It's crazy that just 4 years ago was the first game ESPN aired of WNCAA. Just 4 years ago. Fast forward to today and every network is scrambling to air these games. I mean, to go from literally zero veiwers for an Elite game 4 years ago to 12.3Million (higher than the any men's games) viewers for this years Elite 8 game (15+M for the Final 4), shows just how impactful Caitlin has been to the sport. 100 years from now, her legacy will be that she literally, siinglehandedly, propelled the women's game (ncaa and wnba) to the juggarnaut that it is becoming.
Paige vs Caitlin WILL be one of the greatest rivalries in sports. The next stage of the Caitlin Clark Effect. I just hope Paige avoids major injuries in the future.
Hair of a difference and each could be better than the other on any given night. Paige Buckets has had some injuries to get over… still see her with slightly more upside. Slightly. A hair.
@@citythink this is comedy, Paige is a good player,just not on Caitlin Clark's level but we don't have to debate it now wait until Paige comes to the WNBA then you'll have other excuses
@@Reginald-p2p Actually, no. CC is a more prolific scorer, but at notably lower efficiency than Paige: 2023-24 stats: FG% -- CC 45.5%, PB 53.4%; 3-pt % -- CC 37.8%, PB 41.8%. Paige also had more steals (86-68) and blocks (53-20). Paige is a little more versatile, being able to play positions 1-4. Yes, Iowa and CC scored a lot of points in her senior year, but they had to in order to overcome their relatively poor D. Last year, UConn gave up 57.2 ppg in 39 games (29th in the NCAA), while Iowa gave up 71.9 ppg in 39 games (319th in the NCAA). And UConn managed that despite playing six Top 25 teams in the regular season (including South Carolina) in extra-league play. Very, very rarely do run-and-gun teams win championships... because defense wins championships. The guy at Awful Coaching puts out YT videos that critique basketball defenses, and this was his go at the Indiana Fever (th-cam.com/video/VdR-frz_f64/w-d-xo.html). The interesting thing about this is that I've seen nothing but these attacks about defenses in the pros, until he put up five videos about how good CC is (e.g., th-cam.com/video/FcXzMDLbXog/w-d-xo.html).
This game was Iowa with one 5 star recruit against UConn with Eight 5 star recruits and Caitlin still could have got the win. It's would be embarrassing if UConn doesn't win the title. It's basically a Future WNBA team every year. Caitlin eventually took her team to the championship game twice and I would put money on it that the same team with Breanna Stewart in Caitlin's place would have never gotten there. Caitlin turned those other girls into great players because she makes everyone better.
From what I gather most of these ladies either played on some basketball league team together or against. So these ladies pretty much know each other well.
It’s Iowa against MN and as a MN native… it breaks me… but Iowa won… Paige had some bad breaks… Geno could never have let CC be the phenom she is. She ended up right where she should have been. And Bueckers… well she didn’t end up the phenom she should have been. But with the injuries we can only guess why.
She'll save Indiana at least, rest of the league is still failing and losing money -They're subsidized by the NBA. Caitlin 1st time around will bring the crowds, after that, I doubt it, and that's no fault of hers.
2024 - "Neither played their normal game" ??? Clark played better than normal, she dished -off most of the winning points to her team. Assists are her strong point. How many assists did Bueckers contribute to a "win" ?
Geno being Geno. lol Clark scored 21, Bueckers w/ 18 and Aliyah w/ 18. But what ended the game was Kate’s 2 turnovers (ball slipped out of her hands), then Anna Makurat nailed double 3-pointers in the last 2 mins, I think.
@@Dribble-Films It is always interesting to see someone respond with a point that has nothing to do with the comment. I guess you weren't paying attention ?
No. Some players do well at UConn and their exposure there gets them chances at the WNBA they wouldn't get at other schools, with the best single example of that being Lou Lopez Senechal. Others don't do well there, at least partly because Geno is a hard coach. Why would a high-school player recruited by UConn not seriously consider going there? She would get a lot more exposure there than she would at most schools, because UConn gets lots of televised games against highly-ranked opponents and she'd be nearly guaranteed of playing in the NCAA tournament. And better success than what? Than Maya Moore? Than Diana Taurasi? Than Breanna Stewart? Than Sue Bird?
