Dude is dead wrong about AB.
Yea , they’re always playing around. Media gonna media lol
Ya, that guy's a hack...seen some of his stuff before
Antonio Brown not in his right mind for sure!
I can see how he would get that impression though, not knowing AB. Her delivery does seem a bit weird there. Like she didn’t really know how she was going to say it in the best way, so she chose a semi comedic approach and it came out a little wonky.
Yeah what he said was a stupid take and is what’s wrong with social media
today. Sounds like someone who wants to make something out of nothing for a ‘hot take’
no way he thought AB was being shady like what😭
Clickbait.
Good job to Elle for backing up AB
Can we talk about the shock of a female on ESPN actually “mostly” speaking kindly about CC and seeming to give her a positive spin? Still don’t think there was enough significance given to how amazing this game and win was overall though. 1. First Rookie triple double EVER in WNBA. 2. They came from behind with a BIG deficit in the 4th quarter (11 pts) to tie a record 3. They did ALL that against the NUMBER ONE TEAM.
I felt this was so momentous I showed the highlights to my wife and 13 year old and made sure to set the scene. Made sure they watched it all. Elle’s lack of enthusiasm still makes this feel like she’s being dragged across the line to this momentous point in WNBA history.
@@jmckey elle has been very complimentary toward caitlin clark since she stepped in the w. was one of the people who defended her early season performances where she didnt do as well because of the adjustment period
the actual issue here is her cohost trying to drum up some kind of drama and fan the flames saying AB was being shady, which led to elle having to divert from talking about CC's accomplishments, to having to defend AB and say 'no actually, this is completely genuine.' an example of how certain narratives are forcing the topic away from the actual basketball being played. if the cohost doesnt try to paint AB in a bad light, i'm sure elle has more to say about caitlin's accomplishment and the fact she did it against the number one team in the league, and for a win.
@@kellycognac12 I hope you are right, because I have tried to look for positive stuff coming out of ESPN from women, particularly women of color about CC, and it seems few and far between. Or at the very least reluctantly given when it should be effusive compared to what literally the whole rest of the internet and crowd reaction is. It’s serious making me question my liberal stances and whether some of these conservatives I’ve been ignoring have been right to some degree all along. It’s not a good look. It makes me feel like I’m slightly losing my grip on reality. Maybe I am. Hehe.
AB is being genuine. CC always downplays her own personal achievements and AB is helping her
Facts I agree 100% with u
OMG leave Aliyah Boston alone
yeah, dude is reaching on her being fake
He sound stupid af
Yea, Aliyah Boston and Caitlin Clark are workout buddies! They just post them at gym together!
@@hardensoul7248 We have Boston's back! She is the real deal, and soon to be one of the best Guard/ Big combo's in the league.
Boston's entire personal reputation makes this almost impossible. She doesn't have a fake phony bone in her body.
Aliyah Boston was genuine when she said a good things about Caitlin. So, Don’t creates intrigues young man!
When I first heard it, I thought the same thing! Honestly! Until I heard the more complete quote, that's how it sounded
This is reckless. If you're not 100% sure Boston being Shady, then shut up.
These dudes, these "legitimate journalists " are unnecessarily messy. Petty is stupid
Boston is SOLID. These fools don't talk for her.
no cause what is wrong with him. AB was just playing around and wanted CC to bask in her accomplishments and he thinks shes being shady?? oh my god we're cooked
It's for the clicks!
That made me so upset 😢 why do these media people try to make issues where there aren’t any! Hopefully no one takes what he said seriously.
He always annoys me!
Aliyah is awesome. They are becoming a dynamic duo!!
Trio. Mitchell.
@@tonyedwards3938 Yes!
@@tonyedwards3938 Have to throw Smith in there too since she is averaging 11.5/8.0 per game that helps a ton.
@@tonyedwards3938100%
Aliyah is genuine, witnessed when teammates showered CC with water Aliyah put a towel on her.
Been where CC is, Few friends. Boston is a friend.
