The media need to stop with the BS that Angel Reese said that people are only watching because of herself …. They sound so full of hate for a person they haven’t even interviewed or don’t even know. Think about this….the people that do not watch college sports did not know about AR or CC until the viral moment. Those people became aware of them at the same time…the media just choose sides and made people love one over the other….but when you choose one you don’t have to hate the other…they both play different positions so of course their stats are going to be different…..so no one is debating who broke the record or score the most points in college. With the internet I also saw what AR said so if you haven’t seen it please watch for yourself….AR said that people are also ( the key word is also) watching the WNBA because of herself including other players past and present in the league AR was giving credit to other players also ( in addition to the moment where the hand gesture became viral and connected the two player forever and the rivalry led to them now creating additional hype in WNBA. she has fans and CC has fans who are now watching the WNBA. she never said she has more fans than CC or that she sores more points or she never said that people only know about CC because of her…..
Everyday you wake up, look at the news, and see men tearing down other men in sports, government and entertainment. It's not that your statement is wrong about women tearing down other women, but it's incomplete. It implies that men are above it all when in reality, we are just as likely to tear each other down in far more damaging ways. Then, when you combine that with what men have done historically to women and their quest to gain equality, the statement about women carries even less weight.
💥💯🎤💥💯🎤💥💯🎤💥💯🎤💥 Can't understand how this goes over everyone's head. Wanna find the truth...go to the comment section on major social websites and there you'll find all the meat on the bones. It's jealousy, emotions and competition displayed yo.
aint nobody jealous matter fact WNBA on now Chennedy Carter has 15 points and the game not over yet and she facing the team that CC only had 3 points against 😂😂😭
Notice how Clark doesn’t have to talk.. but gets talked about. Angel Reese however.. never stops talking about herself to make herself relevant. Debate settled.
@@leonzaduncan2438 Angel really does bring the women out, baddies too they all know and love her. meanwhile a bunch of weird couch dudes are CC #1 fan 😂😂
Im from the Caribbean and to me The WNBA was not exciting to look at until CC came along..Now my 2 daughters and I are glued the TV whenever she is playing..
The ridiculous foul while calling her a b****, and all the negative comments after, sure seems like petty jealousy to me, whether people have a problem with it or not. Not sure why that's being called a false narrative? Seems pretty obvious to me.
It's been embarrassing. You can see some of the same nonsense was directed at Lebron when he came into the league. His own team utterly embarrassed themselves when talking about him getting drafted on to a god awful Cavs team.
Clark fouled her dirty first it was retaliation the news is making her an victim cause she's the great white hope and y'all falling for it cause u don't wat h the wnba unless the wg is playing
Also, you see Clark hit Carter in the face prior? She may have done it unintentionally... She isn't a skilled defender or rebounder... no one really mentions that... Was Carter wrong... yes... was Clark wrong... yes... flagrant foul by Carter.... move on... 3 wins by the Fever? Sun undefeated.... they have other concerns this season lol
The only time any of these shows mentioned the WNBA before Catlin Clark in the past 10+ years was the Britney Grinder prisoner exchange situation (which had nothing to do with the actual basketball.) now they are talking about things that happen in WNBA games.
Exactly, This is due to Caitlin Clark 100% people need to just back up and appreciate. No one really cares about Reese, other than for some reality show drama bit if you are tuning in for the game, the skills, and good person, than Caitlin is the draw
Angel Reese said the WNBA isn’t popular because of one player, it’s also because of her. So, two players basically? She doesn’t care that one player is the biggest star, she’s mad that’s not her.
Angel Reeses celebrity comes from being a dramatic social media influencer not a basketball player. Almost all the attention she got had little to nothing to do with on court performance.
Listen to the whole statement. She said there are other players as well. Then she added her self included. Selective reading or hearing you have. Just like the media being selective on what hit that hard foul from Carter. She elbowed her in the face & then started jawing her mouth. (Foul was inappropriate, but she’s no saint) Didn’t see her jawing on her whooping 3 point game against the Liberty.
