If Caitlin is not the best rookie, why does the league defend her like no other player (much less rookie) in the league. Despite this and the brutal schedule they were put through to start the year, her stats are better than Taurasi as a rookie and Caitlin runs the team and passes and shoots the ball in such a special way. This gaslighting knows no bounds.
Not the best rookie, yet she’s the fastest rookie in history to record 200pts 75 assists and 75 rebounds. She’s on pace to break so many records by seasons end it’s wild. Also the team play will factor in, and if Clark’s got the fever at 20 wins she’s not only taking ROTY but she will finish top 5 in the MVP race. If the season ended today she has the Fever in the playoffs. Reese can’t say ANY of these things. And DD’s are not enough when you shoot 30% from under the basket.
If Caitlin beets Seimones rookie scoring record which she’s on pace to do.. I think she’s a lock for rookie of the year especially with her rebounds and assists the way they are…
It should be obvious to everyone at this point that this league does not care abt the game of bball nearly as much as the social media clicks they are getting
Aside from having the best stats, Caitlin is the leader of her team. She also leads the league in being blitzed? That’s the whole league, not just the rookies.
She is being guarded like a dangerous player. In her face from the time she starts driving the ball. This last game was a turning point as they are starting to figure it out. You’re probably going to see a much better Indiana team moving forward.
If you look at advanced shooting stats Clark is at 49% eFG and 56% TS. Those stats take into effect the balance of 2 and 3 point shots. A lot of people look at overall shooting % but a 3 is worth 50% more than a 2. A 35% 3 pt shooter is better than 52% 2 pt shooter. Do the math. Clark is way better than any other rookie if you understand the game.
Easy to get offensive numbers when you’re the primary ball handler, Reese leads all rookies in defensive ratings across the board, unless u don’t value that.
@@jeangrey5952 I don’t value defensive ratings. If I did I’d have to believe that Larry Bird was a better defender than Michael Jordan. The stat favors rebounds and big players. One of the best NBA defenders Joe Dumars has worse ratings than most players but was consistently voted all nba defense because he was a great defender. His peers knew the stats were BS.
Double-Double is hype!! Celebrate her when Reese can pull a triple-double and can do more than grab her own offense boards bc she can’t make a simple layup
@@Bangs_Theory You are talking of a rookie iner 15th game with a team that doesn't pass to her and a coach that doesn't help her. Wait for a few more games or at the end of the season. Nobody yet has a triple double except Alyssa Thomas and Layshia Clarendon in the 2024 season and you expect a rookie that is hampered by her team and coach to do it?
@@St.MauriceActually after the 11 games in 20 days stretch, they have only lost once and her percentage of the last few games is around 45% which is excellent in this league, did you know that?. Now the Fever is at a playoff spot while the Chicago Sky isn't
Ridiculous! Did you not see AR in the last game against the Fever? This ranking is NOT aging well. CC is the Maestro. No one comes close. She suffered early from Sides and culture shock from her teammates. She will dominate from here on out. Cameron Brink? YAWN.
For a front court player shooting in the high 30%'s is horrible. Reese rebounding numbers are padded due to all of her misses. Clark is obviously better all around. She rebounds, passes, scores in and out and plays defense.
Most of her rebounds are off her own misses thats just stupid. If CC teammates would pass to her her stats would be off the hook. Mitchell is a real problem on the fever, she doesnt play as a team she is a ball hog and seems to be concerned about her own stats rather than trying to play as a team.
Wins and loses are not what they look at for rookie of the year because a win or lose is a teams doing not 1 player it is about that singular players use your head
@@brandonleemoss of course she is . its not even close .. she is breaking every rookie record while having by far the most defensive pressure than anyone EVER ....

Omg turnovers........its the only argument people like you that hate her just to hate her use but I just showed you that argument is trash. So......
Reese at 1 makes sense until yesterday. CC already is tied with Turasi for 20 point games. The record is 7. Clark still has 25 games left. She will probably have 15 20 point games before it’s over.
