- Diana Taurasi FURIOUS at Olympics after Caitlin Clark SHOWS UP & Sue Bird's Controversial Comment
#caitlinclark #basketball #nba #usnews #basketballplayer
WHATS THE ESSENCE OF HAVING THE GOLD MEDAL ON THE BENCH AND WASNT A FACTOR IF UR DUMB BRAIN IS WORKING? JUST ASKING?
All I can say is this SNAFU. This year’s Olympic Games showed the world how corrupt, evil, and demonic these games have become. Athletes having to deal with incompetence, stupidity and religious hatred of Christ our Lord. I just pray that the next Olympic Games at Los Angeles California won’t be like this one.
@@jameskawaikaupejrcwo3usmcr573it won’t.
Taurasi’s sense of entitlement doesn’t allow her to be embarrassed by getting her 6th Gold by riding the bench. It’s all about her, that’s all she sees.
@@jameskawaikaupejrcwo3usmcr573
I hope you realize that Christ Starr Lord is not going to be anywhere near Los Angeles, California
@@varj7 what a noob statement. She played throught the Olympics. You shouldn't exibit your ignorance so freely on YT. She'll be known as a HOFer while your known as a whiny ass noob on YT. What to own DT and those women who won gold in Paris. Congratulations to you and your achievements.
Caitlyn Clark was on the team that beat the Olympic team this year and could do it again so with all due respect, them beating France by one point does not vindicate any thing at all.
It was just pure luck that Team USA escaped defeat from Team France because had Team France shot a 3-point, the game would have gone into overtime and with the momentum in favor of Team France there is a big chance of Team France beating Team USA as TF has fresher, faster legs because of its young roster and shooting superbly in rainbow country.
Exactly. They already lost to a better team. It's a gold with an asterisk. The expectation was gold. They got the job done with luck.
What they needed to do was market the shit out of Angel and CC because their damn playoffs and chip are in the next 2 months. Get some eyes on their league and bring in global fans. And then they will continue to blame everyone but themselves when nobody tunes in watching their playoffs and chip game.
@@marlarucewho was she going to defend, she's a defensive liability
anything under 10 points is a loss
SO TRUE!!!
THE FUNKY TRUTH
There is no reason why a 42 yr old should be in the Olympic squad. Someone like reese or clark couldve taken that spot.
Give it a rest, the Olympics are OVER, and we won, be happy about that.
@mr6688 that mindset is exactly why people continue to ignore the WNBA. The expectation was gold. What the WNBA needed to do was use the Olympics to market the WNBA and get global fans to care about the WNBA.
Imagine playing Clark, angel Reese, Arike Ogunbowale. It would have been so exciting to watch. I looked forward to seeing this younger players in the future. So exciting to watch.
@@cheetah219 Like I said GIVE IT A REST, THE OLYMPICS ARE OVER....IT'S A DONE DEAL, QUIT ACTING LIKE A BITTER WOMAN!
@@mr6688 bro, smoke a bowl, a cig, meditate or have your coffee. Whatever you need to relax, this is not that deep. You're getting worked up over RUclips comments...reflect on yourself before passing judgement. If you're trying to troll, what a sad attempt. Whatever you need to do, I hope your tomorrow is better than today.
Sorry, but this US Olympic team was not dominant!
They didn't lose a single game and every other team lost one or more, that's dominant in anybody's book.
@@mr6688 they got lucky in the finals, they should have lost
@@VictorTrem They won in spite of the refs trying to give the game to France - it's called skill and hard work, not luck!
@@mr6688USA basketball for women’s is way ahead of other countries still, it’s like pitting men’s NBA vs high school players, yet they barely one gold by 1 point. Dominant is winning by 15 to 20 points in most games like the men’s USA team did. FYI exhibition matches don’t count if you wish to point to it for the match with Sudan, men’s USA just underestimated them.
@@mr6688 the us got 34 free-throw attempts compared to frances 13 and without these calls they would have been completely unmatched
Don’t ever forget, Caitlin’s team kick the Olympics teams ass!
