@@carl6352 I hate to compare AR with CC because they play different positions, but is it just me or does it seem like AR is in lala land when getting back down court? She just kinda is in a jogging motion but it's slow asf.
@@brieariley5041 Angel shows no ball handling skills and just sits under the basket. And wait for others to pass her the ball. When she finally gets the ball she looks like a confused ogre trying to shoot into the basket while missing layups.
She will handle playoffs as she has handled all contrivances she has faced thus far. Her maturity alone makes her special. She is the newest GOAT in the sports arena. And will only get better.
Wow I didn't realize all that happened, Caitlin Clark beat the Phoenix team that snubbed her before she was even in the WNBA. This is proof Clark is phenomenal.
Taurasi can take it whatever way she wants. I'm sure it wasn't pleasant for Clark to hear Taurasi's comments about playing against the pros compared to 18 year olds. If you don't count the WNBA Allstars vs Team USA, CC and the Fever have beaten Phoenix 3 times. Maybe the WNBA players are playing like 18 year olds?
I watch European's League since 50 years and never watched WNBA before. I'm here for Caitlin and I'm really straggered by the bad level played in WNBA. In the 70th years, my CUC's team played better than a lot of WNBA''s teams now. It was a big disappointement for me. Taurasi should shut up because Caitlin played the game I expected to find in 2024 in WNBA and not the worst game I' ve seen in 50 years. 😂
DT sucks she so jealous of CC, DT need to retire while she has a half decent name left, before CC came to the WNBA all these women in then WNBA was playing for there self popularity. And they act un professional. Always looking for there self gain not for the team. It’s a new error. The league is growing at a more professional way. These women need to up there game and there attitude in the post interview just be more professional. So when your contract comes calling, your game and stats will pay a good contract. Your hate and jealousy is not going to get you a good contract, it’s your game and how you carry yourself professionally. The fans like that, remember fans pay for everything even you contracts. The fans pay the bills the more you win the fans the better you are in this league.
US team has been punished by Clark! Taurasi punished 4 times for that 18 year old, real seasoned professional women's remark! How's that reality working out for you? Eating crow everytime your on her court.
Don't forget, Taurasi was Caitlin's IDOL when she was a little girl growing up! Taurasi doing nothing but putting CC down must have effected CC? Caitlin's reaction... OK your loosing the next 3 games MUHAAAA!
Caitlin Clark is changing the way women's basketball is viewed. She's extremely talented and works hard not to be flustered at the rude actions of others. I believe it's called class.
A participation trophy. Oops, I meant to say a participation gold medal. 😅. Didn't Diana Taurasi say that Caitlin Clark is going to get a Reality Check from the veterans when she enters the WNBA. Lol.
It's the same for soccer teams you take players to replace those that may get injured or have bad games, but you are part of the TEAM and all members are recognised for being there.
Well, that's simple, really. She was part of the team. That's what happens on a team sport like basketball, soccer, or softball, just to name a few. It takes a team to actually win. Superstars, fading stars, and just everyday players
I’m watching a lot of the shots of CC’s - on her release !! She’s clearly fouled a lot, with no calls. These referees swallowing their whistle !? If it continues where CC could get hurt - bad !!! She may have to consider it as an assault !! In witch the League would be Responsible and liable for not controlling these blatant fouls !! Open for litigation ! The commissioner could get called into court as well and sued !! This is a Wealthy woman, that this Dirty kind of play could jeopardize her career. A lot of people in the league would be responsible and could get sued !!!😮
My girl won’t fall apart. You painted the whole scenerio exactly what was going on at Iowa state.. she’s a force to be reckoned with.. she THRIVES on adversity!! It makes her stronger and gives her more focus to improve.
I would also give Aliyah Boston a lot of credit for their wins. Clark, Boston, Mitchell. And of course Lexie Hull suddenly stepped up with 22 points v. Storm!
Yup, all four are kicking ass. A juggernaught. Four straight wins against taurasi’s mercury. CC is making her eat that comment about 18 yo rookies. Taurasi needs to retire. And i hope the fever makes the playoffs.