@@brandonleemossyeah constant at missing her own layups and rebounding them. I have absolutely nothing against her, but her actual basketball skills don’t even sniff Clark’s. She’s a hustle player, and players like that are needed, but she’s not talented. We are talking about apples and oranges.
I can see Clark separating herself from the field as the season goes on. I think Reese is playing well but can see her stats stay stagnant where they are. If Clark's team gets better I can see them getting those assists they've been fumbling. I can see Clark start putting together double doubles and possibly 2 or 3 triple doubles by the end of the season.
Bro I’ve been watching for 3 weeks and you’re losing me on Reese over Clark on ROY! When Reese starts getting picked up full court with face to face coverage then we’ll talk but a take like that is blasphemy. lol

@@jeangrey5952 Damn! You are so blinded by your Reeses adoration or Clark hate that you actually watch reality and see a different thing - Clark is the one being blitzed, guarded from 94 feet, trapped, and being applied the Jordan Rules.

@@jeangrey5952they JUST figured out how to set halfway decent screens for her in the Sky gsme. Before that they either didn't bother or turned out of them before they had a chace to do any good.
@@brandonleemoss At first they were double teaming her and picking her up 94 ft. They haven't been doing that now because they figured out her game.

Watching Clark and Boston's chemistry develop is fun , watching her and Mitchell play off each other is fun as well. This team gone give coaches fits defensively in August. And Reece is killing the vets on the boards, they better pray she don't get a midrange and perfect that lil scoop shot she is doing. Yeah they gone have to be guarded differently.!!!!
You are killing me look at the stats and look at the way they have achieved those stats, for example, nearly half of Reese's TRB is from her own shots, for a tall, she is hopeless at blocking, incapable of making a shot over a few feet from the post, and is always in foul trouble. Then you have Clark who is guarded by the opposition's best and most of the time double and triple-guarded and still can come up with the most PTS and AST by any Rookie, had her teammates caught the ball better and given better screens those stats would be off the chart for a Rookie. The Fever is just starting to gel as a Team which means Clark's Stats will improve also she will have fewer TOs. In this last game against Chicago Sky Clark was by far the best on the floor, and the connection between Clark and Boston is building very nicely, if they continue this trajectory Clark will be unstoppable as Rookie of the Year.
I have an honest question. I'm not being sarcastic. I've heard of Angel Reeses' "double doubles." But yesterday I noticed at least 4 if not more of her rebounds were her and Cardoso throwing the ball up and getting their own rebounds. Are those added in the rebound totals?
Clark started out playing the best defenses in the league, the schedule is much easier going forward and the team is starting to learn how to play with her. going forward she has a much better chance of ROY than angel lol
Mic I think you are trying to be too fair. AR does NOT face the same kind of defensive attention that CC does and CC cooks her in pts. CC cooks her in blocks a stat AR should be better. CC cooks her in assist a category CC should have more. The ONLY category I would give AR the nod is OR and not because AR is a horrible shooter and gets many of her own misses. AR is not the leader of her team nor even the best player on her team.
This is a complete joke and you calling Reese the ROY is pathetic. Dude stop simping. CC is number 1 and it's not even close. She runs earth sized laps around everybody.
All you have to do is ask which rookie do you want on your team and you can only pick one? Only a complete idiot would pick anyone but Clark, these article's or so crap!!
Who votes for rookie of the year? Angel Reese shoots every shot inside 5 ft and absolutes sucks at hitting thise shots putting her at number 1 is a disgrace saying your not mad at it is a bigger disgrace.
The way Fever are playing now, they'll be making a run at playoffs. Their teamwork and comraderee is starting to develop. Moving the ball and finding the open player. Every player contributing. Getting tough to defend against. They're looking like a team now. "Go Fever"
For people who just blindly criticize CC for TOs, do you even know what a PG's usual job is? They usually are the first to touch the ball off of the inbound & getting to the halfcourt. Combined with the physicality of the league, & the idea that the opposing defender's goal is to steal the ball from her. While it's importsnt to keep the TOs low, consider circumstances before hating.
