Message: [QUOTE="RockyMTblue2, post: 2854706, member: 250"] Morgan is a word smith too: "There are five former Huskies on the Americans' roster as Tuck and Stewart are joined by Tina Charles, Diana Taurasi, and Sue Bird. Bird is the first American to play in five FIBA World Cup tournaments and already holds the record for most medals with four (three gold, one bronze). Taurasi is taking part in her fourth World Cup. It will be the first time Tuck has teamed with the future Naismith Hall of Fame backcourt. "That means a lot to me," Tuck said. "Being around them, they are such great leaders and they're always making sure that we're doing the right things. They are so focused. They take the pressure off of us and keep things simple. "They have four Olympic gold medals, two or three world championships gold medals. They're just winners. [B]They've lived my dream, over and over and over."[/B] [/QUOTE]
