@@bbwolfe6144 And she's not covered in tattoos and/or kneeling for the national anthem. She's well known for her TALENT as opposed to whining about how oppressed she is.
The media is 100% responsible for what happens to CC in the WNBA. They put her on this high pedestal and made her the new face of the franchise. It's almost as if they were expecting her to be the Lebron James of the WNBA which is insane. The truth is all the hype they put on CC only made the current WNBA players for more focused and competitive than what they already were because all the women are special in what they do on the court. I believe the media used CC as a pawn to overall increase the level of competitive play in the WNBA. Of course women are going to become jealous when a rookie is getting all the attention and the way they are going to deal with it is by outplaying her every chance they get. Now CC is going to be in a out all dogfight everytime she hits the court. This is her test right now to see if she will truly rise to the occasion and be the champion she's being paid to be or simply become just another body wearing a new WNBA jersey. Only time will reveal the answer so let's patiently wait and see what happens.🙏
That's so not true. CC is doing exactly what most people thought. She's carving her niche...She's a great player and will get better and better. Btw, you act as if she's terrible. She's one of only 3 players ever to score 100 points, 30 assists and 30 rebounds in their first 6 games...haha...So there's that little tid bit. She's also 4th in assists, averages 16 per game, 5 rebounds. Pretty damn good. If she can cut down on the TO's a little, you'd have one hell of a player.
@@lisareynolds9799 I never said or am I acting like she's a terrible player. She's a fantastic hooper otherwise she wouldn't be in the WNBA but you must admit she's been chosen to be the new face of the franchise. When you're the #1 draft pick you got to show people why and most people already would know without question. For the last three decades #1 draft picks can literally come straight out of high school and be legitimate stars on day one. I'm not saying it happens all the time but unfortunately those are the expectations for her because of her multi-million dollar contracts. The real question that must be answered is what advantages and new weapons does she possess right now that will allow her to dominate in the WNBA the way she did in college? She literally would have to be an assassin with shooting the basketball meaning no matter who's guarding her she's never going to ever miss a shot on offense and be a master pickpocket thief on defense on every possession just to even be in competition at this level. In all honesty the worst thing that can happen is that she ends up having to end her career with an excuse for why she doesn't want to play anymore. So blame the media because they chose her and it's up to her to rise above the expectations starting right now. We all know it's the truth.🙏
@J.Crooner You are absolutely correct. And Caitlin's fans want to blame everyone BUT Caitlin for turnovers, poor ball handling and minimal three-pointers. WNBA already had elite guards. And are they supposed to just roll over and not do their jobs because of Caitlin Clark fans????
You said they are putting her in a pedestal and expecting her to be the next Lebron James. Well maybe you need to go back and look at the way media for the NBA have treated players like Lebron, Kobie, Michael. They were talked up by the media. They asked other players in the league about them they were hyped up by the media and fans and tickets were sold. The difference is that the NBA players didn’t show the hostility and jealousy that women do. The flagrant abuse that CC has taken on the court is ridiculous and I don’t think race has anything to do with it. It’s all jealousy from women in a league that has never had any hype now getting hype because of an exciting new player.
@brannoncash5806 So these vets are jealous? Taurasi, B Stewart. Aja Wilson, Chelsea Gray, etc (to name a few) have always been good/great at what they do. THE play is just physical and SOME players take it too far. Draymond Green comes to mind. Ever heard of Dennis Rodman, Isaiah Thomas. It's not women; it's competition in a team sport.
Ok every interview a coach or player is asked about Catlin Clark...usually loaded questions and when a coach or player gives personal opinion it becomes a thing. Media needs to chill and let CC and the other ladies on Fever and WNBA teams play. But after all this is entertainment and media must keep a story line.😮
If they chill, women’s basketball may become what it was again. Boring and unwatchable. They have to continue to push CC otherwise ain’t no one watching.
No one said Caitlin Clark is perfect. And It's just Basketball. It's not "A WHOLE NOTHER NEW WORLD" Clark and the rest of the rookies will be fine as long as they don't get caught up in the drama and pettiness of people in the league. Like these two up there.
