yep, Taurasi WAS pretty amazing. Now she's entitled. She's damaging her legacy with her arrogance and dismissal comments about Clark. Taurasi was pretty awful in the Olympics. Her friend Chelsea Gray was awful as well. But they both made the team. Go figure. Hashtag rigged.
Cali's finest... You have to bring a bat to the game to stop her. Once she gets to the mid-range area its game over. Also, her 3 is a monster..... 1st ballot Hall Of Famer..... PERIOD!
Perhaps the greatest point guard of her generation. I dont mean among females...I mean PERIOD! She is a female version of magic johnson with more speed, and a better jumper.
I don't give a damn what her momma named her. I call her The Great One... My All Time fav. female player. One of the best ballers of her generation regardless of gender!!!!
I see ppl saying she plays like Kobe and Iverson but it's neither... Look at the flash and the way she shoots and passes, she' plays more like a steph curry... How don't y'all see it?? Lol
Tauschen Since we have already settled on your definition of a "feminist" maybe you can tell me when you intend to take on Amanda Nunes. (Yeah, go ahead and google her mr. girly man sports fan. rotfl.)
lol. I like you, you are funny. You got me there. Not sure what to say to that considering she is a professional MMA fighter. I think it's great that women compete in sports. And yes, some professional women could probably beat non-professional men at the sport they play, no argument here. I guess you're/you are (just for you) one of those women, excuse me, feminists, that thought Rhonda Rousey could beat (no excuse for that one, shame on me) Floyd Mayweather in a boxing match. rotfl.
Tauschen I hate to be a grammar Nazi (sorry, I lied; I do enjoy being one) so it's "you are" and not "your" and it's "beat" and not "be." And when you are done rolling on the floor be sure to wash your Depeche Mode t-shirt. I'm sure that the 9 cats you own shed hair quite badly.
I gotta say I hate all those diana fan pages talking about how diana is the shit when all of them bandwagoners only liked merc for bg then found out it was diana who ran shit yea I can't stand then but woooo can taurasi play basketball she is a winner on all levels
I'm older. I think she's a female Larry Bird. They run the offense threw her, finds the open player, the touch passes, the outside shots, the confidence.
I love me some Diana. I still feel she is one of the best basketball players on planet earth. But comparing their skills sets are different. SHE is a hall of Famer. I love me some diana. Those types of players come around once in a lifetime. Diana reminds me of Kobe. Unstoppable. 🥰
Diana Taurasi has always been my favourite basketball player. She is my idol and I aspire to be like her and join a basketball team in my area. (Flyers Women)
+fathermon There aren't many pros in the game (male or female) as skilled as DT! She can handle the rock, catch and shoot, shoot off the dribble, move without the basketball, has tremendous range on her shot, great vision and precision passing, can post up, run the pick and roll, excellent finisher near the basket, etc.
Bc she’s an all around basketball player. Most of these dudes dunked their way into scholarships without actually working on anything. They get the ball ALL game ever possession. They don’t work on their handle bc everything is a track meet nowadays. Women have to be REALLY good to be successful in college and make it to the pros. 1) they don’t have a lot of teams. 2) the women in the WNBA are the best in the world. so the odds of making it are way harder than the nba if you aren’t a guaranteed first round pick.
I knew she was the best I had ever seen play when she was in College,and yo I saw Nancy Lieberman, Lynette Woodard,The McGee twins,Cheryl Miller,Cheryl Swoopes,Lisa Leslie, Cynthia Cooper,Teresa Edwards,Katie Smith, Chamique Holdsclaw,Tamika Catchings all the early 00s and current women but this broad seemed like she got better every tine she played and this thing came natural to her,more natural then some Men I've seen...
She's like a female version of Steve Nash. I've never really seen any female players (no disrespect intended) that have wowed me, but this girl is sensational. I just might have to watch a few of her games on TV. Her passing and shooting abilities are incredible!
She has some front court tendencies (holds the ball high in the post, bodies and uses her strength), but, other than that, yeah. She has supreme confidence in her shot, can dribble, crossover, and is an amazing passer.
She's just the best! The G.O.A.T! Such smooth moves, she got it in herself. She was born to play basketball. Her halfcourt shots are just superb and so are all her shots! Love you, Diana, you're the best!
I love me some lindsay Whalen. We have to face sue bird and diana. This is going to be a battle. Let's go. These are the some of the best guards in the history of the sport. They are the best of the best!
She's the best female player I have ever watched. Most women don't look natural in their movements when shooting off the dribble and other things. Moore is another one that has that kind of movement, and Paige is a young one that has that movement.
Awesome video of Diana Taurasi's awesome basketball artistry. I was going to send this to my daughter (a youth AAU basketball player) for some additional inspiration. But after seeing the revealing picture of the woman with no clothes on at the end of the video I decided not to. The picture at the end simply did not need to be there.
@ tony, well well...I don't know about you bad mouthing Parker, I am totally not making it my business but both Taurasi and Parker are by far the best players in America, if they both stay healthy who knows what their class will do? If I say so only because it's true, Parker is a much better player. She can play all 5 positions and yes she is more aggressive than most players out there male or female. Taurasi is pure sweetness and Parker is simply the best to this generation! Best of luck both
@keshealm im thinking that when @lachokola said she has more championship it was including everything... i.e.-Euroleague, NCAA, WNBA, Olympics, Worlds.... just sayin;
I have never watched any women's basketball that really amazed me til I watched this video. I didn't realize how quick and agile she is... Also how great of a passer she is. She's making some passes that would be popular in the nba. That's a badass chick
@keshealm What more does she have to do? She has WNBA titles, she has NCAA titles, she has Euroleague titles, she gold medals, and she has scoring titles. She's also a good defender and a good playmaker.
FAN FOR LIFE! I was there at the Tulsa game when she made eight three point baskets. Thanks for this post. I love Taurasi! She is the best WNBA player!!
Awesome highlights! If I'm not mistaken, you even have new coverage from her new team in Turkey, right?! Phenomenal job on this! She is the best and not enough people know that. Clips like this help others appreciate her talent as much as we WCBB and WNBA diehards do!...Thank you!
