    I was coming to say the same thing.
    As far as I am concerned.. . she invented the d*mn thing!

    Kim Perot
    The Triple Doubles
    Cynthia Cooper
    Tina Thompson
    Sheryl Swoops
    Janeth Arcain - She was like Cynthia Cooper lite - went to the bench when Swoops came the second year
    Wanda Guyton

    Cooper was so far ahead of everyone else playing in those early years.

    I pretty much lost interest in the WNBA after she retired.

    I lost interest in the WNBA once the Comets left town.

    It was a run like no other. I loved that team. Single elimination that first year and only 2 of 3 games for the 3 subsequent Championships. You didn't have the benefit of getting past a couple bad games back then and still have a chance to win. That's what made that 4-peat so incredible. Houston had the best team and coach in the world in women's basketball. Those were exciting times.

    Personally, I chuckled. Sounds like locker room talk.
