She would not mind if she didn’t beat the scoring record because of doing it with more games. If the other girl keeps it, fine with her. She just wants to play basketball . Swoopes will continue to split the league and support Reese even when the conversation is not about her. Swoopes will always bring it back to a victimization of someone by Clark. Won’t matter.
The rookie point record is a distraction. Caitlin has set so many records. As a rookie, she set the WNBA record for assists, which is more than Swoopes ever did!
CC already has proven, she is the Best, and will be the Best Ever. This is her first year! Nobody cares what these has been say. They are just making themselves look stupid, and Jealous, let alone the racist that's oozing out of their pores.
Next year there will be even more games because of new teams but someone will eventually break Caitlin's record as there are more and more teams... will be interesting if the haters will acknowledge that then...
Caitlin Clark has special rules. Has anybody else set a new record but done it during the longer schedule? She just set the all time record for assists which surpassed the record set by Alyssa Thomas last year in a 40 game season. But did Alyssa Thomas set the record by beating somebody who had done it in fewer games? What if you can go back and find someone who set a record for assists in fewer games? What happens when the WNBA season goes to 50 games? All records should be frozen in time? Somehow, I think nobody cares about these records being broken in a longer season unless they are broken by Caitlin.
Caitlin Clark also took way fewer shots than Augustus did...but ALL of these alleged basketball historians, gatekeepers and talking heads seem to have missed that part. BTW, where was this narrative when Angel Reese broke the rebounds record ??? I wonder what the difference is...I don't give ANY credence to this bullshyt. Do we void every title where the opponent's star player or any key player, was injured or played significantly fewer minutes than normal? Then let's put an asterisk next to EVERY record and championship spanning the past 20-25 years...since athletes have greatly benefitted from breakthroughs and advances in medicine, treatment, exercise equipment and physical therapy...and have enjoyed access to all of these.
Someone, get Swoopes on the phone, she must not have heard: Augusta was not face guarded for 94 feet, was not double- & triple-teamed at halfcourt, did not play her first 11 games in 20 days, & Augusta took more shots that Caitlin has!!
What happens during expansion when games are added, are subsequent records discounted? Does the same apply in playoff games if a player sets a record but was involved in more games?
"You didn't break the record because it took more games" is akin to saying that Babe Ruth is still the home run king. Ruth hit 714 HR in 8,399 At Bats. It took Henry Aaron 12,364 and Barry Bonds 9,947.
Maris' 1961 season was marked by controversy because he broke Babe Ruth's 60-home run record in a year when the American League (AL) season was extended to 162 games. Ruth's record was set in 1927 during a 154-game season. Baseball commissioner Ford C. Frick ruled that Maris didn't break Ruth's record because Maris only hit 59 home runs in the first 154 games of the 1961 season. Maris wasn't officially recognized as the record holder until 1991.
If you want to be technical, then keep previous record standing. But know that in the 42 game WNBA, CC22 still set the record for most points in a season by a rookie. Period!
Miss Clark being taken care of by Miss Boston and Miss Mitchell look at how much their games have changed in one season Boston Ms Mitchell they're doing damn good you know who's leading the charge Miss Clark
She doesn't give a fuck about the record. She just wants to play basketball. Just let her play.They can say whatever about her but she will never say anything bad back. She has class. She will never lower herself to there level.
Nobody cared about the WNBA until this young woman came to play. Has nothing to do with her race, but it has a lot to do with her incredible talents. I couldnt name five players in the WNBA prior to watching Miss Clark play nor did I care nor did most people in America. It’s funny we might be the only country in the world where people will vote And act and say things against their own self interest. These women basketball players should be thanking the day that this woman came to play basketball in America frankly I’d like to see her overseas and let the WNBA go back to being what it was… a little watched league, with very little revenue and pretty much irrelevant in American sports except for those playing it, and the owners who were able to use it as a tax deduction every year
If the number of games is going to be a deal killer, then split the record and have an old record and a modern record. No player can achieve the record under the 5 more games criteria. If we are going to be picky, Clark is playing in a MUCH more sophisticated day where every point is more difficult to score against improved players and coaching.
Record broken. NO CAVEATS. NO ASTERISKS. With that rationale, put an asterisk next to Emmitt Smith’s NFL rushing record, as he played 16 game seasons (with deep playoff runs), versus Jim Brown and OJ who played 12 game seasons. Same issues with all professional sports.
So if you are counting the number of games, that should also diminish the achievements of LeBron compared to MJ right?.........Most important is that She played as Her Couch dictated, .........to focus on assists.......that is why She worked on Her assists more, and the results are clear....... single game assist and league assists record.....like we say here in Nigeria,......let all the haters go hug an electric transformer........🙄
CC has take a bottom of the barrel team (last place last year... and 1 in 8 at the beginning of the year) to the playoff. Whereas the SKY's was in the playoff 18 win last year, this year basically last place with Angel. I know they lost key player, but that is team chemistry. Mabey people can't stand AR
This is more pointless discussion that allows people to create cut and pasted, rehashed videos about topics that have already been chewed to death. All this noise about the rookie points record reminds me of the furor over the Roger Maris home run record in 1961. Maris beat Babe's single season record, but the seasons in the Maris era were slightly longer. So what? Move on.
This is the dumbest thing I ever heard. So we going to go across all sports and say Emmit Smith is really the person with the most rushing yards because he didnt do it in the amount of time as Walter Payton did. Yea, this channel is getting removed.
Caitlin is not good enough... but breaks long standing records and going,and going and going! She took 5 extra games because , she opted to dish assists as told by Fever's coach! Remember, when Caitlin shoots & the coaching team are mad about this?!