She shot like crap in that game
@dalidajoka she got crazy assisting that game. Team USA was guarding her like it was a gold medal game, and she still gets the ball where it needs to go
they were not trying. It was a prep game that's all
@@erichmarusich4697they we’re trying they just couldn’t stop Akine
@@youngking340 She did light it up and is one of the best players but no the game was for preparation and entertainment. No one plays all out in an all star game. Next Olympics the younger ladies will be there with the vets. Go USA!
Under no circumstances should Brittney Griner be chosen to be on anything USA.
No kidding
Should be exiled from our great country to 3rd world country where she can learn how great it is to be here!!
🎯💯 truly disgraceful
And why
should be in a russian prison !! and a man !!
I don’t watch the WNBA, but I love watching Caitlin Clark!!!
Imagine the money the WNBA could've made on merch if Caitlin was on Team USA!
Yep!! TV viewing for WUSA was greater for the Tokyo Olympics than for this one.
The WUSA sent a clown coach & some broken down clowns to Paris. Showing us more & more why the WNBA loses money each year. They're stuck in the past, and proud of it!!
If you didn't like the close exciting gold metal game then you don't actually like basketball.
@@ipleedafif8033 medal
For sure, I would of liked to buy a USA jersewy with Caitlin's name on it.
@@ipleedafif8033 medal
I would not watch WNBA game unless Caitlin Clark is playing, period..
Weird, you must not actually like the game? 😄
@@MrMsLoveLee I love watching basketball, the problem is the HATERS, and the JEALOUSY that’s going on,, this is a sport and sportsmanship is taught in very beginning, now tell me, the way they treat Caitlin, is that part of the sport?🤷🤷🤷🏽♂️
Why waste time watching a game if it’s not fun? even though you love the sport of basketball🤦🏻♂️ makes no sense. When CC plays it is fun.
Well you just a fan of Clark not the W
@@efrenioaguilar8469That makes you an obsessed stalker fan, not a fan of women's basketball. You a straight up weirdo!
A lot of people losing their minds over Caitlin Clark , I come from Scotland and I never before watched WBA but have and will watch Caitlin who is so special a player
Dianasaur Taurasi & criminal Brittney Griner had no business being on this team... Chelsea Gray should have been left at home, too.
Arike, Clark & Reese should have been on this team. The stats show us this.
But Criminal Trump should be President. Who cares they have gold and she doesn't have a ring or gold championship 😂
Dianasaur Taurasi!!! Hahahaha 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Great one!!! 👍 👍 😃
They won by one point instead of winning by 30. That’s it really.
reality is the Olympic games are alot more physical than the WNBA and with Clark leading the league in turnovers by a bunch I wonder how many she would have had if she would have been there??
Team USA lost to 1 team this year. Team WNBA
The disgust which new viewers of the WNBA, brought in by Caitlin Clark, feel towards the old timers on the Olympic team...is indescribable. The legacies of people like Taurasi, for us the new viewers, are forever tainted. She will be, to us, forever the worn out old lady who refused to stand down and let Caitlin Clark get what Taurasi herself got 20 years ago---a chance to play in the Olympics in her rookie year. For that alone, Taurasi's character is stained for all time. What a nasty old timer, who should have quit while she was ahead. It makes a lot of us sick even to hear her name. And all the rest of the old guard huddling around her and defending this year's Olympic selection---just a bunch of old hacks more interested in covering each other's asses than in fielding the most REPRESENTATIVE Olympic team possible. The U.S. team did not WIN that Gold, France lost it, by a couple inches when Gabby's foot slipped forward. In overtime, the worn out old ladies on the U.S. team would never have kept up with the French team's hustle. No way. Pffft.
Only team with 12 WNBA “ professional “ players, wins gold by half a foot, has the lowest turnout and viewership of any team , and they think they done good. This should have been a wake up. Any “professional “ would have said we need to up our game, put our head down and get to work and keep our mouths shut.