I've been following both Caitlin & Paige since highschool. They are both amazing team players with great personalities & ethics. Paige had issues with injuries but prior was every bit as good as Clarke and at times better. For the task of trailblazing the WNBA its probably better that Caitlin got there first. There are other players beside these that are outstanding as well. If the WNBA can hold out the emerging crop of players in the next few years should spark interest to get people to watch & go to the games. They are fun to watch and play hard.
Been rooting WNBA since it was established. Seen Swoopes cooper leslie lobo jackson bird swin candace and othe superstars but i have never seen as smooth and fluid as Maya
Wow !!!!! Some more Anti Caitlin Clark, who would have thunk? Me, and just about everyone else. Lol. Funny thing is, they forgot to show Clark out playing everyone else. Lol They must have missed that part of the game.😂😂😂
CAITLIN is like an ANGEL. They deliberately envy her pure @ clean plays but she exudes excellent plays. She plays sportsmanship basketball unlike the others. It's nice to see a players with very good habits, good graces, it's not getting in her head that she is the best so far.....
Aureama, you will never ever have another player (past and present)that will come from UConn that will be greater than Caitlyn Clark. CC will always be the ONE great player that GOT AWAY and became GREAT without YOU.
That would be awesome, but the league needs these teams to compete, not to completely dominate the entire league year after year. Better for the fan to see Catlin vs. Paige
Wrong! Not one team when i was being recruited out of high school (which at the time players couldn't talk directly to recruiters unless a parent was there) to college (this is baseball but it all applies being division 1) did i need to "hunt" or " ask ". They are in the stands, they are watching as well as the pro scouts. I was in summer league, playing against colleges and played against UCLA. Coach Adams was there at the time and he knew about me. He stopped the pre workout with his team, cleared the field and asked me to go to shortstop to take ground balls. Worked me out. Then the game started. Their scout came to my dad and went over information and asked if i had already committed. You received questions on sat scores or to fill out forms to submit etc. Nobody i knew had to hunt/ask to go to school if you were a top player teams were looking at. If a school isn't coming after you, then you are not usually on their radar. I would rather play and start for the 3rd ranked team, than go to the top ranked teams school after i asked to go there and probably/maybe not start, maybe not get a full scholarship, to jus sit and rot on the bench with not much playing time. The top schools that wanted me , all of them were straight up, where i fit in , if and who i would be competing with or no competition, and other information. You not on their radar, you haven't been recruited by them, WHY would you go there and give them all the leverage and control? Not worth it. Sorry for the book, but that arrogant UConn coach is wrong. That is what happens when success goes to your head. ( unless the ncaa has changed and now a student in high school is able to talk to scouts and recruiters)
If you release this documentary in one video. I'll watch the whole thing, like, comment and subscribe. It's good but cutting it into different parts is actually doing more harm than good.
mvp si CC ... underdog team nya IOWA... nadala nya sa finals.. not like the other school, recruiter ng mga magagaling. Level 5 iowa vs max level 100 Uconn, SC, LSU
They have known and play with and against each other for well over a decade. They are friends, and have kept in touch. Anything else is BS. If Paige were to end up with the fever, you'd see a lot of championships there. Don't over play this drama. Do something descent for a living!
Pete Maravich LSU 1967-1970 averaged 44 points per game, Clark 28. He averaged 1,222 points per year, Clark 988 per year. Total college games played Maravich 83, Clark 139. Pete Maravich could only play 3 college years. Freshmen could not play. AND no 3-point line.
Pete took 38 shots/game to Clark's 20. Give her 18 extra shots each game at her career .462 fg % = 8.16 made shots/game or an extra 16.32 points per game X her 139 game career = an extra 2,268 points for a total of 6,219 points in her career. Pete had 3,667 in his career. He averaged roughly 1,200/season so if he had played a fourth season he would have ended his career with about 5,000 points. He didn't have the three point line but he did have his dad as his coach. Caitlin led the NCAA in scoring and assists twice, no other women's player has done that even once. However, contrasting men versus women's records isn't a fair or reasonable way to compare the players or their games. Just give much respect to both and enjoy the show.
