Sue Bird, Skylar Diggins, and EDD interviewed by SI

[triaddukefan]

Maybe it's just me, but I just can't look at Skylar Diggins' face and not want to say things that will get me scolded by the moderators.

Me too ....... but it's likely different things that I would be saying

I will admit watched the video on mute........ so i have no idea what arrogant things that Ms Diggins might have said.

With regards to the shoes, "Kobes" are a line of Nike shoe. The joke was that Diggins hopes the "Kobes" make her play like Kobe.

I guess it's kind of gauche to cite your own stats, but the tag line for the video is "WNBA superstars Sue Bird, Skylar Diggins and Elena Delle Donne discuss what traits help separate their games from the rest of the league." It's hard to be humble when the question is basically "What makes you so great?"

Well, tag lines notwithstanding, the discussion did not invite stats chest beating. Frankly, it was a boring interview with a dreadful host that WNBA stars regularly have to suffer through. So Sue, tired and close to the end, and DD with physical woes ( perpetual Lymes disease) and Skylar (home to flog hair products??) are stuck with this lame interview. So somebody juices the tag line and it is junk. We follow a niche sport because it reminds us of when men played real basketball or for some other reason. Still, it is embarrassing to see stars, superbly gifted players, sitting there doing that!

Even so, some people who are accustomed to talking to the media have a knack for coming off a little more humble. But, to be (un)fair, in the unlikely event SD ever develops this knack, I suspect it will be too late to make me dislike her any less.

You need to compare it with Sue and EDD's being humble.....it is a big deal, but is it bigger than being in the WNBA finals, winning it? and winning NCAA championships? Winning world championships?

Seems like you guys a really really really reaching , EDD said I'm 6'5 with guard skills, Diggins said I lead the wnba in FTs sounds the same to me

Elena is argueably the best payer in the league right now (barring the Lymes setbacks). She willed the Sky into the WNBA Championship series (even though she was a shadow of herself when healthy).

You mean humble like Skylar "I led the league in FT attempts and FTs made" Diggins?

What else is she going to say? She's stuck on a bad team out in the middle of nowhere. lol
