In watching and observing other the years, some players are very charismatic people - funny in interviews, or interesting to talk to, or just very interesting people period. You feel instantly at ease with them. You want to know more about them almost immediately.

Other players don't have that gift. They are bad interviews, unable to elaborate a response beyond a few brief syllables. Or are cranky in general, or just dull. That says nothing about them as persons, merely that either don't grab your interest or worse, make you disinterested in them.

If you had to put together a team of current players (at positions 1 through 5):

* who would be your all-charisma team?
* could you come up with a first or second all-charisma team?
* who would be on the WNBA All-Time Charisma Team?

All of these players, are players who either, make me laugh, intriguing, or just seem really down to Earth.

Current players:

G: Diana Taurasi
G: Ivory Latta
F: Chiney Ogwumike
F: Nneka Ogwumike
C: Imani Boyette

All-time (this list has a very Liberty slant, YMMV):

G: Teresa Weatherspoon
G: Ashley Battle
F: Tamika Catchings
F: Taj McWilliams-Franklin
C: Tari Phillips

To be honest, in New York, you could probably still put Spoon on the current list, even at mumble-mumble years old. (And honorable mention has to go to Sue Wicks, who probably still holds the Liberty franchise record for most autographs given, and if it weren't for Catch she would probably hold the league record.) (Yes, I know that's not an official stat, pilight.)

I have to agree about EDD (though "dead fish" might be a little harsh).

Seems like a nice person, great player, invisible personality (for whatever reason).

I like EDD and have seen some pieces where she was thoughtful and interesting which is why she is on my team, she ain't got to be on yours but I'm cool with my choice.
