Christ, can we just go back to not talking about the WNBA?

 

[VaCaps Fan]

Just promote Catlin Clark and Angel Reese as the new magic/bird to use this rivalry positively.

The league is in its best position than it has ever been in to succeed and grow, and all they're seemingly trying to do is cannibalize themselves.

Yeah this is a good quote. Of course it was taken out of context by those with hate in their hearts and bad intentions

I saw Magic on Kimmel video on Youtube and he did have the best idea. Larry needs to talk with Caitlin.

Caitlin proving she can be a great player........... against a truly awful opponent,

Check out the Spurs record with Wemby year one and compare it with last year, what do you notice? Rookies don't flip around a bottom feeding organization in their first year, no matter how great they are.

Honestly, when does the wnba season end? May to Sept for regular season then PO. Olympics is late July to August this the team needs to be assembled by mid July.

If the WNBA does shut down, probably good for Clark to get a mental and physical break going from ncaa to wnba in about a month.

Probably will play better after that break.

She's not wrong. As I said, ne BIPOC or LGBTQQIA2S+ player wud not recieve this much attention bekas they're not accepable 2 middle Murica. Bleach demon privilege at it's finest.

Just saying she’s been through an entire ncaa season to the finals then a month between that and wnba season. Don’t think any rookies are on the roster which makes sense.
Clark would benefit from the break.

I get your point, I'm just surprised she wasn't picked given they've selected rookies in previous years.

 

[GKJ]

I know she’s goes through the wringer, but NBC was likely counting on her as there’s essentially no reason to watch that tournament now. Women’s basketball is less competitive than women’s hockey is.

No denying CC is a great shooter and a very good player. But she is not the best women's player ever as the hype would lead you to believe.

No, she’s an entertaining player. That’s what counts right now.

Yeah. I'm not even American and was planning on watching the US women's games.

Probably the other games would be decent. But between the Olympics and FIBA World Cup, the US women have lost 1 game in 40 years.

I don't get this. They are worried she's too popular? They're a niche league with limited exposure and this is their concern? Seems dumb.
