Don't need to she always play a good game and when she don't she make the other players look good that's what you call teamwork not know selfish stuff trying to get no double doubles
@@CougarLand she better than a lot of these other dumb players that y'all be worshiping this is just one game she keeps the fever going whether she is score on that she got that game going on for a win that's what she does for your team not stack pack
CC is a well-rounded player. She performs feats on the court no other rookie does. Catlin is unselfish thereby making everyone on the team better. Clark by all measure is Rookie of the Year. 🌵 👵🏻💕🏀
Me either. I found NBA basketball boring compared to the NHL hockey that I grew up watching. When Clark, Mitchell, Hull and Boston are doing their thing on the court together it is magical to watch. Like when Gretzky and Kuri were on the ice in their prime, the playmaking was unbelievable. The behind the back pass from Clark to Boston OMG. The speed of the women's game compared to the men's, I much prefer watching a woman's game. And the things CC can do on the court, she is so exciting to watch whether she shoots the ball herself or sends a dime to one of her teammates and they score. There are other really good women in the league but I much prefer watching CC do her thing. What will she come up with next?
@@LloydChristmas-vx2wh *Caitlin Clark has many dozens of world records from her college days. Let me know if you can find any WNBA players with half of the number of records and best of the best actions!! You won't!!! Stop trying to gaslight someone who knows a hundred time more than you ever will.* *And, on top of that, she's already smashing many WNBA records, including nearly all the rookie's records and already a bunch of WNBA records!!*
Yes, they seem to be getting better because they were actually at the bottom of the league prior to getting Kaitlyn. They just needed a leader that would actually allow him to shine and actually buffer up their weaknesses and actually showcase their talents because they got drafted in the first place if they weren’t good, they just needed a lead to take charge and to direct and it actually helps that she’s not a ball hog that she will pastor her other teammates because she realizes their team not just one person with the ball.
I, for one, have never even thought of watching a WNBA game until now, but Caitlin Clark is truly mesmerizing! Her passing game is unreal and consistently has me stunned. I think being left of that Olympic team was a blessing in disguise. It’s like she’s been shot out of a cannon after a well-deserved and much-needed break. I’d say she’s adjusted to playing with “grown women” just fine, and it is a joy to watch!
Yup, Mitchell needs the Fever however as much as the Fever need her. If she wants to be a part of something special, and continue to get that spacing, then you stay and be a part of a team that is turning in to a wagon before everyones eyes. Not to mention sell outs everywhere you go, easier to grow her own brand. She would be absolutely brain dead to leave in the offseason
Yep Mitchell struggle a bit with Clarks passing but now she can understand how to CC thinks Mitchell game has been unbelievable. The whole team has got better now understanding what to expect when CC has the ball. Mitchell is an allstar.
The fever should keep Mitchell and release or trade N. Smith for FA German standout S. Sabally this off season, now that's a team with championship clarity.
Clark, Boston, Mitchell and Hull are amazing! If they can stop missing so many shots at the rim, they will be hard to beat in the playoffs. Clark is definitely ROTY. I love watching the Fever play when the players are in sync.
Clark, Hull, and Mitchell are the trifecta on the Fever team. So fun to watch. CC breaking four ankles at once with the behind the back pass was pure genius.
Until I first saw Clark. I never watched the NBA or WNBA. Now. I'm a fan. ALWAYS looking for the FEVER games. Is GOAT rookie saying too much? GO CAITLIN.
As far as Rookie of the Year, that debate is over. Caitlin's all-around game surpasses Angel's. And like Caitlin said, she can't win games by herself it takes a team .So, it's going to be a collective team effort that will determine how far the Fever will go. Good signs, though, as the other Fever players who have stepped up and elevated their game. Still areas to work on, but they sort those out they can only get better. Go Fever ❤
The fever are ballin!! The big three (Clark, Mitchell and hull) carrying this team, but let's not forget they the women down in the paint, Boston always solid but Smith, Smith is an animal, much props to her hustling to the rock.
Have watched CC all through Iowa years, and now in the W. She is amazing in so many ways. Her 3-pt. shot has suffered a bit now due to much more aggressive D from opponents. But her energy is contagious, she never misses at the line, and her assists are other-worldly!! ROTY !!!!