They knew Taurasi wasn't up for the task! They knew her body is a wreck that coundn't endue a full Olympics set of games, and yet she got a token Gold medal for eing broken and benched! Congrats Team USA!, also your closest to an Olympic loose!
Who’s Taurasi? I’m not familiar with her. Oh I understand she’s dominated the WNBA (I thought meant we need better athletes)for a long time. I honestly didn’t watch or wouldn’t have until the dynamic play of Caitlin Clark, truly a game changer.
Clark has boston under the hoop now she has long and short range shooters in mitchell and hull they just might become the best foursome the league has ever seen
If CC has a lane or a shot, she’ll take it. But she’s trying to develop the team into a cohesive force at the same time. That’s the only way they’ll make it to the playoffs.

Go ms Clark you absolutely rock , you have em scared and worried, it’s time to start burying them one at a time , never watched womens basketball,now don’t want to miss a Fever game ,yup I’ve got THE FEVER thanx Caitlin and teammates xoxo
This is how can tell you’ve never watched a WNBA game. No way in hell is CC better than Aja or Breanna. They are both on winning teams and will most likely face each other for the WNBA championship while CC and the fever sit at home watching. Her time will come but some of you CC stans need to let her earn her way to the top of the WNBA.
I take exception to the comment about how CC’s impact on the Fever is unprecedented, Larry Friggin Bird and the Boston Celtics, 1979/1980. As a rookie Bird improved the Celtics from 26 wins the year before he was drafted, to 60+ wins, then, next year, to the playoffs, then, year three, World Champions! Bird was something special and I see many of his qualities and skill set in CC! This is shaping up to be one for the record books! A game changer as big as the rivalry between Bird and Magic Johnson!
I think you're missing the context of the state it's been unprecedented for The Fever Team itself and in some respects the WNBA. BIrd and Jordan did the same for the NBA look how long ago that was the WNBA in young in comparison. But now and it of it is because of Clark people are Talking about the WNBA may for the first time
@@shirleyanthes3279 As I listened to the narration it hit me that the conversation was about one rookies impact on not only their team, but the league as a whole. In that regard I stand by my comment that history has recorded a “like” event in the 1980’s, when one person was so gifted and special that his addition to a poor performance team elevated that team to become world champions in the time span of only three years! Sounds a lot like CC to me, but it is very conceivable that Clark’s impact on the WNBA could well make the Bird/Celtics story pale in comparison. Anyway you slice it, this is shaping up to be just as important to the WNBA as Bird and Magic were to the NBA! Those two men truly changed the NBA!
@@Branfaol1 Precisely! Before Bird and Magic came into the NBA even the NBA PLAY OFFS were being tape delayed until late at night! There was little public interest in watching the NBA play. Nobody cared! That all changed with Larry Bird took the Celtics from a losing team with only 26 wins to a wining team of 60+ wins during his rookie year. (Sound familiar?) Then Irvin "Magic" Johnson entered into the scene and the NBA took off and never looked back! Of course it is too soon to know for sure, but C. Clark sure seems to be repeating history here with her impact on what has been up to this point a lack luster boring sport that could not find an audience. Bird too had to deal with a lot of racism, resentment and hate. The main difference between Bird and Clark is that Bird enjoyed the nay sayers because they gave him extra motivation to shove his game in their face! I can hear it now, "Caitlin "Legend" Clark"! Has a nice ring to it!!!
Yes, we know Bird and others...but the WNBA has been able to glide by on its lazy-river attitude for YEARS. It doesn't matter that it's basketball. It doesn't matter that it's funded in part by the NBA. It has fostered a culture of lazy behavior and a JV level of performance. And finally that may be changing. And it won't be Larry Bird or Magic Johnson who changed the WNBA. It will be the WNBA who will change itself. That's the key, and that's the only way that this will have any kind of long-term evolutionary effect. I look forward to seeing where this goes, even though I don't watch any sports on the teevee. Healthy sports make for a healthy society.
Fever isn’t a duo. Boston is invaluable for her points, rebounds and passing. Clark, Boston and Michell. (Smith can be good and just lately Hull as well, go Fever).
