Exactly, she wanted a record that would be very hard for someone else to break. Caitlin's first Olympic game (that is - IF she ever plays for Team USA) would be in 2028. To get 7 gold medals to beat Dinotaurasi's 6, she would be playing in that 7th Olympics in 2052. She would be 50 years old. That's probably not going to happen. (Caitlin is already a millionaire and wouldn't need the money or the dubious acclaim of being an Olympian. In the next 4 years, she's going to break every existing record that the old fossils have put on the books. So, she won't NEED that gold medal to validate her existence like DT needed this 6th one.) In 2052, DT would be 70 years old, and if she's still alive and senile dementia hasn't overtaken her by then, she could sit in her rocking chair drinking Ensure and rest on her laurels that her record of 6 golds will never be surpassed. I guess the fact that she didn't actually earn that 6th gold medal doesn't play into her calculations. She received gold #6 as a 'participation' award just for being there and warming the bench. Fun Fact: In 2004 DT was a member of her first Olympic team as a Rookie.
Taurasi's 6th gold medal was the equivalent of a participation trophy. Minutes she played in the gold medal game = ZERO. So the record is trash. I don't know anything about basketball, but it looks like Clark can hold her own against 18-year-olds, 42-year-olds (Taurasi), and every age in between. Perhaps Team USA will really embarrass itself and have Taurasi on the team for the 2028 Olympics so she can try for a 7th medal.
CC is playing actual basketball, and she makes her teammates better in every way. These petulant, spoiled little girls that make up the majority of the WNBA are not on the same level skill wise, and just can't get out of their own ways when it comes to making their league relevant.
LOL you are beyond delusional. The majority of the WNBA are at worst on teh same level as Clark. And you don't give a damn about the WNBA anyway since you will only watch Clark. You have no clue about basketball.
@@dikarilee4975 you can make a list of all time great male players who made their mark in their first year, while the team still struggled. That is a weak argument.
CC is truly talented, 99% of WNBA players are clumsy, never seen a woman with her handles and vision, just like MJ, his USA coach in 84, witnessed his talent and correctly praised him as the best ever
@@moneyflow5766 I'm not saying she's MJ, take it easy, I'm saying she might be the greatest FEMALE player ever from what I'm witnessing right now, I'm aware that the best WNBA player wouldn't have a chance against the best male highschooler
@85pearlboy and that's STILL an asinine statement. Greatest female player ever? Are you effing serious? Greater than Cheryl Miller,Cynthia Cooper,and Cheryl Swoops? Look I know you love CC,but stop the insanity.
I will never understand how NBA fans rip Turasi when Kobe praised her, if you respect Kobe, then you should respect Turasi. Turasi was not like 99% of WNBA players that you mentioned, she was actually coordinated and played with the boys growing up and you could tell because of how fluid her body moved, just because you didn't watch her in her prime doesn't change those facts. Turasi the literal reason why your seeing more talent in the WNBA now, before her and even now a lot of the WNBA athletes looked more like super models that were being marketed as athletes, where now is not the case your as starting to see real athletic women playing basketball as opposed to other sports like Gymnastics.
@@cljackson512 They would not compete up to Caitlin Clarke's level if they were starting out at the same time. Caitlin is already changing they way women will have to play to keep up. She and her team came back from a rest and beat them by how much?
@@gardengnome3249 If you didn't watch the league back when they were playing then you wouldn't know. They would own her. Yeah she'd score because she can shoot, but they're going to roast her for 30 on the other end.
I'm happy for Caitlyn and the WNBA honestly. I've been a casual fan for a few years I just enjoyed watching Sue Bird play primarily. The bitter bunch should realize that Caitlyn is GOOD for business and they should embrace it and use the new spotlight to showcase their talents and not their cattiness...yeah I said it🙀
CC has almost purposefully had a higher degree of difficulty in her play. It never made any sense when these supposed experts tried to downplay her, and good to be vindicated.
Jordan helped take the NBA global during the Olympics due to his popularity. How the WNBA couldn't see the perfect opportunity laid out before them to take their popularity to the next level due to Clark is beyond me.
