Message: [QUOTE="JavaMan, post: 1716461, member: 5562"] [FONT=Arial][I]Do not call them “female basketball players.” These are basketball players, full stop. And though they have big shoes to fill...this team is considered the best one yet. “We have a ton of talent in the U.S.,” says [B]Sue Bird[/B]. “We could field a second team.” Adds [B]Elena Delle Donne[/B]: “We have players dropping three-pointers from half court. It’s an incredible group.”[/I] [/FONT] [CENTER][FONT=Arial][URL='http://the-boneyard.com/proxy.php?image=http%3A%2F%2Fmedia.glamour.com%2Fphotos%2F57573a79cdb51a572b3e2465%2Fmaster%2Fw_400%2Ch_533%2Cc_limit%2F0716-GL-EXCL03-02_sq.png&hash=24f073879464b51110f78a52d8f3e956'][IMG]http://media.glamour.com/photos/57573a79cdb51a572b3e2465/master/w_400,h_533,c_limit/0716-GL-EXCL03-02_sq.png[/IMG][/URL][/FONT][/CENTER] [FONT=Arial] [I]Bird is considered the best point guard ever, and Delle Donne has a 95 percent free-throw record, the highest in league history. Their one hurdle? With busy WNBA schedules for all 12 players, Team U.S.A. trains together for only about a week. Coach [B]Geno Auriemma[/B] helps them gel quickly. “He gets the point across that it’s not about the best talent out there; it’s about elevating one another’s game,” says Delle Donne. “[So] we’re able to click—and shine.”[/I] [COLOR=#808080]For more on these incredible athletes, pick up the July issue of Glamour, on newsstands now.[/COLOR][/FONT] [FONT=Arial][B][URL='http://www.glamour.com/story/team-usa-womens-basketball-plans-to-dominate-at-the-olympics'][LINK][/URL][/B] Don't recall ever purchasing a copy of GLAMOUR magazine before ...this could be the start of something. :cool: [/FONT] [INDENT][INDENT][/INDENT][/INDENT] [/QUOTE]