These two girls are the WNBA's version of Jordan and Pippen. They're becoming unstoppable. The more they play together, the better they're going to get.
Even better to have a team building strategy so they rotate in players with same game level skills, no break for opponents. Develop another CC, AB and KM,...build legacy
OMG, Sides admits she doesn't know how to Run a team??? Sides needs to manage time and momentum. Rotate Boston, Mitchell and Clark, two must be on the hardwood
4:07 Clark and The Fever are doing fine but why do you find it necessary to lie and exaggerate? The Fever was NOT dead-last, last season. They were 10th out of 12. So far this season they are 7th and have a losing record: 13-15. I expect they will climb in the standings and have more wins than losses by season's end. Why take a great story and sully it with inaccuracies?
Great to hear confident player, who happens to be a woman, speak. She is no different than the men speaking out. She seems to always speaks with grace and confidence
Clay Travis spoke truth in that clip. This league is standing still with its huge inertia of poor performance and social drama. CC might or might not be able to change that inertia, I don't know. But she is showing one thing to be true: The players of the WNBA are not very good at their sport. CC has revealed this as the dirty little secret, and she has shown that one wisp of a little girl fresh out of school at Iowa can basically manhandle almost everybody on this league. Not only that, she raises her teammates' playing level along with her own, so this is a force-multiplier of the grandest sort. It's also "shots fired" in a much larger battle. The little girls and young women currently playing in age group, summer, and college leagues will no doubt see that real success is available if you just work your @ss off. And it's not hard to work your ass off and grab that success when 80% of the current players are happily lazy. So next year we'll see a couple of new challengers in the CC mold. If we're lucky, we'll see a couple of veteran players awaken from their performance slumber next year too, and finally start working and playing like they mean it. And then maybe the year after that, we'll see a few MORE new rookies and maybe a couple MORE veterans all raising their game too. I'll bet that in 5 short years, a full 80% of today's players won't even be in the league anymore, because by then, you won't be able to hide your JV performance behind your age group work ethic. A more adult, more "professional" attitude about personal responsibility will be necessary to be successful. I'll bet that we might even see a lot of the (ahem) social "drama" disappear from this league over time too. Because if your league has upped its game, then you need to up yours. Pretty soon, you won't have time to be carrying on with woke drama off the court. You'll be too busy working hard, or you'll be too tired to be carrying on with nonsense that doesn't win games. I think this is the dawn of a new age for the WNBA. CC won't be the one to bring it on; at least not all by herself. But she will be the one who STARTED it all by showing what's possible if you just work hard, have grace, and leave the drama in your locker with your gear.
CC elevates her team, she wants everyone to be involved in the win. She's not selfish when it comes to scoring. If someone else has the shot and she is ready to give up her shot to get the points. That is what you want in a teammate. Just watch her teammates and look at the intensity they are playing with now. It's because of her effect on a team, she gets everyone going the same direction. GOAT, maybe. ROY for sure. MVP we'll see.
US women’s basketball barely won their games in this Olympics and taruasi scored 1 point 0.8 rebounds 1.2 assists, 11.1 % shooting, 16.7% from the arc and 11.2 minutes total playing time. She was basically useless and doesn’t even deserve the gold medal.
Boston, Mitchell (if she learns how to pass/assist), Clark, and now Hull… who will be the fifth player is the question. WONDERFUL to watch the evolution of talented individuals into a contending TEAM. Hang out a little while longer, Kelsey. Your floor general will provide the opportunity for greatness- a gift to everything FEVER.
LOL ESPN and all the haters, enjoy the all you can eat buffet of Crow under Glass, with a touch of hot sauce to hide the bitter taste of We told you so !! Caitlin Clark is the real deal!
I have watched DT play since her days at Connecticut. While she was in WNBA I probably watched her play 3 games. Since CC has entered I haven’t missed many games with my kids and grandkids!! DT had an opportunity to welcome CC into the league and blew it!!
