You could skip the first 6 minutes of Diana talking and start listening at 5:57 if you want to hear the 30 seconds where this video is related to Caitlyn
Thank you börther
btw, you dropped this 👑
Ty so much. Her words are meaningless and the softball...and she still insults fans and tries to change what she originally said. No more olympics from this loser.
Thanks much.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH
You the real MVP bro
I bet nobody's watching this if Caitlin Clark is not in the title.

Well, you’re wrong…so, there’s that
Literally wrong. But not nominally wrong....
Well ok one person would watch
@@Rebound703 I don't like hyperbolic language
Is anyone else here just because of CC?
Nope 😂
@@JasmineJoseph-x6c 😁 I bet you are
I was an absolute Diana fan for years even watching her play here every time I got a chance to get tickets for mercury… now I see a hater demon in her and not a roll model for every girls trying their best like Caitlin to play for WNBA” Diana you suck now I see why every player hated you”
I'm still trying to figure out why she felt the need to Warn Caitlin. It's not as if Caitlin is giving interviews and telling the WNBA world she's going to rule it. She hasn't said anything. But Diana felt the need to have to warn her. While she's right in the sense the women who play in the WNBA are way bigger and stronger than those in college. But once Caitlin hits the gym to do strength training that won't be a problem. I call BULLSHIT because I know I didn't hear her personally warn any of the other rookies.
I was about to call "Click Bait"!!!! Why wait for 6 mins to get a 10 sec answer???
She responded well, btw
It feels like the reporters don't want to ask a Caitlin question right off the bat. They want to ease their way into it😂
@@hoosierproud7718 learn to spell.
@@GeorgeGlass1975 sorry
Because her sensitive ego 😅
@@JohnDoe-zw8vx blow me.
🤭 let's keep it 100..Taurasi is da goat and right on point..Mamba Mentality..only ballers know and could see that Clark struggled in college against ATHLETIC guards n wings..the W..bigger taller faster meaner..
Give Clark time to adjust..it will be rough for her..
I’m a CC fan and found nothing negative here
Taurasi is jelly as all heck, I love it.
@daniellewis5474 A two time loser with 28 million dollars more than her. I love you jealous minorities.
@daniellewis5474 takes a team to win Bertha. Keep hating because she's white you Spook. 🤣🤣
@daniellewis5474 takes a team effort Spook. Someone jelly about a white woman and I love it. Clark and her 28 million dollars thanks you.
@daniellewis5474 But have all those championships made the WNBA more popular?
@@kristinaperez-ortiz8992nope she was right
Aged even better now😂
😂😂😂😂
Exactly 😅😅😅😅😅😅
There was a time when I really admired Diana and loved watching her play from her college days to the WNBA. Her comments about Caitlin were unnecessary and did not serve to promote the spirit of women's basketball. IMO they made her look small minded. Looking forward to her retirement.
Please retire we don't need you and no one watches you. Caitlin Clark is something that you want to be but you are not. Tell Jesus what you say about people.
Maybe she has a little salt on her fries lol...but she's human. Let them play it out
She made herself look small-minded when you go out of your way go to national televised game her and suburbs to disrespect someone because you're rooting for your team that you played for and get it in that format they're paying you to analyze the game not to express your personal opinion and say it the way you said it so you reap what you sow in this world you're there to analyze both teams and talk about both teams but you didn't do that majority of the program you disrespected you just you didn't acknowledge and you said anything that you can say to disrespect a 22 year old because you could and you can and her values she's Catholic you're lesbian he won't make it to heaven but it is what it is
Just watched the first half of CC's debut vs Dallas. Since this is by far the MOST W I've ever watched, a few things stand out: 1) Some of these ladies can't hit from 3' away and miss horribly from 18', 2) Some of these ladies pass horribly, and 3) CC leads all scorers with 16 on over 50% shooting from the arc, while sitting more than she ever did in college! Soooooo, when's that "wake up call" coming for her?😂
She did watch tonight’s debut game! The leaning adjustment was in effect. All she was saying that’s it was levels playing against kids then playing against grown women. CC debut vs Dallas was a scrimmage type game them games was played for rosters sports. Connecticut Introduced her to the welcome to league debut with the physical Defense and 10 turnovers and it was learning curve! Taurasi new what she was talking about and like she said it’s not the same!