No matter how many shots Pete took in 3 years it can never be equal to only playing 3 instead of 4 years and not having 3 point shot. Not even close and his father didn't put the ball in the hoop coach or not. Both are great shooters in their era.All Pete had to do his freshman year is average 15 points a game and no one would come close to breaking his scoring record. Give them both their due.
For the record, CC shot 7/21 from the field and 4/12 from 3, terrible. moreover, she banked in a 3 from the CORNER, a totally lucky shot. She should have shot 6/22 and 3/12, absolutely horrendous. She also had only 5 assists and 3 rebounds.....and 5 TOs! Paige shot 7/18, but 2 were half court heaves ending periods. So, basically she 44% from the field and 50% from 3, and had 9 boards, 8 assists and only 2 TOs. More importantly, Iowa was a big underdog but they hit a 3 to cut the lead to single digits half way through the 4th. Now all the pressure was on UConn, so Paige nailed a 3. Iowa came right back down and hit another 3 to cut it to single digits again, and Paige answered again with another 3 to put Uconn back up by double digits and that was it. CC didn't score in the entire forth qtr until a minute left ( in your "highlights ") on a drive that Bueckers did not contest, not wanting to foul. That's it, 2 pts in the 4th on an uncontested layup after the game was decided.....in a contest that as within 8 points in the 4th, twice, when the stars needed to step up to advance to the elite 8. Paige did, twice, to break their backs. CC shrank to nothing.
Where was Bueckers this year? Didn't even have the ball in her hand at the end of the game. She got shut down by Marshall. Bueckers is no Clark NOBODY is turning on the tv to watch Bueckers 🤡
Paige has a lot of talent but I don’t think she’s going to adjust to the pros as fast as CC did. I also think Ju Ju Watkins has more game than Paige. That could be the difference in coaches. It’s only my opinion but one thing is for sure and that is the crop of talented young women coming up is going to make the W really fun to watch.
Geno missed on Clark because he thought he was better than he really was. Coaches like Geno start to get the big head when it’s the talent that wins the games. Is he a good coach, yes he is a good coach. I think that he is better at finding top talent. Paige has stayed hurt for most of her college career. She has not had two full years playing at ucon.
Geno auriamma is just passed CC never play with them that's why he say some negative comment but obviously CC killing it in the WNBA ...geno try to coach the Chicago sky let's see if you can make them a champ..
Kind of silly, actually. Good players find ways to make other players better. I know that is the case with both of these ladies. This is why the head to head thing is often silly. They will be going after it for the next two decades and adding huge triple-figure revenue gains to the WMBA, often with little more than the dribble and pass.
Paige is going to get creamed in the WNBA. Clark is carrying a fair bit more muscle than Paige is and CC is getting knocked around a lot. WNBA is extremely physical. Paige needs to seriously beef up or she will get turned to mulch every game.
Yeah, and I think CC has been hitting the gym more as a pro. Paige also already had an ACL tear. Players get “careful” with physicality because of the fear that it might happen again. Most if not all, tend to be less aggressive in their plays after a major injury.
Caitlin Clark has already shown who she is,what is Paige gonna do? She's definitely not on Caitlin's level just because some haters of Caitlin Clark says she is...

I mean, to go from literally zero veiwers for an Elite game 4 years ago to 12.3Million (higher than the any men's games) viewers for this years Elite 8 game (15+M for the Final 4), shows just how impactful Caitlin has been to the sport. 100 years from now, her legacy will be that she literally, siinglehandedly, propelled the women's game (ncaa and wnba) to the juggarnaut that it is becoming.
Exactly! It still blows my mind how women’s basketball have come this far. It’s fun to watch!
UConn is/was the better team - but, I'm sorry, there's no debate - Caitlin Clark is/was the best player
umm no, Uconn was not the better team, stop assuming things kid
@@jameswilliams-zr8co idiots abound on TH-cam - and it's awesome when they self-identify
@@jameswilliams-zr8co They won the game.Therefore,UCONN,is the better team.
@@snave59 wrong clueless kid, uconn is a joke and not a better team, period
@@jameswilliams-zr8co WTF? Sooo, that year, Iowa was the better team but was ranked lower???? How does that work???