Gosh, she's talented, straight, white and pretty attractive, THAT'S why they absolutely hate her! It's similar to Bird/Johnson then Jordan's entry into the NBA! Their fanbase is growing exponentially and other WNBA teams are NOT!❤❤❤😂😂😂😂😂 Wouldn't it be hilarious if all the Fever's games were sold out while the others were still lame! Diane Taurasi is NOW OLD NEWS!
Heck ya she can handle it she has team mates she can trust and they trust her to they are gona get down and move in sequence !! Traci has done put her foot in her mouth and now she nows how The Real Goat is and it ant her no more time to step back and let the new comers take it to a higher level !!!!
She has already set the WNBA record for turnovers in a season. Her decent to the "top of the bottom" was most impressive when you consider that she did this with 13 games to go in the regular season...truly remarkable.
She has also set the record for assists for a rookie in a season...with 12 gms left. If she averages 6.5 assists per game over those 12 (she averages 8.3 for the yr) she'll tie the all-time wnba record for assists in a season. Go hate somewhere else. She makes turnovers because she aggressively seeks to make passes other people can't make.
@@admtnic HATE isn't making those bad passes and getting her dribble picked. The turnovers were the primary reason for her not being an Olympian and will be a permanent detector to all those who really know amd love the game... The "cult of Catilin" will just have to acknowledge the cracks in their idol...
You don't know that. I've known people who have that "Rudolph nose" and are not drinkers. There's no way to know when you are standing on the outside looking in. So have some grace.
Clay Travis is highly skilled at distilling the problem right down to its core. Clay spoke the truth that day. The WNBA needs to see the truth for all that it is. The WNBA then needs to be willing to raise its level of commitment to the sport of basketball.
Sides is completely inept. Caitlin knows more about than this “Coach” At least she’s stopped trying to make Caitlin into something she’s not!! Still, Sides is an Assistant Defensive Coach at best. To put her in Charge of talented, elite professionals is a disservice to the game, league, team, fans…and herself. I guess I’d go show how stupid I was if someone gave me half a million dollars. At the end of the day, it would sink my soul to know I didn’t earn it. Now, and I’m sure it’s due to Linn Dunn having an Immense love & crush on Sides (Dunn needs to Retire - Again) Sides is getting a raise. For What?? Making Caitlin take a backside to what made her famous in the first place? All those losses at the beginning of the season fall at Sides feet…Caitlin came straight from being the Best collegiate athlete in history to the W, and Sides was the genius that wanted to Change the #1’s style of play? Jeesh…if Indiana MUST keep her (I can’t fathom why except maybe because CC looks like she’s broken her in) at least recognize whom do what for the team & when. Sides is an embarrassment. If Indiana is unfortunate enough to Have to deal with her again, and Sides is getting a freaking RAISE 🤦🏻♀️ I think CC & the Team should get raises (I mean, Sides should even give the team a % of her half M salary as THEY saved HER from being the biggest joke & Failure in W history. IMHO
Best analogy I've heard about Caitlin Clark (22). Caitlin is playing chess, and the rest of the wnba is playing checkers. Excluding Angel Sid Reese, she is playing tic-tac-toe.

Nobody cared! That all changed with Larry Bird took the Celtics from a losing team with only 26 wins to a wining team of 60+ wins during his rookie year. (Sound familiar?) Then Irvin "Magic" Johnson entered into the scene and the NBA took off and never looked back! Of course it is too soon to know for sure, but C. Clark sure seems to be repeating history here with her impact on what has been up to this point a lack luster boring sport that could not find an audience. Bird too had to deal with a lot of racism, resentment and hate. The main difference between Bird and Clark is that Bird enjoyed the nay sayers because they gave him extra motivation to shove his game in their face! I can hear it now, "Caitlin "Legend" Clark"! Has a nice ring to it!!!
Yes, we know Bird and others...but the WNBA has been able to glide by on its lazy-river attitude for YEARS. It doesn't matter that it's basketball. It doesn't matter that it's funded in part by the NBA. It has fostered a culture of lazy behavior and a JV level of performance. And finally that may be changing. And it won't be Larry Bird or Magic Johnson who changed the WNBA. It will be the WNBA who will change itself. That's the key, and that's the only way that this will have any kind of long-term evolutionary effect. I look forward to seeing where this goes, even though I don't watch any sports on the teevee. Healthy sports make for a healthy society.