Avging 7 turnovers per game lmao
@@MoonIronTR 2-3 per game of which were simply her teammates not being prepared for her passes or completely bungling them. Saw at least 2 last night. She'd also be averaging 3-4 additional assists per game if they could actually make layups and shots from the little arc!
@@bobboyoop1141as of today she lead the league in turnovers and she lead it by 26😂😂😂😂😂2-9 record😂😂😂😂FOH
Save some of your precious time and go straight to the minute 5:54 for the Caitlin Clark question. I did not care about anything else she had to say.
Thank you.
These players are getting more attention now than ever before, all thanks to CC! They should appreciate that fact.
How is she hating ?
2 weeks later, she's beyond right. People gonna learn that DT has already been there and CC isn't God. DT has won on every level and is a future 1st ballot hall of famer. When she speaks, you listen.
Y'all know that DT is considered the GOAT and media tried to portray CC as a BIRD like evolution..LOL CC can't handle the athleticism so far..
This!!
Thank you!!!
I didn't know who Diana Taurus was because a good boys JV team can beat a WNBA team. Caitlin Clark's style is something the women can emulate. Trying to be a she-Lebron is boring.
She’s 42. You’re going to see the difference when the fever play in Phoenix.
I hope everyone watch the game against Connecticut it’s level welcome to the league
Go have another drink Diana.
I love her so much. Every interview I love her more and more
Diana I’m glad you are having to eat crow Caitlin scored 21 points in her first game I hope you are never allowed to call another one of her games
@daniellewis5474 does she own the NCAA scoring record? Does she have a 28 million Nike deal. Move along Luther.
@daniellewis5474 every one knows she’s jealous 😂
@@GeorgeGlass1975 well tonight first game proved Taurasi new what she was talking about!
@daniellewis5474 Taurasi was speaking facts that preseason game was totally different from tonight game! Ouch 10 turnovers she found out the physical side and the difference from playing against kids and grown women defense it’s levels
@@502Rico well Kunta, it's one game and her turnover numbers will drop. Still scored 20 and 28 million richer than you. 🤣🤣🤣
Everyone needs to just let these ladies play ball and keep the negativity away from these girls !!
In regard to her comments about Caitlin Clark, saying now the fans are sensitive is being dismissive, what she originally said about C.C. was discouraging & I’m disappointed in her.
She just said that there WNBA is a different level compared to NCAA. That is not hate. It is just fact.
@@anotherelvis wake up Elvis, and leave the building
She still playing?
Diana Thank you for Your words on CC Here. Prior to this, I wasnt impressed by things you had said, Because you are a Veteran, a Role Model. But today in this Press Conf. You said ; about Caitlin. Greatness Translates at every level and Caitlin has been able to do that at every level, and you dont see that being any different for Her in The WNBA. I think for me Personally, Now that Ive Heard you on this, Im good with it. Because Realistically, Lets Be Real, let’s put it all out there on the Basketball Courts Gametime where it Belongs.
she's covering her ass old man.
What did you hear her say the first time?
@@Lord.wallace Google it.
I agree 100 with your post. I think if fans were a little less sensitive it wouldn't have been a big deal.
@@Lord.wallace Google, ever hear of it?
I saw nothing wrong with Taurasi original statement regarding CC. There is a learning curve moving from college to the pro ranks. Not just for CC. All rookies have to adjust to the speed and physicality. Some get it faster than others. But nothing wrong with Taurai's comment.
Nah you could tell she was jealous based off her tone
@@devinv6836 --Its possible, or maybe not. Could be her 19yrs in the league where she has seen rookies come and go.
@@devinv6836tone. Really?
@@chrisk2734 yeah, really.
I thought Taurasi retired a few years ago.
DT is a great player. But she does not bring fans to the arenas or the TV set. Same with the NBA OGs. There are a lot of greats before Magic, Bird and MJ. OGs that these 3 idolized. NBA was bankrupt and surged when Magic v Bird came to play. Maybe Caitlin Clark will be WNBAs own Magic v Bird. “The Caitlin Clark effect.”