Technically correct, but lets be honest here.....she needed to play 47 more games than Maravich in order to break his record. And when all said and done, she played 56 more games than Pistol Pete. It doesnt change the fact that she's scored the most points, but c'mon now.
I loathe it when people compare female players to the men. Caitlin Clark is the greatest female shooter I've ever seen, and a darned good all-around player who could end up being the best female ever. I hope she sticks it to a lot of the WNBA haters. But despite what many of her over-zealous fans seem to think, there are hundreds if not thousands of high school boys all over this country that would smoke her; players that are tall enough, quick enough and athletic enough to prevent her from even getting most of her shots off, let alone making them. Players who could easily prevent her from driving on them, players that would dribble circles around her, players who would easily score on her inside and out. She couldn't even make an NCAA men's team, let alone set the all-time men's scoring record. Pete not only set the record in far fewer games with no 3-point line, Caitlin plays with a smaller basketball. If you don't think that's an advantage, consider that the women's ball is an inch smaller all the way around. That's like Pete shooting a men's ball at a rim that is an inch wider all the way around than it currently is. Much easier and a lot more room for forgiveness for shots that are slightly off. If they played one-on-one he would destroy her. How about we give Caitlin her due in the women's and leave the silly male comparisons out of it.
@@MarkMay-cr6bv Man that's a rant! Did you type all that or did you talk in a mic, you made some good points though, anyway, her scoring and passing abilities will speak for themselves, believe it or not but her WNBA veteran teammates needed to catch up to her, and now that they are, don't they look better! Her vision and handles are next level. I compare her to Curry since there isn't another like her in her league and even Curry doesn't get that many assists, Whatever, I will keep watching and praising this generational talent. And everyone is either going to get on board or get out the way.
Imagine if Jordan was saying iverson, Kobe, Tim Duncan were going to have a rude awakening when they were rookies. He gave them props and mentorship. These women are weirdos
even during the olympic selection process from a talent perspective, it would've made total sense to put the best passer in the league on a team of all stars. imagine all the dimes cc could've had on a world stage. team usa would've gotten the views and the playmaking ability
The them/they sista’s knew if Caitlin put on the Team USA jersey would be instantly the face of the WNBA. But what they missed is they’re too late. She is
Do these idiots not realize how many viewers she is bringing to their league? Do they not realize how that increased viewership will result in them getting paid more money? Regardless how they feel, they should be publicly kissing the ground Clark walks on for that. She's made that league relevant in a way it never was prior to her arrival. Taurasi has been a great player, but how many stadiums has she ever sold out?
There are Americans who are against universal healthcare because they don't want everyone to have healthcare even though they would pay less for more coverage. Americans are that way, they would rather bring others down then flourish if that means others will flourish too.
Let’s not forget the mens team also opted to spotlight a 40yr old geezer way past their prime while making the best player on the reigning championship team ride the pine. The geezer also got the most minutes and an undeserved MVP. As much as I hate the WNBA, they seem to just be following the lead….
So accurate. I thought the same. It’s sad how the leagues diminish and insult older players from the past, then cling and falsely uplift the old players now while dissing the future. They are both living in the now and alienating fans.
Can you imagine how disappointed Catlin Clark must be playing in the WNBA. She has worked relentlessly to become the best she could be, missing out on things growing up just so she could hopefully one day play in the WNBA and have her name with the WNBA legends.. then she makes it and realizes playing with her brother in 8th grade friends are better than the WNBA players.
@@chriskay1449 most of those rebounds for Reese are her own missed baskets lmao whoaaa such impact. CC has single handedly made the fever a playoff contender, leading the league in assists and Diana T saw first hand what it’s like when Caitlin is in the zone, she’s a force all her own. The entire league guards her like she’s going to explode if she gets even an inch of room, legit nobody in the league is guarded like they guard Clark. And despite it all she’s still going to be rookie of the year no matter how delusional you haters are 😂

To be a LEGEND, you must be remembered. I knew of Diana Turausi because one day I thought to myself why is there no league bball for women and I to Googled it.
Tarausi did not contribute in winning Gold medal. She was just there to get her 6 gold medal at expense of a rookie who has changed women's basketball forever and clearly plays better than the guards selected in USA team. I believe that several players declared they don't want CC22 in the USA team. Hope their names comes out in future. Caitlin is the Jackie Robinson of our time. Undisputed champion shunned and snubbed.