Fever isn’t a duo. Boston is invaluable for her points, rebounds and passing. Clark, Boston and Michell. (Smith can be good and just lately Hull as well, go Fever).
These two girls are the WNBA's version of Jordan and Pippen. They're becoming unstoppable. The more they play together, the better they're going to get.
The new WNBA Era will be known as the Great Caitlin Clark Era as she sets a whole new game style
The grace and competitiveness of this young lady is amazing
She never talks smack, she always is focused on the game and not any outside words.. she is a class act 100%
MITCHELL, BOSTON AND CLARK THE NEW TRIO TO BE RECKON WITH😂😢😮❤
Even better to have a team building strategy so they rotate in players with same game level skills, no break for opponents. Develop another CC, AB and KM,...build legacy
Was just about to say this. Mitchell is always where Caitlin needs her to be when she's throwing out those cheeky dimes!
OMG, Sides admits she doesn't know how to Run a team???
Sides needs to manage time and momentum.
Rotate Boston, Mitchell and Clark, two must be on the hardwood
Exactly, Thanks For Watching!
@@Hooporting and Lexi
No not checkers and chess ... Clark is playing chess everyone else is playing tic tac toe
Playing tic tac toe with their elbows and knees.
Step aside turausi new day is coming they even beat your team not just once not twice but Three times a Lady 😂😂😂😂😂😂
FOUR TIMES TAURASI WAS BEAT BY CLARK
Once Caitlin Clark gets 2 or 3 players running with her they will be unstoppable for a generation
DT is an old nanny G.O.A.T. way past her sell bye date who won 5 Olympic golds + 1 Lead medals
😂😂 that’s great 😂😂
Outstanding! I couldn't have said it better!!!!
Okay, that was funny.
They should seriously consider adding the “Caitlyn Clark has been wronged” syndrome to the new DSM.
Absolutely ,point on
Move over grandma. CC the QUEEN ITS HERE
It's hard to say what happened last season for 99% of America..... Cause there was nothing to watch until now.
Isn’t Diane mostly concerned about being the most manly woman in women’s basketball🤔
4:07 Clark and The Fever are doing fine but why do you find it necessary to lie and exaggerate? The Fever was NOT dead-last, last season. They were 10th out of 12. So far this season they are 7th and have a losing record: 13-15. I expect they will climb in the standings and have more wins than losses by season's end. Why take a great story and sully it with inaccuracies?
C² is the best nickname her team mates could give her
Yes & it’s ironic because she’s well rounded rather than square.
Great for the Fever.
Stop the hate toward Clark. I love the WNBA and Clark’s has earned her place there
We love the FEVER‼️‼️🥰
The whole league will have to step up their game.
A WNBA bigger than NBA, craziest times we're in and this is one of the best crazies ever.
Since she's not Black she won't get crap. CC reminds me of a White Female Michael Jordan and so on.
You mis spoke not million dollars Billion dollars Clark
The thing that she said is at around 3:19 in case you get impatient
Great to hear confident player, who happens to be a woman, speak. She is no different than the men speaking out. She seems to always speaks with grace and confidence
Reality ✅
👁️✅
Clay Travis spoke truth in that clip. This league is standing still with its huge inertia of poor performance and social drama. CC might or might not be able to change that inertia, I don't know. But she is showing one thing to be true: The players of the WNBA are not very good at their sport.
CC has revealed this as the dirty little secret, and she has shown that one wisp of a little girl fresh out of school at Iowa can basically manhandle almost everybody on this league. Not only that, she raises her teammates' playing level along with her own, so this is a force-multiplier of the grandest sort.
It's also "shots fired" in a much larger battle. The little girls and young women currently playing in age group, summer, and college leagues will no doubt see that real success is available if you just work your @ss off. And it's not hard to work your ass off and grab that success when 80% of the current players are happily lazy.