Clark is the most exciting player to watch and makes the Fever go. The Fever have the players and the confidence to give any team headaches. Their starting five is as good as any starting five in the league. Clark is without question the rookie mvp. Aj Wilson is the mvp at this point.
I watched Caitlin Clark on TV last night while baking cookies. She was stellar as always! I respect Simone Biles, too. She’s an excellent gymnast! 🏀🤸♀️
I’m a Brit and love basketball. I’ve enjoyed watching high school ball, both boy and girl. Started watching WNBA this season, it’s more like European basketball unlike the NBA. However i cannot fathom why the attitude and reaction of some people in the States. Perhaps someone stateside can explain to me why Clark is not the best rookie, no argument. Her personal stats exceed any other rookie, her assists are a clear indication that she makes the team work, her constant movement creates space for her teammates. (Difficult to quantify) Her effect on the performance of the team now that they are in tune is spectacular. She plays the game the way i enjoyed in my youth, five players playing in unison for each other, no egos.
Thank you David for recognizing and appreciating Caitlin Clark's style and positive impact on basketball in general. It's understandable that you would find the hatred, and vitiol directed at her a little bewildering. Unfortunately, much of it is a direct result of racism. Add to that, jealousy, envy, religion, and sexual orientation. The league is predominantly Black, and lesbian. Almost all of the best players in their 29 year history have been one or the other, or both. Because Caitlin Clark is straight, White, and Catholic, she doesn't fit in with the majority of the crowd. Add to that, her unprecedented endorsement deals, and the jealousy, and envy comes into play. Her popularity and notoriety are an anomaly in women's basketball, and women's sports. Her skills and playing style speaks for itself. It's must see TV. While the league has been floundering since it's inception, she has brought millions of new fans to the league. Overnight, she made women's basketball relevant. The game has always been asthetically boring. Her style is modern, exciting, and generational. It's box office. As entertaining as she is on the court, she is even more compelling off the court. She exemplifies what a celebrity athlete should be. She is humble, gracious, kind, unselfish, generous, well mannered, and eloquently spoken. When her haters denigrate her, she responds by praising them. When they win, she defers all the credit to her teammates. When they lose, she takes full accountability. In her off time she champions children's charities, and visits children's hospitals. She loves children. She stated that she was once that little kid that looked up to the legends of the game, and that they inspired her dreams to become a basketball player. While many of the other players spend time self aggrandizing themselves, she is at the gym, or doing charity work. All the while remaining quiet, and humble. Rather than looking to her as an example to learn, and better themselves, they elect to be spiteful instead. Skilled, humble, and classy, apparently is very marketable, and likable. Rather than emulating what actually works, the haters can't get out of their own way. She has shown them the simple blueprint for success. You can lead a horse to water, but you can't make it drink. Despite the unreasonable hate, she is directly responsible for all the auxiliary financial growth and benefits that the league is currently experiencing. Benefits that are going to increase everyones portfolio. Rather than being grateful, they instead choose to be angry and venomous. Her only crimes are that she is White, straight, humble, and classy.
@@Mel-dd1ce thank you for taking the time to provide an explanation, it’s much appreciated. Now that it has been explained i find that i am even more irritated and sad that people can be so unkind and venal. I’ve played aggressive sports involving serious contact with other players, if it’s in the laws of the game then you accept it. However when I played basketball in school and college it was deemed a non contact sport, meaning that no deliberate contact was acceptable. Yet here we are with it’s an aggressive game and you have to accept roughhouse treatment. Sadly there are some spectators who want and expect ‘rough’ treatment in their game. I, unashamedly, want to return to a game of skill and team work. I know trash talking and posturing are part of the modern game in the States, even in junior leagues, not for me, sorry!
Yes Angel Reese! Caitlin Clark is the real reason! Why The WNBA is Flourishing! You have a small part along the others but be honest many came to see Caitlin Clark the Generational Player that is down to earth, humble, classy, charitable, and it isn't about her breaking records she couldn't care less she care about basketball, her teammates shinning and just competitive mamba mentality, work is work, play is play! She doesn't look for attention or R.O.Y/MVP she rather see her teammates get the glory!!!