So when Taurasi won those championships in college it was all weak arse crap as it was against 18 year olds? This is the geriatric establishment trying to hold to their positions and checks from the NBA without proving they can be a viable business.
GREAT recap!!!!! Diana Taurasi has NEVER defeated Caitlin Clark! 4 defeats in league play AND Taurasi and the Olympic Team lost to the Next 12 All Stars (the Rejects) 117 to 109! In that game the "Rejects" missed ten 3 point shots in a row in the second quarter! What would the score have been if they had hit their normal percentage??
@@henryfredette6735 Because I get a lot Caitlin Clark in my feed whether I click or don't click. If it makes you happy, I didn't make it past the minute thirty mark.
What a shame that the old WNBA players are attacking the sensational CC, instead of supporting and nourishing her. CC is a star and currently is the best player in the WNBA.
And what he didn’t touch on is the way EVERY single team has played her defensively from her 1st game all the way through now…. Double teams/triple teams, half court traps, full court 1 on 1 pressure. They throw every single thing possible at her all game, every game. It’s insane how badly they want to stop her, and not let her do anything just to prove a point. And what has she done instead?? Broke the record for all time assists in one game at almost 20!! And is number 1 in assists per game. Instead of being selfish and trying to force to score her points, she goes nah let me just drop tons of dimes and make my teammates better. They’ve hated on this girl soooo much. They try and hurt her constantly, take cheap shots on her,play her harder than any girl in the entire league gets played!! It’s insane how petty the WNBA players are!! The men support each other, and all become like family for the most part. The women tear each other down, and pray for their failure. Meanwhile if Clark fails their league goes back to nothing again…. The common sense doesn’t seem so common in the W!!
For the Olympics, Taurasi was injured! And Gray hadn't played in NINE months! They selected their team a month earlier than any other team in the WORLD!
LOL Diana is twice Clark's age. Clark didn't cook anything. Clark should kiss Diana;'s shoes because Clark doesn't have a league to play in without Diana. Shut the hell up.🤡
She is the first of her kind... and by that i mean a talented female basketball player. The reason for all the salt is simple... her very existence proves how bad every woman has been who has come before her... even though we have all been forced to endure the media lie that women's basketball has always been good. It hasn't.
Clark is a special, special talent and DT opened her mouth and put both feet and Sue Bird's feet in there Plus, Clark puts out so much energy and effort on the court. Frankly, most of the WNBA comes across as skating along in contrast. She's exposing the whole darn league. Before she entered the WNBA I was not a fan, but you cannot ignore reality and she's a pretty wonderful reality.
even with caitlin clark, it’s just bizarre to me that women’s basketball doesn’t expand to have their teams in smaller areas. why would you go see the fever when you can go watch the pacers right nearby. why not have wnba teams in places like mississippi, alabama, kentucky, missouri, south carolina, new mexico etc where they’re not directly competing with nba teams and other pro sports teams for fans and attendance. not like anyone goes to wnba games anyway might as well throw some of us that live in states that have no pro sports a bone.
CC in her first year just clowned Taurasi and Taurasi will leave the wnba knowing even after 20 years she was never really that good. Damn! Now when people talk about the nose Taurasi she’ll be the butt of all jokes for years to come. Got em”!!!!
Taurasi’s EGO is her enemy, and as a veteran she is not a good example for the rookies. However, what do we expect? Obviously, a woman would destroy another woman, especially if one outshines the other. Where are the feminists?
NBA = 15 players + 3 onbtwo way contract WNBA = 12 players & no two way contracts The W (through the Olympics) trashed their opportunity to present to the rest of the world the stellar possibilities available in America. The investments that could have been. Raising the temperature to a "fever" (see what I did there) pitch for women the world over that want to be a part of this new excitement. Even with that Mega buck TV deal, the overwhelming majority of gamesvwill be hidden behind a pay wall. Hey, NBC/Disney there are millions of fans that cannot afford your greed
I’ve read through several of the comments, particularly the ones who say Clark is good, but not compared to “fill in the blank”, yet in a league that one would expect has bigger, stronger, and deeper talent than 27-years ago, as a rookie she continues to bust records while elevating the play of those around her. On top of that, she’s brought a different and more exciting style of play that the players of the future are emulating and is putting butts in seats and eyeballs on T.V. screens at historic levels. As a business asset, Clark is the Golden Goose and like it or not, she will define a new WNBA in very short order. And she does all of this without being a narcissistic pain in the ass or a villain.