I love how they were celebrating like they blew Frane out of the water instead of winning by 1 point…. 1 point…. That’s not dominant, that’s luck
It isn’t what is is. It’s not just the United States fans that were upset. It was the world that wanted to see the greatest college players to step on the court. It’s shameful that the world did not get a chance to see who will be without question one of the greats if not the greatest player in the WNBA. It was a snub by the WNBA over jealousy & a snub to the entire world not allowing Clark to play. With Clark there arenas would have been sold out and vendors would have made more money they’ve ever had selling just jerseys alone! Jealousy is a destructive powerful shameful emotion that reflects the league who has never made any money in the entire history of the league. First time I’ve ever watched a women’s basketball game and wasn’t disappointed as Clark dropped 40 on LSU. And let Reese know where she can put that finger now who’s rebounding is equal to her missed shots-from under the basket. If she wants to talk the talk she needs to try practicing to improve her 3 ft range! & walk the walk A one dimensional player who’s the most jealous of them all! A guaranteed risk for any long term contract!
So many new viewers is definitely because of CC. I have never watched basketball, but now I love watching CC.
When his eyes were looking up and not into the camera means he was lying to me.
They won gold, barely. But where was the attendance, endorsements, and excitement? Missed global opportunity. And then the drama. Gimme a break!
CC couldn't be on the Olympic team because all those vets' egos couldn't handle it. Who was going to keep the bench warm if Taurasi didn't go?
She hasn't complained about so why are you?
@ipleedafif8033 Just cause she publicly didn't say anything, you think she is cool with a bunch of has beens representing the US when you know they are nowhere near the best players?
@@pasqualeminichillojr831 you're projecting your own victimhood personality onto Clark in public. It's not something one doubles down on.
@ipleedafif8033 Sure, guy. Who cares if the US team looked tired and weak and won by creating free throw situations cause they can't execute points in the actual game. They still won by a point. Your happy with that type of team, that's cool. I'm sure Taurasi and these vets aren't posting pics of themselves with the gold like normal athletes do. Probably cause their so humble. Lmao
@@pasqualeminichillojr831 this isn't really about the US women's basketball team. A win is still a win, no matter what your opinions are. That is a fact. They made history, no matter if it's by 1 point or 100. No matter how much you whine and cry in public, it still doesn't change the fact that they are winners and you're a loser whining on YT. So what's going on in your life that you have to exibit your loser mentality for all to see on YT? DT is a legend and will be in the basketball HOF while you cry on YT. Only noobs who just started watching basketball would say what you said. If that exciting gold metal game doesn't make you like basketball then basketball might not be the sport for you to watch. Maybe you should take up crocheting or flower arranging, painting or something more your speed.
Caitlin Clark is ranked 1 in Assists by a mile
And turnovers
@@dalidajoka Look at NBA turnover leaders each year. Magic Johnson, Isiah Thomas, Charles Barkely, Shaq, Jason Kidd, Allen Iverson, John Stockton, Steve Nash, Luka, Harden. All Time Turnover leader - Lebron. The person that leads league in turnovers typically is biggest playmaker and has the ball the most
Easy
Tarausi
Griner
Grey
The Aces don't need to have four fuckin players on the team
It's only 12 teams
Damn
@@cmac1573 this is a prime example of what moving the goalposts looks like... Since college she has been lauded over her scoring and shooting almost half court 3s, now that she's ranked 37th in 3 point percentage with 32%... now all of a sudden it's about assist. It's amazing how you dudes only want to talk about stats that it benefits your argument. I can guarantee if it was any other players not named Clark you wouldn't have any issues mentioning their turnovers, if they had a low shooting percentage or a defensive liability
@@dalidajokabut, but she's WHITE and STRAIGHT n y'all can't have that!!! It would appear that most network sports commentators subscribe to a "LIBERAL" agenda (probably because their bosses require them to) whereas most sports FOLLOWERS/VIEWERS do NOT. All who are interested in sports don't give a rat's behind what the athlete's political leanings are, all that is of interest is the athlete's TALENT and political leanings be DAMNED!!!
Caitlin Clark’s absence shakes Team USA-this could unravel their legacy in women’s basketball
Dianasaur's legacy now has THREE Olympic TRIPLE ZEROS!!! And a giant sh$# stain on it where her jealousy and selfishness turned her into a crusty gatekeeping hag.
