FIRE THE WHOLE SELECTION COMMITTEE
YEAH! HOW DARE THEY WIN THE GOLD MEDAL WITHOUT CC!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@TheMeefive CC's teammates didn't step up and start showing they were offensive threats enough for her to not get trapped and triple teamed constantly until AFTER the Olympics selection, so we hadn't seen what she could really do at that point, so I understand that mistake. I'm not one of those.
My issue is selecting a player who had barely dribbled in a WNBA game(CG) this year, an over the hill, also injured DT, and BG who I believe has missed half the season so far! 3 injured players on your roster! Ridiculous.
@@TheMeefive just it was trash
For winning the gold medal? That’s just stupid.
@@progressiveoverload-my6iz NO, JUST FIRE THE CAITLIN CLARK WORSHIPPERS.
As was said in another podcasts
"The USA womens bb team looked old, tired, and injured." Harsh, but true.
They be like "if Lebron can do it at 39, so can we cause were just as good" mentality lmfao
Diana Taurasi's gold medal was 100% absolute charity. She did NOTHING during the entire Olympic competition to earn that medal
SHE DID SOMETHING THAT'S WHY WE WON😊🙏😊WE LOVE YOU DT AND TEAM USA ❤😊
@@RighteousisGod We should suit up MJ and have him sit at the end of the Men's bench and get a DNP every game and "earn" him another medal.
give Taurasi a gold plated medal as she probably scored 10 points in the ENTIRE competition!!!
@@shauncampbell4371 She had 5. 2 pts. against Japan and 3 against Nigeria. In 5 games she had 5pts., 4 reb., 6 assists, 2 TOs and 1 steal.
@@RighteousisGod She had all of 5 points in 5 games. That's NOT why we won.
Taurasi and Gray had no business being on that team. That is a scandal. They were picked by friendship corruption. Clark and Ogunbowale should have been on that team. And while I haven't exactly picked who else to replace, so should Angel Reese. And Wilson and Plum were just tremendous.
Arike took her name out of the pool
It would have to be Grinder because she is still not up to her best after she just got back from a broken foot. Reese is 6 3 while AJA is 6 4 as center. With Grinder the came slows down because she can't run like she use to.
@@faervas1234She?
@@cutetay71 Because of the politics that put DT etc. on the team
Don't take this too seriously. We all know sports are ridden with politics, those shameful Olympics are another evidence.
She should have been fired the first time she made a negative comment about a player in the wnba that could and should have played on team usa except for the coaches hate.
Because of Cheryl Reeve for her extreme jealousy and envy towards the best rookie in wnba history, I was cheering for France. And I am a proud and patriotic American 😢
No you're not. A true patriot, doesn't put their personal Fandom of a player, over rooting for their country.
How'd that work out for you?
@@davidpetrosky
lol It is not the player. It is because of the absolutely brutal hatred, jealousy, and envy of the supposed American coach. Reeve is blinded by her emotions so badly, she can’t see facts
@@TheMeefive
I guess I didn’t really care much
USA won so good for them. Guess the proof I didn’t care was only watched last 5 minutes. Was kind of exciting and entertaining 5 minutes
Not gonna lie I was rooting for France
I bet Cheryl Reeve literally gave two shits when Gabby Williams was shooting that last ball.
Of course because she knew that we were bringing home the gold.
Tsk tsk wnba then half shot only.I knw a win is a win but not deserving.Team France push them 2 d limit.F Williams hit that last shot n 3s big pblem in overtime
@patgray5389 she may have pooped two s@*% as well 😂😂😂😂😂
No, she shat two.
@@patgray5389 And if it was a 3 pointer instead of a 2 she would have literally given "2 shits" on the spot, and then a few more as it went into overtime. 🤣🤣🤣
This team's performance throughout these Olympics shows what you reap when you use politics to select team
Yep, they reaped a gold 🏅. That will show them!!!
