Caitlin Clark ASKED The Fever To Sign Sydney Colson as her Backup... In this video we are going to be talking about Caitlin Clark, the number 1 pick in the WNBA draft and how she is ready to take over the WNBA. In this video we are going to be talking about the WNBA. THe league is growing with Caitlin Clark, Angel Reese, Cameron Brink, Diana Taurasi, Breanna Steward and A'Ja Wilson who have all been incredible
BBALL Daily:
THe basketball youtube channel of the well known NBA 2k youtuber DBG. This channel is ran by a former Irish international and former Irish Superleague basketball player who also has won multiple national titles as a coach at both the high school and collegiate level in Ireland. this channel will talk about nba news, nba stories as well as basketball news from all over the world
CC feeling confident in her backup is 100% the most important part of protecting her health and making her willing to leave the floor in tight games. You could see all last season that she absolutely did not want to leave the floor even when she was spent.
That is so true! Images are flashing through my mind right now.
If Samuelson wouldn’t protect Clark what makes you think Cunningham will? The only one that really had her back was Lexi Hall. I think it’ll be a lot of people running towards her to pick her up off the floor, but I don’t think anybody will step between her and another player other than Lexi Hall.
I don't think Cc told the Fever to cut Grace. I think that had to be done and it was done by Krauskopf and Cox. Kelly, Amber and Stephanie said early on they wanted vets with championship experience that fit their culture. In the 4th quarter of a big game, I would rather have Colson than Berger. I wish Grace all the best.
Rumour is that Lynx will pick up Grace Berger.
Agreed. It's highly doubtful Caitlin just said cut Berger. If anything, I just think they did it as a necessary evil. Plus, this gives Berger a chance to grow her game more with the Lynx.
$200 K for Wheeler vs $90k for Colson ? Sounds like a no brainer .
Colson evidently she is a shutdown defensive specialist and very effective 3 point shooter
Wheeler has way more skills than Colson Colson only scores two points no rebounds no assists. Basically wasted space other than she’s a good teammate and funny.
Wheeler is a free agent with no contract and almost certainly will get signed by someone, if she gets signed at all, at the veteran's minimum, as with Coulson. Either the Fever didn't want Erica back for some reason, or they think Coulson has more to offer.
Colson is a different style player than Wheeler. Erica is a dribbler who likes to run half court offense and is a liability on defense.
Sydney is a defensively-minded player who is versatile with her offensive style. That’s all not to mention the difference in championship experience: Sydney has two WNBA chips and also an NCAA chip (with Texas A&M, of all teams)!
@ save that one positive in Colson‘s favor is her contract. What is it 96,000 or something that puts the Indiana fever over the cap. So either way Erica Wheeler is going.
If Caitlin Clark has confidence in her back-up, she will be willing to rest more during games which will help keep her sharper down the stretch.
exactly! it's all about trust with CC.
That's what I'm really hoping happens. Playing heavy minutes every game can affect your shot late in the game.
It will still be hard to sit CC. She has always been that way. Lol "I love to sprint"
@@JeanYoder-m8l True.
Sydney Colson could sub for both Caitlin Clark and Kelsey Mitchell. It's a perfect fit. And that will give her more minutes and Caitlin can get some rest time because Caitlin sometimes had to play full 40mins and in one game she played full 45mins coz of OT. If Caitlin went to the bench the scoring stopped and it was a problem.
Why does this surprise you, Mick? CC just wants to win. She is in the mold of Tom Brady and Michael Jordan, willing to get paid a lot less than they are worth, just to win titles!
Respect to Kelsey Mitchell and Kate Martin for working on this behind the scenes. I just recently heard about Athletes Unlimited. Nice outfit. As you say, they seem to have their role.
I’m not surprised CC said positive things about anyone. Can you ever find one time she’s said something negative about another player? It’s not her style. At the very least, the Fever ran the Colson decision by Clark first and she was cool with it.
I don’t think people are getting it yet. If you just ignore the stupid/rude things people say and do, they tend to go away.
If Sydney has Twitter fingers AND is on the Fever trying to get a championship, she’s going to bat for Clark and the rest of the team. Fever is a powerful team now. These new players get it. Drama is for people with no motion.
She said bad things in private. At the last Fever-Sky game she said she wanted to punch Diamond De Shields in the face.
Fever team do not want to be spotlighted on social media Sydney has Twitter fingers and it's going to start a lot of discussions on Twitter it'll be fighting back-and-forth and it's gonna get ugly she needs to stay off of social media and she's a clown
@@Mellowyellow3 Not necessarily true. You know who else had the occasional back-and-forth on social media and it ended up not mattering or impacting the team at all? Wheeler.
@@anthonypuccetti8779 after getting knocked hard to the floor yea I would too. The welcome to the WNBA moment started to get old.
@@Mellowyellow3 that's probably main reason Smith got the 👢. Carrington was never gonna let peace reign
Grace Berger was gone either way as they were looking for vets. The front office probably went to Caitlin Clark after they waved Grace Berger and mentioned they're looking at Sydney Colson and CC gave her approval.