She's a snake too, being friendly in person to Caitlin, but stabbing her in the back w/ Coach Reeves & the Olympic clown committee.
To late for that the wnba has no legacy but now with clark it's starting all the slow moving dinosaurs must leave the league
Yep she should’ve been on the team!!!! 100% ….
Clark plays the Great Canadian Game of Basketball so well. 🇨🇦
Huge Basketball IQ too.
"The great Canadian game of basketball" as you like to call it is a bit of a st😅reeeeeeeeetch. The man who invented the game was FROM Canada? YES. The man was living in the USA? YES. Was he teaching physical education in the USA? YES. Was he teaching at a YMCA in the USA? YES. Did he eventually become a Citizen of the USA? YES!
I'm sorry, explain to me how BB is a Canadian game other than you'd love to be able to say it. If he was a Canadian living in, say, Montreal and invented BB while teaching PhysEd at a YMCA in Montreal, would you Bb was a great French game? Time for a reality check. It's like saying PEANUT BUTTER was a great African invention - let's forget that he lived in the USA, shall we? Besides, most Canadians were from GB, Ireland, Scotland, Wales or somewhere other than Canada because Canada, like the USA, Mexico, Central America and South America is made up of immigrants. Even your so-called indigenous people immigrated from Asia thousands of years ago. At one time, there were NO HUMANS living in the Americas, just animals. No charge for the history lesson, eh? 😊
@@billko9201 And by the way Genius, Montreal is in Canada and is a city in the province of Quebec, which has zero to do with the country of France.
Even their French language is very different from France.
My God, it’s truly scary how uneducated you people are….no wonder you’re all so low on the global education rankings.
You should really stop embarrassing yourself and the USA for that matter.
These talking heads are nothing but fools! The United States sent it’s second best team to the Olympics and they almost lost!
But it was worth it so Taurasi could get her participation award.........🙄
It never was about them winning the gold without her.
USA women's team was lucky to win gold. They needed someone like Stephen Curry to keep France at a distance on the 4th quarter... oh wait Caitlyn Clark is the women's Stephen Curry, where was she??? someone?
The selection committee and the coach thinks the selfish old greedy Dinausor Tauraci is better than Clark.
Caitlin Clark was left off from the USAB womens Olympic team due to politics, same with USAB mens.
It was one of the biggest mistakes for a league that’s never made any profit in its history & a snub to the whole world where thousands would have filled thousands of more seats to see the rookie sensation. They must reevaluate the hierarchy of the league & decision makers process who used her to fill seats busting attendance records but again letting the World down blowing a golden opportunity to see her-oh the money and influence they flushed down the toilet!
If Taurasi is the best player, why did she only score 3 points and why was she benched. wnba is terrible
NO VINDICATION by winning gold. They screwed up by not inviting the most popular female basketball icon ever. Raise the sport, raise the interest, raise the league by including Clark. They've won gold medals before BUT STILL very few watch women's basketball. Why? Poor management like this snub against Clark.
Yeah with the least amount of fans for there games
We don’t give 2 shits about the USA team -
Not even one....
They were not dominant. The worst thing to happen to USA basketball was winning against France.
lol they play against weaker teams 😂 even before they left US they were going to win the gold. But the reason CC SHOULD have been on the team is coz of MARKETING AND MAKING MORE MONEY FOR THE WMBA 😂 women will cut their own nose to spite their face coz not including CC is poor business decision and done coz of petty jealousy and just greedy lol for a 8th gold medal 🤦🏻♀️. Like this is an INTERNATIONAL STAGE to promote your organization and this girl had the popularity RIGHT NOW to draw in audience and journalist and sponsors and networks deals world wide. Like you could have seen which country internationally would like to televise games have international games to make more money for your entire group. When would women stop doing this to other women.
Gold by one point, and one guy. Go woke , go broke!!