Let's see .... They won EVERY game, played 2 games in front of 25000+ people, had the highest quarterfinal game attendance and WON the gold medal. S when you use politics to select a team it brings success? Good to know.
@@TheMeefive Womens team had the lowest attendance
@LuciaAIArt Cool, they did nothing special. All they did was give the world a head start on our next Olympic squad. Just like the NBA these other countries have gotten better and will continue to do so. Next time around we won't have near the experience they did this time around. Bad moves, bad play, nothing gained but another hollow medal wrapped around politics and highschool type drama queens.
Do you really think it is a great strategy when you end up finally benching one of your first picks ? Not exactly long-term thinking is it
Playing politics almost came back to bite them in the butt.
YES!
And the terrible thing us that it is not just picking their friends. It is choosing who is and is not based on politics and views, but we have no idea of those views.
Caitlin Clark seems shunned because she can get big dollars for endorsements and because she is not "one of them." But, CC has never tried to be an advocate for or against anything, for which the rest of the WNBA elite advocates. She seems convicted got her silence?? Why?
And, Cheryl Reeve needs to go away. She may be fine as a WNBA coach, but playing who she played?? Great that she sat Tarausi that should have not been on the team, but Ionescu should have gotten more minutes.
The sad thing I saw from both this and the NBA squad that had a similar performance, is that their biggest potential strength never was used. DEPTH. When you bring injured and older players, you lose the ability to use depth by throwing fresh bodies on the floor.
These teams reminded me of the 1988 Men's team coached by John Thompson that had a lack of shooters, one of which was the injured Hershey Hawkins who was not played. The Soviets showed up with a bunch of players from their "Baltic SSRs" that could shoot, like Sabonis. End result: Bronze for U.S.; Gold for the Soviets; and the Silver went to Yugoslavia.
Gabby’s foot was inches from tying the game with that last shot. USA barely scraped by with this one. If France wasn’t absolutely awful at 3’s they would have easily won this game.
I mean you could just as easily say that if Breanna Stewart plays 10 percent better, team USA blows them out.
…if Team USA would have played better, they would have blown them out….both of our comments are stupid
@@FreshWater37 But you could field a team that even if it didn't play good would still win by 20. Instead they took the risk and it didn't bite them this time. If they keep picking shitty teams like this, it will eventually cost them a gold medal.
@@robertdouth8979Honestly , I would have not taken DT and CG. I would have replaced them with Ogunbowale and Ogwumike.
@@robertdouth8979 That was this team. Everyone including Aja had a bad game, and yet they still won. Let that sink in Aja Wilson had a bad game and still dropped 20/13 on them. Stewie played terribly, only two of them showed up today, and it was still enough to win.
'Two Shits' Reeve is hilarious.
She is one sht reeves.
Coach 2 shits lol
Don't forget when pressed she lowered it to not "not even one shit".
💩 💩
That nickname is great!!
Please do not have DT become a coach in the W or any where close to the games in 28'
Hmmmm. She loves gold medals. You're right! She might end up coaching the team in the future.🙄🙄🙄
@@rosby Let's be honest, this process is so corrupt that if she wants to play in 4 years they will let her and still blow smoke up our ass about taking "the best team"
Well said. But the WNBA old guard is going to fight any change to the club hierarchy and the style of play no matter what. It’s almost like they don’t want to be a real big-time sports league.
Clark is going to have to drag them kicking and screaming in to the future.
😂😂😂
It is going to happen because it is inevitable. No matter what they tried to do to Caitlin in the first half of the season, she withstood it and not only survived but thrived. Talent, hard work, a dynamic style of play and a grateful/joyful approach to the game will not be denied.
Cheryl " Miss Piggy " Reeve's should maybe just let basketball go..
Amazing 🐷 How have I not seen this 😅
Coach of the year and having a top three team in the WNBA should give up coaching because she didn't choose Caitlin Clark how stupid can you sound?
100%!!