Dude is dumb
Hey! Shut your mouth up talking about shade. Get off AB! AB is a genuine person. Fever play yall game and shut the critics up! Ionescu was just giving her honest opinion of the game. Ionescu Kudos to for doing so.
OMG , if you don't know her it does sound like shade. Get off it . I thought the same thing when I first heard it too. Relax
WHY DON'T YOU TALK ABOUT THIS???? Your own network gave us this highest IMPACT STAT
CLARK is number 1 in the WNBA at 713 - over the best players in the league
ESPN noted, Clark scored or assisted on 46 of the Fever’s 83 points on Saturday.
Clark is still atop the WNBA’s points scored or assisted chart coming out of Sunday @ 713, too. Dallas’ Arike Ogunbowale scored 13 points and assisted four times to account for 21 points, while Las Vegas’ A’ja Wilson scored 28 points and had a pair of assists to account for 33 points.
That brought their respective season totals up to 705 points scored or assisted on for Ogunbowale and 671 points scored or assisted on for Wilson.
To be fair to Wilson and New York Liberty guard Sabrina Ionescu, the Fever have played two more games than the Aces and one more than the Liberty to date.
Nevertheless, Clark being alongside those names is another indication of the magical rookie season she’s enjoying and a strong argument in the WNBA Rookie of the Year chase.
Boston started the clip with a "woo woo woo". If she was throwing shade she wouldn't have started with that (and the shoulder pat).
To cut down on the confusion, Boston needs to carry around a little bell in her hand so that when she ever makes a joke, she can ring it so that talking heads know that it’s a joke…😐
finally elle admits caitlin is amazing. also she is roty. also ab and cc great friends
That's not a shade. Boston is a cool kind person.
No shade. They are buddies
CC Rookie of the Year
I wasn't a fan of Aliyah Boston cause I didn't think she was that good. She's definitely proving me wrong. And she's probably the nicest player in the wnba
Shes good this year because caitlin is making her look good. How many easy layups does she get because of seeing eye passes from Caitlin?
@@rickjohnson2299 Slow down Rick. Boston was ROY and an All-Star last year.
@rickjohnson2299 yea but she actually has like good footwork, making 3's here and there
Look dude, if you don’t have anything to say positive about Aliyah response then keep Aliyah name out of your mouth….PERIOD!!!!!
Guess his momma didn’t teach him right
I thought she was throwing shade at first too ! Relax
AB and CC have been friends for a long time and are super close. Both of them deserve their flowers.
CC22 and the Fever had my love❤️ I don't care what everyone says.
You should support Reese
@@ghsense2626 No.
She hasn't brought up that before last game CC has been blitzed 125 times, Sabrina 65 times, Stewart 57 times....top of scouting list and heavily defended...easy ROY
Finally a great take CC as a guard had a much harder transition and is getting better every single game ROTY
How are guards having a much harder transition. Most WNBA guards are TINY. So how is it harder for CC.
@@natureredux1957 You actually made your point. CC is not ready for the physicality of the W quite yet and she is still a top 3 pg in the league. And she's not defended by other point guards. Most teams put whoever their best wing defender is on her and they blitz her constantly off P and R. Angel is a woman's woman already and is a relentless rebounder and can score as well. Her skills translate almost immediately. It's like comparing a Qb's transition to a running Back. Which one do you think is easier
@@jaust9077 No they don't blitz CC constantly and the bigger WNBA players are NOT very agile. She is mostly if not always defended by another GUARD. And again, most WNBA guards are TINY.
Dude made good point about other teams playing their best against Fever. Everyone wants to shut down CC. And it’s odd the female host found that claim outrageous
Devil Reese only gets her rebounds off her own missed shots. It takes her three rebounds to make two points. Caitlin Clark's assists are about half of what she should have gotten, because the other players can't handle her passes. It isn't even close. CC is ROTY, MVP, and the GOAT.
Please take ur meds.
Sabrina was giving mad respect to that Fever team postgame, what they talking about lol. This game was 1000 more times more important to win than for the Liberty to win. Sabrina was saying the Liberty played 100% and saying the Fever got better over the last few times they played. Yaw twist things 😂
Agree with everything but the ab part, great segment tho:)
Omg what!?? That was so genuine. Don’t say that!’
