Damn. And to think, you had Cynthia Cooper, Tina Thompson, and Sheryl Swoopes all on one team. The first real super team in the WNBA..
Not being funny but Sher came the last year of their run in other words they could of did it without sheryl
And Kim perrot
@@dorrianlassiter9980 Let's do a fact check on this statement
They were super tame because of Cynthia Cooper
@@Hunt9-qb1if I don't know about that because, both Sheryl Swoopes and Tina Thompson would have been number one options on different teams. And Sheryl Swoopes actually won MVP one year when Cynthia Cooper was there. In fact, I don't think there is a team in the league now that would be able to beat that Houston team
Charismatic speech from a very charismatic lady and ball player! Love you, Cynthia!!!
The best female basketball player ever, salute Cynthia! :)
No. Take a look at Cheryl Miller's game. Cheryl Miller was recruited by the NBA before the WNBA came along let alone is a hall of famer. Listen to her brother preach about her schooling the men
@@jackson5781 True! I remember hearing those accounts as a kid.
Best WNBA player then.. since they weren't around for Cheryl to play in.
@@jackson5781Best WNBA player then..
@@user-rk4ey7wh9q hold up, WNBA ain't been around very long. WNBA wasn't around when Cheryl Miller was playing. Cheryl would have cooked everyone of them. Cheryl is the GOAT of Women's basketball. 101 pts in a womens high school game. Let alone dominated USC!! Coop helped start the WNBA and Cheryl Miller helped start it as a coach. Player to player Cheryl is the GOAT. She cooked other countries in getting the U.S. Gold Medals. Coop could ball but as far as WNBA that has yet to be determined. Cause the WNBA ain't that old and look at it now and how much money it's bringing in due to one person. Sometimes you have to take a step back and understand the money and how much coop relied on the NBA for $$ as to where now they not relying on the NBA!! There are alot of factors
Cynthia Cooper is a legend she s one the pioneer of wnba .
Damn right.
YES INDEED🖖🏼👏🏿🌞🌟🌻🕊💖...
From Watts to USC & the WNBA; Cynthia you are a blessing and a true child of God; Thanks for being a role model and keeping it real; a true star on/off the court.Very Inspiring
YES INDEED🖖🏼👏🏿🌞🌟🌻🕊💖...
YESSSSSSSS SIR!!! It was a delight watching her play in my teen years. The Comets was my team Lord knows I thought I was the coach. Love you Ms Everything when it comes to THE WNBA ALL TIME GREAT!!!!
I've never seen a woman play the game like Cynthia!
Take a look at Cheryl Miller that woman if not injured would have been able to serious been able to play in the NBA at the time
My top lady Baller!
@@ernestclayboniii656 then you need to take a look back at Cheryl Miller. She was recruited by the NBA!! Yes I'm not kidding. Cheryl Miller's game was that good. This was before the WNBA came along. Cheryl played at UCLA. She later on coached and this woman schooled her brother Reggie. Listen to her brother preach about his sister's game.
@@jackson5781 She was a great player but I never watched her play a game only highlights. I did enjoy watching Coop have her run in Clutch City. It was almost 25 years ago but fun to watch.
@@jackson5781 USC
I couldn't agree with you more! Cynthia was a STRAIGHT BEAST!!! This woman was awesome! She could have played in the NBA, that's just how awesome she was! They talk about Cheryl Swoopes, but Cynthia was the greatest!
She was definitely my favorite player, coop!
Played in the NBA 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
💯
This woman was a straight BEAST!!! I loved this woman! And she is FINE! lol
Str8 up Wifey!!!✊🏾💯
But then she would get on the court and kick my tail?!
At that moment I’d feel like the wife🤦🏾♂️
“CooP”🐐🐐💯
A profound L.A. Locke High School (my high school too), 105th Street (my street too), and Watts (my district too) product. Because of her, I'm proud to be a Cooper TOO😄.
Excellent speech from a great player, Coop!
For me being from Houston, she's in my top 5 Houston pro team sports athletes. Hakeem Olajuwon, Earl Campbell, Cynthia Cooper, Craig Biggio, Andre Johnson.
She speaks so well, I really enjoy listening to Her.
The Greatest !
cho woods absolutely
female michael jordan
timhoward5 Nah. Mike is the male Cynthia Cooper. Cynthia. Well, she’s Coop all by herself. GOAT