@hottrakz COTY for this disgraceful, evil hearted, toddler acting human is the biggest joke. She is unprofessional and an embarrassment. It has NOTHING to do with Caitlin Clark.
...and carefully back away from the pizzas and cheeseburgers. Health is an important example to set. American obesity is a medical crisis.
Starting CG was to justify her being in the team, totally political. Backfired.
All I know is there is a gold medal coming home.
Backfired they got gold
@@Wnbafan9956 They barely won. CG should of never been picked for the team because a Achilles heals surgery is a 2 year project to get back to were you were before the injury. They could of brought 2 other point guards. and Plume could of played her normal role. The entire Az. should of been replace because they were old or recovering form injury. The swarming defense made them useless at this time there career recovery. They were picked because of Social Justice not because they were the best players available.
@@faervas1234What social justice? Maybe I haven’t paid close enough attention but I don’t get the political issue.
@@TheCaninistIt’s a phantom complaint. When Mick says politics he means team politics, aka favoritism for the old guard, the old style of play. A lot of other people come in and claim politics as in LGTBQ politics is the reason for the selections. I agree with Mick’s take, the other take I see as being a reach at best (unless the player comes out as anti LGBTQ which Clark has never done).
Look, we all know this was the second best team that Team USA sent. The best team was the WNBA All-Stars that beat them
This was more like Team France crumbling under the pressure and losing than Team USA winning. It was there to grab for France. Their shooters just didn’t go for it due to pressure they were under emotionally. When they switched off their emotions and shot at the last attempt, they scored. They should have started with that earlier. So unfortunate.. now they won’t have chance since next time, there will be CC in the team 😅
yeah in the first half I saw like 8 points france should have got from 'easy' shots (not easy for me, but uncontested) that they missed. Team usa got really lucky. seemed like a really low scoring game - early on I thought neither team would get past 50 points!
The French Team appeared to play for France and not themselves who happened to be from the USA.
Marine was not in a good day.. And the team missed some points they never missed before..
@@nouvelarrivant exactly. The game against Belgium, they shots were raining down.. it just had to be the weight of the gold medal match affecting them in the 1st half.
You are fired coach USA!!!
Most ridiculous shameless pathetic coach of the hole WNBA.
They won you totally not a bot
The Chicago coach is as bad, the Las Vegas coach maybe worse.
NO HONORARY POSITIONS on the Olympic team. It's a PRIVILEGE to be one the team. IT SHOULD BE EARNED!
The WNBA only supports Old Player Privilege.
So by your logic the committee did the right thing by not selecting CC.
I mean, CC and Angel (good enough) should've been on the team to further build the wnba brand, DT, BG, and Asia should be there as embassador/good enough, everyone else... I don't know... Regardless, the fact that Reeve couldn't put a lineup together from that team to dominate was a joke. Should be fired, can't build a team and can't coach.
Cheryl Reeves should be fired from all basketball coaching...PERIOD
Old, slow, and injured.
And Gold medal winners
@@TV-ob1if Jesus I hope you are getting paid to carry water for a shitty team that only wins gold cause the rest of the world hasn't caught up yet.
And the announcers kept saying best team ever selected and most dominant ever ...lmao... definitely not
They must have missed the best team ever selected geting whupped by Caitlin & friends a short while back. The announcers ignorance underscores the general lack of interest in the historic wnba, that thankfully might diminish as Caitlin gets back on screens in the remains of the wnba season.
They have won 8 straight gold medals without Caitlin. I get it tho.., ya was finally hoping she won something. USA WOMENS BASKETBALL IS THE MOST DOMINANT TEAM SPORT IN THE OLYMPICS. Without Caitlin Clark.
@@williesaunders6798cope harder. I guess you are unaware of the 400-meter relay, women's gymnastics and women's soccer.
Best women’s team was left behind in the States. This Olympic team was lucky to get out of there with the gold medal.