That would correct, but did she have the guts of her Belief to say that in front of her coach? A Coach who knows very well what's really going on, and is denying it all on camera. Hey Coach, try telling your Own "Abused And Mistreated Cause She Black" Star Player, to keep her trap shut. Ever think of that?
It’s not the current WNBA players that are causing the problems. It’s a lot of people on the outside in the media who are causing the backlash against CC. A lot of her fans are also extremely obnoxious, constantly telling people that the only reason why anyone is paying any attention to the WNBA is because of her, which is untrue and irrational because it’s easily disprovable, but they say it constantly even when the topic has nothing to do with her. Caitlin herself is handling the situation well, with composure, graciousness, gratitude, appreciation, etc. It’s the media and people who are using her to push their agenda who are creating the issue.
Ppl are giving this charity a chance because of CC and angel Reese. The media is definitely behind this mess and cc fans are annoying. The drama is what people are into, because the level of play isn’t great.
I played low level basketball in the '60s. I stopped watching NBA long ago. It's not basketball as I learned it. NBA is all about massive dunks, prima donnas, and prestige. It has nothing to do with below the rim basketball. And I don't like it. Caitlin has brought strategic basketball back to those of us who love the strategy game. For the first time in decades, I'm watching basketball. This women's game is awesome. It's about ball handling, feeds, step back jumpers, and beating the defense with movement and strategy. Thank you to this new crowd.
I have always disliked basketball. Even playing it in pick up games as I kid, it seemed chaotic and had all sorts of useless roughness built into the game. But I like women's sports. Prefer women's tennis to the men, prefer women's soccer to the men. There is a different energy and passion about it, whereas the men come across much more as entitled millionaires. But I started to watch women's basketball to find out what all this Caitlin Clark noise was about, and have become intrigued by learning about it through her journey. It is a...story line. Story lines make all the difference. In the process, though, I am also learning about blocks, screens, moving screens, etc. and actually gaining some basic understanding of how the game is played.
My first WNBA was watching the now retired Candace Parker on the Sparks play the now defunct Shock. Women's basketball had always been more strategic and reminiscent of "the old school" basketball my elders tends to speak about. However, whatever or whoever was your entry point, it's good to hear you can enjoy it again
The issue people have is not with her but how the media is presenting her as the savior of the WNBA. Every game that has her in it centers her no matter what else or who else was significant.
And that's no fault of CC's. Yet, the blacks are the ones to attack her because she has too much spotlight. Do you realize how low that is to attack a kid because media glorifies her? She's a great kid, a true professional..we don't need racists in this world hating because she's great, oh yeah, and white.
The disrespect is at a all time high she set there and said she's only 22 years old then dogs her saying idc if it's kermet the frog bringing in the audience and just not acknowledging the great change that cc game has bring
Yeah right, neither one of you sound sincere. Aja brought up the racial issue and you coach Becky were one of the first ones to knock Caitlin remember “yeah that”. Ask her best friend Kate about Caitlin. You all just hate. Aja what is so funny? You’re NOT PERFECT either.
Is simply making a factual statement hating? All she said is that part of Clark's popularity is because she is white. This is absolutely true, but it isn't due to racism. It is simply something that makes what she is doing more interesting to a casual audience.
She said the shoe deal is about race in how she’s done historical things for the league and still had no shoe to show for it while Clark immediately got a deal with not even a college chip to show for it, even before officially coming into the league.
A'ja Played The Race Card about a Shoe Deal, and her Coach Lies On Camera about There being no Problem with CC, at all in that league, sitting next to the most recent Promoter of Racism towards CC. Remind me what the "Very Nice" part was, that was deserving of your "Amen"?
@@blackmoom Precisely. It's the media putting a negative spin on every comment to make it out to be hateful of CC. In reality these players are constantly being asked about Clark and if they have a single moment of anything, but pure adulation for her it will be construed as hate.
Media trying hard to get that clickbait. They make it seem as if Caitlin is turning water into wine and eventually one of these women are gonna call it out. Then they'll spin it like the player just randomly spouted that off. Media is digging for hot responses. These women have set records for attendance, merch sales, viewership, and revenue a few years running and growing. Some people want to give all the credit to Caitlin, which she is a driving force, but she isn't the only one drawing. Of course her demographic plays a huge role, it should. People are seeing a little(by athlete's standards) American white girl hitting Steph like shots and they're all in for the latest sensation. Angel has a lot of black support, as does A'ja, as it should be. Representation matters. They don't hate Caitlin, but I'm sure they have a chip on their shoulders to prove themselves while folks discrediting their skills, and work ethics. They're professional athletes afterall. Bill Russell wanted to make $1,000,001 because Wilt made $1,000,000 while Russell was the MVP. This is the 60's and two black men, athletes are competitive and egotistical by nature.