Angel Reese rebound numbers are a farce. She has more offensive rebounds than defensive rebounds and most of those rebounds are from her own misses. She only shoots in restricted area and has a lower FG% than Clark.
🏀ROOKIE OF THE YEAR 🏀Caitlin Clark should easily be Rookie Of The Year. Caitlin's current WNBA status average so far this year : 16.2 ( PTS ) , 6.6 ( AST ),5.4 ( DRB ) , 1.3 ( STL ) , 5.2 ( TOV ). She is a Excellent passer , She has double coverage on her most of the time which actually frees up at least one of her teammates , She is fast and quick just as good at making those two pointers as well as the three pointers. The BONUS IS " CC has a HUGE FAN Base who Love Her.... :)
@@brandonleemossReese averages 2 TO per game which is insane considering that she's a forward who barely handles the ball. If you really want to put turnovers in perspective 😉
@@tk.designs if y'all gone mention the players she had to contain then you gotta mention her. Caitlin didn't contain Reece, or Edwards. Boston did. Y'all should be saying Maybury, Evans, and Allen, cause Caitlin had to defend them. Mabry had 22 , Evans had 12, Allen had 2. They couldn't stop CC.
@@tabathacrockett5591 So, you're saying a second year player should be mentioned in Rookie of the Year conversation? OK. AB is the defending ROY. No one is saying AB isn't good, I am saying she isn't a Rookie so of course, she isn't mentioned in the Rookie of the year conversation.
@@tk.designs I'm saying use the accolades each rookie has earned to make their case. Don't say she cooked Reece, Edwards to downplay them when Clark didn't even contain those players. To overtake Reece she gotta hold her own with the good teams not the worst teams. But we will see after next week, the Fever gotta play the Storm, the Lynx, and the Mercury. I want Clark to show these Vets that she belongs and there is nothing they can do about it.
there is literally no evidence of your bs claim about Reese.. youve given nooo evidence.. cc won first month.. their team is better and cc is breaking soo many rookie records... and they will get more consistent... overrated is reese .. on a shit team .. she averages . 02 blocks. compared to 1 block for cc .. its insane... just the pure unprecedented pressure on cc makes her the roy .. this is too stupid to even talk about....
Hello Mick. I've been watching some of your videos the last few days and I was curious about how you got so interested in basketball? Thanks. Keep up the good work.
clark is about to become the best rookie to start off wnba stat wise, and will break that 20-5-5 stat that is supposedly held at 7..she now has 5 games of such..but rookie of the year, noooo!..she could be rookie of the month this month and next and still be ranked way down, lol//
Who ever wrote this is insane. Look at the stats and overall effect on not only her team but the entire W having to make adjustments. Shit about to get real now that 2-3 of them are starting to play together as a team. 👍👍💪💪
I saw nothing from Angel Reese that was remotely close to the caliber of play that Catlin Clark is. Angel Reese is under the basket with Cardozo. Her height allows her to put in a lot less effort and shooting ability. She is the exact same player she was in College. Sides says today that Clark is getting comfortable with the team. FALSE, THE TEAM IS GETTING USED TO CLARK. Look at the pathetic screens they set or attempted to set for her prior to Sundays game. Look how many times on Sunday she was able to hit an open Smith, Boston and also the open three point shots for Samuelson, Mitchell and Hull. Also Sunday was the first time I've seen Kelsey Mitchell pass the ball back to her, AND TWICE. Those horrible screen in previous games allows the defense to peel off and trap her leading to her having to force passes adding to her turnovers. And admit, her bad games have also been because of Sides taking her out of her rhythm and then she also has to play catch up from the negative points on the bench. And that's when she starts forcing shots.
