Opinions on this challenge:

A five-player all-time WNBA team, whose players:

- played for a U.S. college (no Lauren Jacksons)
- never won a national championship in any 4-year or 2-year NCAA division
- must include one point guard, one shooting guard, one (mostly) center, and two forwards

Lindsay Whalen
Cappie Pondexter
Elena Delle Donne
Tina Thompson
Lisa Leslie


On the bench we'll have

Skylar Diggins
Courtney Vandersloot
Deanna Nolan
Katie Smith
Jonquel Jones
Sylvia Fowles


I think that's a pretty strong 11

I'd have Seimone Augustus on that 11 player team, and maybe even on the first team, although I'm not sure she's a 2 or 3. Probably a 3.

Interestingly the only player in your starting 5 to reach the Final Four is Whalen. You could swap her with Vandersloot and none of those players advanced past the Elite 8 collegiately.

Lisa Leslie would drop 30 and 15 on them. Twisted Evil

If I could interrupt your trash talk to interject some truth right fast:

In 27 career games head-to-head versus Yolanda Griffith, Lisa Leslie averaged 13.7 points on .415 FG%, and 7.9 rebounds. Her career scoring high versus Yo was 23. Her career rebounding high was 14. She had more career games where Yo held her to single digits (8) than she did where she scored 20 or more (6).

Lisa Leslie was an all-time great. But if Yo Griffith had 99 problems, Lisa Leslie wasn't one of them. #MFFL

Ok. 29 and 14. And Yo fouls out. Laughing

BIG Yo Griffith fan here. Thank you for this. Yo was the best defensive post in the game. She vacuumed every rebound she was in the vicinity of. Her core strength did not allow anyone to get past her.
