How The WNBA’s Most LEGENDARY Team Fell Apart

The Rockets won back-to-back titles, the Comets four-peated, the Astros were in the playoffs in three straight years after missing out the last decade.

I was picking up someone at the arrivals pickup at Terminal C and... there she was. A little across the way. This was when she was already in the throes of her cancer treatment. Not wanting to bother her, but still wanting to encourage her to fight and show appreciation for what she had and still was doing for Houston, I yelled to her "YOU GOT THIS, KIM!" She smiled and waved at me, and that was that. My single moment with Kim, hoping to help in whatever way, even just sending her love. I wish it had been enough. It obviously wasn't, and she passed away later. :( But still, what we got to see, what she meant to all of Houston at the time... Yep. She was special. #3 for #10.

90's sports was so much fun to watch. And as a young man I did have a major crush on Tina Thompson. The Houston Comets and New York Liberty was some of the best basketball back in the day.

[@kasiahroy2082]

Those lips and her signature lipstick were everything

[@alvaspringer8716]

4 chips and no more team... how does that happen?

[@blubastud]

18:12 Tina Thompson's face says everything you need to know about that play, lol.

[@outlawedbeats]

It's funny, I forgot I used to watch the wnba, but watching this made me remember! This team made me interested in the wnba. They were soooo good!

He was out of pocket for that.

The Compaq center used to be rocking. I thought I was gonna grow up and get to go to games more.

[@lionelbutler6541]

The Comets were the last professional sports team to win 4 Championships in a row, let that sink in.

[@mrf19741]

I'll be the first to admit that when the WNBA first debuted, the Houston Comets were my favorite team. There was a genuine interest and buzz for the league. Watching the Comets dominate and establish their dynasty was really entertaining. Kim Perrot was the spark, glue, and heart of that team. God Bless her soul and may she rest in peace.

I loved watching this team back in the day! 😁😊

I remember my parents taking us on a trip just to watch the Comets vs the Shock back in 98. My dad was all things Detroit and my mom was all things Houston. That day I became a fan of Cindy Brown, Lynette Woodard, Swoopes and Cooper. I was so sad when the Comets went under smh

[@zebertbrown1517]

I've long wondered what happened to the Houston Comets, the 1st dynasty in professional women's 🏀. Now, I know. It's such a sad story. The Comets were my team! (At least in the 🌎 of professional women's sports.) Once Copper retired and Swoops got hurt, things were never the same for this legendary franchise. I hope Houston will one day get another pro-women's basketball team. They deserve a sencond chance at it.

[@blacksuburban2410]

This is when I loved watching the WNBA. CC is the GOAT. And it’s not even close. She was 5 or 6 years past her prime when the WNBA kicked off and was STILL the best in the game.

[@Shoevibechat]

Same happened to the Detroit shock. 3 time champs and somehow we lost them to another city. After the comets and spark Detroit was the next top tier team.

[@traceyhall8877]

I remember living so close I heard the celebration of us winning a championship when I was a kid.. Good times! Miss my Houston Comets

[@valgentry4095]

I remember that shot from Theresa Witherspoon. I worked at the Summit/Compac Centre, from "91-98" & 2003! Chucky The Lone Wolf 🐺 H-Town (🎱🦈)

[@Boopooh43]

I was there too. Shot was like a dagger in the stands, epic!