Someone put up a stat today that the Sky has played about 530 hrs of basketball so far this season. 72 of those hrs have been against Caitlin Clark. In the 530 hrs they have had two flagrant fouls, both of those have been against Caitlin Clark. I'm with you on Angel Reese shouldn't get suspended. It was a hard hack but she played it off well. Look at the video again. Just before her head disappears behind Caitlin Clarks head, she is looking directly at her as Clark is starting to go up with the ball. When she comes back into view, she is looking at the ball. She is plenty aware of where Clarks head is. Just look at it again after knowing the flagrant foul stat.
Wall Street Journal reports today, A 28 $ million deal with Caitlin Clark! That alone, makes her the most paid payer in woman's basketball player ever. And likely for many years!
Aaliyah Edwards just started having good games like a weeka ago lol. Brink is overrated. She's has several really unproductive, bad games. 0-3 point type stuff with 4-6 fouls. her shot blocking just doesn't make up for it. It's Clark, Reese, Jackson, Edwards (these two can swap places), Brink for top 5 rookies. Cordoso at 6, Vanloo at 7, Fiebich at 8, Kate Martin at 9 and Pili 10.
@@brandonleemoss and steals and blocks. And this isn't a comparison you'll want to make for long. Clark is probably going to be the best ever by a very large margin.
Why does no one talk about Cardoso? She's a monster. Way more dominant than Brink. As she gets her fitness it's obvious her and Clark are the two best rookies.
these publications all just use stats that are hand selected to match the result they want to publish to get the most attention, never the eye test and the amount of playmaking they contribute to
50%of your rebounds are from own missed shots, shooting lie 30s fg%. CC. had 2-30 pt games only rookie with 30. 200pt 75 reb 75 asst only player to do that in the amount of time. Avg 17pts 6.+ ast 6+reb or 15-5-5. How is Angel roy?
LeBron had 35/9/15 in game 7 against the Celtics in 2018 carrying his team to the win... However he also had 8 turnovers so he actually had a terrible game
Aaliyah Edwards is the best rookie; she is 21 and playing PF 6-3,' every night she goes against big play, I know you people are going to say you don't lack C.C, there is four PG in college best then C.C, Paige Bueckers, Juju Watkins, Milaysia Fulwiley, Hannah Hidalgo, and three are freshman.
You're clearly not watching the Mystics games. Edwards is the most complete rookie atm. If I had to pick a non Clark rookie to bet my life on for ROTY, I'm going Edwards, it's not close. Reese isn't even the best ROTY on her TEAM. Let alone the league. My list atm is Edwards,Clark,VanLoo,Brink,Cordozo,Reese.
It's not going out or staying late to shoot balls that matters. It's the individual appearance and professional role model additude. They don't have to play role models but who would you rather have your young daughter see on Tik Tok? Also, I would probably go out after a loss, but don't flaunt it on social media knowing people are going to see you acting stupid and flipping off the camera. Be a professional or get ready to handle the criticism. A lot of pro athletes that flaunt their party bar life always end up being involved in something stupid that involves the police.
The more turmoil the media creates the better they like it. Ignore everything but the stats. Records are being broken. The league is desperate for attention Utubers are driving all the BS
With the stats you showed Caitlin Clark show be #1, Reece #2 never earned no# 1 spot, Boston #3 people lie stats don't, bias individual choose how they feel stats are impersonal and true! you real don't have to tell some one your #1 show it prove it with consistent personal stats not always team stats Dominique Wilkins, Reggie Miller, Tracy McGrady never were on champion ship teams but were prolific scores and players! like Caitlin Clark, but then it would also apply to what you're scouting for!
BroI think you have a secret crush on AR!!!! Are you actually watching her games or just looking at her stats? I thought you knew basketball... Cordosa will have better stats than AR once she's fully healthy. There is a reason why she was pick 3 and AR 7.

For people who just blindly criticize CC for TOs, do you even know what a PG's usual job is? They usually are the first to touch the ball off of the inbound & getting to the halfcourt. Combined with the physicality of the league, & the idea that the opposing defender's goal is to steal the ball from her. While it's importsnt to keep the TOs low, consider circumstances before hating.