Team USA was so lucky! Please NEVER let Cheryl Reeves coach Team USA EVER again!
France was unlucky
“Lucky” what is lucky? Flat out beating a team? Playing better defense, shooting better. You people confused lucky with a great close game.
I know, the WNBA All-stars would've won by 30
Yes lucky to have aja Wilson
@@mikeleichtweis9413 they will get their chance when they have earned their spot on Team USA but for now take this L since you are against your own country
And she thought CC wasn't ready for the bigs. USA might've won the gold, but lost in everything else that mattered. Not having CC and AR on the team was a huge wasted opportunity.
CC didn't show up for the Allstate game.😂😂
What else mattered??? They won the gold. I'm quite sure that's what they were chasing.
I honestly hope the Clark fans decide to stop watching. Watch their one opportunity at being relevant slip through their hands and go back to the nobodies they deserve to be.
Finally we are heading towards the second half of the season.
I can't wait til Friday
Taurasi' scored 3 total points in the Olympics. There is no way you can justify her being on this team at this point in her career.
Time for reality to set in DT needs to retire today she will be detrimental to the Mercury the rest of the season Griner should go to
Of course we can justify it: WNBA is a political front, not a sports league.
Sports change over time and most of the WNBA is still just playing put a player in the paint and try and do a layup basketball. There is no run and gun other than when CC is playing. Let the US fans vote on who is on the team and who the coach is, better choices will be made.
This is what happens when you leave the best team at home
Winning Gold ?

i said it earlier, make her find her own way back to the United States...
I agree with Mick talks hoops 100% on this one. Full disclosure I thought the usa would blow France out.

Yeeeeeeup😮
You need to understand that Gray takes care of the ball. Can handle pressure and is big. Clark would have lost this game. PERIOD!! Give France their props. They are damn good!! Besides did your country make the Olympics? We're also the only country that does not practice year round for this event.
THANK YOUUU! like he’s totally disrespecting the french team. they worked their asses off to compete against team USA. & on top of that HIS OWN TEAM WILL NEVER EVEN SEE A GOLD NOR A SILVER MEDAL. we literally won & this whole video was just him bitching & complaining about nonsense.
@akariharris9024 all of his videos do. He's capitalizing off Angel Reese and Caitlin Clark's name. He knows nothing about USA Basketball. Has he known Candace Parker and Sylvia Fowles went as rookies, he'd be livid. Lol.
Saying she should be fired is pointless because USA basketball women’s team changes their coaches every olympics anyway 😅
Well, no USA Olympics coach can get a contract to do more than one Olympics within the same contract. I guess it's safe to say that many of these posters who say "She should be fired" want that she should never ever ever be considered for another Olympics coaching stint ever again.
No celebration at the buzzer! They won but the didn't. They all new it! Their faces didn't lie! A win with loss flavour! They should thank Reeve, Taurasi and the Selection Committee for that!🤪
It’s gonna leave a sour taste in their mouths. And this fiasco will follow them forever. Never forgotten!
I contributed as many points to todays game against France while sitting on the toilet as Diana Taurasi and Chelsea Grey combined.
France should have stopped with the three's and drove to the basket more. Not for scores,as much as fouls.
Chelsea Gray has entirely lost my respect. In her form she shouldn't have accepted her position on the team, and neither should have DT.
As for the "WNBA as the best league in the world", my a$$. The team US has shown that the world is quickly catching up (and playing most of the year, rather than just a summer league).
The only thing the US team had plenty of was hubris. I would have loved to see them fall badly and skin their knees.
It's the college basketball the best in the world. The WNBA is a minor League with minor League problems and drama. The NCAA is the premium form of women's basketball. It like men's basketball before the rebranding in the 80's and the NBA because the game to watch.
So in a word. She should’ve followed Kawhi Leonard home hun guy😎
If CC was French, USA would have been hammered. The French seemed to be frightened to go for 3 points, even when totally unguarded
Hammered with free French turnovers. CC would have been in a giving mood.