I'm an Angel Reese guy & I thought she was ROY this season for a while. I can really appreciate your breakdown of what has recently happened & I always thought CC was really good & needed to adjust which made me put Angel ahead. Now, it's hard to say CC isn't ROY & valuable to making the WNBA a better league going forward🤷🏿♂️💯🏀
These WNBA Legends were making remarks like Darius Miles comment to a coming HS Lebron. In Miles defense, he was only 2nd HighSchooler that time. Young in age and career IQ wise. But these WNBA Legends? Damn.
If she supposedly sucks sooo bad, then I DARE one of these teams to guard her 1 on 1 ALL game..Think any of them have the balls to do that for an entire game??

These petulant, spoiled little girls that make up the majority of the WNBA are not on the same level skill wise, and just can't get out of their own ways when it comes to making their league relevant.
LOL you are beyond delusional. The majority of the WNBA are at worst on teh same level as Clark. And you don't give a damn about the WNBA anyway since you will only watch Clark. You have no clue about basketball.
@@bswizzle5227 really with that shit record huh?
@@dikarilee4975 you can make a list of all time great male players who made their mark in their first year, while the team still struggled.
That is a weak argument.

You trolled, I mean told, me.
Anything else, genius?
So far as a new WNBA fan, I've seen CC kick everyone else's ass .The old WNBA players should watch their mouths.
CC is truly talented, 99% of WNBA players are clumsy, never seen a woman with her handles and vision, just like MJ, his USA coach in 84, witnessed his talent and correctly praised him as the best ever
CC is not MJ,stop the asinine comparison.
@@moneyflow5766 I'm not saying she's MJ, take it easy, I'm saying she might be the greatest FEMALE player ever from what I'm witnessing right now, I'm aware that the best WNBA player wouldn't have a chance against the best male highschooler
@85pearlboy and that's STILL an asinine statement. Greatest female player ever? Are you effing serious? Greater than Cheryl Miller,Cynthia Cooper,and Cheryl Swoops? Look I know you love CC,but stop the insanity.
@@moneyflow5766 who?, dude, I'm not majored in WNBA history, but I've seen the "Best highlights" and again, making the comparison , CC is way flashier
I will never understand how NBA fans rip Turasi when Kobe praised her, if you respect Kobe, then you should respect Turasi. Turasi was not like 99% of WNBA players that you mentioned, she was actually coordinated and played with the boys growing up and you could tell because of how fluid her body moved, just because you didn't watch her in her prime doesn't change those facts. Turasi the literal reason why your seeing more talent in the WNBA now, before her and even now a lot of the WNBA athletes looked more like super models that were being marketed as athletes, where now is not the case your as starting to see real athletic women playing basketball as opposed to other sports like Gymnastics.
There’s no such thing as a “WNBA Legend.” 😂
Yes there is. Their names are Candace Parker, Maya Moore, Diana Tarausi, Cheryl Swoopes, and Cynthia Cooper. I'm missing some more.
@@cljackson512 98% of sports fans couldn’t pick any of their faces out of a lineup. That’s how legendary they are.
@@ryanmorrison3699 Maybe so, but if the criteria is being a legend of a league well then yes, they do exist.
@@cljackson512 They would not compete up to Caitlin Clarke's level if they were starting out at the same time.
Caitlin is already changing they way women will have to play to keep up.
She and her team came back from a rest and beat them by how much?
@@gardengnome3249 If you didn't watch the league back when they were playing then you wouldn't know. They would own her. Yeah she'd score because she can shoot, but they're going to roast her for 30 on the other end.
I'm happy for Caitlyn and the WNBA honestly. I've been a casual fan for a few years I just enjoyed watching Sue Bird play primarily. The bitter bunch should realize that Caitlyn is GOOD for business and they should embrace it and use the new spotlight to showcase their talents and not their cattiness...yeah I said it🙀
Thank you for this. I'll show my wife so she can see why I am so enchanted with watching Caitlin.
