Alanna smith is a focal point of the lynx's success ,she's versatile ,effective shot blocker ,great passer and can guard 1-5 ,she's the equivalent of a libero in soccer,with the ability to read the game very well,totally agree with bridget carleton for MIP over hull due to consistency.
Good selections. Wilson, Clark & Collier. Can’t argue against those three. Carleson for the Lynx might be the most underrated player…. She has made a lot of big shots for that team.
It was close at the start, but the gap grew wider and wider throughout the season. Right now you would have to be insane to pick anyone other than Clark
@@ToddOneal-q4s Maybe because their Star Point Guard, Chelsea Gray, was injured. They are 20-8 since her return and have Won 8 out of their last 9, the hottest team in the league. A'ja has been dominating the entire season with no one even remotely close to her but a team's record is based on the health of the other players. They would be even higher than the 4th seed without Gray's injury. And the 4th seed is perfectly acceptable when you have three other teams this year with great records. It's like you don't even follow the game or something.
@mikegall7542 Maybe. In my opinion Phee Collier is a much better all-around player. She can play any position, puts up the numbers and elevates her team. Phee for MVP.
@ToddOneal-q4s I love Phee, but her numbers pale in comparison to A'ja this year. A'ja had a Shaquille O'Neal type of year for the WNBA A'ja will be runaway MVP. I don't care if it's Unanimous or not, but it won't be close.
The same guy who said if Indiana beats the Vegas twice in a row Caitlin Clark should be the MVP. Says it does not matter that the Aces beat the Fever 4 times in a row. Seems like wins only matter for certain players.
I like Clark but her being better than Wilson is crazy when she becomes a better defender we can have that convo. Clark has exceeded expectations which were already high but she ain’t on Wilsons level yet which to be honestly will be next season at worst her 3rd year
I GUARANTEE you that her Nike contract forces her to stay in the WNBA. Nike would never have spent 20 mil on her if she was leaving the US to play overseas.
It’s kind of annoying that people expect Clark to be the absolute best in her first year. Im a Hawkeye fan, I adore her and the ink the most about her but honestly I’m looking forward to witnessing her rise. Why would we want her to start out at the very top?? Like you said she has to improve her defense. We should enjoy watching her get better and better, it’s going to be a ride. But she’s not at Wilson’s level yet.
@@heavymetalgaming6209 I agree thats my point she will be great but people are putting way to much on her plate to early which is unfair to her when she has exceeded expectations
@@sassenachdragon It is annoying its like we know she will be great but its not instant but the tools that made her great in college she made those strengths work on the next level but has holes that will only make her better if she works on them
My take in this. The best rookies are Clark, Reese, Cardoso, Jackson, and Fiebich. However, All-League teams are selected by having 2 guards, 2 Forwards and 1 Center. So, All-Rookie team are (G) Clark (G) Vanloo (F) Jackson (F) Reese (C) Cardoso Sheldon is possible for Vanloo. Fiebich is possible to take Jackson’s spot because of team record. The other 3 is locked. All Def 1st Team: (G) Carrington (G) Bonner (F) Collier (F) Stewart (C) Wilson All Def 2nd Team (G) Courney Williams (G) Diggins-Smith (F) Thomas (F) Alanna Smith (C) Magbegor Jonquel is in consideration. MVP Wilson Defensive Player of The Year Collier Some consideration for Wilson. Rookie of The Year Clark 6th Man Hayes Fiebich is in consideration. Most Improved Player Carleton Harris is in consideration. Hamby was already good before, she just played more minutes on a losing team. Same with Sims.
To those who are butt hurt that Caitlin isn't getting MVP... relax. She's a Monster in the making. There will come a time when she is so overwhelmingly dominant, she'd be shoving that reality down the throats of any hater. Swoopes will be coughing for the rest of her life.
