The Sparks are getting some media attention today. After the Henry Bibby disaster from last season, the players are looking forward to playing for Joe "Jellybean" Bryant this year.

According to Lisa Leslie: "He's a player's coach," she said. "He actually gives you that freedom to do whatever you want to do on the court and he actually asks you what you want to do."

And while it looked like Chamique Holdsclaw had returned to the team yesterday, that does not appear to be the case.