No need for that! Both superstars and Angels merch was the second fastest selling! Cc and Angel are very impressive rookies with their impact on the fans and on the court! CC is my no.1 tho 🔥❤️
@@silviemcewan5193Impact on the fans the same, you are kidding aren't you. They play one another Friday. The seats for the Chicago game tonight was general seats as low as $25 each and the most expensive was $650. For Friday night game against the Fever range for general seats $125 to $2500 for the most expensive. That's three times more than tonight's game. If her impact was anywhere close to CC her nightly tickets would be higher. Has Reese had any sellouts or forced the opposing team's venue to be changed, I don't think so. Reese thinking that she has the same impact on the sport is nothing more than a figment of her imagination just like yours.
*The opposing teams will never ever figure out Clark game! It's like playing Green Light/Red Light, you will never know when it's Green Light/Red Light unless you can read minds!*
Can you imagine what her assist record would be if the women she makes these brilliant passes to, would actually score??? Boston seems to screw the pooch on more of these passes than the others combined. CC will only continue to get better and she will continue to lift the game of her team mates!
I wouldn't complain to much about Boston, she's a very intelligent player. Most players wouldn't understand that they could get the ball in that situation. Fever's developing their game and will be even better in the play offs.
This is what Magic and Bird gave to the NBA, aside from their rivalry. The PASSING! This got their teammates involved and made everyone around them better. Haters better wake up. Even without the efficient scoring (which will come), by involving her teammates, CC made the Fever not only dangerous but I believe can go deep in the playoffs. The win against the SUN shows their resiliency and now they know they can win those close, physical and pressure packed games.
Prior to this season... I had never even watched highlights of a WNBA game... Next week, I will be buying tickets and GOING to see a WNBA (Fever) game... ...and that is the *CC* effect !!! 💯
She’ll be a legend once she’s done playing. Just need to cut her turnovers but she’s great. She keeps improving. Getting better and make teammates better.
She is a powerhouse!!! She said she is 22 but feels like 10 playing basketball!!!! She said she just loves playing basketball and my Lord she does it to a tee!!!! Congratulations Caitlin you have proved all your playing when you were younger has paid off!!! So proud of you and your teammates!!! You guys put on a great show!!! Keep it up!!! 👏👏👏.. 💪💪.. 🎉🎉.. 🏀🏀🏀......
I think Mitchell is more of the McHale of CC. Lexi Hull, I would humbly disagree, more of Dennis Johnson, the one who guarded the hotshot guards of the opposing team and scored consistently on jumpers.
@@buddyforbes7157 Where are the calls for an investigation into all of the flagrant fouls against Caitlyn Clark? These jealous women are trying to injure caitlin, probably bad enough to knock her out of the entire wnba. There needs to be a loud call for an investigation! The flagrant fouls against Caitlyn in last night's game against the sky were simply obscene!!!!
@@bobbeeding8384If she wants to build something special and establish a winning culture first then that’s the Fever but if she wants to go where she can get more shots and win championships then that’s on her.
all the haters, enjoy the all you can eat buffet of Crow under with a touch of hot sauce to hide the bitter taste of We told you so !! Caitlin ( The Kraken) Clark will become the face of the WNBA ,without uttering a single word of hate but by playing elite ball between the lines! And love for the game
Because she is a big part of their success no disrespect to the other women on the team, but if you take off Caitlin I don’t see the Fever winning this many games.
@@LeetraviusMcKay-q6m She is a big part of their success, but it IS being disrespectful to the "other" players to not acknowledge their great play, especially in games when you only go 3 for 12 beyond the arc. I'm sure CC would acknowledge this of herself. You don't need to make excuses for her.
If the Fever overtake the Aces, Caitlin will have to seriously be considered for MVP. Even if they come within a game or two. If they somehow outlast the Aces in the playoffs, she could win it. From cellar dwellers to playoff contenders is a strong statement. Wilson is on a stacked team, and takes considerably more shots per game. And yet, they are struggling against much lower standing teams. It doesn't look like she is making her teammates better. Caitlin doesn't score as much, because she takes far fewer shots. As a floor general, she has her team running and hustling, and involving them all into the flow of the game. She rewards them with unselfish passes. Her very nature is to build confidence and team chemistry. She doesn't denigrate anybody, ever. She praises her teammates at every opportunity, and takes full accountability when they don't perform well. The Fever look like a team that's rejuvenated, inspired, and on a mission. They look like a cohesive, happy unit. They seem to understand their roles, and are embracing the challenges ahead of them. Even coach Sides seems to be learning and adapting to the chemistry of her team. The Olympic break was a very timely reprieve for them. They got a much deserved rest, and some quality practices under their belt. Rooting for them Friday against the Sky. Go Fever! Play hard, and keep improving.