HELP! Can someone help me with this? I'm from Sweden and have bought a League Pass from WNBA, but the last Fever game I could only watch after it was finished. The same goes for the next two games against Connecticut. Why is that? I have e-mailed WNBA but they are just blabbering. What can I do??? Please somebody advise me!
Ask the Germans to try take over the world again. W doesn’t want international fans, that’s why they left CC off the Olympic Team. International fans will only help expose the lie that they are all somehow oppressed and need special treatment and should be allowed to behave poorly. They are terrified of accountability.
The last game was on Amazon prime , the next playoff games won't be on the wnba pass until maybe after the game but the Sunday game is on abc and next game is ESPN and ESPN2 so when it's broadcast on a different broadcast it's normally then on the app after the game . Those broadcast own the rights so u have to watch it on the perspective station live . I bought Sling to watch the ESPN games live
The NBA MVP is rarely ever on the team with the most wins. It's usually giving to the most outstanding player. Aja is clearly the best player in the WNBA at the moment.
It’s almost like MVP isn’t based on past years compared to current years. She didn’t have the same team and players as she had last year, also some of the players she had last year fell off A LOT. She literally had the best season in wnba history and y’all are still questioning it because your so insanely biased lol
@@vernieistoooldshe’s also #1 in a ton of other stats, Efficiency rating. Per, blocks + steals combined leader, offensive wins shares and a few more im forgetting
Can’t believe Hammon is coach of the month. Almost as bad as Sides getting coach of the month. Yep I’m going to get blown up with hate with my views on Hammon but we’re all entitled to our views. A leader who creates a toxic culture should be fired. She was fined, had to be suspended and cost her team a pick. She’s engaged in some not so ok under the table team cap actions. Zero respect for this coach. I really hope Hamby wins her case.
If they don't give it to her and I were Clark, I would leave the league and do a Harlem Globe Trotters type thing which would appeal to her family base. She would sell more and make more. Everyone says she funny so it would be perfect for her. She could be the female Meadowlark Lemon.
@@aden538 It's just what I'd do because I don't want to see her get disrespected and/or hurt. And, maybe that would change the WNBA for the better so she would come back.
And put her where? All defense? She had a bad defensive rating. You have to be in the mid to low 90’s and Boston was like 107. All W any team was out of the question.
Reese will make the 2nd team defense. She’s played very well guarding Aja, Collier, Stewie and Thomas and Bonner. It doesn’t matter the strengths. Quick? No problem. Physical? No problem. Her last game Jackson had 25 points in the first half and the switched Angel to cover her and shut her down in the 2nd half.
😂😂😂 Win the championship? I don't think they'll make it out of the first round. Unlike every other team in the playoffs, the Fever have two opponents, the other team, and Coach Christie Sides. I think they will probably sneak one win past her in Connecticut (which she'll take credit for) but Sides will almost certainly snatch defeat from the jaws of victory in game 3. Just my prediction.
When Caitlin files her taxes, can she list the entire WNBA as a dependent?
Ding! Ding!Ding!

I think Kelsey Mitchell should get that spot over copper she shooting way more efficiently while still giving you top 10 scoring
MVP And DPOY = A'ja = The most Dominant Season ever and NO ONE is in her League
RPOY - Caitlin Clark = Clear Choice
Simple
Then why are they in 4th place after winning the Championship?
Doesn't seem like a clear cut MVP performance.

I been waiting for this video

No Chennedy Carter?
How is Clark not the DPOY????? l8l jkjk 😂😂😂
MTH 👍👏👏👏🤙💪
I like Rickea Jackson as a Rookie better than Cardoso !! She is a great defender and good shooter too!
Yes, I agree
Why is Aja the MVP? Vegas won the Championship last year and they are only in 4th place this year. Not an MVP performance to me.
The numbers she put up are way better 27 points and 12 rebounds is like wilt chamberlain numbers and also a playoff team as well
Maybe because she is #1 in scoring, rebounding and blocked shots.