@@lilikaramirez1848 that's my point. Calling character into question and saying they're not good people, because they don't like how the hype is painting them and the game as a whole, but are now leaving the conversation on a positive note by giving Caitlin some grace is very shortsighted. Yes I listened to this interview and read A'ja's previous interview on Clark. Breathe and think bigger picture. Let's not be so quick to call people bad over a disagreement.
Go pull up numbers they did anywhere close to caitlin clark from attendance to ticket sales since they been doing this where's your proof? Cause mine says opposite
@@lilikaramirez1848girl you commenting on everyone post. You know nothing about basketball. Aja is way better than Caitlin and deserves more but because Caitlin is white she’s getting the attention because yall can’t beat us. Aja is saying from the media stand point, espn and y’all children of the corn it’s about race because she’s the top player with 2 championships and mvp. From a player standpoint it’s not about race because the other star players on her team are white.
Aja had the chance to clarify her remarks recently, specifically and that would have squashed the haters. Not a black / white thing, not who got the first shoe deal, simply a ton of talented Ladies raising the roof. One other thing, The WNBA pushing equity rather than equal opportunity would make this old, grizzled follower and fan of the WNBA happy! Capitalism is not built on equity, it's built on everyone having the same chances through hard work,
A'ja over there laughing and she called people racist because they like Caitlin, then whined about not getting a shoe deal because people are racist when in fact, she had been in talks with Nike for a year to get her own shoe. I have no interest in anything she has to say.
Clark has brought the WNBA back from the dead. There are many outstanding players in the league who should use this opportunity to make the league better.
0:27 Oh the black and white thing is there, Becky Hammon. Sad to say. And you are standing next to the person that said it was a B&W thing. Now you see why people are only watching Caitlin Clark games.
I didn't watch the Chicago bulls because MJ was Black. I watched because he was awesome. I watched him become what he became. The same could be possible with CC. Only time will tell. But until then, I'll be watching CC. Not because she's black or white, but because of what she could become. So many jealous folks out there with a keyboard.
A rising tide lifts all boats. Embrace CC, she already got the league private charters. What’s next? Pay raises? More shared league revenue? No one before her has done a thing.
The person standing next to her laughing the whole time is making Becky a liar. So Becky is supposed to be a leader but allows the girl beside her in the interview to act like that. I dont trust what Becky has to say now.
It’s the media pushing that narrative! The wnba is tough they got different rules as new watchers gotta get to learn their game! They’re all going out to compete it’s gonna get ugly and messy not all the time sometimes tho! 😂 it’s gonna be tough for anyone transitioning and it does get more physical as you progress! Just let these women hoop without looking for a beef!! I’m cool with a rivalry a healthy competitive one! Wish them all the best
Media needs fuel. Sportcenter needs soundbites . Players current and former (WNBA and NBA ) need their 2 cents and likes as well as sports anchors who are desperate for relevancy. Its not going to change so dont give any more info than whats needed.
Thanks Becky Hammon...well said...Caitlyn and her team are playing better with each game. She deserves respect for her almost triple double vs the Sparks.
@@dapopebfrank2265 You can argue she was playing the victim, but you would be hard pressed to make a sound argument for her hating on Clark. All she said in regard to Clark is that part of her popularity is because she is white. Funny thing is that a whole lot of people are up in arms about that, but it almost certainly has some truth to it. Her being white makes what she is doing a bit of novelty that people are latching on to. If a black woman was doing the same thing a lot of people would just ignore it because it's not out of the ordinary.
Caitlin is playing fine. It's the rest of her team that's not. Hard to win games when you don't have much of an inside game due to a lack of a true center. Maybe next year they'll use their first round draft pick to get the best center coming out of college.