Anyone who knows ball immediately recognized Clark as a legit baller
CC just showed DT old, insignificant fossil level. And DT just learned insignificant bench riding gold medalist.
3 loses to the fever and 1 loss to the All Stars 😂 reality hit hard alright. 😂
Reality did come for the Dinaurasi. 😂😂😂😂
CC has almost purposefully had a higher degree of difficulty in her play. It never made any sense when these supposed experts tried to downplay her, and good to be vindicated.
Caitlyn Clark is the FEMALE GOAT!
The reality is coming. There's levels to this. It's time to retire!
Taurasi has been unwatchable for 25 years barelly knew who she was.
That video of DT saying "Reality is coming" will never die. It will continue to haunt her long after she is gone and until CC retires.
Team USA should've lost the finals. The ref bailed them out with 34 free throws. Disgusting
So you put Clark over America 🇺🇸 🤔 u wanted them to lose is crazy get a hold of yourself it's only one man
Well they won. Cope Clark cry baby.

I wonder how she'd answer SVP for her getting the "reality check" instead of Catlin!
😂😂😂
Jordan helped take the NBA global during the Olympics due to his popularity. How the WNBA couldn't see the perfect opportunity laid out before them to take their popularity to the next level due to Clark is beyond me.
Jealousy is very strong emotion for women and weak-minded men. They let that run their lives too often.
They really lacked playmaking in Olympics and it showed. France would have been a breeze if she was on court.
Did they lose or something?
With her lack of defense and a turnover machine? No, they didn't need her.
@moneyflow5766 lol I see your avatar based on fake history and know exactly why you say that
@@BigMoneyMike127 they won by one point against France.
@@theflyingkaramazovbrothers6 😆 the classic "I'm white and I say so" fake according to who?
Turasi is scared of a rookie forcing her to retire. Out with the old and in with the new.
This woman is the all time leading scorer in NCAA history! Men or women, what the hell were these people thinking! 🤔
Technically correct, but lets be honest here.....she needed to play 47 more games than Maravich in order to break his record. And when all said and done, she played 56 more games than Pistol Pete. It doesnt change the fact that she's scored the most points, but c'mon now.
@@neptunevinylPete did it in three years with no 3 pointers, I loved watching him play along with Jerry west
I loathe it when people compare female players to the men. Caitlin Clark is the greatest female shooter I've ever seen, and a darned good all-around player who could end up being the best female ever. I hope she sticks it to a lot of the WNBA haters. But despite what many of her over-zealous fans seem to think, there are hundreds if not thousands of high school boys all over this country that would smoke her; players that are tall enough, quick enough and athletic enough to prevent her from even getting most of her shots off, let alone making them. Players who could easily prevent her from driving on them, players that would dribble circles around her, players who would easily score on her inside and out. She couldn't even make an NCAA men's team, let alone set the all-time men's scoring record. Pete not only set the record in far fewer games with no 3-point line, Caitlin plays with a smaller basketball. If you don't think that's an advantage, consider that the women's ball is an inch smaller all the way around. That's like Pete shooting a men's ball at a rim that is an inch wider all the way around than it currently is. Much easier and a lot more room for forgiveness for shots that are slightly off. If they played one-on-one he would destroy her. How about we give Caitlin her due in the women's and leave the silly male comparisons out of it.
@@MarkMay-cr6bv Man that's a rant! Did you type all that or did you talk in a mic, you made some good points though, anyway, her scoring and passing abilities will speak for themselves, believe it or not but her WNBA veteran teammates needed to catch up to her, and now that they are, don't they look better! Her vision and handles are next level. I compare her to Curry since there isn't another like her in her league and even Curry doesn't get that many assists, Whatever, I will keep watching and praising this generational talent. And everyone is either going to get on board or get out the way.
Imagine if Jordan was saying iverson, Kobe, Tim Duncan were going to have a rude awakening when they were rookies. He gave them props and mentorship. These women are weirdos
even during the olympic selection process from a talent perspective, it would've made total sense to put the best passer in the league on a team of all stars. imagine all the dimes cc could've had on a world stage. team usa would've gotten the views and the playmaking ability
Imagine CC throwing those dimes to other players that will catch them at a higher rate than her WNBA team mates, that’d be some crazy numbers.