So next year we'll see a couple of new challengers in the CC mold. If we're lucky, we'll see a couple of veteran players awaken from their performance slumber next year too, and finally start working and playing like they mean it. And then maybe the year after that, we'll see a few MORE new rookies and maybe a couple MORE veterans all raising their game too. I'll bet that in 5 short years, a full 80% of today's players won't even be in the league anymore, because by then, you won't be able to hide your JV performance behind your age group work ethic. A more adult, more "professional" attitude about personal responsibility will be necessary to be successful.
I'll bet that we might even see a lot of the (ahem) social "drama" disappear from this league over time too. Because if your league has upped its game, then you need to up yours. Pretty soon, you won't have time to be carrying on with woke drama off the court. You'll be too busy working hard, or you'll be too tired to be carrying on with nonsense that doesn't win games.
I think this is the dawn of a new age for the WNBA. CC won't be the one to bring it on; at least not all by herself. But she will be the one who STARTED it all by showing what's possible if you just work hard, have grace, and leave the drama in your locker with your gear.
So Taurasi didn't go nuts as per the headline! 😢 Why Clickbait the video? Also why are you so repetitive?
Telling people 7 times at the beginning of the video what CC said after the game was shocking, get to the point already
I agree. It's very easy to "overtease" the gist. It's like when a radio commercial says the phone number 5 times in a row. How desparate are you?
Caitlin Clark was simply showing Diana Taurasi what it's like for a Phenomenal Newbie to pay with "full grown women!" 😂❤😅
CC elevates her team, she wants everyone to be involved in the win. She's not selfish when it comes to scoring. If someone else has the shot and she is ready to give up her shot to get the points. That is what you want in a teammate. Just watch her teammates and look at the intensity they are playing with now. It's because of her effect on a team, she gets everyone going the same direction. GOAT, maybe. ROY for sure. MVP we'll see.
DT is definitely tarnishing her legacy with this jealousy and hate. It will be one of the things she will be remembered by.
That is a compliment to Taurasi and how Clark respects her and her team.
This is true; it is a compliment and a sign of respect from CC. But then that's what we would see from CC anyway, right?
US women’s basketball barely won their games in this Olympics and taruasi scored 1 point 0.8 rebounds 1.2 assists, 11.1 % shooting, 16.7% from the arc and 11.2 minutes total playing time. She was basically useless and doesn’t even deserve the gold medal.
Mitchel’s number? Looking like basketball hoop! Clark hitting hoops!
Boston, Mitchell (if she learns how to pass/assist), Clark, and now Hull… who will be the fifth player is the question. WONDERFUL to watch the evolution of talented individuals into a contending TEAM. Hang out a little while longer, Kelsey. Your floor general will provide the opportunity for greatness- a gift to everything FEVER.
I read Mitchell may not be happy but I hope she stays with the Fever
This is clickbait. Do not click here
This was a hard watch. To much fluff. Kept repeating the same bait that got me in.
Humiliating comment? I must have missed it. I don’t think Caitlin is about verbally humiliating someone
"How will legends like Taurasi respond to this Next Gen Challenge?" I expect Taurasi's response to this Next Gen Challenge will be to retire.
She's bringing up the team break game like Magic Johnson's trick pass game
Lower life forms don't stand a chance against White Queen Caitlin Clark.
LOL ESPN and all the haters, enjoy the all you can eat buffet of Crow under Glass, with a touch of hot sauce to hide the bitter taste of We told you so !! Caitlin Clark is the real deal!
I have watched DT play since her days at Connecticut.
While she was in WNBA I probably watched her play 3 games.
Since CC has entered I haven’t missed many games with my kids and grandkids!!
DT had an opportunity to welcome CC into the league and blew it!!
Taurasi got a gold medal for warming the bench. You go, girl.😅😅😅
I may be happy,
However, her family must be thrilled.
CAITLIN IS is a FIELD GENERAL, a mastermind at reading the flow of the game.
Taurasi should think about her own .7 ppg at the Olympics before she badmouths CC. No way they fielded the best team for the Olympics.
She's like the female Captain Insano. Opening up a can of whoop A on the WNBA.