The Pass From Behind Was Something Else, The Two Defenders were Ok, We Got Her Where's The 🏀 😮😮 Caitlin Clark Talent 🌟 Her Discipline Resilience And Team Player Leadership Are Making The Team Better and Better Every Game strong contenders
Again I just want to say I never watched a second of women’s basketball until Caitlin Clark. Didn’t know any of the other players but now I do. All so talented. Enjoy watching now. Just have to give up the hate.
Caitlin's behind the back pass to Aliyah blew my mind, and then I died laughing at the look on Carrington's face as she wondered where in the hell the ball was. I was wondering if she was related to Wile E. Coyote, because it was the same look that he always had after the Roadrunner watched him face-plant into a canyon wall. The pass and Carrington's reaction was so hilarious that I didn't mind that Aliyah missed her shot after the pass. Comedy Gold! Kudos for tossing flowers at Kelsey and Lexie. I loved the post-game interview that Kelsey, Lexie, and Caitlin had after their win. Lexie: "I tried to get my hands on as many balls as possible." ... pause... Caitlin: {{{Starts snickering while Lexie turns beet red as she realizes how it could be interpreted}}} Kelsey: {{{Looks like she doesn't know whether to laugh or crawl under the table}}} I'm wondering if any of the reporters had to speed-dial their therapists after the interview ended. 🤔
We won the Super Bowl Against NSQ and the Liberty. Then we won a 2nd Super Bowl against the Storm and then tonight, the trifecta! 3 Time Super Bowl winners!
Clark reminds me of Messi at that age- just brilliant. Even if you don’t follow the sport, watching the highlights is pure enjoyment. One has to constantly remind oneself that these are all professional players, the best, yet she moves around them as if it was a play ground. As I said reminds me of Leo Messi at that age. Beautiful. ❤
Thank you for including Mitchell and Hull. CC is a phenom no doubt but basketball is a team sport and these other Fever players are remarkable in their own. When this team "clicks" and plays as a single unit, watch out, it'll be nuts! GO FEVER!!
I understand that this is about CC. You mentioned Several of her supporting cast; unfortunately you missed the opportunity to highlight the major defensive play of Temi !!. This is a team sport offensively and defensively. Temi made a big impact on this game as well. Just remember to give flowers to all that due theirs!!!
This is the line up Sides should put out there, Caitlin, Lexie, Kelsey, Temi, and Aliyah. That line up is a fast moving solid line up. The will be able to run and gun, and most of the league cannot keep up with the young legs the Fever have. If you notice on the 2 of the last 3 wins Lexie Hull, Kelsey Mitchell, and Caitlin Clark basically ran the other team out of the gym. Aliyah Boston, and Temi Fagbenle are the big's that can clog up the middle, Lexie is also something of a Lock Down defender who will box out for rebounds, same with Temi. So I am seeing the possibility of the Fever and Mercury possibly tying at the end of the season and the Fever hold the tie breaker having swept the Mercury this season. If you look at it there is only 1 team left that they haven't defeated in the last few years and that is the Aces and they have 1 game left against them, if successful against them they will have defeated each team higher in the standings and ended the losing streaks against those teams. We will see on September 11th or the 13th, all the need to do is win one of 2 games. I would love to see them win both is it possible one doesn't know but it can happen. No one thought the Fever would be in the position they are in now, having defeated the Liberty, Storm, Lynx, each once and sweeping the Mercury out right.
How would you describe Caitlin Clark's game?
Don't need to she always play a good game and when she don't she make the other players look good that's what you call teamwork not know selfish stuff trying to get no double doubles
An artist perfecting Her Craft! 😃
Team first, defense involved, playmaker.
She was 3 for 12 from 3pt and had 7 TO's so definitely not her best..
@@CougarLand she better than a lot of these other dumb players that y'all be worshiping this is just one game she keeps the fever going whether she is score on that she got that game going on for a win that's what she does for your team not stack pack
That back pass was insane.. the two defenders were like “Where the f is the ball?? 😂
Even her team mate was like "How the fuck did i get the ball?"! 😂
a la Harlem Globe Trotters. They were totally clowned. Carrington's going to dream about that one.lol
It just shows where CC's skill is compared to most of the league. She's miles ahead of most of those women.
