Here I am a fan of WNBA as of about 12 years and had never heard of the legend Nancy Lieberman until this year after the show Swoopes had started with CC. Now I got to know a bit more of WNBA history thanks to it. Caitlin Clark, the gift that just keeps on giving...
The great Nancy brought up a good point. A'ja is doing her job. Exceptional. Best scorer in the league. 2nd best rebounder. Pretty sure up there in blocks too. She's doing her job. CC is doing her job better than ANY PG in the league. She took players who were NOT good last year as a team and turned the team into a playoff team. A'ja has not boosted her team up, her team is worse than last year with the same players. Not A'ja's fault but still.. Most Valuable.. I don't agree that it just goes to the best scorer, the one with the best motor, leadership...
@@ernestclayboniii656 1st.. my favorite player in the league is Phee. I'm in MN. but Most Valuable to me would be 1. Clark 2. Wilson 3. Collier 4. Stewie 5. Arike (sucks Dal so bad). I think the most valuable includes more than just scoring but also overall effect the player has on everything. How you have Gray ahead of Clark? lol Must be an ATL fan.
Wrong Aja has been with Aces since 2018, she has grown with her team. Aces are trying to 3 peat which is hard. CC is not on Aja situation. Your delusional.
Despite the obvious resistance, Clark is a generational talent who can do almost anything on the court; most notably, attract new viewers and make her teammates better. She is adapting to the pace and physicality of the WNBA insanely fast, making a losing franchise relevant, and already breaking records in less than one season. No one is saying the other players in the league don't matter. Of course they do. It's a unique collection of stars and personalities that Clark herself has praised numerous times, both past and present. However, the reason people can't wait to watch Caitlin is because her style of play is riveting, you feel as if something incredible or historic could happen at any moment. She's a genuinely good person who is refreshingly honest, ignores the hate, and overcomes the pressure to deliver memorable performances and storylines. That's what icons like Jordan and Gretzky did....they transcended the game, cultures and stereotypes....a guard can't dominate the NBA, a weak pretty boy won't survive the ice. And because we don't know how long she'll play or be able to continue performing at an elite level, fans should simply appreciate what she brings to the table: excellence and excitement. She's not only making the WNBA far more lucrative for players, owners, networks and merchandisers, she's raising the level of play and expectations across the league because so many want to beat her, or be like her.
“I give christie sides a lot of credit “. Ok Ive watched every fever game this season, and i can say this confidently. Sides is one of the worst game management coaches in the league. They win in spite of her.
A single player in the WNBA has brought the huge TV views and the huge increase in seat sales, this year. I am describing the “most valuable player” the WNBA has ever seen? Oh, did I just say that Caitlin should be the unanimous MVP this year? Funny that.
4 Aces players are Olympians, are you kidding?? Why Aja is the definite favorite? - best player and MVP player are 2 different things. Her team would win without her, but that's not the case with Caitlin.
That's why CC22 is as good as she is, she grew up playing against the male athletes. Turasi didn't show any respect until CC forced her to eat crow. Reese is only breaking records in garbage time, CC is doing it while winning games.
Aja Wilson is not a playmaker. Im going to say this again for all you media zombies out there. Aja Wilson is NOT A PLAYMAKER. She doesnt get assists.. she doesnt work the ball. Shes a singular talent like Arike. Aja scores, and rebounds. CC scores, rebounds, steals, passes, playmakes, hits threes, pushes the ball up court. and if the fever beat the Aces in the next 2 games they have with each other they could surpass the Aces in the standings. and ladies and gentleman that means the CC is the MVP Its harder for women to get a triple double because it involves another dimension of skillsets. Surely a man does not have the technology inside him to make babies. But we do have the technology to get triple doubles. You need to be able to shoot or drive.. e.g. score... you need to be able to not be greedy and pass even though you are a threat to score.. and then you need to still have enough energy and selflessness after you pass and score to go after rebounds . Each stat affects the others. If Kelsey MItchel started passing like Caitlin Clark she might end up with only 10 or 15 points and not 20,25,even 30. Her scoring would drop precipitously. If she had to rebound also then shed be more tired out and not doing so many backcuts and fast breaks. The threes might stop falling. In order to do all three you need energy and you only get energy by being so good that you dont have to go 100 percent for every one of those stats. Its telling that Aja Wilson is not on the triple double list
I'm a indiana fever CC fan and I'm sorry you are only telling half truths about Aja. Aja scores, rebounds, blocks shots, gets steals. She is the best big defender in the league. She's the best two way player in the league by far. She can score whenever her team needs it, she can switch any pick a roll guard 1-5. She's a rim protector. While I'm a massive fan of CC and she does do the things you said CC is a point guard Aa is a forward they are not asked to do the same things. If Aja wasn't going crazy this year CC would definitely be MVP in my book.
@@90Deyon done be a simp even rebecca lobo is saying it Rebecca Lobo: " We could see the @IndianaFever and @minnesotalynx match up in the @WNBA playoffs. They’re both playing beautiful basketball and have MVP candidates in Napheesa Collier and Caitlin Clark."
Lieberman is wrong about the ratings not being good in The NBA when Jordan came into the league. Sure, the ratings of The Bulls may have sucked...because The Bulls SUCKED. However with Bird and Magic, the ratings for The NBA were healthy. Jordan really didnt take off and get over the hump..until 91. The Celtics, Lakers and Pistons were the only teams to win NBA titles during Jordan's first 7 seasons. However prior to CC coming in The WNBA, the ratings for The WNBA hella sucked during the 1st 27 years of its existence. While the CC games are getting good ratings...the non-CC games' ratings still suck.
Frankly nobody (but a very small core of supporters) cared about womens basketball. Say what you want but the stats dont lie stadiums were empty and TV viewership was pathetic. When Iowa filled a football stadium to watch a womens basketball game the entire world knew Caitlin Clark is special. But the WNBA has got to be the stupidest bunch of haters in existence. Nobody can convince me the officials of the WNBA decided to allow any and all abuse of CC to go unchanged without the WNBA's directive. That last game against the Lynx they went to free throw line 25 times! CC and co were being body slammed left tight and centre with only 13 fouls called. 😂❤ If your Caitlin Clark how long till she says you know what $#@% this $#@% I'm suing the WNBA and if nothing changes I'm out. 😂❤
There were only 32 flagrant fouls =called=. That one viscious shoulder to the head on the moving screen she took, should have been an immediate ejection. It wasn't even called flagrant. There was at least 1 per game in her first 20 games. I think she has drawn the 4th most fouls in WNBA this year. (wilson is leading the wnba but with all the phantom calls that is easy to see why). CC is 5th in the rookie records for foul drawn.
Stupid this physicality was in the wnba before CC. Candace Parker, Marina Mabrey, etc got it worst. stop the special treatment for CC. If she is supposed to be Lebron or Bird, let CC play. Stop trying to soften her experience.
@@chrisk2734 Hey Asshaticus Finch, no one said it wasn't here before CC. Maybe you are a closet troll hater of CC, hiding behind a pic of her. No player has taken the number and severity over a season CC has. No player has been fouled more and not had it called in a season than CC. Sit down.
The difference between Jordan getting the "rules" and CC getting the "rules" is Jordan had Charles Oakley CC doses not. It would not be as pronounced in intensity if she did.
We refuse to call it what it is. This is not the same as Michael Jordan or Tiger Woods. If Caitlin Clark's skin color was different, none of this would happen to her. She would be called a queen and hailed as the greatest rookie of all time.
Kate “money” Martin is warming bench! Aces! What rookie year? (Do over?) deep talent team? Martin has following! Yet still no practice in regular season!
Because CC was bumped/fouled, really? This is dumb. This is basketball, CC can handle being fouled. Its you people. You guys are messing up CC journey with this idea that no one should trust her.
Yeah I think what they would have done if all of these flagrant fouls wouldn't have happened just think how much better Caitlin would be if she wasn't face guarded by two girls on the other team because they're scared of her just think what she would have done if all of these hanging on to her Jersey hanging on to her arm bumping into her as she's going to the whole bumping into her and she's taking a shot if those files were actually called fouls by the referees in the WNBA just think what she could have done already besides what she has done I know basketball I played 4 years of it and I definitely know flagrant fouls and I know fouls that are not being called because the league does not want them called
Nancy Lieberman is such an impressive woman 👏🤜

