      Saying nothing actually. Like all WNBA players, who??? There is no star power. You have 1 player on a college team that the coach/media decides to elevate. When they went against a TEAM with multiple talent, they lost. This story has fizzled out faster than an open can of soda.

    Erica Wheeler is a consummate professional who knows that Clark's presence will be beneficial for the entire team. Wheeler still will get more than half the minutes of each game at point guard, especially in Clark's rookie year, and you can bet that the coaches will figure out an offense that puts both Wheeler and Clark on the floor at the same time. Clark actually may wind up being better at shooting guard than point guard in the professional ranks, similar to when the Knicks had Earl the Pearl and Clyde Frazier in the same back court in 1973 and both prospered as did the team. Same goes for the Bulls of the 1990s with Pippin and Jordan on the floor together. Throw Aaliyah Boston into that mix, and the Fever will have a formidable offense to contend with.

    • @brianroesch3259
      @brianroesch3259 6 месяцев назад +4

Plus an awesome guard to feed an active team. It's really all about finding the right chemistry. This can be close to a free-flow college bball team.

      The teams weren't making enough money to fly charter until the late 80's. This is one reason why the Lakers 33 game win record is so amaizing. They flew charter, and often played three games in a row with at least one being on the road. I don't think a modern team would win 60 games under those conditions.

      She's the best female player in history. They are talking about her. Lots of people want to see her. It's a safety issue. She's like the Beatles for girls basketball. I know you have a little pp and are insecure so you have to talk smack about women but it's not complicated to understand this girl needs more security

      ⁠​⁠@@joketsu100first of all she is not the best player, she is one of the best shooters. These women been in the league fighting for this for decades and now all of a sudden because of her they want to make light of the situation. Also I’ve been watching WNBA since 1999 and I’m a season ticket holder for the CT Sun since 11, I’m sure I support women sports more than you.

      @@jexcel07I’m fully aware they been wanting it, my question is why it’s needed more now because she is there?? Was the women safety not important before?? I recall last season they had a team sleeping in an airport because their flight was cancelled, no security or anything.

    Going out on a limb here, but maybe, just maybe, it is a good thing for them to fly regular commercial for a few more years to help build their fan base and get a little closer to the fans that they want to support them and spend their money on them. Traveling charter and hiding from the fans is not going to help do that. Build the product and then you will have a successful league!

    Since Some of the WNBA players does not like CC they don’t deserve Charter flights, they should just take the BUS. And for the committee members, they should take off expenses in their pay if they want CHARTER FLIGHTS.. CC is bringing good business and all they do is show jealousy, instead of get the games better, bring better money to the table. Means bring more fans to watch the game, done promoting hatred and shame to themselves.

  • @tagtag-connected5263

    I can already see other WNBA players complaining about private flights even if all players were allowed to fly private. I can see now the complaints. Hey we had it good until Clark fame had to get us flying private.. now we are looked upon as rich folk and we cannot connect with ordinary fans on the road like we used to so we don’t like it 😆. No winning with them.

    It would be nice if the addition of Caitlyn Clark helps all of the WNBA to become more profitable and to make more money as a whole. I mean, the Indiana Dallas preseason game is sold out, which is great. But will there be an increase in interest in non-Caitlyn clark games. I would imagine there will be some, just don't know how much.