@@FrankHaney-b9y You're right! She wasn't sure what to do then. She looked for someone to pass it to.
For a girl you mean because yeah 😂😂
CLARK is ROOKIE MVP. Do not deny her of what she deserves like thy did in the Olympics.
She's more than the veterans 'tho rookie..😃❤️👍🇵🇭
CC is a well-rounded player. She performs feats on the court no other rookie does. Catlin is unselfish thereby making everyone on the team better. Clark by all measure is Rookie of the Year. 🌵 👵🏻💕🏀
She wanted nothing to do with Satins play ground. N got some rest.
@@derekholmes4792 There is a place where people play with fabric?
Personally I’m glad she didn’t go. She needed the rest. It was long in coming. She came back refreshed and ready to play.
Yes Caitlin is a tough cookie. Let’s GO GIRL ❤. You can do this. Cheers from Bangkok 🌹😎🇹🇭
Amazing she's got fans all around the world, even in Bangkok!
And from Pattaya 😂
And Cannes - France
And Philippines-🇵🇭
Her passing is what gets me all excited. 😆 and when she clowns 🤡 defenders.
CC strikes again, respect from Melbourne Australia 🇦🇺
I never watched a women's before CC. Now I am hooked.

Please protect Caitlin Clark❤. Hopefully no more bullying and physically harming her.
Bullying? This is what has been driving her, including retribution. As she dominates those bullies, they will kiss the ring.
The soft misogyny of thinking she needs anyone's help.
That is such a woman thing to say.
*Caitlin Clark made Carrington look like a headless chicken running around. It was beautiful!*
Within three years Caitlin Clark will be the best player in the WNBA. In my opinion she's already top five
It won't take her that much time...
*Three years???? She was the best player before she even stepped a foot on the WNBA floor!!*

Caitlin isn’t one of the most exciting players, she IS THE MOST EXCITING PLAYER!!! Look at the attendance for her games, no one is even close!!!!
That pass was an absolute thing of beauty.
You go girl. Caitlin is breaking ankles💪🏽😁
Watching each player stepping up to contribute in a significant way is exciting and a greast sign. They are only getting better.
Yes, they seem to be getting better because they were actually at the bottom of the league prior to getting Kaitlyn. They just needed a leader that would actually allow him to shine and actually buffer up their weaknesses and actually showcase their talents because they got drafted in the first place if they weren’t good, they just needed a lead to take charge and to direct and it actually helps that she’s not a ball hog that she will pastor her other teammates because she realizes their team not just one person with the ball.

Can you imagine how far they would be if they didn’t have to battle the Coach Sides torpedo???
Exactly... Sides is the Fever's greatest obstacle!!!
Lexie Hull with 6 offensive rebounds and 4-6 from 3pt
🔥🔥🔥
Phenomenal ❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥
They won’t like that Simone was in house for the Fever and to watch Caitlin perform.
Who’s they?
And don’t celebrities show up for other teams games as well?
I don't watch WNBA but because of exciting play moves of Clark and her team, first thing to check in youtube are their games.
As far as Rookie of the Year, that debate is over. Caitlin's all-around game surpasses Angel's. And like Caitlin said, she can't win games by herself it takes a team .So, it's going to be a collective team effort that will determine how far the Fever will go. Good signs, though, as the other Fever players who have stepped up and elevated their game. Still areas to work on, but they sort those out they can only get better. Go Fever ❤
Pressure either bursts pipes or makes diamonds and I’m feeling like a new diamond 💎
She is picking off the olympians one by one.
Yeah, but they can go home to their gold medals.
She 2ill get hers too
The fever are ballin!! The big three (Clark, Mitchell and hull) carrying this team, but let's not forget they the women down in the paint, Boston always solid but Smith, Smith is an animal, much props to her hustling to the rock.
BOW BOW BOW. These girls are playing some ball.
She's not just inspiring young girls, she's inspiring boys to be professional basketball players as well.
She definely had made the wnba more popular. She had a rough game last night, and her team still won.