@@LuciaAIArt😂
@@LuciaAIArtI’m crying 😭😭😭😭😭😭
CC is only shooting about 30%
@@LuciaAIArt She couldn't have given away more turnovers than Chelsea Gray did in like 9 minutes of playing time.
They won gold that's all... Just say Congratulations and let's get ready for wnba to return
What is the stated Goal of why they play international basketball. There is no question that would of won the gold. What people are pointing out WNBA has a Club mentality instead of doing it as a business. This win doesn't help to grown the international market. Chelsea Grey and Diana Taurasi both should of refuse the invite for the betterment of growing the brand. Instead they come off is selfish and entitled. The couches and the selection committee could see they were not up to it. If they were going to bench them then having Reese and Clark sitting on the bench would of served the brand better by bring more interest. They would of been more of a benefit to the team. The the total of 6 point contributed.
Gray can't run and Diana can't play or shoot.. Insanity
We seem to be the only country that complains about winning.. we won folks.. quit crying.. also it's a good thing cc wasn't there.. she needed the rest.. her legs weren't there towards the break
They won't select Reeve again....her attitude and needed a miracle against Belgium in Fiba and almost lost by a miracle....way too close
USA's coaches are only used once
I mean, team USA coaches only work one cycle. She’s done now, regardless of performance.
That’s not true. She can coach again if selected. Geno did in 2012 and then 2016 unless the rules changed and I’m unaware.
@@Yngtrey25 she CAN, but she would have to be rehired. The standard rule is one cycle per coach.
@@83541 yes per contact. She can and very well may be back. Who else would you have coach team USA in 2028? Pretty sure Geno said he didn’t want to anymore. Dawn Staley again?
@@Yngtrey25 I wouldn’t be mad at Dawn Staley. I think Noelle Quin would also be great, and there are countless great coaches in women’s basketball on the collegiate level that might be interested. Tara Vanderveer, Corey Close, Lindsay Gottlieb…
@@83541 definitely agree with most those names, although Olympic basketball has gone the “pro” route when it comes to coaches recently for the men’s and woman’s. I wouldn’t mind Quinn. She’s a very underrated coach imo.
Taurasi was right. Reality was coming. And it came to bite her hard. And also to bite Reeve and the rest of the team. Except for Copper, who saved the game! And Sabrina who was, unexplainably, benched after showing that she was, indeed, changing the game in the USA favour.
Mick, take a deep breath, we all agree the team should have been better and the politics is out of control, lets now watch and see if the break has helped CC's 3pointer. She needed the rest
Why, b/c they won the GOLD. Lol. Should Steve Kerr be fired too for a close game in mens? How is the selection process since you're talking? Lol.
Isn't there a different men's basketball coach every 4 years for the Olympics?
Fever game can't start soon enough
team usa is a friend's family and lovers and not the best players
Agreed....incompetent & her judgement is suspect, especially her treatment of CC.....
That was disgraceful! Next time is going to be Caitlin picking the team..
CC is nice but she’s no where near the level of Arike Ogunbowale who was snubbed prior and declined this time around.
I mean they're completely different players and play different positions. Arike is like a better version of Kelsey Mitchell (Iverson type player in nba terms). Caitlin is like a combination of Magic Johnson & Steve Nash
@@MickTalksHoopsso why do reese & clark get compared so much when they play completely different positions? 😭
Coaching aside,, this was the most brutal game I have ever seen. The WNBA contact is like patty cake compared to FIBA.
Respectfully, if Team USA 🇺🇸 won by 1 point or 25 points, Team USA 🇺🇸 won the Gold Medal 🥇, I disagree with Mick’s take on this topic
So first off there is a new coach for every olympics so she won't be fired as her time is up and the job goes to a new coach now. Second, the world is catching up. France played a masterful game and not giving them credit is childish. Third, wining gold means that you never have to apologize! Ever! Why not say it was a thrilling game and have some fun instead whining all the time?