Paige I hope you like Washington DC because the mystics are going take you number one in the draft next year!!!!!
lol yeah! aliyah edwards is there so paige would like it.
That depends if the Washington DC gets that No.1 pick.....2nd Worst team might get that pick. That is how they got CC, I think?
Nope, she's going to the sparks .
Paige and Caitlin played against each other in high school. It didn't start in college. They are friends
I'm not a BB fan but CC is the ONLY one I've heard of, and she's the one I've watched
then you have missed a lot of good BB you can go away now.
Paige vs Caitlin WILL be one of the greatest rivalries in sports. The next stage of the Caitlin Clark Effect. I just hope Paige avoids major injuries in the future.
Remind you of Bird and Magic.
Hair of a difference and each could be better than the other on any given night. Paige Buckets has had some injuries to get over… still see her with slightly more upside. Slightly. A hair.
@@citythink this is comedy, Paige is a good player,just not on Caitlin Clark's level but we don't have to debate it now wait until Paige comes to the WNBA then you'll have other excuses
@@Reginald-p2p Actually, no. CC is a more prolific scorer, but at notably lower efficiency than Paige: 2023-24 stats: FG% -- CC 45.5%, PB 53.4%; 3-pt % -- CC 37.8%, PB 41.8%. Paige also had more steals (86-68) and blocks (53-20). Paige is a little more versatile, being able to play positions 1-4.
Yes, Iowa and CC scored a lot of points in her senior year, but they had to in order to overcome their relatively poor D. Last year, UConn gave up 57.2 ppg in 39 games (29th in the NCAA), while Iowa gave up 71.9 ppg in 39 games (319th in the NCAA). And UConn managed that despite playing six Top 25 teams in the regular season (including South Carolina) in extra-league play. Very, very rarely do run-and-gun teams win championships... because defense wins championships.
The guy at Awful Coaching puts out YT videos that critique basketball defenses, and this was his go at the Indiana Fever (th-cam.com/video/VdR-frz_f64/w-d-xo.html). The interesting thing about this is that I've seen nothing but these attacks about defenses in the pros, until he put up five videos about how good CC is (e.g., th-cam.com/video/FcXzMDLbXog/w-d-xo.html).
@@Reginald-p2p Caitlin can light it up a bit more than Paige, but Paige can play D. Full stop.
@@tonyleukering8832 I'll give you that
Beautiful telling of this story.
Caitlin outperformed Paige in the 2020-21 Season, UConn had 5 players plus Paige on that team that are in WNBA right now, Caitlin had Kate Martin.
The defense coulnt even stop Caitlyn from scoring. In Caitlyns first twho WNBA games they still couldn't stop Caitlyn from scoring.
Paige is another of many great basketball players but just like the others does not have the once in a lifetime "effect' Caitlin has. CC22 !!!
This game was Iowa with one 5 star recruit against UConn with Eight 5 star recruits and Caitlin still could have got the win. It's would be embarrassing if UConn doesn't win the title. It's basically a Future WNBA team every year. Caitlin eventually took her team to the championship game twice and I would put money on it that the same team with Breanna Stewart in Caitlin's place would have never gotten there. Caitlin turned those other girls into great players because she makes everyone better.
Actually, they met in High School, many times, in Midwest Club Basketball tournaments
From what I gather most of these ladies either played on some basketball league team together or against. So these ladies pretty much know each other well.
I’m a fan of both but who do you think was better in high school?
@@Dribble-Films Paige
@@AngelThomas-bg7ix I can’t seem to find full high school games on youtube. I would’ve wanted to make some videos of those.
@@Dribble-Films I have seen quite a few
Caitlin is a machine
It’s Iowa against MN and as a MN native… it breaks me… but Iowa won…
Paige had some bad breaks…
Geno could never have let CC be the phenom she is. She ended up right where she should have been. And Bueckers… well she didn’t end up the phenom she should have been. But with the injuries we can only guess why.
Paige can’t save the WNBA but Caitlyn will
Everyone talking about Resse and Clark. I am more interested in Paige vs Clark.
...I don't think the WNBA is salvageable. Now that the college play-offs are over I'm done watching.