Do not come for AB! She is as genuine as they come. She has a fun/silly personality and loves to mess around. That’s why her voice/cadence was different. She was being silly and knew the compliments would embarrass her teammate. She was joking around! There’s zero shade. I will ride for AB. Do not come for her
It’ll be nice to see Reese and Clark in the playoffs
A guy in day time, talking gossip on a sports channel, what a brilliant use of your life as a Man!
INSIDE JOKES forsure!!!! Thanks for the refreshing take, people have been talking about how bad CC is lately.
CC had 17 in her 4 years in college...just saying...more triple dubs coming
Elle needs to understand that at the beginning of the season and even still some recent games this is the Superbowl for the opposing teams playing the Fever. Look at how much defensive attention Caitlin got in the beginning of the season being picked up all the way at the other end of the court for inbounding. She has pushed through so much and it's only going to make her better. We're already seeing the results of that now. She's faced hazing in the beginning of the season from the other W players. She's also been the spotlight for the entire W and teams/players want to make a statement by bringing home the win against Caitlin and the Fever. The defense has calmed down some but she still consistently gets doubled and occasionally tripled. For her to have as much success as she is in spite of that and actually BECAUSE of that (because it's only increasing her level of skill as she's learning to navigate through this) shows her talent. Pure and simple.
SUCH a refreshing take. People are sleeping on CC’s assist numbers, too. She is averaging 11.2 the last five games. 😮 I’m agreeing with Gary’s take on the “Super Bowl” comments haha
Who’s this Asian guy it was def genuine
@@bezelguwop5091 Gary Striewski is a sports anchor on ESPN
This take was horrible. Why y’all think this podcast gets low views?
@@jto-eg7qw your opinion is valid and so is mine :)
I love the victory lap image!! You're spot on! They're playing with Caitlin, "just wrap yourself in the flag and take a lap!"
It also seems like CC is scared to be excited, maybe thinks the media will attack her if she actually gets excited for an accomplishment ?
The look on AB's face when Caitlin said I'm just happy we won after the reporter asked about her triple double is priceless. Looked to me like AB was shocked, like she couldn't believe CC wasn't taking the credit she deserved!
It's crazy that there's a chance that by the end of the season, the season rebound leader and the season assist leader will both be rookies
Block leader could have been a rookie too if Brink didn't go down.
THANK YOU!! Finally someone from espn making sense!!
I seriously don't care all that much about double doubles and even triple doubles. What I see is Caitlin making a lot of difficult, timely, pinpoint passing and her assists average going up. She is shooting at a lower percentage than expected though and not scoring as much as expected. But Caitlin can rebound, gets steals, sometimes gets blocks and does a lot in her usage. She and Boston are forming their own version of Stockton/Malone and Mitchell is the break down the defense one-on-one expert who, when getting passes from Clark late in the game, is knocking them down. So she gets her own shots or gets assisted shots. Lexi Hull provides solid defense and some intangibles and Temi is an agile big body that is something of an enforcer, something the team definitely needs.
Clark overall has to extend her offense to the midrange but she has a lot of tools in her toolbox. If she gets high rebounds and high assists then she'll get the so-called "triple double" because 10 points is nothing for her. But mostly, Clark is a very high IQ player, something Skip Bayless doesn't seem to understand, and truly a borderline elite passer. Yes, she has TOs. High usage players tend to and she's just learning the league. So, they're not the big deal people make them out to be.
So many people say that Clark needs to get a midrange game. She has a midrange game, but probably does not use it enough.
To me, AB seems like a truly genuine person, friend to CC, and a great player in her own right. Their improving play together contributes to a growing team chemistry making everyone better.
The league defends, traps, blitzes CC as if she is a superstar. Nobody even comes close to the kind of pressure CC gets. Despite all that, CC achieved the triple double that no rookie has ever done. CC is arguably the best point guard in WNBA right now.
Emphasis on NOBODY even comes close to the kind of pressure CC gets. And that’s not an exaggeration
Delusional
@@Jricks1992 Yes you are and always have been.
