Lisa Leslie on UConn and KML Draft Status

[ochoopsfan]

KML is actually going up more than one level to the Wnba. She is going up 2 levels. I would say all other womens pro teams around the world are the next level. The Wnba is one level above those, if not more.
i dont think Leslie is wrong in her statement either. Remember she most likely won't be playing on as an elite team in the Wnba as Uconn is to WCBB. That means results may not come as easy as it does, or seems, at Uconn.
No doubt overweight players have played and can play in the Wnba. However, name me a player that appears to be as out of shape as KML appears to be that "wouldn't " be a better player by losing weight or be more toned.

I thought the sane about Shonni Schimmel but she is doing absolutely fine in the WNBA

The funniest thing about this thread to me... if a Fighting Irish fan came on this board and said, "KML has diminished quickness and is one dimensional, and needs to lose weight like Lisa Leslie said." You guys would be all over them. (Atleast, I would hope so but looking at the responses here maybe not) Weird how that works. There's a way to say things and if you would defend it from a Hall of Famer... you should expect and defend it from an opposing teams fans. I'm pretty shocked at the BY right now.

What is wrong with objectivity, no matter who it comes from?

Look at Stef last year. She had to get used to the speed of the Wnba.