She'll save Indiana at least, rest of the league is still failing and losing money -They're subsidized by the NBA. Caitlin 1st time around will bring the crowds, after that, I doubt it, and that's no fault of hers.
Dumbest comment ever.
Personally I think Bueckers is a better player.
Remember when Richard Sherman wasn’t drafted by his college coach! He never let him forget it every time the Seahawks played the 49ers!
Cc did great at Iowa. Great class great talent
2024 -
"Neither played their normal game" ??? Clark played better than normal, she dished -off most of the winning points to her team. Assists are her strong point. How many assists did Bueckers contribute to a "win" ?
Geno being Geno. lol Clark scored 21, Bueckers w/ 18 and Aliyah w/ 18. But what ended the game was Kate’s 2 turnovers (ball slipped out of her hands), then Anna Makurat nailed double 3-pointers in the last 2 mins, I think.
@@Dribble-Films It is always interesting to see someone respond with a point that has nothing to do with the comment. I guess you weren't paying attention ?
@@78tag Bueckers had 8 assists.
@@Dribble-Films Not bad.
All these girls need to stop going to UCONN. They would have better success in the long term. They also can show how talented they really are.
No. Some players do well at UConn and their exposure there gets them chances at the WNBA they wouldn't get at other schools, with the best single example of that being Lou Lopez Senechal. Others don't do well there, at least partly because Geno is a hard coach. Why would a high-school player recruited by UConn not seriously consider going there? She would get a lot more exposure there than she would at most schools, because UConn gets lots of televised games against highly-ranked opponents and she'd be nearly guaranteed of playing in the NCAA tournament.
And better success than what? Than Maya Moore? Than Diana Taurasi? Than Breanna Stewart? Than Sue Bird?
👋😎Paul Javier, Pt 3 WOW!👍Thanks again for these documentary's.🏀✌🏼🏀
At the end of the day, who has the highest collegiate score ever, Caitlan...the rest will have to try.
Dang! Can’t get enough of these videos! Keep churning them out! Good narrating also
Oh, thank you brother! The next episode is gonna be killer! lol
@@Dribble-Filmsi like your Filipino accent. It makes it really good. Humor also.
I've been following both Caitlin & Paige since highschool. They are both amazing team players with great personalities & ethics. Paige had issues with injuries but prior was every bit as good as Clarke and at times better.
For the task of trailblazing the WNBA its probably better that Caitlin got there first.
There are other players beside these that are outstanding as well. If the WNBA can hold out the emerging crop of players in the next few years should spark interest to get people to watch & go to the games.
They are fun to watch and play hard.
page is going #1 next year
paige bueckers proved she is the most overrated player in WNCAA
That would work out for Indiana if they don't win this year.
What a wonderful video!❤️❤️ A tremendous tribute to women's bb and the future .
Geno missed that boat, the people of Iowa thank you.
When you said “brutal” that when I knew you are my kababayan! 😊
Been rooting WNBA since it was established. Seen Swoopes cooper leslie lobo jackson bird swin candace and othe superstars but i have never seen as smooth and fluid as Maya
Just learned that CC played against AB in college.. wow.. now they’re teammates❤
I guess CC not getting everything she wants made her grounded..
Wow !!!!! Some more Anti Caitlin Clark, who would have thunk? Me, and just about everyone else. Lol. Funny thing is, they forgot to show Clark out playing everyone else. Lol They must have missed that part of the game.😂😂😂
CAITLIN is like an ANGEL. They deliberately envy her pure @ clean plays but she exudes excellent plays. She plays sportsmanship basketball unlike the others. It's nice to see a players with very good habits, good graces, it's not getting in her head that she is the best so far.....
Aureama, you will never ever have another player (past and present)that will come from UConn that will be greater than Caitlyn Clark. CC will always be the ONE great player that GOT AWAY and became GREAT without YOU.
Paige vs Caitlyn gtreat game. Too bad we didn't get to see Angel vs Paige as Angel decided to foul out of that game.
Calling it now Paige will be drafted by Indiana Fever next year.
That would be awesome, but the league needs these teams to compete, not to completely dominate the entire league year after year. Better for the fan to see Catlin vs. Paige
fever won't get 1st pick
I love your commentary lol.. ;-))) Are you adding the Sound Design? It's so subtle but so effect..