"Thank you Caitlin Clark for the charter planes. We're trying that for more than 20 years. You made it happen. I am a big fan now." - Diana Taurasi
Actually las Vegas aces and NY liberty had private jets but had to give them up.
@@chrisk2734 The whole league (WNBA) had private jets?
Diana doesn't care about "new" fans and growing the sport and the WNBA. If she did, she wouldn't have insulted the "new" fans! She knows her playing days are numbered and resents that these "new players" with their "new fans" are going to REALLY grow the sport. Something she didn't do. I look forward to the Fever playing her team and the matchup between her and Caitlin.
Who is this old lady?? 😂😂
Nobody cares about these has beens. They don’t get that fact. The needle never moved for 20+ years until this years athletes caught our interest.
Diana should be thankful CC has exploded on scene with tons of fans excited to watch WNBA because without her hating on CC no one would know would DT was. So take a bow Ms Intitled We see you and will only ever know your hate
Seriously it would be like playing on my son’s little league baseball team……let it go you can only be young once and that was 20yrs ago. It’s fresh faces like CC that are bringing fans here to have an opportunity to see WNBA teams play because to be honest they weren’t before.
Y’all are blowing things so out of proportion. New fans are annoying. Stop looking to be hurt and just enjoy the game
old and caitlins hater. period
Yeah, well, she implied with the quip “reality’s coming” that Caitlyn and her supporters are in some way divorced from reality when everyone knew, including Caitlyn, that there’d be an adjustment period and that she’s not going to have the same impact on the WNBA as the WNCAA; at least not immediately. Taurasi throwing shade on CC with her firm grip of the obvious is pretty grating. She should leave being a pundit to the ESPN pukes and just play ball.
I agree however she should just leave. She does not represent the WNBA well and does not represent the USA well with her dirty Diana play.
I never heard of Tardasi let alone know she played basketball. But because Clark is making people associated with the wnba famous I learned of Tardasi. She is obviously very jealous and hates the Messiah.
I LOVE that you are calling Taurasi TARD that is an accident however so very true!
She’s just not a nice person. She can’t admit that it’s caitlin that brought it in all the attention
I suppose she doesn't like to give her credit because they've been pushing the brand for so long with little success.
Is Diana Taurasi the daughter of Tiny Tim the musical talent from the 1960s? Amazing simulator facially.
If Taurasi exposes Clark, the league will suffer.
@daniellewis5474 and Spooks like you will cry when she doesn't. How come you all haven't evolved from apes yet?
@daniellewis5474 it's the ppl not watching that I was getting at. The league is ALL Clark at this point. Not Reese or Stewie or anyone else.
@daniellewis5474 Danielle understand Clark is the future, she is here and for real, Taurasi is the past and should be thankful to Caitlin for what Caitlin is doing for the W. Stop whining stop hating, start loving and become a Clarke!
Btw taurasi , parker , griner and the welfare league lost viewers and ratings 18 of the 20 seasons they have played. Clark already sold out 40+ games and that includes road games moved into bigger arenas...
Aged like fine Wine😂
Caitlin Clark effect! Watch everyone get on the bandwagon as Caitlin brings WNBA League to real view and wakes people up to it. Over 20 years of nothing but boring WNBA, now excitement and interest! Caitlin will change everything and will help the women get noticed and paid better. No one knew these players and teams until Caitlin came along.
If Penguin had a Daughter.
Can she get a sixth gold medal? I hope so! Go USA!
Any college's bb player can. No big deal.
I hope Caitlin makes the team and they have to play together. Now that would be fun to watch!
Am i the only one that she looks like abella danger
I might not watch her team play 🤣
Stop being jealous you’re not that good. She’s going to destroy your records.
👟 for clark
Past tense.
And Diana was 100% correct😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
So funny yhe vully has made herself even .ore irrelevant
who is this old man?
Out with the old in with the new, 41 shhhh.
Another angry lesbian
Every hero needs a villain! This petulant jealous player just ruined her legacy. Boo on you!
Go and do muffler dive
She needs to retire ....she is reverting talking about kindergarten 😂 she knows that's how she acting
The female Steph curry is officially on fraud watch 😂😂😂
It took Steph Curry time to adjust to the NBA.
