    I am not a Lady Vol, in fact, i have never been anywhere near Tennessee, but somehow i just knew that Candace was going 2B very special & she never disappointed! After which i watched her in LA, Chicago, & sadly also, when she helped the Aces knock out my beloved Seattle Storm! You helped popularize the W - Candace & will always hold a special place in my heart! Happy, HAPPY - Trails!

    I remember when they talked about her in college. They always said, she can do it all. She really could. She revolutionized the game for bigs and changed the way it was played. Kamilla, Cameron, and Angel are the next generation of the mobile bigs.

    He mentioned Sylvia Fowles, Maya Moore, and Sue Bird. All three of those women were great players. Crazy thing is Candace has the skill of all three. She is Fowles, Moore, and Bird all wrapped in one. She was the most versatile player ever. She truly was 1 of 1. Job well done Candace. Enjoy life.

I don’t care who is playing it as long as they’re being true to the sport. I was 15 when the wnba debuted, I remember all those comets championships. Women’s basketball deserves respect.

The only WNBA player to ever become Rookie of the year and MVP in the same year. A class act on and off the court. I can't think of any other player who can or could play all 5 positions and still dominate the game. Congratulations CP3. I'll miss you and your style!