Wrong! Not one team when i was being recruited out of high school (which at the time players couldn't talk directly to recruiters unless a parent was there) to college (this is baseball but it all applies being division 1) did i need to "hunt" or " ask ". They are in the stands, they are watching as well as the pro scouts. I was in summer league, playing against colleges and played against UCLA. Coach Adams was there at the time and he knew about me. He stopped the pre workout with his team, cleared the field and asked me to go to shortstop to take ground balls. Worked me out. Then the game started. Their scout came to my dad and went over information and asked if i had already committed.
You received questions on sat scores or to fill out forms to submit etc. Nobody i knew had to hunt/ask to go to school if you were a top player teams were looking at. If a school isn't coming after you, then you are not usually on their radar. I would rather play and start for the 3rd ranked team, than go to the top ranked teams school after i asked to go there and probably/maybe not start, maybe not get a full scholarship, to jus sit and rot on the bench with not much playing time. The top schools that wanted me , all of them were straight up, where i fit in , if and who i would be competing with or no competition, and other information. You not on their radar, you haven't been recruited by them, WHY would you go there and give them all the leverage and control? Not worth it.
Sorry for the book, but that arrogant UConn coach is wrong. That is what happens when success goes to your head. ( unless the ncaa has changed and now a student in high school is able to talk to scouts and recruiters)
Paige came 1st on my TH-cam but she got hurt. C.C. got 🐐 don't twist Paige though because Paige is still Paige 😍😍😍
Paige will be a fine addition to the Caitlin Clark effect.
If Paige was as good as she thinks she is she wouldn’t hide out in college another year She was afraid to go head up against Clark in the WNBA
If you release this documentary in one video. I'll watch the whole thing, like, comment and subscribe. It's good but cutting it into different parts is actually doing more harm than good.
Brother I love these styles of videos AWESOME!
Thanks, Bro! More coming! And that’s a nice bass you have right there. lol
CC and Paige are so beautiful!!!!!!!!!!😍
They better be checking Caitlin for a closed head injury after every “assault”. Assault and battery is a crime.
mvp si CC ... underdog team nya IOWA... nadala nya sa finals.. not like the other school, recruiter ng mga magagaling.
Level 5 iowa vs max level 100 Uconn, SC, LSU
Great story
Cc is a smart flopper
I see the boys in basketball but they crash hard and not cray😢 He who starts playing starts counting. He triumphs for the many girls of the future 👏👍
They have known and play with and against each other for well over a decade. They are friends, and have kept in touch. Anything else is BS. If Paige were to end up with the fever, you'd see a lot of championships there. Don't over play this drama. Do something descent for a living!
Nut brain here totally missed the point.
Paige and Caitlin knew each other from USA basketball
Imagine those two at the same school. Would have been a 4-peat.
CAITLIN NOT GOING TO UCONN WAS A BLESSING IN DISGUISE.
Pete Maravich LSU 1967-1970 averaged 44 points per game,
Clark 28. He averaged 1,222 points per year, Clark 988 per year.
Total college games played Maravich 83, Clark 139.
Pete Maravich could only play 3 college years.
Freshmen could not play. AND no 3-point line.
Ike your point was googling Stats ?
Pete took 38 shots/game to Clark's 20. Give her 18 extra shots each game at her career .462 fg % = 8.16 made shots/game or an extra 16.32 points per game X her 139 game career = an extra 2,268 points for a total of 6,219 points in her career. Pete had 3,667 in his career. He averaged roughly 1,200/season so if he had played a fourth season he would have ended his career with about 5,000 points. He didn't have the three point line but he did have his dad as his coach. Caitlin led the NCAA in scoring and assists twice, no other women's player has done that even once. However, contrasting men versus women's records isn't a fair or reasonable way to compare the players or their games. Just give much respect to both and enjoy the show.
No matter how many shots Pete took in 3 years it can never be equal to only playing 3 instead of 4 years and not having 3 point shot. Not even close and his father didn't put the ball in the hoop coach or not. Both are great shooters in their era.All Pete had to do his freshman year is average 15 points a game and no one would come close to breaking his scoring record. Give them both their due.