Cc not even better then Chennedy. Cc not even the best player on her team
@@jto-eg7qw Sure thing. U huh
Dude is right! Everybody who plays them plays like it's their superbowl!!
Clark had 17 triple-doubles in her college career at Iowa -- and the Hawkeyes won all those games. This legacy because of her amazing talent looks will continue in the WNBA.
Caitlin Clark ( GUARD ) season stats average so far 16.1 (PTS ), 7.4 ( AST rank 2nd ) , 88.9 (FT % rank 6th ) , 6.0 ( REB rank 18th ), 1.4 ( STL ) , 5.5 ( TO ) even with the turnovers CC is leading the ENTIRE WNBA in points generated at 713 very impressive just by itself. Angel Reese (FORWARD ) 14.1 (PTS ), 1.9 ( AST rank 54th ) , 11.9 ( REB rank 1st ) , 1.5 ( STL ) , 1.8 ( TO ). ( CC ast 7.4 rank 2nd to Reese 1.9 ast rank 54th / Reese 11.9 reb rank 1st to CC 6.0 rank 18th ) Caitlin Clark shows lots of diversity and has great overall court awareness not to mention she is outstanding in her passing CC is a better team leader spreads the ball around all her many assist prove that point and at the same time even though she leads in turnovers she also leads the ENTIRE LEAGUE in Most points generated. ROOKIE OF THE YEAR ***** Caitlin Clark. *****
And she's still in second place for rookie of the year.
@@l9ikjam in the end AR is not going even come in second
5 turnovers means only 2 of her 7 assist mean anything in a game
@@chuckd2435how are they a rap team with 3 All Stars, if u think they are crap what do u think the Sky are with only 1 All Star?
@@truthonly-That’s not how that works, not all turnovers lead to opponents points. Assists do lead directly to points.
As a fellow Iowan I know that Caitilin is truely humble it isn't an act we call it Iowa Nice.
Come on now. If anyone's throwing Shade it's you my man. Ionescu said that was The Fever's Super Bowl huh? Well they came into your own Arena with The Liberty boasting the best record in the league and won The Super Bowl.
"I love petty." No kidding lady as you are the definition of petty.
AB sounded genuine in her praise of CC. Both are cut from the same cloth of classy humbleness.
Dude, there was no shade. Guys you think different man.
AB is having fun with CC because CC is so humble. I watched them training in the gym and they're having fun!
The chemistry between Boston and Clark is the best in the league and the team.
I love listening to this duo!
She has the record for turnovers in the WNBA and still has 15 games to go
Watch the Indiana Fever. Ignore all the talking heads. They just describe the scenery.
CC has always been humble and has never let her ego become prevalent when being interviewed. Basketball is a team sport, and she has always given credit to her teammates. I think her personality makes it hard for her to accept compliments, so she keeps it out of the conversation. Pride is a sin to many Christians.
Elle Duncan wouldn’t have a job at ESPN if she didn’t love pettiness.
AB and Caitlin have known one another for years and are friends. Caitlin and her team are going to be a force in the future and that is what Caitlin is working towards. She is clearly very hard on herself.
The suggestion that AB was throwing shade at CC with the "humble" statement is an example of why people dislike media people. You take a BS notion in your head and try to create a controversy. At least Elle had sense enough to shut him up.
AB is the most genuine player.
Fever won 13 games last yr no?
Caitlin Clark deserves the rookie of the year award because she was left out of the Olympics. Meanwhile, she also didn't get player of the year freshman year losing it to Paige Bueckers.
AB literally cheered at the beginning of the clip. Shady??????....what? Back off AB.
Gary is reaching for the drama! 😖 I hate that 😒 “touch of shade” it sounded nothing like shade. It sounded like she’s used to her deflecting because the media is constantly riding for CC [with good reason]!
ESPN be fair what you analyzed. The world is watching and hears what you say esp. about Clark. Some of the commentators of ESPN were ONESIDED.
