Wow, that was actually a good interview. They responded with real human responses, not the same ol' canned answers we usually get from the NBA guys, ie "we just wanna go out there and give 110%, blahblahblah". How many times have we seen a reporter ask a pro sport player something specific and they respond with some generalization that doesn't even answer the question? I'm talking about you, Eli Manning. Bravo girls.

Taurasi is hella funny and I predict she'll end up as the greatest scorer in WNBA history. As for Sue Bird, she's so naturally gorgeous. Great player and gorgeous.