Sorry but remember we are comparing women basketball to men basketball much much different. A lot tougher to score in men's than women div 1
It's always going to be that way. People can't stick to the topic.
Brutal 😂😂😂😂
For the record, CC shot 7/21 from the field and 4/12 from 3, terrible. moreover, she banked in a 3 from the CORNER, a totally lucky shot. She should have shot 6/22 and 3/12, absolutely horrendous. She also had only 5 assists and 3 rebounds.....and 5 TOs! Paige shot 7/18, but 2 were half court heaves ending periods. So, basically she 44% from the field and 50% from 3, and had 9 boards, 8 assists and only 2 TOs. More importantly, Iowa was a big underdog but they hit a 3 to cut the lead to single digits half way through the 4th. Now all the pressure was on UConn, so Paige nailed a 3. Iowa came right back down and hit another 3 to cut it to single digits again, and Paige answered again with another 3 to put Uconn back up by double digits and that was it. CC didn't score in the entire forth qtr until a minute left ( in your "highlights ") on a drive that Bueckers did not contest, not wanting to foul. That's it, 2 pts in the 4th on an uncontested layup after the game was decided.....in a contest that as within 8 points in the 4th, twice, when the stars needed to step up to advance to the elite 8. Paige did, twice, to break their backs. CC shrank to nothing.
Thanks for breaking that down! The order of plays in the video are edited for dramatic purposes.
Lmao....brevity is the sole of wit....which means you are a dimwit
Where was Bueckers this year? Didn't even have the ball in her hand at the end of the game. She got shut down by Marshall. Bueckers is no Clark NOBODY is turning on the tv to watch Bueckers 🤡
Bueckers was home watching Caitlin on TV hope she's got Wnba League Pass so she can watch Caitlin win the MVp and Rookie of the year awards in 2024
but she DID make the bank shot - dont tell us what she would have done. it was a bad game for her
Imagine having Paige and Catlin on the same team, talk about a super team.
Bro this is sick
She met Paige in middle school
Paige has a lot of talent but I don’t think she’s going to adjust to the pros as fast as CC did. I also think Ju Ju Watkins has more game than Paige. That could be the difference in coaches. It’s only my opinion but one thing is for sure and that is the crop of talented young women coming up is going to make the W really fun to watch.
Paige older than cc
Both will
Geno missed on Clark because he thought he was better than he really was. Coaches like Geno start to get the big head when it’s the talent that wins the games. Is he a good coach, yes he is a good coach. I think that he is better at finding top talent. Paige has stayed hurt for most of her college career. She has not had two full years playing at ucon.
What do you think now Geno????
Women’s basketball is taking off
Juju Watkins enters the chat
Wonder where she'll end up? She is another awesome player. I saw one game where she dominated scoring 51 points breaking Caitlin's record.
Geno auriamma is just passed CC never play with them that's why he say some negative comment but obviously CC killing it in the WNBA ...geno try to coach the Chicago sky let's see if you can make them a champ..
Kind of silly, actually. Good players find ways to make other players better. I know that is the case with both of these ladies. This is why the head to head thing is often silly. They will be going after it for the next two decades and adding huge triple-figure revenue gains to the WMBA, often with little more than the dribble and pass.
Paige and Caitlin bout to battle for years…
Look how empty those stands were.
Geno is the best basketball coach in history- just ask him.
so geno wants the players to recruit him
Paige is going to get creamed in the WNBA. Clark is carrying a fair bit more muscle than Paige is and CC is getting knocked around a lot. WNBA is extremely physical. Paige needs to seriously beef up or she will get turned to mulch every game.
Yeah, and I think CC has been hitting the gym more as a pro. Paige also already had an ACL tear. Players get “careful” with physicality because of the fear that it might happen again. Most if not all, tend to be less aggressive in their plays after a major injury.
Paige is the best player on the best team......you already what it is
Positive coaches!
Caitlin remembers.
Where are the other girrls who played with CC?? They should be playing with her!!
Caitlin Clark has already shown who she is,what is Paige gonna do? She's definitely not on Caitlin's level just because some haters of Caitlin Clark says she is...
Then were all of that lady now
Yes, we are.
She is a rate beed both on the court and off. One classy, competitive young lady.