😂
Gosh, she's talented, straight, white and pretty attractive, THAT'S why they absolutely hate her! It's similar to Bird/Johnson then Jordan's entry into the NBA! Their fanbase is growing exponentially and other WNBA teams are NOT!❤❤❤😂😂😂😂😂 Wouldn't it be hilarious if all the Fever's games were sold out while the others were still lame! Diane Taurasi is NOW OLD NEWS!
All the Fever games are Sold out home and away and the rest of the Wnba 's teams do not sell out
Yes she special and her team will fallow her all the way
I hate videos like this that gaslight the whole time! Sad. The content has absolutely nothing to do with gaslighting. 👎🏽
Heck ya she can handle it she has team mates she can trust and they trust her to they are gona get down and move in sequence !! Traci has done put her foot in her mouth and now she nows how The Real Goat is and it ant her no more time to step back and let the new comers take it to a higher level !!!!
She has already set the WNBA record for turnovers in a season. Her decent to the "top of the bottom" was most impressive when you consider that she did this with 13 games to go in the regular season...truly remarkable.
She has also set the record for assists for a rookie in a season...with 12 gms left. If she averages 6.5 assists per game over those 12 (she averages 8.3 for the yr) she'll tie the all-time wnba record for assists in a season. Go hate somewhere else. She makes turnovers because she aggressively seeks to make passes other people can't make.
@@admtnic HATE isn't making those bad passes and getting her dribble picked.
The turnovers were the primary reason for her not being an Olympian and will be a permanent detector to all those who really know amd love the game...
The "cult of Catilin" will just have to acknowledge the cracks in their idol...
Indiana coach is a drunk or has sniffing problem Rudolph nose don't lie
You don't know that. I've known people who have that "Rudolph nose" and are not drinkers. There's no way to know when you are standing on the outside looking in. So have some grace.
Have to correct your analogy: “It’s like she’s playing chess and they are playing with rocks and sticks”
She’s just going to get better and better
She dominated the league and this is the first time I have heard her name. Hmmm
Take cheryl miller as adviser to to sides coaching her the whole 40 minutes
Sides needs to shut-up and just go away. FEVER will never realize greatness until they have a good coach.
Did know it was a black lesbian league lol
My goodness they loveeeee labels
Clay Travis is highly skilled at distilling the problem right down to its core. Clay spoke the truth that day. The WNBA needs to see the truth for all that it is. The WNBA then needs to be willing to raise its level of commitment to the sport of basketball.
Just as soon as she bust out 50-60 points on the 🤬all the noise will go away 🏀🏀
Sides is completely inept. Caitlin knows more about than this “Coach” At least she’s stopped trying to make Caitlin into something she’s not!! Still, Sides is an Assistant Defensive Coach at best. To put her in Charge of talented, elite professionals is a disservice to the game, league, team, fans…and herself. I guess I’d go show how stupid I was if someone gave me half a million dollars. At the end of the day, it would sink my soul to know I didn’t earn it.
Now, and I’m sure it’s due to Linn Dunn having an Immense love & crush on Sides (Dunn needs to Retire - Again) Sides is getting a raise. For What??
Making Caitlin take a backside to what made her famous in the first place? All those losses at the beginning of the season fall at Sides feet…Caitlin came straight from being the Best collegiate athlete in history to the W, and Sides was the genius that wanted to Change the #1’s style of play?
Jeesh…if Indiana MUST keep her (I can’t fathom why except maybe because CC looks like she’s broken her in) at least recognize whom do what for the team & when. Sides is an embarrassment. If Indiana is unfortunate enough to Have to deal with her again, and Sides is getting a freaking RAISE 🤦🏻♀️ I think CC & the Team should get raises (I mean, Sides should even give the team a % of her half M salary as THEY saved HER from being the biggest joke & Failure in W history.
IMHO
I am not buying the extended sales pitch. Give it to us straight. Not waiting to get passed all the teasers.
Best analogy I've heard about Caitlin Clark (22). Caitlin is playing chess, and the rest of the wnba is playing checkers. Excluding Angel Sid Reese, she is playing tic-tac-toe.
FAKE HEADLINE... BE BETTER.
Yup. I just hate these click bait titles
