That was a great speech I ain’t going to sit there and lie to you and especially since I watched her my entire life After High School and seeing her whole rise and seeing that she was one of the ones yeah for sure for sure
Happy to see Candace Parker get her flowers getting inducted into the basketball HOF. Much love & respect for CP3. A Candace Parker fan 4 ever. Great speech from CP3 one of the best to ever do it. Cool to see Cheryl Miller, A.I., Tamika Catchings & D. Wade 4 basketball Legends in their own right.
I keep saying this to CP3 on her podcast, in the comment sections, and I’ll say it one more time and then finally explain why: Pat would be proud. Now the why, and it’s really simple, because in college and sometimes outside of college that coach becomes a mix of a friend, a mentor, a coach, and sometimes a parent. Your parents aren’t there so your coach becomes an extension of them. You can tell with UT players that Pat was that for a lot of them, just like one of my coaches was that for me. Congratulations Candace! And it’s ok, I cried too when I said goodbye to basketball, not ashamed to say it. Once it was a love of my life, a friend, a teacher. I can still pick up a ball and it feels great, but not quite like it once did.
One of the greatest players in WNBA history. I loved how she got emotional 😢 at the end. When you put in the kind of work that she did to get to this point, you have a reason to be.
Wow amazing speech! Loved the 4 quarters theme. Delivered with grace, confidence and heart. HOF speech that others should review. Player, broadcaster, public speaker – world class in all and suspect much more. Brava!!