You have a small part along the others but be honest many came to see Caitlin Clark the Generational Player that is down to earth, humble, classy, charitable, and it isn't about her breaking records she couldn't care less she care about basketball, her teammates shinning and just competitive mamba mentality, work is work, play is play! She doesn't look for attention or R.O.Y/MVP she rather see her teammates get the glory!!!
No need for that! Both superstars and Angels merch was the second fastest selling! Cc and Angel are very impressive rookies with their impact on the fans and on the court! CC is my no.1 tho 🔥❤️
@@silviemcewan5193Then why did Angel Reese and her fans connect themselves to Caitlin Clark and her fans?
@@silviemcewan5193Impact on the fans the same, you are kidding aren't you. They play one another Friday. The seats for the Chicago game tonight was general seats as low as $25 each and the most expensive was $650. For Friday night game against the Fever range for general seats $125 to $2500 for the most expensive. That's three times more than tonight's game. If her impact was anywhere close to CC her nightly tickets would be higher. Has Reese had any sellouts or forced the opposing team's venue to be changed, I don't think so. Reese thinking that she has the same impact on the sport is nothing more than a figment of her imagination just like yours.
@@silviemcewan5193 What they won’t tell you is how much merch each one sells. I’d wager that Clark out sells Reese by a very wide margin.
Didn't start a podcast as a rookie. Dumbest shit ever.
Fever's hungry for sure! Even Smith contributed with 10 points!
Caitlin Clark is the most exciting rookie and ROTY🎉🎉🎉 for real!
Great 3 pointer. 💯Caitlin Clark.
I’m not a Carrington fan but she had a good defensive game.
She did and then Caitlin figured it out
Great team effort 👍
*The opposing teams will never ever figure out Clark game! It's like playing Green Light/Red Light, you will never know when it's Green Light/Red Light unless you can read minds!*
Can you imagine what her assist record would be if the women she makes these brilliant passes to, would actually score??? Boston seems to screw the pooch on more of these passes than the others combined. CC will only continue to get better and she will continue to lift the game of her team mates!
I wouldn't complain to much about Boston, she's a very intelligent player. Most players wouldn't understand that they could get the ball in that situation. Fever's developing their game and will be even better in the play offs.
Double double record and could shut up Angel fans
probably could make an hour long highlight real of cc teammates missing wide open shots/layups from one of her passes...
They're getting better at catching them now they have to put it in the hoop.😆
she does things that even her teammates are surprised
Simone Biles and Caitlin Clark are exemplary individuals in excellence in their craft and in dedication to their faith.
Blessed be God. Amen ✝️🙏🏻
CAITLYN COOKED THEM ALL INCLUDING HATERS SPECIALLY THIS SHERYL SWOOPS SHE KNOWS BASKETBALL BUT IGNORANT
Sheryl Swoope’s knowledge of basketball pales in comparison to her pure ignorance and display of racism.
This is what Magic and Bird gave to the NBA, aside from their rivalry. The PASSING! This got their teammates involved and made everyone around them better. Haters better wake up. Even without the efficient scoring (which will come), by involving her teammates, CC made the Fever not only dangerous but I believe can go deep in the playoffs. The win against the SUN shows their resiliency and now they know they can win those close, physical and pressure packed games.
ROTY goes to CC, no one else comes close from this rookie class.
You double team CC she will make you pay for it!!!!!!!!
RoTY and MVP.
CatlenClark is here to shake an bake an they do it on the floor
When a girl grows up playing sports against her brothers , there really isnt much that can intimidate after that !!!!
Prior to this season... I had never even watched highlights of a WNBA game...
Next week, I will be buying tickets and GOING to see a WNBA (Fever) game...
...and that is the *CC* effect !!! 💯
Kelsey Mitchell!🧨🧨🧨 🔥 🔥🔥
CC is making her teammates better. She is like Larry Bird or Magic Johnson. She is unique in the W. She is even helping make Lexi a real threat.
Caitlin Cooks
She’ll be a legend once she’s done playing. Just need to cut her turnovers but she’s great. She keeps improving. Getting better and make teammates better.
Exactly she just goes too fast
Boston had a good game too!
She is a powerhouse!!! She said she is 22 but feels like 10 playing basketball!!!! She said she just loves playing basketball and my Lord she does it to a tee!!!! Congratulations Caitlin you have proved all your playing when you were younger has paid off!!! So proud of you and your teammates!!! You guys put on a great show!!! Keep it up!!! 👏👏👏.. 💪💪.. 🎉🎉.. 🏀🏀🏀......