Thank you Coach. Well spoken! And Love and Respect from a Fever Fan to The Aces Coaches and Players. Side Note for Media- A Message to Some Media out there, Here is a clear example, of positive feedback from other teams and players, so Media Please just stop stirring up the crap stop the Controversial videos of Slander Garbage that do not exist, and stick with the positive aspects of the game and the players, which we love.
While I agree with what Hammon says, she should probably pay closer attention to what the person standing next to her has been saying.
BINGO! Aja Wilson LITERALLY said thee ONLY reason CC is popular is because she’s white 🤦♀️. What a 🤡
Aja never said nothing
@@WORKSbaby Aja is a loser who is going to be forgotten the second she or Caitlin Clark stops playing, whichever is sooner.

Angel has a lot of black support, as does A'ja, as it should be. Representation matters. They don't hate Caitlin, but I'm sure they have a chip on their shoulders to prove themselves while folks discrediting their skills, and work ethics. They're professional athletes afterall. Bill Russell wanted to make $1,000,001 because Wilt made $1,000,000 while Russell was the MVP. This is the 60's and two black men, athletes are competitive and egotistical by nature.
Did u listen to the interview..no..cause your Aja is not a good person..she's trash she lied the coach lied... defend them all u want ..
@@lilikaramirez1848 that's my point. Calling character into question and saying they're not good people, because they don't like how the hype is painting them and the game as a whole, but are now leaving the conversation on a positive note by giving Caitlin some grace is very shortsighted.
Yes I listened to this interview and read A'ja's previous interview on Clark. Breathe and think bigger picture. Let's not be so quick to call people bad over a disagreement.
Go pull up numbers they did anywhere close to caitlin clark from attendance to ticket sales since they been doing this where's your proof? Cause mine says opposite
@@lilikaramirez1848girl you commenting on everyone post. You know nothing about basketball. Aja is way better than Caitlin and deserves more but because Caitlin is white she’s getting the attention because yall can’t beat us. Aja is saying from the media stand point, espn and y’all children of the corn it’s about race because she’s the top player with 2 championships and mvp. From a player standpoint it’s not about race because the other star players on her team are white.
And how is that on Caitlin. You bunch of idiots bad mouthing a 22 year old kid because she gets attention. Pathetic
“We love Caitlin Clark. Some of my best friends are Caitlin Clark..”
Aja was lying.
Thanks y'all
I love Becky Hammon❤she gave me pair of shoes when I played with her!!
Aja had the chance to clarify her remarks recently, specifically and that would have squashed the haters. Not a black / white thing, not who got the first shoe deal, simply a ton of talented Ladies raising the roof. One other thing, The WNBA pushing equity rather than equal opportunity would make this old, grizzled follower and fan of the WNBA happy! Capitalism is not built on equity, it's built on everyone having the same chances through hard work,
A'ja over there laughing and she called people racist because they like Caitlin, then whined about not getting a shoe deal because people are racist when in fact, she had been in talks with Nike for a year to get her own shoe. I have no interest in anything she has to say.
She was never hateful about it. She supports the rooks. Media generated BS.
Clark has brought the WNBA back from the dead. There are many outstanding players in the league who should use this opportunity to make the league better.
They are sarcastic af LOL
Tell that to your own Clark, coach Becky
Ah dun looked at mah wris...I got time today...oh Becky coming, Becky coming. PRAY!
You ain't me so it's hard to relate! That's all I'm hearing🤣🤣
100% accurate ❤
The hating is not going to break that girl,so she's going to focus more
It's not the breaker, it's just racism!
The media and Caitlin Clark fans put all that pressure on her by calling her the GOAT 😮.
She will be in the hall of fame and they will still be bitching
She is the GOAT 🐐🐐😤😤 2 late 3’s for the win
@@ricorogers9319still clutch stop hating
No one said that. And that’s college
@@ricorogers93198 assists, 10 boards and only 2 TO.
Great answers!
0:27 Oh the black and white thing is there, Becky Hammon. Sad to say. And you are standing next to the person that said it was a B&W thing. Now you see why people are only watching Caitlin Clark games.
I didn't watch the Chicago bulls because MJ was Black. I watched because he was awesome. I watched him become what he became. The same could be possible with CC. Only time will tell. But until then, I'll be watching CC. Not because she's black or white, but because of what she could become. So many jealous folks out there with a keyboard.