That list is so cook lol how can Caitlyn not be 1
Either Reese can't make a layup, or she's inflating her rebound stats by missing. Which is it?
She fights for all her pts and rebs 😮😊
Almost all of Angel’s rebounds are from her missed shots 😆
Angel Reese rebound numbers are a farce.
She has more offensive rebounds than defensive rebounds and most of those rebounds are from her own misses.
She only shoots in restricted area and has a lower FG% than Clark.
Come on Mick Caitlin is setting records .
Is this media bias or just click bait?
🏀ROOKIE OF THE YEAR 🏀Caitlin Clark should easily be Rookie Of The Year. Caitlin's current WNBA status average so far this year : 16.2 ( PTS ) , 6.6 ( AST ),5.4 ( DRB ) , 1.3 ( STL ) , 5.2 ( TOV ). She is a Excellent passer , She has double coverage on her most of the time which actually frees up at least one of her teammates , She is fast and quick just as good at making those two pointers as well as the three pointers. The BONUS IS " CC has a HUGE FAN Base who Love Her.... :)

@@brandonleemossReese averages 2 TO per game which is insane considering that she's a forward who barely handles the ball. If you really want to put turnovers in perspective 😉
Reese is a joke. Brink will be good but not exceptional as Caitlin.
Still got the ring son.
@St.Maurice the WNBA gave her a ring?😆😅🤣😂
@@keiththompson5193Got a ring over Caitlin
@@keiththompson5193He knows what I meant. They mad Reese and Cardoso defeated Shezus. Back to back.
Hilarious because to my knowledge she has scored more than any other rookie
Rebounds need be corrected for her own misses.
It would make Reese look even better tho😂🎉yay!
@@brandonleemoss fewer rebounds per game is better?
@@marsharichmond165 it will show that she just get her own rebounds
Are you kidding me REESE JOKER # 1 , you think she will be rookie of the year !! What !!!
CAITLIN IS Performing MUCH BETTER !!
Turnovers kills😮
The rankings are a joke, the product of some nerd with a statistical algorithm. They are completely meaningless.
Mick doesn't think Caitlin will rise with more experience? Mick doesn't think Angel is mentally unstable?
Nnaaww AB has cooked Angel Reece and Aaliyah Edwards!!! Put some respect on my girl name!!!! She holds that paint down
That's cool and all, but this is a conversation about Rookies, and AB as great as been, is NOT a Rookie this year.
@@tk.designs if y'all gone mention the players she had to contain then you gotta mention her. Caitlin didn't contain Reece, or Edwards. Boston did. Y'all should be saying Maybury, Evans, and Allen, cause Caitlin had to defend them. Mabry had 22 , Evans had 12, Allen had 2. They couldn't stop CC.
@@tabathacrockett5591 So, you're saying a second year player should be mentioned in Rookie of the Year conversation? OK. AB is the defending ROY. No one is saying AB isn't good, I am saying she isn't a Rookie so of course, she isn't mentioned in the Rookie of the year conversation.
@@tk.designs I'm saying use the accolades each rookie has earned to make their case. Don't say she cooked Reece, Edwards to downplay them when Clark didn't even contain those players. To overtake Reece she gotta hold her own with the good teams not the worst teams. But we will see after next week, the Fever gotta play the Storm, the Lynx, and the Mercury. I want Clark to show these Vets that she belongs and there is nothing they can do about it.
Continued great commentary, thanks
there is literally no evidence of your bs claim about Reese.. youve given nooo evidence.. cc won first month.. their team is better and cc is breaking soo many rookie records... and they will get more consistent... overrated is reese .. on a shit team .. she averages . 02 blocks. compared to 1 block for cc .. its insane... just the pure unprecedented pressure on cc makes her the roy .. this is too stupid to even talk about....
I'd wait till half the season is over.
