I played over 2,000 games with the rookiie of the year in that league. Her name was Sandra Smallwood and she is in the Belmont college HOF. She wss on the New Orleans franchise.
In 1982 I was at the Sporting Club in Atlanta and my friend and I saw her shooting. I walked over to her and asked her if she wanted to play one on one.
We played together for the next 5 years every weekday in at least 3 games a day. She was a much better shooter than me. I was a better driver and being 2 inches taller could out rebound her.
A month ago she sent me a video of Spud Webb who also played at the Spprting Club once in a while. She said to me "remember when we had game".

We played against the Atlanta Falcons and pretty good competition.

We could hoop.