@@Knightice765 so then she’s NOT the goat or the female Steph curry then LOL
Who cares. Sit down.
Different challenges, same flat revenues
Trash talking
I knaoe Taurasi as the wnba player who's hating on CC. That's your legacy
They doing reese and cardosa wrong where are the black women at where the spanish at why yall not livid they getting buried out in Chicago and they gad a preseason game too yet a man ME AND THE REPORTER WHO ASKED THE QUESTION ARE THE ONLY ONES WHO CARE WOW THATS PRICELESS
ruclips.net/video/y2Ej2Va-2p4/видео.htmlsi=ytNeKA8gncI1EIxA
Okay okay godschosen25 (notice no cap). This is not about Reese or Kamilla no one is hating on them. They are both awesome. Reese and Kamill are now on the same team. Hope Milla and Reese can play BB and now and not get into fights like LSU and SC in College. Hope they can continue to be role models. Cardoso remember is the one who pushe Fla’ja Johnson down. This is basketball not boxing.
There are no fans and she was talking on her butt and now she’s getting her butt slapped she got her five minutes of fame because nobody knew who she was until she made a comment about Kaitlyn Clark she just writing off Clark’s fame that she does not have in comparison
DIANA IS TO OLD NOW SHE NOT GOOD LIKE SHE WAS. BAD KNEES BACK, BONES JUST TO OLD. CLARK ISNT SO GOOD WERE THEY JUST TALK ABOUT HER, RESEE IS OK. THE NEW PLAYERS JUST HAVE TO GROWN. BUT NO HATING. THEY ALL PROS FOR AND REASON.
Diana you do not represent the W well. You play dirty and pretend you did nothing. PLEASE you have been in the league Loooooooog enough. You should know better. You are no longer a professional as demonstrated by your behavior.
🙈🙈🙈
New fans are real sensitive these days? Aren't these the same women who have based their league on social issues which is a big reason it's been failing year in year out.
It’s sad when DT is saying better things about CC than CC Coach Christy Sides. Sides is constantly criticizing CC, questioning her shot selection, her stamina and judgment. Great way to develop a franchise player 🥴
I totally noticed that too. I mean what boss criticizes an employee in front of other employees, or the world in this case? You say that in private and praise in public. This builds NO TRUST! Christie #22 is your future praise her in PUBLIC. COACH in private. Why are we training you? Why don’t you already know this?
@@mariarazanauskas3248 absolutely agree 💯
Franchise players still have to be developed.
Jealous much. You wish people would pay attention to you. Learn to play people may pay attention....
How about just try to be likable Diana. Swoops said stuff about CC she apologized. We forgave. Breanna Stewart threw shade on CC. She apologized. We forgave. Megan Rapinoe threw shade, she corrected her words. We forgave. YOU HAVE NEVER corrected your comments. This is why you are STILL getting trashed. Wake up Diana, this is not a good strategy. You care about money, you will not be the TV host as NO ONE cares what you have to say anymore. I have gone from DT fan to DT troll.
Why would Diana be hating on Clark. She ĥas multiple championships. Clark will never have one. A female version of Luka. She is a shooter and that is It. Plays no defense at all and many pass the ball way better. Empty stats lmao
Luca is about to win a championship 2024. You must be a hater too, if you are supporting DT hat’in on Caitlin. DT has said she is a grown woman, then please tell me why DT does NOT MENTOR any new players, you are a grown senior woman. Your legacy will now be hate instead of support for young players. Get a clue about Taurasi. You do not support the W and this the real Diana.
Ask her why Caitlin Clark's Parents don't sit together?
Why her Father looks like he hates her morher?
Please ask does Questions.🤷🤷🤷🤷
Okay News flash tactic1748. Joe Biden son, Hunter, has never worked in the White House or in any Biden office. Also, and this is all related so pay attention. Caitlin Clarks parents have never played on any of Caitlins basketball teams. They only support her and their family. This is YOU working to find anything bad that could possible reflect badly on Caitlin. Still there because this is the answer you need. You are a hater too.
Diana is looking like an absolute joke 😂
She's so full of it.