Hello Mick. I've been watching some of your videos the last few days and I was curious about how you got so interested in basketball? Thanks. Keep up the good work.
clark is about to become the best rookie to start off wnba stat wise, and will break that 20-5-5 stat that is supposedly held at 7..she now has 5 games of such..but rookie of the year, noooo!..she could be rookie of the month this month and next and still be ranked way down, lol//
Who ever wrote this is insane. Look at the stats and overall effect on not only her team but the entire W having to make adjustments. Shit about to get real now that 2-3 of them are starting to play together as a team. 👍👍💪💪
Multiple ranks have Angel #1😮
She’s the jackie robinson of the wnba
all wnba coaches and the olympic selecting committee will be voting the rookie of the year; caitlin has no chance, lol//
“Never argue with stupid people. They will drag you down to their level and then beat you with experience” -Mark Twain
All Clark has to do is ignore anything and everything the Joker says
and she'll disappear
Clark should have told the Joker that she’s Batman. 😆
Luka also had insane turnovers and was MVP. Turnovers are inevitable when you are guarded the way Caitlin Clark is guarded.
Nope when a team plans there defense around CC22 and through everything but the n kitchen sink at one rookie come on
Can’t count a 31 year old as a rookie lol.
CC scored 30 in the month of June. She'll be rookie of the month again. And ROTY. This conversation is absurd.
I saw nothing from Angel Reese that was remotely close to the caliber of play that Catlin Clark is. Angel Reese is under the basket with Cardozo. Her height allows her to put in a lot less effort and shooting ability. She is the exact same player she was in College. Sides says today that Clark is getting comfortable with the team. FALSE, THE TEAM IS GETTING USED TO CLARK. Look at the pathetic screens they set or attempted to set for her prior to Sundays game. Look how many times on Sunday she was able to hit an open Smith, Boston and also the open three point shots for Samuelson, Mitchell and Hull. Also Sunday was the first time I've seen Kelsey Mitchell pass the ball back to her, AND TWICE. Those horrible screen in previous games allows the defense to peel off and trap her leading to her having to force passes adding to her turnovers. And admit, her bad games have also been because of Sides taking her out of her rhythm and then she also has to play catch up from the negative points on the bench. And that's when she starts forcing shots.
Someone put up a stat today that the Sky has played about 530 hrs of basketball so far this season. 72 of those hrs have been against Caitlin Clark. In the 530 hrs they have had two flagrant fouls, both of those have been against Caitlin Clark. I'm with you on Angel Reese shouldn't get suspended. It was a hard hack but she played it off well. Look at the video again. Just before her head disappears behind Caitlin Clarks head, she is looking directly at her as Clark is starting to go up with the ball. When she comes back into view, she is looking at the ball. She is plenty aware of where Clarks head is. Just look at it again after knowing the flagrant foul stat.
1. Clark (not close)
2. Edwards
3. Reese
No one else has a shot, Cam brink just can’t stay on the floor to get the minutes
Wall Street Journal reports today, A 28 $ million deal with Caitlin Clark! That alone, makes her the most paid payer in woman's basketball player ever. And likely for many years!
That deal is With Nike.
Aaliyah Edwards just started having good games like a weeka ago lol. Brink is overrated. She's has several really unproductive, bad games. 0-3 point type stuff with 4-6 fouls. her shot blocking just doesn't make up for it. It's Clark, Reese, Jackson, Edwards (these two can swap places), Brink for top 5 rookies. Cordoso at 6, Vanloo at 7, Fiebich at 8, Kate Martin at 9 and Pili 10.
ESPN's updated rookie tracker is exactly the ranking I said here lol.
Why aren't they listing assists?
Because he would have to list turnovers too 😂
@@brandonleemoss and steals and blocks. And this isn't a comparison you'll want to make for long. Clark is probably going to be the best ever by a very large margin.
