I am going to approach the recruitment of Lauren Jackson just like I would approach getting ready for a season
God sent her to play basketball. He woke up one day and said, 'Basketball needs Lauren Jackson'.
I'm going to approach the recruitment of Lauren Jackson how I would approach getting ready for a season ... We're going to be aggressive, we're going to be proactive and she is going to have a good feel of how much myself and (CEO) Karen (Bryant) and her teammates, but also how the fans and the organization want her in Seattle and need her in Seattle.
There's a lot of things to consider right now. I just need some time to breathe and really figure out what I want to do
I haven't even really thought about it. I'm just trying to get fixed and healed and get ready to get back on the court again.
At that time of the season, I thought we were the best team in the league ... I truly believe that. If things would have played out that way and we would have had everybody on deck in September, who knows what could have happened? We really feel good about that combination of people and we'd like to try to put it together again.
In Janell's situation, there's a strong possibility that she'll either play for the Seattle Storm or she'll take another summer off ... We'd like to have Janell here playing in Seattle and we wouldn't encourage her to go play anywhere else, so that's a decision she'll have to make.