Caitlin Clark is to Lexi Hull what Larry Bird was to Kevin McHale.
I think Mitchell is more of the McHale of CC. Lexi Hull, I would humbly disagree, more of Dennis Johnson, the one who guarded the hotshot guards of the opposing team and scored consistently on jumpers.
@@buddyforbes7157 Good points!
@@buddyforbes7157 Where are the calls for an investigation into all of the flagrant fouls against Caitlyn Clark? These jealous women are trying to injure caitlin, probably bad enough to knock her out of the entire wnba. There needs to be a loud call for an investigation! The flagrant fouls against Caitlyn in last night's game against the sky were simply obscene!!!!
The Fever have to learn to not let up when they get a lead. If the opponent is down, keep them down.
Kelsey is always badass! Caitlin is always a huge part of the team as well. There is a lot of great talent on that team, next year LOOK OUT!
Kelsey deserves some credit!!!! She can hoop!
Hopefully we don't lose Kelsey!
@@bobbeeding8384If she wants to build something special and establish a winning culture first then that’s the Fever but if she wants to go where she can get more shots and win championships then that’s on her.
@@LeetraviusMcKay-q6mShe stays with Caitlin if she's smart. Fever will be a top team soon, very soon even.
all the haters, enjoy the all you can eat buffet of Crow under with a touch of hot sauce to hide the bitter taste of We told you so !! Caitlin ( The Kraken) Clark will become the face of the WNBA ,without uttering a single word of hate but by playing elite ball between the lines! And love for the game
Indiana is fun to watch, but you don't have to lay it on so thick. We get it - You really, really, really like Caitlin Clark!😍
Because she is a big part of their success no disrespect to the other women on the team, but if you take off Caitlin I don’t see the Fever winning this many games.
@@LeetraviusMcKay-q6m She is a big part of their success, but it IS being disrespectful to the "other" players to not acknowledge their great play, especially in games when you only go 3 for 12 beyond the arc. I'm sure CC would acknowledge this of herself. You don't need to make excuses for her.
@@freder8569I never made any excuses for her. I criticized her game when she shot too much
LAY IT ON!
@freder8569 - Angel Reese.. is that you??👀😂
If the Fever overtake the Aces, Caitlin will have to seriously be considered for MVP. Even if they come within a game or two. If they somehow outlast the Aces in the playoffs, she could win it. From cellar dwellers to playoff contenders is a strong statement. Wilson is on a stacked team, and takes considerably more shots per game. And yet, they are struggling against much lower standing teams. It doesn't look like she is making her teammates better. Caitlin doesn't score as much, because she takes far fewer shots. As a floor general, she has her team running and hustling, and involving them all into the flow of the game. She rewards them with unselfish passes. Her very nature is to build confidence and team chemistry. She doesn't denigrate anybody, ever. She praises her teammates at every opportunity, and takes full accountability when they don't perform well. The Fever look like a team that's rejuvenated, inspired, and on a mission. They look like a cohesive, happy unit. They seem to understand their roles, and are embracing the challenges ahead of them. Even coach Sides seems to be learning and adapting to the chemistry of her team. The Olympic break was a very timely reprieve for them. They got a much deserved rest, and some quality practices under their belt. Rooting for them Friday against the Sky. Go Fever! Play hard, and keep improving.
That was a bad aZZ pass to AB, we all have to admit it!
She has everyone in the game turning their heads and strategizing against her, and she is in fact, taking full advantage of it!
She will handle the pressure just fine. After all, she has a real good team supporting her.
The Pass From Behind Was Something Else, The Two Defenders were Ok, We Got Her Where's The 🏀 😮😮
Caitlin Clark Talent 🌟 Her Discipline Resilience And Team Player Leadership Are Making The Team Better and Better Every Game strong contenders
Yeah right 👉 DC got cooked and shook by the point God Caitlin Clark DC got owned by the point God Caitlin
Again I just want to say I never watched a second of women’s basketball until Caitlin Clark. Didn’t know any of the other players but now I do. All so talented. Enjoy watching now. Just have to give up the hate.
CC is the MJ of this era....a generational talent not yet seen in the Woman's game..No doubt
Fever will make the play offs ! Because of CC I am now a WNBA fan!