Becky Hammon "I don't care if Kermit the Frog made the change". You go Becky! 😂😂😂
You can see the hate behind the words
yessss❤❤❤❤ I am happy someone said it all !!!! Elevate and Embrace all of these women !!
A rising tide lifts all boats. Embrace CC, she already got the league private charters. What’s next? Pay raises? More shared league revenue? No one before her has done a thing.
The person standing next to her laughing the whole time is making Becky a liar. So Becky is supposed to be a leader but allows the girl beside her in the interview to act like that. I dont trust what Becky has to say now.
Perfectly said!
You go girl Becky that's how you roll coach may God bless you
BLESSING..... TO Y'ALL...
A'ja probably figured it out. this is business, not prom.
Finally, someone speaks some sense !!!
Becky from the block always jeeps it a hunnid
BIG GIGANTIC FACTS‼️🖤WNBA💯
It’s the media pushing that narrative! The wnba is tough they got different rules as new watchers gotta get to learn their game! They’re all going out to compete it’s gonna get ugly and messy not all the time sometimes tho! 😂 it’s gonna be tough for anyone transitioning and it does get more physical as you progress! Just let these women hoop without looking for a beef!! I’m cool with a rivalry a healthy competitive one! Wish them all the best
Get a dub get respect
As far as ready to be a professional, the Aces got the most mature, talented, leader and player in Kate Martin.
The fire was already started now they acting like they didn't do anything come on haters 😂
They Hate Us but , they want to be like Us ! Make it make Sense !
Media needs fuel. Sportcenter needs soundbites . Players current and former (WNBA and NBA ) need their 2 cents and likes as well as sports anchors who are desperate for relevancy. Its not going to change so dont give any more info than whats needed.
Thanks Becky Hammon...well said...Caitlyn and her team are playing better with each game. She deserves respect for her almost triple double vs the Sparks.
I think there talking to everyone
The WNBA players are making the noise so I guess ace's coach is not watching the news
She was just hating on clark herself none of them like her and I'm sure they trying to have the 2 Iowa players do they dirty work vs cc
@@dapopebfrank2265 You can argue she was playing the victim, but you would be hard pressed to make a sound argument for her hating on Clark. All she said in regard to Clark is that part of her popularity is because she is white. Funny thing is that a whole lot of people are up in arms about that, but it almost certainly has some truth to it. Her being white makes what she is doing a bit of novelty that people are latching on to. If a black woman was doing the same thing a lot of people would just ignore it because it's not out of the ordinary.
The opening statement is a joke. The real feeling revealed at the last sentence.
Claitin clark vs kate martin❤❤❤ go aces stay humble to ur fans and to ur competitor
well said coach 👏
WNBA is looking extremely ignorant and hateful. If continues on this path it must be held accountable. Hate and toxicity haz zero place.
Every is over it.. Media keep playing this conversation in repeat.. Let move on
Definitely hating. Never seen anyone get hip checked for 0 reasons. And no it wasnt during play
Caitlin is playing fine. It's the rest of her team that's not. Hard to win games when you don't have much of an inside game due to a lack of a true center. Maybe next year they'll use their first round draft pick to get the best center coming out of college.
Whoever Becky Hammon is….never even heard of her. And def a bit of sarcasm.
Thank you Coach. Well spoken! And Love and Respect from a Fever Fan to The Aces Coaches and Players.
Side Note for Media-
A Message to Some Media out there, Here is a clear example, of positive feedback from other teams and players, so Media Please just stop stirring up the crap stop the Controversial videos of Slander Garbage that do not exist, and stick with the positive aspects of the game and the players, which we love.
Bad Actors. no hollywood pedigree
Aja the one bring up race
fr lol the wnba is already doomed. All it is these days is people mentioning race. Just sucks
These people are like listening to middle school kids arguing
Las Vegas Aces fan now.
Becky you are so cool
Media is crazy
Why you guys agree with hating add hamman she didn’t move shit she should be thanking cc
WOW!!! Caitlin is the simple reason! She is - whether you admit it or not! It's so obvious this Becky where she stands... Booo to you Becky!
U go coach tell back off clark let her play
Yall so blind
