Penny Taylor's jersey was officially retired by the Phoenix Mercury after this morning's win over NY.
They did a nice job with the ceremony...

Penny's reputation here in Australia has suffered because she has spent her summer months in Europe, whereas LJ regularly played in the WNBL which kept her profile huge.
But yeah, Penny's game at her peak was not far short of LJ's at all. She was never quite the go-to scoring machine that LJ was, but she is so damn smart, tough, and a great passer too. And so versatile. Consider that her first WNBA title was won playing the 4 spot, and her last one she was essentially the starting 2-guard.

I hadn't really heard her mention much about coaching in previous years, but I'm glad she has now because she'll make a good one.

Taylor and Jackson are the two greatest basketball players this country has produced by a long, long margin.

Agreed LC, she was a great player. I remember at one stage, I thought she was almost, if not, as good as LJ.
