Griner in the WNBA and abroad...

[schmendrick]

She may be the current darling of ESPN but against stiffer competition hard to see her getting away with what she did last night.

There will be enforcers.

Cool. So it will escalate! Awesome! Just like the boys in hockey!

Or, coaches could speak privately to BG and Kim if they so profoundly object to her actions.

Or not. Pierson is lauded and reviled for her toughness. Totally depends on if she's on your team or not.

I have been wanting to see a Fowles vs Griner matchup. Who would win that?

Are we talking basketball or a cheeseburger eating contest?

I hope to be there to see that one, as well as a matchup with Charles.

Nneka & Parker

Tina's gotten a lot better but so has Griner..........advantage Tina for the time being, because she has been through the WNBA learning curve. Griner will still be strong at the outset but once she has her first season under her belt, she, too will show substantial improvements over the rookie model.

I'm most looking forward to seeing her battle Cambage!!!!

It not just the centers she will have to deal with. Players like Parker that may be fun to watch.

The WNBA seems to have adopted the practice of making their athletes more mediagenic and thus more marketable, changing their hairstyles and not dissuading the use of makeup.

That should be interesting to monitor as well.