Reality is grandma knew she was too old to compete at the olympics. CC is her natural replacement. She had to get rid of CC by any means necessary.
The them/they sista’s knew if Caitlin put on the Team USA jersey would be instantly the face of the WNBA. But what they missed is they’re too late. She is
Do these idiots not realize how many viewers she is bringing to their league? Do they not realize how that increased viewership will result in them getting paid more money? Regardless how they feel, they should be publicly kissing the ground Clark walks on for that. She's made that league relevant in a way it never was prior to her arrival. Taurasi has been a great player, but how many stadiums has she ever sold out?
Oh, they realize. But since it’s not *them* that’s responsible for those things, it’s driving them crazy.
There are Americans who are against universal healthcare because they don't want everyone to have healthcare even though they would pay less for more coverage. Americans are that way, they would rather bring others down then flourish if that means others will flourish too.
Got to love the wnbgay
women mentality
Complain that nobody
watches, now that people watch, complain about why they watch
Let’s not forget the mens team also opted to spotlight a 40yr old geezer way past their prime while making the best player on the reigning championship team ride the pine. The geezer also got the most minutes and an undeserved MVP. As much as I hate the WNBA, they seem to just be following the lead….
So accurate. I thought the same. It’s sad how the leagues diminish and insult older players from the past, then cling and falsely uplift the old players now while dissing the future.
They are both living in the now and alienating fans.
If Caitlin Clark was on the Olympic team there would had been twice as much viewership for the gold medal game.
It is better be thought a fool than to speak and remove all doubt!
Can you imagine how disappointed Catlin Clark must be playing in the WNBA. She has worked relentlessly to become the best she could be, missing out on things growing up just so she could hopefully one day play in the WNBA and have her name with the WNBA legends.. then she makes it and realizes playing with her brother in 8th grade friends are better than the WNBA players.
Remember that forced debate for ROTY between CC and Angel Reese 😂😂😂
There is still a debate. Reese = double double machine. Clark = turnover machine. You Clark stans live in fantasy world.
@@chriskay1449 You obviously haven't been watching her games. Her teammates are asleep when CC passes to them, that's why the turnovers.
@@DrSoul-cv9rf LOL here come the excuses
@@chriskay1449 most of those rebounds for Reese are her own missed baskets lmao whoaaa such impact. CC has single handedly made the fever a playoff contender, leading the league in assists and Diana T saw first hand what it’s like when Caitlin is in the zone, she’s a force all her own. The entire league guards her like she’s going to explode if she gets even an inch of room, legit nobody in the league is guarded like they guard Clark. And despite it all she’s still going to be rookie of the year no matter how delusional you haters are 😂
@@chriskay1449Clark tied a WNBA rookie record with seven three-pointers, joining Crystal Robinson as the only players to make that many shots from behind the arc in their first year in the league.
Following Indiana's win over the Sky, Clark joined Liberty star Sabrina Ionescu as the only players in WNBA history to record 150 points, 50 rebounds and 50 assists in their first 10 games.
The Fever rookie sat at 202 points, 76 assists and 64 rebounds in just 12 games. She became the fastest WNBA player to reach at least 200 points and 50 assists in league history
With her performance against the Sky, Clark became the fastest player in WNBA history to record 200-plus points, 75-plus rebounds and 75-plus assists. Through the first 15 games of her WNBA career, Clark has tallied 242 points, 93 assists and 76 rebounds. Clark also has 19 steals and 15 blocks on the season.
To be a LEGEND, you must be remembered. I knew of Diana Turausi because one day I thought to myself why is there no league bball for women and I to Googled it.
Tarausi did not contribute in winning Gold medal. She was just there to get her 6 gold medal at expense of a rookie who has changed women's basketball forever and clearly plays better than the guards selected in USA team. I believe that several players declared they don't want CC22 in the USA team. Hope their names comes out in future.
Caitlin is the Jackie Robinson of our time. Undisputed champion shunned and snubbed.