Kate Martin was one of my favs at Hawkeyes. I will watch any team she's on. She's a great player and a good person. Perfect combo.🫶⛹️♀️🏀
The Kate Martin Effect
I bet she would blush.
Not just a backup. CC wants her to play alongside when they go small ball.
That may be true
Think you’ll see CC and her playing alongside each other to give Kelsey a rest.
Syd heard some good things about Caitlin Clark from her Aces teammate Kate Martin... well, she certainly didn't hear anything good from A'ja Wilson about CC! 😂
They cut their youth-a 6’1” guard with length-so they could sign a good-natured career 36 year old bench player for 20 grand more.
Shrewd.
After her rookie year experience, Caitlin Clark now would like to raise the level of Indiana Fever's game. Although Grace Berger is really a good back up point guard for Caitlin Clark, the stark reality is Berger lacks the experience specially on the winning championships after grueling play-offs. Such deficiency can be filled up to a tee by Sydney Coulson provided she wants to play with Indiana Fever and Caitlin Clark. By choosing Indiana Fever and Caitlin Clark as her destination in her free agency, Sydney Coulson's entry is a fit. Good luck to Grace Berger and her time would come in the future.
It is invaluable to have a dependable energetic backup at all times
Kate Martin the true power broker of the W. Thinking instead of going into coaching after her career as she stated. She may become a sports agent. Those Iowa players play the game on the court and off. Good luck to the rest of you. 😂
The first video I saw of Coach Colson I saw it. #1 is about D too. She schools everytime on to floor.
Mick thanks for playing this AU clip! I was looking for it
Excellent move for the Fever to sign Sydney Colson.
I doubt CC had as much to do with players being moved around as some think. Theres enough practice and game tape on the players to see who actually played well, practiced hard and worked on their position play on their own, as well as to see who just showed up for practices and did the bare minimum to get by don’t you think?
Mick, you have pointed out that no true centers are available for the Fever, true centers are few and far between in the WNBA. The fever have to look for free agents, most likely overseas, it may take awhile but it should remain the main goal for the Fever.
Grace won't see the floor much in Minnesota either
I remember when it was round 8k subscribers keep rocking
So Martin and Caitlin Clark decisions in that one❤
Not eleven, just 9. You are forgetting that Wallace will not play a minute. And Samuelson is terrible!
If you didn’t see Caitlin say it, you shouldn’t say she said it!!!
Well Collin is the face of the league 😅😂🎉
That article is just twisting words if someone asked CC about Colson being on her team she might've said oh that would be nice and they turned that into her asking for Sydney to be on her team
😂😂😂Mick just made up something
Speed. When Colson subs in, the defense cannot rest.
I think Erica wheeler will end up in that new podcast office in 2027 when it's done being built
❤❤I told you people 5000 times I must say it one more time Caitlin Clark runs Indiana and Iowa❤❤ and we loving it😂😂🎉❤
I doubt they protected Katie Lou. I believe the Valkyries just chose Temi over Katie Lou honestly.
@@thewolfofwallstreet627 nobody wants Katie. Wish she would bow out but that ain't happening.
@karencarlisle2887 if I was the Fever, I'd trade Katie Lou to the Valkyries and offer them both my 19th and 20th pick, along with a first round pick next year just to get rid of her.
Here is the RUclips show Syd and TP did called Faces of the Leage which is where that came from: This will give all you need to know about Colson: ruclips.net/video/ewZgejpgm8k/видео.html
I bet cc takes the minimum when she can to fill out team. She doesn't need the money. Also Erica wheeler has a pod w kelsi mitchell on it.
She will probably take less than the Max when the time comes just like Stewie has done. I don't know about the minimum though. I think Kelly and Amber will ask her to take a certain number that fits their plan. Maybe the same with Boston as well.
I doubt the players union would allow CC to take a minimum contract anyway
@@MayorB227 The WNBPA doesn't get a say.
She didn’t want syd guarding her
Clark told fever to sign colson because after all colson is old and won't mind sitting half the season on the bench like she did at aces.
Is Sydney Colson to Caitlin Clark the new… Russell Westbrook to Nikola Jokiċ?
Colson will back up Caitlin but Caitlin will back up Kelsey and Colson will play the one
Lol
Nah, Grace Berger was a THREAT. She was the hometown hero. I am sure thst played some role in her being gone
I WONDER, CC & KATE MARTIN TALK ALMOST EVERYDAY, MAYBE KATE TALKED COLSON UP TO CC AND THAT'S WHERE THE IDEA CAME FROM, WHO KNOWS, BUT IF CC IS HAPPY I WISH COLSON ALL THE BEST!!!
its real simple Wheeler thinks she's somebody and she's not. She's a bench player simple as that. Colson knows her role she knows she's 5-10min max a game. Clark wants to play 30-35 min a game she just needs the breather player to come in then go back to the bench.