Coop Coop Thy Best of the Best A Legend.
The Greatest Female Player Of All Time..
Beautiful and supremely talented.
I was too young and it was seldom televised so i didnt see Cheryl Miller play live. Cynthia is the best female baller ive ever seen
I always loved this woman even tho I was a Liberty fan in the early years when they were battling....
Oh man, as a Comets fan, I loved those games against the Liberty. That was all out war. Regardless of who won, you got a show. Especially Witherspoon. She was a terror.
mookeychase0907 I'm with you I was a comets fan from the start! Love watching the battle
mookeychase0907 That rivalry/finals was amazing. U had to love that half court buzzer beater by Spoon.
She created the cliche "bring your A game"...
NOT
The cliche "bring your A game has been out since the 80's.
Cintia Cooper was a spectacular player and seems very friendly to me. I remember that she was in Brazil in 1993, to play in the Club World Cup for the Parma team in Italy. Her team finished in second place and she was the second scorer of the match with 33 points. On her team was also Veanus Lacey. Hugs from 🇧🇷.
Gr8 speech. Very passionate person. Motivator. Any parent should be blessed to have this woman coach your child.
YES INDEED SISTAR...CONGRATULATIONS CYNTHIA COOPER, COOP COOP, ONE OF THE BEST EVER, LEGENDARY...WELL DESERVED AND DESERVING🖖🏼👏🏿🌞🌟🌻🕊💖...

Coop was a very good softball player as a teen at Will Rogers Park in Watts.

"One of the greatest wnba trailblazers to ever play the game... Beautiful Wife/Female/Mother/Mentor/Motivator/Hall Of Famers & Human Being!!!
TO. ONE. USC. TROJAN. FROM. ANOTHER . I EXPECT. NOTHING LESS. THAN. THE. BEST . EVER . CYNTHIA. COOPER. IS. A. CLASS. ACT . A. PROFESSIONAL. PERSON . A. TALENTED ,. SKILLED ,. HARD WORKER . WHO. WILL. DO. WHATEVER. IT. TAKES. TO. WIN . HER. MOM. MARY ,. USC TROJAN. FAMILY. AND. OTHERS. ARE. VERY. PROUD OF Y😇U . >🎤
I said it before and I’ll say it again….if the WNBA had already been established before she entered the league at a younger age, she would have shattered records! She was playing ball overseas until she entered the WNBA in its inaugural season at the age of 34. In the span of the only four years she played, her team won the championship 4 straight years and she was the finals m.v.p every time. Yes….the team was loaded, but take a look at some of her games from the past and witness why she’s considered a goat!
The wnba best player and my second favorite WNBA player behind Sheryl swoopes.
Yes I love some Cynthia Cooper!!
Love this lady
Probably the best woman's basketball player I have ever seen.
U go girl
Why was she sitting in the back? I feel all recipients should get to sit in front even though that means family and friends get the rows behind.
One of the he best to ever play basketball 🏀 male or female
Cynthia was good in high school with skills in basketball and she set record and one of best players and went to college did great to with awesome jump shot and passed the ball and awesome moves going to the paint and she was al that and went to Houston comic and won 4championships.and.mvp.and best. Gurad in.wnba and hall of fame
Timeline Favorite🥰💝
Man she could ball the female Mj ⛹🏾♀️🔥🔥
🐐🐐🐐🐐
My grandfather Frank cooper would be so proud of you the blood line is real
She's fine !!!!!!!!!!!!!
I was a Houston Comets fan because of Tina Thompson, Sheryl Swoopes and Cynthia Cooper. I can't believe the WNBA got rid of the Comets.
Stellar
no wonder USC was a Powerhouse they have Cheryl Miller and Cynthia Cooper on the same team
The best!
Female MJ frfr!!!!
...................................................MY FAV FEMALE BALL PLAYER
Cynthia sounds like a preacher.

Locke High School.. My high school 💯💯💯
When wnba was competitive.
Cooper the best wnba player ever.
Lol man i thought they were calling the wnba dykes.she was nice very nice her and swoops.
8:54 and it’s in HD baby 😂😂😂😂😂
Wow she made the Hall of fame in 5 seasons
Has scoring records that still stand
FINE, Enough said...
Many call her the greatest female player of all time.
Be careful people when you make statements like this.
I had season tickets in DC to the Mystics for about 5 seasons, and saw her play with the Comets.
It was like the equivalent of the Lakers coming to town. They were exciting to watch...
But before Cooper and the WNBA, there was a player named Cheryl Miller , Reggie's sister...
Know your history people!
She didn't even mention her college teammate Cheryl Miller ..... hmmmmmmmm
Damn she didn’t thank her teammates
Female jordan
I would pay real money for Cynthia copper worn shoes.
The best ever. The Michael Jordan of the Wnba.
This woman was so good I know she could've avg at least 12 pts in the nba.
Is she not the GOAT she has to be the MJ OF THE WNBA
2nd best woman basketball player. 2nd to cheryl miller
Dam she had got thick that grown women weight looks good
Tough crowd hardly anyone laughed.
Dress match the podium 😂
Why do people talk so bad about Cynthia Cooper?
Wht bad is said about Coop?
I've never heard a bad thing about her only great things, what have you heard that no one else has ?
She's the all time greatest
You clearly didnt watch the wnba.
@@lionman3378 I used to watch many of the WNBA games, and especially the games of the Houston Comets.
Mmmmmm
Certainly other women far better you just never heard of them cause they were at small schools or lesser known colleges.
She is high right now lol