This is what Vegas say is the odds at this moment for ROY: Clark -1100, Reese and Brink +1200. Enough said, if anyone know it's Vegas//
Why does no one talk about Cardoso? She's a monster. Way more dominant than Brink. As she gets her fitness it's obvious her and Clark are the two best rookies.
these publications all just use stats that are hand selected to match the result they want to publish to get the most attention, never the eye test and the amount of playmaking they contribute to
50%of your rebounds are from own missed shots, shooting lie 30s fg%. CC. had 2-30 pt games only rookie with 30. 200pt 75 reb 75 asst only player to do that in the amount of time. Avg 17pts 6.+ ast 6+reb or 15-5-5. How is Angel roy?
Caitlin Clark is overrated! Aside from her last , she mostly been getting smoked in the league
Reese game is very limited. she can score an open shot under the rim and get rebounds but she isn't an overall good defensive player
DBG the goat ❤
ROTY Reese
In social media maybe.
Well, she dropped 30 on the Washington mystics, but she committed eight turnovers in the same game that’s not a really great stat line
LeBron had 35/9/15 in game 7 against the Celtics in 2018 carrying his team to the win... However he also had 8 turnovers so he actually had a terrible game
Aaliyah Edwards is the best rookie; she is 21 and playing PF 6-3,' every night she goes against big play, I know you people are going to say you don't lack C.C, there is four PG in college best then C.C, Paige Bueckers, Juju Watkins, Milaysia Fulwiley, Hannah Hidalgo, and three are freshman.
Most of angles offensive rebounds are off her lazy missed lay ups. Look at her shooting %
I agree with all your points!!!!
Reese leads in offensive rebound because she can't shoot on a consistent basis.
The all star projected list I saw didn’t have Reese on it. How can you be ROTY and not considered an All Star?
Figures don't lie!
But liars sure can figure!
You're clearly not watching the Mystics games. Edwards is the most complete rookie atm. If I had to pick a non Clark rookie to bet my life on for ROTY, I'm going Edwards, it's not close. Reese isn't even the best ROTY on her TEAM. Let alone the league. My list atm is Edwards,Clark,VanLoo,Brink,Cordozo,Reese.
UConn fan?
Aaliyah Edwards over Caitlin Clark is crazy.
Angel Reese at #1 makes sense.
It's not going out or staying late to shoot balls that matters. It's the individual appearance and professional role model additude. They don't have to play role models but who would you rather have your young daughter see on Tik Tok? Also, I would probably go out after a loss, but don't flaunt it on social media knowing people are going to see you acting stupid and flipping off the camera. Be a professional or get ready to handle the criticism. A lot of pro athletes that flaunt their party bar life always end up being involved in something stupid that involves the police.
Rickea Jackson is the one getting hated on.
The more turmoil the media creates the better they like it. Ignore everything but the stats.
Records are being broken. The league is desperate for attention Utubers are driving all the BS
With the stats you showed Caitlin Clark show be #1, Reece #2 never earned no# 1 spot, Boston #3 people lie stats don't, bias individual choose how they feel stats are impersonal and true! you real don't have to tell some one your #1 show it prove it with consistent personal stats not always team stats Dominique Wilkins, Reggie Miller, Tracy McGrady never were on champion ship teams but were prolific scores and players! like Caitlin Clark, but then it would also apply to what you're scouting for!
Angel Reese is definitely number 1.
In WNBA onlyfans... Yeah your right... lol
@@jonathanlabbe4711 Wow, good one. What are we 10?
Exactly 💯
Kamila Cardoso has been injured and missed a lot of games.
From watching you and listening to you I have concluded that you are definitely a reese lover...
BroI think you have a secret crush on AR!!!! Are you actually watching her games or just looking at her stats?
I thought you knew basketball...
Cordosa will have better stats than AR once she's fully healthy. There is a reason why she was pick 3 and AR 7.
OK that ranking is from the Athletic, just like NFL rankings it depends on where the ranking comes from.
Vanloo would be perfect on the fever she would make sure clark gets the ball