Precisely. This is a perfect example of “first world problems”. If you win Gold then you made the right decision. Period
There is not necessarily a new coach every Olympics. Geno Aurriemna coached for two Olympics and Coach K coached for three on the men's side. Having said that, I think it is extremely unlikely Reeve wil be back. She had proven with the Lynx that she can win when she has superior talent, which was the case here.
The selection process needs to be adjusted. It is clear that the US did not choose it's best team in Paris. In the words of Herb Brooks, "I don't want the best players, I want the right players", It was clear from the start that this team did not have a true point guard, other than Chelsea Gray, who was injured.
@@TV-ob1if Trying to justify the unjustifiable? This should have been a walk in the park for team USA if you would have brought the “right team” instead of the geriatric and the infirmary and instead of bringing the buddy buddy team. Do you think the other countries brought the buddy buddy league or the best player for every position they could find? They took the best player and this is what team USA failed to do and this is why they came within a hair of not bringing the expected prize home. If you cannot see that you either fool yourself or you do not know enough about basketball to formulate an adequate opinion on the question. You have not made the right decision and acting like you did puts you in a position that the next time you won’t be saved by the bell. Failing to acknowledge that is failing to learn from past experience and that is acting dumb. Period.
@@michelleblanc6377it’s justified by them winning Gold. I swear some of you know nothings like to bitch and complain about everything.
There is 0.0 failure when you win the Gold. You were taught wrong
@@mikek6438 Alright. I didn't know that. I agree the selection process does not focus on how the game is changing. They pick the team like they're picking the Dream Team instead of the right players for the best position
Where’s all the turnover people? Those turnovers was painful to watch!
Ikr, USA totally should have added the 🐐 of turnovers to decrease their turnovers.
@@LuciaAIArtI like funny people
Never forget: Clark is the superhero. Reeve was just an actor.

@@markyg236 LOL! I know. And it tickles me everytime I post it. 😁
CC is not the best point guard in the wnba stop it when CC finally win something meaningful then u can say that
Yeah Mick is comedic. Remembered he has to say that or else CC fans would riot. 😂😂😂
It was great fun to watch Reeve's face the whole game. She was shutting on her pants! And mentally choked! They won only because of Copper and because Johannes had an awful day!
Almost didn't count the usa win the Gold
Yes they outplayed by team france
Why she fired?
She didn't pick Caitlin clark.
Caitlin clark will play so many olympics in the future
Let it go
Dude, it’s a rotation. She only gets to coach once.
I know lots of people were upset about CC not going to the Olympics. After seeing what happened over there and how Sheryl Reeves coached AND her dislike of Caitlin Clark she would have left her on the bench.
I agree. Team USA could have greatly benefitted from Clark's floor running and ability to set the team up for easy baskets today, but Reeve would have had her buried on the bench, so I'm glad she wasn't there.
Yes, the rest did CC good as we saw in last nights game. I hope she kills it the rest of the season, breaks lots of records has more triple doubles, etc, etc, etc!!
You don’t know anything. She’s not allowed to coach the next Olympic team. A new coach will be selected.
I disagree. She is a great coach with a long track record of success. Unlike the men's who had struggled along the way. The women were dominating until the gold medal game. The selection of the team is the problem not the coach. Agunbawale, Marina Maybrey should have been in the team than chelsea gray etc.
You can't be a great coach if you play ineffective players while keeping better players on the bench.
@@francesw.6774 I guess you have not followed her coaching to make silly statement like that. The problem as I said before isn't the coach, it's how they select the players in the team. Even before she became USA coach they were still selecting the wrong players in previous Olympics. People are throwing her under the bus when she is the symptom not the root cause. The next USA coach will deal with the exact same issue. She is still undefeated as coach and is gonna continue doing great things with Minnesota. We need to blame the root cause which is the team selection isn't on merit but favoritism.