Dumb republican
Caitlin Clark is the GOAT OF THE WNBA PERIOD
Absolutely… she will be … she’s already broken records in her rookie year… wait until she’s got 3-4 more years under her belt… epic
She is the GOAT NOW.
@@luischavez2701No mate, not yet 😂 Rossi is the best
8 in a row? That cements the idea that we should not send our professionals. We should send a team that is picked from the Final Four teams. Strictly amateur only. That is the whole original idea behind the Olympics, is amateur athletes ONLY. NO PROFESSIONALS. Same goes with the men.
I totally agree. Just think if our collegiate athletes were submitted to the same standards as the World National Teams it would be something to consider. Especially since the world know how to play the game.
Exactly!! Thank you for bringing that up!!

They won, it's all that matters
They wouldn't have won if that foul had have been called and everyone know which one
@@mr6688 actually no it’s not all that matters, the Olympics are a global draw, it’s big money for advertisers, networks and sports in general. Advertising, marketing and viewship leads to more opportunities, they missed the boat. If you want to tell the world you are the best you bring your A game, they didn’t. This will always be the could’ve, should’ve olympics, the B team.
@@mr6688No its not, when you say you can obliterate Any team,and your barely win. When you say evert player is the Best, and the one leading Them turasi, has to be benched, cause shes so bad, she would lose The game for Them.
@@jcar1417 Hypotheticals are not reality, what a bizarre way you have of looking at life, it's downright weird!
Olympics from hell.
The roster should be created by what you’re doing now, not by your past accomplishments.
Why do I care about the opinions from people who don't know definition of a woman, and think it's okay for men to play women's sports?
Diana Tourasi has achieved her goal, to keep Clark out of the Olympics so that he cannot take the medal record from her. We have to look a little further, it is for no other reason. The evil is palpable in a woman who did not play a single minute in the final.
People accuse Reese of stat padding, Taurasi is medal padding.
First time in my 80😊 years of life that I find myself caring nothing about a USA team winning gold! I want to see Caitlin Clark basketball. I just purchased a Caitlin Clark basketball costing me $1000. I’ve never spent that kind of money for anything in any of the sports here in American! NO REGRETS BABY!
So true 👍 that old 42 years old didn't have to go to Paris period matter fact 3 rookies could of went to Paris
The argument is not the winning the gold medal with Clark. Its what was lost in revenue and marketing for future growth! It’s time now for the Olympic team to turn over their gold medals to the WNBA Allstar Team who beat the USA hands down. So the greatest team is not the Olympic team but rather the Allstar team. Done!
Taurasi &Gray contributed very little to the competition of the Olympics. They did a great job as benchwarmers
I’m proud that the Australian Olympic Women’s Basketball Team were all XX Real Aussie Woman. 🇦🇺 CC You Go Girl
Yeah, there’s two people on that team should not have been there. We know that and you know that so don’t shoot your BS to us. It’s so lucky they won by one point DT was finished before she went there that’s why she was benched and you all know that Kaitlyn Carter already kicked her butt remember
It's not that they won, it's about how they couldn't beat the All-Star team and barely won gold. Jealousy will be the end of the WNBA.
Clarke deserved to be on the team. She should have been on the team. It would have been good for women’s basketball. No it would have been outstanding for women’s basketball. Why she was not in the team is the real issue?
The conversation should be why take people who didnt play or could not play for a free ride. NBA spent 15 million dollars on the trip so anybody could have
gone, not just because someone could win possibly her sixth medal. It didnt have to be Clark, but so many other people where not given the opportunity
From what I've seen, the only reasonable explanation is this: 1) Caitlin is a great point guard who has been groomed to direct the offense, and she obviously can direct the offense, but only if her teammates are willing to submit to it; and, 2) you have a bunch of older veterans who resent the fact that they had to come up the hard way, Caitlin's a rookie, and Caitlin's getting paid more than them with her endorsements, etc., which creates friction if not animosity from the older players, and the coaching staff already had enough to deal with - they did not want to manage that issue along with all the others. It's a natural human reaction which in a way constitutes incredible respect for Caitlin. She will have her own multiple gold medals, on that we can rest assured, but I can see why she wasn't chosen. It wasn't fair, but that's life, and I think it's being blown out of proportion by the media for its own self-interest.