Yes grandma, the reality of Clark has spanked you again and again. LOL
So when Taurasi won those championships in college it was all weak arse crap as it was against 18 year olds? This is the geriatric establishment trying to hold to their positions and checks from the NBA without proving they can be a viable business.
These same women disrespecting Clark will try and be coaches and wonder why they didn't get the job.
GREAT recap!!!!! Diana Taurasi has NEVER defeated Caitlin Clark! 4 defeats in league play AND Taurasi and the Olympic Team lost to the Next 12 All Stars (the Rejects) 117 to 109! In that game the "Rejects" missed ten 3 point shots in a row in the second quarter! What would the score have been if they had hit their normal percentage??
Thy are right my friend. She has not made herself yet. She is putting up numbers on a bad team with horrible shooting percentages.
I cut another vid off mid sentence to click this
I cut off my own scrotum to read this.
I didn't watch one Olympics women's basketball game. But then again, I've still never watched a WNBA game ever.
Yet here you are.
The Fever play at 2:30 pm central tomorrow (Sunday) on CBS. Do yourself the favor...
I never used to watch WNBA games until now, when CC started playing.
@@henryfredette6735 Because I get a lot Caitlin Clark in my feed whether I click or don't click. If it makes you happy, I didn't make it past the minute thirty mark.
@@DannerPlace I don't have anything against Caitlin Clark. I watched a few of her college games. She won't stop the WNBA from being trash though.
Well said!!! It makes NO sense for DT to be on the team…AND DIDN’T GET ANY BURN IN THE GOLD MEDAL GAME!!!
Wrong. She was a locker room leader and a very valuable voice where her decade plus experience in FIBA ball. Clark has none of that. Sit down.
What a shame that the old WNBA players are attacking the sensational CC, instead of supporting and nourishing her. CC is a star and currently is the best player in the WNBA.
And what he didn’t touch on is the way EVERY single team has played her defensively from her 1st game all the way through now…. Double teams/triple teams, half court traps, full court 1 on 1 pressure. They throw every single thing possible at her all game, every game. It’s insane how badly they want to stop her, and not let her do anything just to prove a point. And what has she done instead?? Broke the record for all time assists in one game at almost 20!! And is number 1 in assists per game. Instead of being selfish and trying to force to score her points, she goes nah let me just drop tons of dimes and make my teammates better. They’ve hated on this girl soooo much. They try and hurt her constantly, take cheap shots on her,play her harder than any girl in the entire league gets played!! It’s insane how petty the WNBA players are!! The men support each other, and all become like family for the most part. The women tear each other down, and pray for their failure. Meanwhile if Clark fails their league goes back to nothing again…. The common sense doesn’t seem so common in the W!!
USA ladies basketball shat the bed by not adding CC.
Spoke too soon, never always underestimate someone!
Actually Indiana is 3-0 against Phoenix after yesterday
For the Olympics, Taurasi was injured! And Gray hadn't played in NINE months! They selected their team a month earlier than any other team in the WORLD!
to be fair taurasi is like 600 years old in pro athlete years
Diana should kiss CC shoes 😂😂😂 she got over cooked by CC. Hey Diana who's your Mommy now? 😂😂😂
LOL Diana is twice Clark's age. Clark didn't cook anything. Clark should kiss Diana;'s shoes because Clark doesn't have a league to play in without Diana. Shut the hell up.🤡
That dude laughing and clapping..you think he's still doing that now?
It’s easy to look good playing against 40 year olds.
Not putting Clark on the Olympic team was a total own goal
She is the first of her kind... and by that i mean a talented female basketball player.
The reason for all the salt is simple... her very existence proves how bad every woman has been who has come before her... even though we have all been forced to endure the media lie that women's basketball has always been good. It hasn't.
The Olympic committee sent the B team to the Olympics!
This would’ve never happened if CC was 🏳️🌈
So true.
Or more melanated.
Diana is pissed because she knows she's losing her GOAT status
The WNBA is still a laughing stock.
Clark is a special, special talent and DT opened her mouth and put both feet and Sue Bird's feet in there Plus, Clark puts out so much energy and effort on the court. Frankly, most of the WNBA comes across as skating along in contrast. She's exposing the whole darn league. Before she entered the WNBA I was not a fan, but you cannot ignore reality and she's a pretty wonderful reality.