Dan has been Nancy's friend for over 40 years. You're mistaken.
One humble legend. Sheryl should take notes.
Swoopes is not in this league. She's a horrible person and shouldn't represent anything but hate. Maybe Trump will hire her.
Nancy is the OG Triple OG. I mean she balled at freakin ruckers!!!
Now I'm going to look for footage of her at Ruckers. I didn't know that.

I would say that makes her pretty darn valuable
The "grown women" have been slacking for quite a while; CC just came in and flat out outplayed everybody.
Most Valuable to the league and her team...Caitlin Clark
Nancy is a legend, super baller
she aint no legend
That's why CC22 is as good as she is, she grew up playing against the male athletes. Turasi didn't show any respect until CC forced her to eat crow. Reese is only breaking records in garbage time, CC is doing it while winning games.
They don't like Caitlin because she's showing them they aren't as good as they thought they were.
That’s it!
and she is straight and white. If she was black it wouldn't be an issue. She would be MVP.
I've never seen Dan go speechless until Nancy told him "you couldn't go left". Wow.

Nancy Lieberman is an awesome ambassador to the game. Love her, didn't know her but l'll google her.
Tonight's game against the Linx will be payoff like.
Next week Clark's Fever plays the Aces Wed and Friday. More Play-off type games.

This woman is talking crap. The hits CC is taking threaten career ending injuries. The league should be ashamed.
they talk about "look at me look at me please oh god look at me" Reese's stat padding as if it were legit made this show illegitimate.