They need to get Dominic malonga
We dont know the context of that statement. I doubt Clark said Berger and Wheeler stink get me Sydney Colson. The team wanted veterans and needed one affordsble for the 5-8 minutes a back up to Clark will get. What that statement likely means is thats the Fever told Clark we are bringing in a veteran for a back up PG and here is the list of free agents do you have an opnion.
As Jimbones just mentioned .. "play alongside" of Caitlin .. I think that's a big deal. Yes, .. & glad that Kelsey's here .. and I still don't understand the thing about Grace. But, having the 2nd guard, behaving and acting as the point guard, too .. that's not just double trouble, it's more than that.
Wow .. Grace ending up with the Lynx? .. hehe, .. IF so, that would be great.
if only this guy had the script of the topic because he just waffles on . says so much without really saying anytime to drag out 8 minute videos
CC wants to not have a energy down time in mid season ,like rookie years🤔
Erica wheeler needs to start in coaching now she is right there and pass on her mind set
I am wondering if this has just been said to the press to squash the negativity about SC’s tweet and her toxic agent?
Dear CC, please put in a good word for Lucy Olsen.
Samuelson will go to Sky or Valkyries.
Let's speak that into existence
Big Fan are you in Miami I think you said, if you're coming to Orlando would love to take you out for dinner. Not sure your plans.
11 is enough. at least she picks someone who shouldn't be toxic. probably why she was picked. I have been saying she is not very good but I could be wrong.
Caitlin shuts up the doubters...the heroine steps in to silent to media.
Smart move by the fever
❤They are lucky that Clark likes them otherwise I don't know what they've been chosen I believe they asked her first then they make decisions😂❤
Don't they get a draft pick
No dhe didnt only levron would do something like thst clark just plays ball
Catlin will sign off and have a say on any player like kobe and Jordan did
Michael Jordan never got a say in personnel moves, though. Both Jerry Krause and Reinsdorf laughed every time Michael even requested a personnel move for the team.
@@thewolfofwallstreet627 yea it was different back in the 80s/ early 90s
The aces just posted a thank you to Syd Colson!!
m.ruclips.net/video/shUBPqpwp18/видео.html
Shows that Erica Wheeler maybe did not Support Caitlin as much as she wanted Fans to think. When they shared the floor Wheeler almost never passed the ball to Caitlin.
Or Wheeler just wasn’t a good fit, her style is completely different than Clark. Colson is a spark plug type of player, perfect for this team.
Did you never watch a game? Wheeler was the Fever’s #1 fan all season long. Her bench celebrations were top notch.
@@Phlibbertybut her floor time HABIT of ignoring Caitlyn killed scoring every time. Why she's out.
I think Wheeler early on was just carrying out Sides's directions. And Sides's coaching was responsible for the Fever's terrible half court offense leading to the players standing around or dribbling.
Back up center
Katy Lou to the Valkyries to open up cap space for a young big. Use draft picks on overseas players who don't impact bottom line unless and until you bring them in.
bullshit
Nah, we had Grace and she was young. I might become a Lynx fan, haha
Same here, pal! I'm beginning to seriously think that everything around Caitlin Clark's public persona is fake.
Fake why? For wanting to win? Grace leaving indiana was best for her, she might have more playing time lol. So again why fake?@WeileeTheOne
@@WeileeTheOne Caitlin wants to win. Not her fault she hasn't developed. Seems as if u r fine with them losing as long as a non factor like Grace remains on the team. Bye
Where are you getting these TMZ information
Can’t players renegotiate their contracts like in other leagues? If so, couldn’t KLS renegotiate down?
No, contracts are locked in and not negotiable.
What is the source of your confirmation that CC had anything to do with your notion that she had anything to do with it? C'mon Mick!
It's n an article. Seen it on a couple of channels. She wanted Syd
So, a reporter by the name of Tony East reported that Kate Martin really liked Colson. He tells reports that she tells CC about her and that CC says that she hopes she signs with the Fever, and THAT becomes our point of reference? 😮#$%@!😂
@Nancy-uj8dq I believe Syd reached out to Kate and to her good friend Kelsey Mitchell and inquired about Clark as well. Apparently Clark had respect for Syd and could trust her as her back up rather than Grace.
I still want to draft Olsen or HVL even if we dont have room. We can always just sign 'em to rookie contracts when room is made.
Many of us have to work hard Mick. Why mention you do as well? Anyway, keep the content coming. Enjoy your perspective.
LeCaitlin Clark
you getting chubby Mick I know you are pushing content but lets get back active
Did Caitlin get rid of Grace Berger for Sydney?
I don't think Cc told the Fever to cut Grace. I think that had to be done and it was done by Krauskopf and Cox. Kelly, Amber and Stephanie said early on they wanted vets with championship experience that fit their culture. In the 4th quarter of a big game, I would rather have Colson than Berger. I wish Grace all the best
Clark wants to win. Sure she liked and respected Grace but she wanted a better point guard to back her.
I think it's possible that the best alternative for Grace is what is happening now with the Lynx. How much playing time would she have gotten this year with the Fever? No one knows that better than CC.
