Caitlin Clark..

[Classic Rams]

How quickly my views have changed. I dislike a few players since I started watching the wnba. Haven't missed a Fever game yet.

I don't watch the games. But I do check on scores and news from time to time. Which is a lot more than I used to. I actually watched the last 5 minutes of the Iowa/LSU game. The first time I paid any attention to women's basketball. Still haven't watched WNBA games.

Caitlin Clark is the reason for the huge boost in attendance. You'd have to have tunnel vision to deny that. That is the difference between men and women. In the NBA if there was a hotshot rookie the guys might be a little more physical with the kid. More trash talking with it like "Welcome to the NBA kid". But you won't see the petty jealousy from them. Its a woman thing. They know Caitlin Clark put the WNBA on the map but they won't admit it.

Major upset on Saturday when her team beat the #1 team this year. It was fun watching her get the first rookie triple double the W has ever had. Looking forward to the all-star game July 20 when the W all-stars play the USA team.

Watching the WNBA doesn't work for me because it doesn't hold my interest very long. Watching it reminds me of watching a little league baseball game that none of my sons are playing in.

And I really appreciate the way that women's b-ball is played closer to the rulebook than men's. Trying to watch it for more than 1 Quarter though is the equivalent to taking strong ass sleeping pills.

Was hella fun watching the W all-stars bet Team USA the other night. Looking forward to the rest of the season.

Following a player like Clark, her games are fun to watch. I just love her entertaining style of play. How she runs the court, finds the open player, does a behind the back pass or a football style bomb. And when she hits those long 3-pointers. She just does so much on the court. I'll watch a few of the other games but like Selassie says I can't watch a full game and sometimes it's just background noise. A close game down the stretch is interesting to me.

She now has the hapless Fever team in solid position to make playoffs. Fuck rookie of the year, she is MVP worthy.
Still the haters continue to hate.
Including this one, who refuses to give her any credit

 

[OldSchool]

And still draws flagrant fouls at a ridiculous rate. The hate is real and it's sickening.

 

[IowaRam]

when the season started , I think she was just exhausted ,

played a full season off college basketball , right up to the final game , then it was publicity , talk shows , SNL , then the WNBA draft , then training camp ,

she never got an off season , like the rest of the WNBA players did

until they took that month off over the all star break , or what ever they called it

but since she got that month off , she's been on fire

just wait till next year , when she'll get an entire off season to rest up

 

[Allen2McVay]

And still draws flagrant fouls at a ridiculous rate. The hate is real and it's sickening.

Several sources reported that 17% of the WNBA's Flagrant Fouls this year have been committed against Clark.

That means One-out-of-Six Flagrant Fouls are against ONE of the 144 WNBA players.

....we're actually talking about the WNBA?? CC has already had a major impact on WNBA revenue & media share. No question. She's even got her very own thread on a LA Rams board.
What an incredible player, but equally, what an impact she's had on women's basketball as a whole. The MJ of the WNBA. Prolly get her own Nike deal (if she hasn't already?)

 

[IowaRam]

saw them mention the other day , all Clacks games attendance averages close to 16,000 people , while the rest of the WNBA games averages a little over 8,000 people , with both the LA , and NY teams averaging around 10,000

they were saying how all these WNBA players just need to STFU, because Clark alone is going to earn them all more money

 

[RAMSinLA]

Its fun to watch. and that's what is important One day Clark haters will love her.

Yeah like I've said in previous posts she is literally going to get the players more money by just being there. Don't bite the hand that feeds you. I don't understand the jealousy and hate she gets from some.