That dude punked out here
There’s absolutely no vindication. Who on earth thought the US would lose with or without Caitlyn? And who on earth thought the US would only win by 1 point. They got the gold, but this is a loss in the bigger picture.
It’s a joke and they’re all gonna pay
I’m a black man and I would rather see kalen Clark and Angel reason any other player in the WNBA
THe women's Olympic basketball team was just darn lucky to beat France. The powers that be must have breathed a huge sign of relief. Had they lost, the Caitlin Clark issue would have been even more controversial. I think Clark should have been on the team and Diana Taurasi should have been left home. Taurasi's poor Olympic play confirmed it. Taurasi has had a Hall of Fame career but her time has come. Besides, she already has multiple Olympic Gold Medals. Caitlin Clark should have been on the team. Angel Reese should also have been on the Olympic team.
That's one stupid reason not to have her on the team. That's one dumb brother.
Caitlyn would’ve contributed more than Taurasi on the court. Plus, her presence would’ve tripled the views, bringing more eyes to the WNBA. This BS about rookies needing to prove themselves is crap. The following made the Olympic team as rookies: Rebecca Lobo (1996), Chamique Holdsclaw (2000), Diana Taurasi (2004), Candace Parker (2008), Breanna Stewart (2016) and A’ja Wilson (2021). Taurasi’s ass should’ve stayed home.
So Sue Bird is a member of the USAB selection committee which were so blind in judging the right players for the team. I never agree with her dumb answer, she is a player but we can clearly see that Sue Bird doesn’t like Caitlin ang got jealous. Sue Bird is too small to match Caitlin if the have of same age and meet in WNBA league. The bad thing is that they did not meet as she will be torched by Caitlin like Diana Taurasi on their last game.😂😂😂
Old, can't score, *🏅, dinosaur legacy pick selected over CC to go to the Olympics. Sad.
DT is still a good player even at 42. I think she paid her dues, and this Olympics was a way to thank her for her service. She now has 5 Gold Medals. That's hard to do for any Olympian. I don't feel bad for Caitlin. I feel sad for the WNBA, which kind of shot itself in the foot in terms of having a golden opportunity [pun intended] of taking their league to the rest of the world on the biggest stage. Caitlin is just getting started, and I don't see how she won't be one of the greatest GOAT of the WNBA. She's our Golden Girl, for sure. I'm not sure she'll be able to last as long as the original iron-maiden Diana T and get 5 Gold Medals because the rest of the planet is starting to catch up slowly but surely. And THAT is actually a good thing for competition and good for getting world-wide attention for the women's game. EVERYBODY will want to see Caitlin light up the nets from the logo! Now that the Olympic Games have ended, we can relax and ride the Caitlin wave for a few more seasons, and pray to God that she doesn't ever have a debilitating injury. She's tough and I think she's also physically durable, as she is also proficient in several sports. No more Taurasi-bashing, OK. Just a whole lot of Caitlin Fan Fever [see how I did that]!

FROM GUAM, WE LOVE CLARK!! THE BEST THING EVER WILL BE, CLARK WILL BE VISITING THE WHITEHOUSE SOON. AMEN.
Taurasi was able to stick it to Clarke and bird with her 6th gold medal. Bird stopped at her 5th and Taurasi
will be know forever as the only 6 gold medal winner in U.S. basketball.
Caitlin is worth every million she earns , totally on another level to every other WNBA player .
If Derrick White can be on the men's team, Catlin Clark can be left off the Woman's Team.
Catlin Clark draws audiences by big numbers ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Team USA won gold that only for 1 point which im not satisfied.Thats the reason many are furious of team USA womens basketball bcoz of that 1 point lead only.If Caitlyn Clark is there it will not be the result,it will have a lead like 10 points or 15 points.