@@HassanElmi I agree that the selection process is biased and not based on merit, so we are on the same page there. Otherwise, it is absolutely the case that great coaches do not play less effective players while leaving better players languishing on the bench, which is exactly what Reeve did during much of the Olympics. Yes, she figured it out in the end, but it took her a long time to make critical adjustments, for whatever reason. That's not a definition of "greatness" to me. And, by the way, there is no need to be insulting ("silly statement") just because someone disagrees with you.
The whole Olympic USA women’s basketball committee should be fired. But they will all blame it on Caitlin Clark and her fans.
WNBA All-stars would've won by 30
The gold medal wouldn't be any bigger
@@TheMeefive Winning gold is not the point. It's about branding the WNBA as an international brand. Barely winning the gold with a 1/3 of your players being useless or dragging you down doesn't make for good branding. The USA women's team/WNBA and their supporter are delusional in thinking that are deserve to loved and respected like the NBA players. Unlike the Women's succor team who were the ones winning their world cups. So they didn't have a men's team that you are in the deep darkest part of their shadow so no one cares to look that deeply. The rest of the world has their own home grown players to be fans of like any other minor league.
@@TheMeefive Yes, better to not grow the game and have that embarrassment of a gold medal game show what women's basketball is about.
Why not put DT on the 28 team too? She probably won't contribute much less than she did this time.
We all know it's not about earning a medal for her but just getting them, so might as well put her on the coaching staff and let her sit on the bench as much as she did in the Gold medal game. Just let her keep "earning" them. She's earned like 3, but has 6, so it's a good grift if you can get it.
I really think Caitlin Clark would struggle against the physicality allowed in the Olympics. Especially since she hasn't been able to rest. This month off would be good for her. Although she could have been in Taurasi's spot.
Politics over Talent,
Btw there very lucky France was a poor 3-point shooting team!
Whatever you are saying the bottom line is that they won the gold and that is what they went there for so it is a done deal and move on to the second half of the season
I think if you check, you'll see that the coaches are changed after each Olympics...
But my hat off to France even with 10 pt home advantage and wild fans France really deserved to win they really deserved to Win...
They won gold out of the entire world just give it a break for a week or so. Next Olympics Clark and Reese will dominate
I believe that Team USA 🇺🇸 needed more scoring options, I think they should have took Arike over Caitlin, because Arike is just the better offensive option
A win is a win. 1 point or 20, it doesn't matter.
USA should sign Christie Sides😂
We would lose for sure 😂
@@kvb385 😂
😂
😅😂🤣
Sides and Dunn seemed to be doing everything that they could to hinder CC, I think they were supporting the old mentality of the "in club". The last few games Sides seemed to have begun to use CC's talent , rather than forcing CC to play the way "we do" in the WNBA. Now that all of the justifying the insanity of the picking team USA is moot, we will soon see if Sides will use a generational talent or if she is intent in trying to turn CC into an average, boring, run of the mill half court banger.
A fast good shooting team beats team USA easy- they are slow and old. Just like the all star game- push the ball and make them run and it’s over.
they rotate head coaches so no point in firing.
No matter what you do in America, some people will always try to criticize you, whether you win or lose. Remember, nothing in life is perfect.
It was not a convincing win for the US team. They could have gone overtime and French team might have won it they didn’t have 3 point shooters. Send the All Star WNBA NEXT TIME.
This was very convincing because they fought hard and got a win against a great team. They played against France and the referees and won
@@hottrakz The refs were bad both ways. They called and out of bound ball that was clearly should of been France's ball. That gave the US the basket that kept them ahead. instead of giving France the lead.
Yeah right 👉 I believe you're speaking with emotions I guess you're part of the media just like ESPN uplift one in order to discredit or down play another player
That’s not fair Mick, these international players are really really good and are. Rey capable of winning! The coaches selected the right players and the right team. You need to stop 🛑 this!