These critics are making a mockery of themselves. They are jokes!!
The number of records this rookie are simply amazing.
She would not mind if she didn’t beat the scoring record because of doing it with more games. If the other girl keeps it, fine with her. She just wants to play basketball . Swoopes will continue to split the league and support Reese even when the conversation is not about her. Swoopes will always bring it back to a victimization of someone by Clark. Won’t matter.
She has broken so many records so who cares what they say.
Exactly, Caitlin's skills show up in so many ways. But the critics say her scoring 761 points as a rookie lessens the league. Baloney is baloney.
The rookie point record is a distraction. Caitlin has set so many records. As a rookie, she set the WNBA record for assists, which is more than Swoopes ever did!
So CC has played 20 more games, for 20 or so more points. That’s 10 two pointers at the most. She can make that in ONE GAME!
Swoopes is ridiculous.
Clark does not even need to be promoted to be the face of the wnba coz she's really the one
CC already has proven, she is the Best, and will be the Best Ever. This is her first year! Nobody cares what these has been say. They are just making themselves look stupid, and Jealous, let alone the racist that's oozing out of their pores.

If swoops played today she could not do what Catlin did players today are better than when swoops played
Swoops would not get as many points today they have better players today

so all records must meet that criteria
Someone, get Swoopes on the phone, she must not have heard: Augusta was not face guarded for 94 feet, was not double- & triple-teamed at halfcourt, did not play her first 11 games in 20 days, & Augusta took more shots that Caitlin has!!
C ² took less shots than Augusta
What is impressive is for a shooter/scorer to lead in assist's ! And her rebounding,steals, blocks, all round basketballer !
Miss Boston watches out for Caitlin Clark
his arrogance has blinded him
What happens during expansion when games are added, are subsequent records discounted? Does the same apply in playoff games if a player sets a record but was involved in more games?

The CAITLIN CLARK “HATE & JEALOUSY” is “HUGE”.
The game was longer if I’m not mistaken 0:15 so if that is true then there’s no caveat😂😂😂
Some advice for Diana Turasi: If you go because of old age into retirement, there is some adjustment.
Without Caitlin the WNBA is nothing more than ghetto ball . No one was watching ghetto ball and without Caitlin nobody will watch now . MVP YES
She doesn't give a fuck about the record. She just wants to play basketball. Just let her play.They can say whatever about her but she will never say anything bad back. She has class. She will never lower herself to there level.
Swopes has her right to opinion. However I do too.
I guess geno just regretted not taking Clark to play at uconn

What are people missing in their lives, that they are filled with so much hate. And I don't mean just basketball.
What would Angel Reeves do getting hit like CC has been.
Swoops suc^s Swoops played against players not as good as today
Put an Asterix on the record book. Who cares? It’s still another record! We watch CC for dynamic games she plays.
Record broken. NO CAVEATS. NO ASTERISKS. With that rationale, put an asterisk next to Emmitt Smith’s NFL rushing record, as he played 16 game seasons (with deep playoff runs), versus Jim Brown and OJ who played 12 game seasons. Same issues with all professional sports.
Does anyone give a damn what swoopes has to say.
What’s gonna happen when they expand the league, records are gonna fall even faster.
In a couple of years she will be the biggest name in USA sports and these idiots will be long gone
So if you are counting the number of games, that should also diminish the achievements of LeBron compared to MJ right?.........Most important is that She played as Her Couch dictated, .........to focus on assists.......that is why She worked on Her assists more, and the results are clear....... single game assist and league assists record.....like we say here in Nigeria,......let all the haters go hug an electric transformer........🙄
Do you know the only player on the fever team that sticks up for Caitlin Clark is Alicia
Boston takes
CC has take a bottom of the barrel team (last place last year... and 1 in 8 at the beginning of the year) to the playoff. Whereas the SKY's was in the playoff 18 win last year, this year basically last place with Angel. I know they lost key player, but that is team chemistry. Mabey people can't stand AR

Since when do we compare records by the time they were broke once again swoopes started this shit! Whatever a record is a record
Ok, take that away, now C2 has the. Better record. Most points as a WNBA player. You Haterrs, Racists, and jealous AH STHU
This is the dumbest thing I ever heard. So we going to go across all sports and say Emmit Smith is really the person with the most rushing yards because he didnt do it in the amount of time as Walter Payton did. Yea, this channel is getting removed.

If, she is not good enough as tell... how come the past & present players did not & was not able to do what CC 22 achieved on her rookie year?!