For all the people saying Elle Duncan a caitlin Clark hater just pick Caitlin Clark to win the rookie of the year awards Caitlin Clark fans 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Angel Reese fans don’t go ballistic because someone doesn’t choose Angel for the ROTY award. The Kaitln Klark Klan wants to hurt people that doesn’t choose CC as ROTY. They need to chill out, this isn’t like talking religion or politics, the trailer park Trumper’s need to leave Caitlyn along, people don’t hate her, but they despise the hard right freaks who follow her.
Lmao I agree with u bro. Boston was DEFFFFFF throwin shade. Elle knows it too 100%.
She is humble and that's what makes her a great player/person off the court. She definitely earned the name White Mamba Kobe would've approved of it hands down
We LOVE you Caitlin! She is my favorite. And only getting better.
Caitlin did not score a triple-double by just making it, but she busted the record by exceeding the double digits in every catagory.
I guess not all ESPN talking heads are against Caitlin Clark. But in all fairness, all the people favoring Angel Reese all preface their current pick with “if I had to pick now…” which gives them a cop out if Caitlin increases her stats and bring the Fever to the playoffs.
Caitlin Clark, as of July 8, leads the entire WNBA for being responsible for the most made baskets made, whether by scoring herself or by assists. There is your WNBA Rookie of the Year.
He is 100% right about ROTY.
“I’m not trying to make any assumption,” he says as he makes assumptions.
Props to Elle Duncan she had a great take very smart lady.
First time seeing you and it was fantastic analysis
Caitlin Clark 💐🫶🙌
Love AB... such a class act and such a sweet person.
Ridiculous 1:49 Boston was giving her props
Leave AB alone
YessirCC bring out the bestest of everyone. CC is a true talent!
Not shade, just kindness
"You'll never walk alone" Caitlin Clark
The guy here is clueless. AB is classy and you can tell how much she enjoys playing alongside CC. More ridiculous speculation.
If Aliyah or Kelsey ever want to get full credit, they'll leave the Fever via free agency .
First of all Boston is not that type of teammate everyone isn’t coming for CC she literally seem genuine for her teammate. But this guy seem so Bias towards Catilyn that even the talk about Resse seem uncomfortable to him. The lady was very fair to everybody
Angel Reece getting a double double every game is irrelevant if they aren't winning.
CC said AB is a light and most positive player in their lockerroom sit that one out dude
why don't people mention that clark is doing all this while being the most guarded player in the league. that's what impress me. all opposing teams defensive schemes is to stop her.
How does that not feel genuine 😂😂😂
We aren't talking about the scoring participation of each player, we aren't talking about the blitzes each player is facing, we aren't talking about anything that can become a talking point in favor of Caitlin Clark ever. We have to listen to these talking heads trashing the accomplishments of one player who is already getting targeted on the court and has nothing negative to say about any other player or team in the league. Yet, this constructed narrative by ESPN and other pundits about how she is the biggest trash talker in the league is allowed to persist. We don't ever mention any of the toxicity that is put into the media by all of the players, journalists, and coaches is problematic. Rent free, even in this petty no name dude who tries to throw shade on AB. Good looking out Elle but call that out when it targets CC as well.
It’s what she’s does. CC had 17 triple doubles while being the all time leading scorer in college. Clark is the only 40 point triple double in NCAA Tournament history.
Let’s get facts straight at least: Fever won 5 games in 2022 and 13 games in 2023..
LEAVE AB ALONE OR FEEL THE WRATH OF OUR FANBASE
AB is the sweetest! dude is tweaking!
I think AB was affectionately teasing here. I also don't think there was much if any shade by Sabrina either. They're a #1 team, beat the Fever by 30+ points in two games and it was early in the season. She's right. The Fever were hungry and played that way.
Caitlin is my Favorite WNBA player
No its not shade .....just trying to stir stuff up. AB and CC the best of friends.
A team does not need to be a top two defensive team in order to win a championship. If their offense is top two, then it could be enough if their defense is too,five or six.
And I’m sorry is ROY about whose positional transition is harder in the wnba or is it about the rookie who is doing he best despite that every journalist is not a basketball expert