I heard that insult you said about Angel Reese. If Angel Reese doesn't have offensive mind, Caitlin Clark doesn't have a defensive mind and that's one of the reasons why she was left off
You Are Not From America, What in the Hell Are You Talking About !!! Worry About Your Own Country, Because they didn't Win Shit !! USA Women Basketball = ( Gold 🥇)
more golds per capita than the US
You’re just looking for numbers dude.
A win is a win and a gold medal is a gold medal. Both Clark and Reese needed a break since they have been playing since October. Having said that, the entire team will be younger in 2028 and that includes the players and coaching staff.
The entire purpose as the Olympic committee and the WNBA is to Grown the WNBA brand. The AZ players should of not be selected. Anrike, CC, and Boston or Reese should of been selected. At least Anrike should been on the team instead of DT. She was the notable one that was left off the team. When it was announced. I's pick Boston because she was the RoY that year.
They win talk about sore winners wasn't like it's the Irish Rugby team who can't win $hlt
NO CHERYL REEVES DID WELL. FRANCE IS A TOUGH TEAM TO BEAT BUT ONLY THE BEST PLAYERS COULD HAVE WON THIS GAME AND THEY DID.. BOTH TEAM PLAYED HARD. BUT THE BEST TEAM WON😊🙏😊
Finally Yes some none American telling us how to run team USA
This Caitlin Clarke narrative is out of control at this point. She doesn’t even play on a winning WNBA team!
Selection committee
Dawn Staley LSU..Seimone Augustus LSU..Delisha Milton-Jones, OD…Jennifer Rizzotti, C.Sun president…Bethany Donaphin, WNBA operations.
All need to be permanently retired from the selection committee.
Howd Ireland do 😂😂😂 Go Team USA
The problem is the selection committee didn’t want to take CC and leave AR off
Any team that wins a chanpionship is the RIGHT team. You can criticize whatever but your point as moot as their primary objective was to win a gold medal and they did.
True... But who you going to pick for the next coach? The world is shifting to running 5 out of we don't evolve, this will be the end of the streak... Who didn't play for team USA that could've played for Nigeria... If both of those players played for Nigeria(that played in the All Star game), they would've won Gold
Never watched a minute cant stand the coach and some of the arrogant players…… wish the other all star team went…would of watched …
I agree. The score was
Literally 25-25 at the half 🤣
That is because they didn't have a player who could break down the defense because that players was still recovering for a 9 months of no basketball. It's unfortunate I don't know of the other point guards for the other teams other then Clark and Chelsea Grey. It's odd that point guards are not big names in the WNBA.
i could be wrong, but i think thats just how chelsea runs. she looks like she's gotta take a massive dump when shes running up and down the floor. she has a god-awful shooting motion too.
She always runs like that mick is new to the wnba
@@Wnbafan9956 ooooooh. that explains. "she's limping around the floor! she cant run!" i was like, when was this?? she always looks like shes limping around the floor and cant run! 😂🤣😂
@@gnphillips5481 that’s just how gray moves she had bad knee injuries early in her career so that’s why she runs like that. It’s funny he says she can’t run when she always has run like this and won a finals mvp with one of the greatest statistical playoff runs in 2022 but that was before he followed the league
She’s not coming back but fired for winning gold? You snowflakes are too much😂
The team was selected by the USA Basketball Women's National Team Committee and approved by the USA Basketball Board of Directors. How to fix this? Clean house at both organizations. The Committee made bad choices and the Board was a useless rubber stamp. Then, replace the Committee members with NBA players. That's right, the men. The men without the petty jealousies and hatreds. The men who watch the WNBA. The men who are fans of this game. The men who have paid the WNBA's bills and salaries for the last 25 years. Those men will pick the best team to send to the Olympics.
Good Lord! You’ve become an unabashed carnival barker, Mick… Don’t completely shit out your soul.
