Message: [QUOTE="PacoSwede, post: 4897240, member: 120"] i recall that D was universally recognized as the absolute leader of Olympic teams and there was nobody that came close. that was among 12 outstanding ballplayers in each Olympics, some legends themselves (ex. bird, mcCaughtry, augustus, griner, etc.) who knew their way around the game and weren't shrinking violets. that kind of respect and deference sez it all, imho. and it wasn't because diana offered outstanding scoring or any other statistics-based virtue. she always made her team better, and her teammates knew it. the respect given by her peers separates her. i think they have the best perspective.
