney Paris. NPOY in college, seemed to disappear in the pros, and suddenly this year she's averaging a double double at 10 PPG and 11 RPG. this after never averaging more than 5 PPG in any season, and i think she didn't play at all her 2nd year in the pros. I wonder what she is doing differently now?

It's probably down to the coach and his style.
Last year Skylar was trying to make the offense work with Cambage. They'd pass it in and a lot of times Cambage would just get double-teamed and get flustered. If they were lucky she'd kick it out and the team would have to hurry a long shot which they'd miss most of the time.