Caitlin's behind the back pass to Aliyah blew my mind, and then I died laughing at the look on Carrington's face as she wondered where in the hell the ball was. I was wondering if she was related to Wile E. Coyote, because it was the same look that he always had after the Roadrunner watched him face-plant into a canyon wall. The pass and Carrington's reaction was so hilarious that I didn't mind that Aliyah missed her shot after the pass. Comedy Gold!
Kudos for tossing flowers at Kelsey and Lexie. I loved the post-game interview that Kelsey, Lexie, and Caitlin had after their win.
Lexie: "I tried to get my hands on as many balls as possible."
... pause...
Caitlin: {{{Starts snickering while Lexie turns beet red as she realizes how it could be interpreted}}}
Kelsey: {{{Looks like she doesn't know whether to laugh or crawl under the table}}}
I'm wondering if any of the reporters had to speed-dial their therapists after the interview ended. 🤔
We won the Super Bowl Against NSQ and the Liberty. Then we won a 2nd Super Bowl against the Storm and then tonight, the trifecta! 3 Time Super Bowl winners!
That was wild corny 😂
There are 2 words that describe CC…Humble GOAT.😅
Clark reminds me of Messi at that age- just brilliant. Even if you don’t follow the sport, watching the highlights is pure enjoyment. One has to constantly remind oneself that these are all professional players, the best, yet she moves around them as if it was a play ground. As I said reminds me of Leo Messi at that age. Beautiful. ❤
Thank you for including Mitchell and Hull. CC is a phenom no doubt but basketball is a team sport and these other Fever players are remarkable in their own. When this team "clicks" and plays as a single unit, watch out, it'll be nuts! GO FEVER!!
CC is one tough lady, you got this.
And caitlin has a great smile. Keep smiling CC.
I understand that this is about CC. You mentioned Several of her supporting cast; unfortunately you missed the opportunity to highlight the major defensive play of Temi !!. This is a team sport offensively and defensively. Temi made a big impact on this game as well. Just remember to give flowers to all that due theirs!!!
All the fever ladies are killing it! 🔥
Notice how many young girls are in the crowd wearing a CC jersey. Future stars
I love a really close game. It keeps you on the edge of your seat.
Started watching the fever bc of Caitlyn Clark now I only watch bc of Kelsey Mitchell 🤦🏾♂️🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥she’s a hooper
I am so happy that Pistol Pete Maravich has graced us with his presence again, and even more so that he’s chosen a female character this time.
ROTY? Fvck that…she’s an MVP Candidate in my book.
Cheering Fantastic CC from Manila!!!
Yes! Let us please not acknowledge Kelsi Mitchell. That woman deserves alot more attention. She has been on fire all season!
Definitely her teammates are on their toes to receive her passes! Beyond impressive!🏀
Best recent male or female talent. Always expecting something exciting to happen in ALL aspects of her game.
CC is superb..will they the make the playoffs???? The Fever are playing well..keep it up....
I got to say the greatest the gymnast of all time Simone BILES, THE GREATEST WOMEN BASKETBALL PLAYER OF ALL TIME CC SURE DOES LOOK THAT WAY
This is the line up Sides should put out there, Caitlin, Lexie, Kelsey, Temi, and Aliyah. That line up is a fast moving solid line up. The will be able to run and gun, and most of the league cannot keep up with the young legs the Fever have. If you notice on the 2 of the last 3 wins Lexie Hull, Kelsey Mitchell, and Caitlin Clark basically ran the other team out of the gym. Aliyah Boston, and Temi Fagbenle are the big's that can clog up the middle, Lexie is also something of a Lock Down defender who will box out for rebounds, same with Temi. So I am seeing the possibility of the Fever and Mercury possibly tying at the end of the season and the Fever hold the tie breaker having swept the Mercury this season.
If you look at it there is only 1 team left that they haven't defeated in the last few years and that is the Aces and they have 1 game left against them, if successful against them they will have defeated each team higher in the standings and ended the losing streaks against those teams. We will see on September 11th or the 13th, all the need to do is win one of 2 games. I would love to see them win both is it possible one doesn't know but it can happen. No one thought the Fever would be in the position they are in now, having defeated the Liberty, Storm, Lynx, each once and sweeping the Mercury out right.
