Topics
Host: 南希·利伯曼是一位坚韧的先锋和开拓者，在女子和男子篮球领域都取得了辉煌的成就。她是一位两届奥运选手、两届名人堂成员、BIG3教练和冠军。她开创了先河，为后来者铺平了道路。 Nancy Lieberman: 我年轻时打球只是因为好玩，根本没有想过自己会成为先锋。我来自一个功能失调的家庭，童年生活很艰难。我受够了别人说我笨，说我一事无成。我小时候每天都打架，而且我从小就喜欢运动。我在球场上感到自在和被爱。穆罕默德·阿里激励了我，让我相信自己是最伟大的。我最终加入了奥运代表队和泛美运动会代表队，成为奥运史上最年轻的运动员。篮球让我更容易接触到黑人文化，我在指导男性方面很成功。我离开了萨克拉门托国王队的工作，去照顾我的妈妈。我感谢艾斯·库伯给我机会。我为女子篮球的发展感到自豪，我们应该团结起来，共同成功。

Shownotes Transcript

“I go, ‘No, Mr. Muhammad, I'm the greatest of all times.’”

Nancy Lieberman is a legend. She’s conquered basically every court, in women’s and men’s basketball, from playing to coaching in the WNBA, NBA, and BIG3. Now, when women’s basketball has reached new heights, Nancy looks back on how far the game has come… and how brightly the stars of the current day – Angel Reese, Caitlin Clark, A’ja Wilson, and more – shine when the spotlight is finally put on them.

Nancy also speaks about her unthinkable path from an impoverished upbringing, finding her confidence and community at Rucker Park as a teenager, to befriending her idol… Muhammad Ali, who served as a guiding light over the course of her life and career.