Her comment wasn't directed exclusively at Clark. It's born out true of all the other rookies.
I began to watch WNBA because of CC. She’s phenomenal player. Best ever female basketball player
“Destiny arrives all the same.”
Caitlin Clark is already the 🐐 in wnba history.
Sad league
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
even with caitlin clark, it’s just bizarre to me that women’s basketball doesn’t expand to have their teams in smaller areas.
why would you go see the fever when you can go watch the pacers right nearby. why not have wnba teams in places like mississippi, alabama, kentucky, missouri, south carolina, new mexico etc where they’re not directly competing with nba teams and other pro sports teams for fans and attendance.
not like anyone goes to wnba games anyway might as well throw some of us that live in states that have no pro sports a bone.
Because the NBA teams own the WNBA teams.
Who would want to actually be in those states just to watch women’s basketball and you need big markets in order to be successful
CC in her first year just clowned Taurasi and Taurasi will leave the wnba knowing even after 20 years she was never really that good. Damn! Now when people talk about the nose Taurasi she’ll be the butt of all jokes for years to come. Got em”!!!!
Corruption in the WNBA😮 well said 😂 now showing how many times CC has been attacked on the court. ❤❤❤❤
Taurasi’s EGO is her enemy, and as a veteran she is not a good example for the rookies. However, what do we expect? Obviously, a woman would destroy another woman, especially if one outshines the other. Where are the feminists?
Lost a lot of respect for SVP the way he was clapping and laughing like an ESPN puppet
Grown women? They act like middle schoolers
NBA = 15 players + 3 onbtwo way contract
WNBA = 12 players & no two way contracts
The W (through the Olympics) trashed their opportunity to present to the rest of the world the stellar possibilities available in America. The investments that could have been. Raising the temperature to a "fever" (see what I did there) pitch for women the world over that want to be a part of this new excitement.
Even with that Mega buck TV deal, the overwhelming majority of gamesvwill be hidden behind a pay wall. Hey, NBC/Disney there are millions of fans that cannot afford your greed
Transition period is over... CC is inevitable time to bring that smoke.
lol “grown women” as if there’s any overwhelming strength or athleticism to worry about in the wnba
Turasi has never had a triple double
Now, if Caitlin will just add in some smack talk, such as constantly calling her next shot, then it will really resemble Larry Bird’s ROY season.
The thugs she plays against cant be trusted
I’ve read through several of the comments, particularly the ones who say Clark is good, but not compared to “fill in the blank”, yet in a league that one would expect has bigger, stronger, and deeper talent than 27-years ago, as a rookie she continues to bust records while elevating the play of those around her. On top of that, she’s brought a different and more exciting style of play that the players of the future are emulating and is putting butts in seats and eyeballs on T.V. screens at historic levels. As a business asset, Clark is the Golden Goose and like it or not, she will define a new WNBA in very short order. And she does all of this without being a narcissistic pain in the ass or a villain.
I'm an Angel Reese guy & I thought she was ROY this season for a while. I can really appreciate your breakdown of what has recently happened & I always thought CC was really good & needed to adjust which made me put Angel ahead. Now, it's hard to say CC isn't ROY & valuable to making the WNBA a better league going forward🤷🏿♂️💯🏀
Stop simping for Reese
@@visualizeme-tz3ng thanks for showing your ignorance Sir Clown
These WNBA Legends were making remarks like Darius Miles comment to a coming HS Lebron.
In Miles defense, he was only 2nd HighSchooler that time. Young in age and career IQ wise.
But these WNBA Legends? Damn.
Tarausi was not face guarded 90 ft out and double, triple teamed past halfway.
I think Diana was talking about her own reality was coming
Not to mention the way she handles herself off the court.
Safe to say the league is better now than when Taurasi was a rook, too
If she supposedly sucks sooo bad, then I DARE one of these teams to guard her 1 on 1 ALL game..Think any of them have the balls to do that for an entire game??
She Bonafide to deny that is comical
WMBA is its own worst enemy
Yup
And now they will say that CC is playing grandma's in the league😂😂😂
Pride comes before the fall....
Never watched wnba until Clark . If Clark don’t get the rookie off the yr it’s rigged
