With the season approaching, I find myself excited about many things. Seeing Sheryl and Swin play together. Seeing Fowles in Chicago and how that changes their squad. Seeing the new Atlanta squad play. Waiting to see what rookie surprises and emerging players happen this season.

But something else excites me. Something dark and dirty. Something I never thought I would admit.

I, eyevolley4, am excited for the return of Lisa Leslie-Lockwood.

Exclamation

No, no, I'm not a big fan, but there is a villainous quality that I think Lisa brings that few others in the league possess. Running to the computer to complain about Leslie's elbows was practically a ritual of mine and many others, and I, for one, am happy that will be coming back to me.

So the question is, am I sick in the head for being pumped about the return of Anne Meyers favorite basketball player ever - L. L. L.

The lack of a villain last year did make for a somewhat lackluster season, IMO.

growing up in the playgrounds of the bronx....brooklyn.....and newark in the 60's.....the rule was....."if you're close enough to catch an elbow.....you're too close"...... Exclamation

I am too...and you know, I actually don't mind LLL when her elbows are on my side of things.. Wink

Seriously, I still say Candace and Lisa on the same time have the potential for..well..a lot of fun..

Say what you will about LLL's style of play - she is STILL one of the most prolific players ever to lace them up, and probably still the most recognized face in the WNBA.

Despite her age, I predict she will come back with a vengeance in 2008 - just to prove a point. Don't know how much gas is left in the tank for 2009 and beyond, but she will be playing in MVP form in 2008.

It's simply a love/hate relationship with me.........

I'd love to have her on my team but I love to hate her when she's not. She' a great player, competitor and good for the game.

I am stunned but I actually missed LLL too.

But You know I am looking forward to making a villian out of her New Apprentice. (Assuming that Parker is the #1 Pick) I know Parker is super talented but I wouls actually like to have her score a point in the WNBA before we Stamp her into the All-Star Status.

I missed her alot. Without lisa there wasnt alot of fun in going to see the Sparks. Should Tina leave the Comets I will say the same thing.

I actually missed LLL too. More importantly, I miss hating the Sparks. I sorta started feeling sorry for them during the Henry Bibby experiment and haven't reacquired that hatred. It's much more fun to boo them when they are good, so I actually look forward to Michael Cooper turning them back into the evil empire of the WNBA! I hope Lisa comes back with a vengeance, it will be like the old days at ARCO! Twisted Evil

That's a good point MamaBristow.

Last year, with Spencer and Taj, it was a real challenge for me to dislike the Sparks. The only thing that helped me hold onto the hate in the long term was when I had to watch tons of interviews about and of Leslie talking about whatever the heck they wanted to talk to her about that day.

It's like they made us suffer through watching Sparks games because they wanted us to watch Lisa Leslie-Lockwood interviews.

At least get her back on the court where she is much more hate-able.

Diana just doesn't have whatever it is that LLL has. I can't imagine anyone saying "I'm gonna fuck that bitch up" when referring to The Diana.