The ENTIRE WNBA management group involved with selection of Team USA's NWBBT should be disbanded, never to be heard or seen from again! Also, NBC should axe whoever allowed those persons concern with Team USA to work another Olympics! NBC had the job to present the best team both as a sport and as entertainment. Gray, Griner, and DT were horrible choices and should have been replaced with Arike, Angel, and Caitlin!
If Catlin Clark was on the team the audience would be a lot better ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I wonder how much Sue Birds ass hurts from sitting on the fence like that. And I thought Sue and Caitlin were friends. With friends like that, who needs Taurasi? I want so badly for CC22 to get payback on all these jealous beeches.
Sue Bird & DT are snakes. Don't be fooled. Same for Dawn Staley & Sheryl Swoopes...
TRIFLING.
Caitlin Clark should have been on the Olympic. No question. End of discussion.
I've never heard so much bitterness about Team USA winning a gold medal, some of y'all are just weird.
Diana Tarausi should not have been on that USA team... Her and some other people also
A rookie in the top 20 ,a better guard then Kelsy plum
The WNBA's attendance would be close to the same as it did if Caitlin was on it. Let's remember, the games were in France. The attendance in LA is for sure going to hammer those attendance numbers in France. The WNBA does not have as much reach overseas as it does here.
How come no one has bothered to find out who it comes down to the theree or. ,competition at all-star decision to leave her out. No excuse!
Diana is destroying her legacy with her late demeanor.
The convention should be did they grow the sport.
Thank you USA womens BB Team! C.C> is so rested now, she is going to break records every game now! unleashed a Monster!
Dianna Taurasi didn’t even play. She was injured before she went
The Big Plan is they will not change the Roster for the next Olympics 2028.😂😂😂😂
Oooooo, imagine USA winning olympic gold in basketball, you know, the sport that is so prevalent throughout the rest of the world.
Our women's Olympic basketball team was awesome. CC needed the rest anyway.
The WNBA is struggling to reach a wider audience, they are actually losing money for years now. They could have reached more people by using the olympics as a catalyst of that process. Also, they won by a point and struggled from 3s. I mean 2/12 in the closing game? That's too close for comfort. They could have used some marksmanship from CC, and that's not all she does, she can pass and make plays too. Vets are just gatekeeping against their own sake.
The WNBA All-star team made it quite clear the US sent the B-Team to the Olympics this year, as well as the last Olympics when Team USA took a drubbing before their send off to seek the gold.
The biggest mistake is that they should have put her on the team just for viewing and tv shows a lot of money was lost here
When was the last time, a Clark team scored UNDER 70 pts?
CC wasn't the only good player snubbed. Angel Reese is the top small forward and is a walking double double and we all forgot about what Arike Ogunbowale did to the Olympic team. She gave them a 34 piece nugget in the 2nd half.
Undeserved gold metal win. Really one point ? 🙄
When I see Taurosi's name or see her pic from now on. Instead of thinking "Wow, what a great player," I'll forever think "Damn, her EGO nearly cost us the gold in 2024. She should have known when to fold 'em!"
So they are pissed a young woman came to cheer them on?
Another "what if" could be: What if Clark was in that USA team and they lost to France???
Too bad it’s taken you all season to realize what CC really has to offer the league and the money that is coming in!! Sometimes when you say something the damaged is done and your ridiculous praise comments now doesn’t make everything ok! The great thing is Caitlin is so professional that she’s not letting things get to her, she’s the best!!!!
They won by one point yes, one point what a disgrace
The type player I would want on my team is someone willing if not EAGER to point to other players as standouts above my own play. Hearing Caitlin speak out LOUD for Arike's play as most important during the 2024 All Star game. One other thought is to question why video makers on You Tube continually show film of CC playing in her Iowa jersey. Jeez, don't you think even Caitlin wants to be seen in her new Fever jersey???
Taurasi was on the US team as a rookie, and Clark's college numbers are better.
So "she's a rookie" doesn't work.
IF the reasons are
a) we don't feel like switching the roster at this point
b) we'd have to find a new rhythm w her, and
c) some women won't be back but Clark will have many shots...
...then just tell us that.
I'm finally watching WNBA (highlights) for CC. Never had an interest before CC.