She said that when she's done with basketball, she wants to look back at her career and the impact on growing the WNBA won't just be because of one person, it'll be because of her too
AR is a below average player that gives off vibes that she would resort to OF if this hoops thing didn’t pan out CC is recognized for her game on the court AR is noted for off court reasons
@@kashifsingh791 uh, no they wouldn’t. Do me a favor. Google most dirty nba players. Guarantee you #1 is bill laimbeer aka a white guy who cheap shotted tons of people. Nobody was defending him, he was a scumbag. Deal with it, take accountability, and just admit the girls a scumbag too.
This reminds of when Iguodala tried to shout out that one WNBA player and she took it as disrespect cause he didn’t know her name…Seems the WNBA always has a way of turning positive publicity into something negative and I fear it’s going to happen again and drive the new base away.
The "new base"? No there are WNBA fans and Caitlyn Clark fans. You "new" people are late to the party. Y'all missed Diana Tarausi, Sue Bird, Candace Parker, Tameka Catchings, Maya Moore......just late.
Wait... we are defending Chennedy Carter? 😂😂😂 Angel Reese cheering that hit like they are in Game 7 of the finals. That ain't normal high intensity basketball...
@@57harrierstrikes Oh there's definitely more. She later went on Twitter, liking posts, and said all she does is shoot. She brings nothing else to the table.
I don’t hate the quote on its own, it’s the celebration angel did when her teammate did a non basketball play to the girl she’s clearly envious of that speaks volumes
Why is it jealousy and envy? Everytime Caitlin is brought up the women in the league are jealous. Of what? These ladies are living their lives on and off the court. It was physical game before Caitlin, and it's continued to be that with her in the league.
They left out the part of the quote where Angel Reese said the WNBA is popular not just because of Caitlyn Clark but because of her and Caitlyn Clark. So she’s cool with disrespecting literally every other player as long as she’s not included. She doesn’t care that Clark is popular she cares that Clark is more popular than she is. She thinks she’s entitled to be the WNBA’s Steph Curry but her problem is she’s got the game of Draymond Green.
It’s insane to me that people are not viewing this quote in the context of that moment. Like, ok, she jumped to her feet and started cheering when her teammate threw a cheap shot at Clark. Then gives a ‘she’s not the only special one, we have lots of other special people. Like me, I’m special.’ And we’re not supposed to interpret that as envy? Reese has pretty clearly always disliked the amount of buzz Clark gets, and this is just another incident of her trying to hijack some of it.
@@lsvids595 lord y’all are soft af. How about Angel was encouraging her teammate after cc elbowed her in the head, then trash talked her down the court and the Carter promptly hit a jumper in her face and paid her back. I’ve seen hockey players body check a player and we don’t bat an eye. But since it’s cc yall want to cry. I guarantee you didn’t care when Angel got choke slammed.
It’s Caitlin who’s the reason for the turn in attention the league is getting. Cause she’s actually a good basketball player. Oh, and it’s absolutely racial. The media and other players have gone on and on about how “white privilege” plays a role in this. So yeah it’s racial.
I have not watched this women play a minute of basketball. I probably wont. If she was Japanese would not the Japanese want to all come out and watch her. So would all the other ethnicities minus the blacks want to pull for this Japanese. Blacks seem not to pull for anybody but their own and I respect that. I watch and pull for only 2 teams . Denver and Dallas. Guess Why? I pulled for Houston when YAO was there. Pau with the Lakers. We are tribal or pull for the underdog. It is OK. It is not racist. So yes this skinny homely looking white girl is getting a lot of non blacks to tune in and watch her play.
Angel Reese made it a rival because of her obsession with getting attention. Caitlin Clark just wants to play, compete, and win. Caitlin Clark is not looking for rivals and fights. That’s what makes her so special because she keeps her composure and is very classy. Caitlin Clark is a very well outspoken, educated female .
I feel sorry for you having to watch her. It's very painful to watch. Miss 70% of her shoots. Turn the ball over at insane rates. Her led in turns over everyone else in the league in huge. She is leading by a mile almost over two a game over second place. If that's the reason you watch why? She actually makes her team worse when she is on the floor.
@@bestrong8543 when someone hate on Angel, you the type that threaten people, you need to relax bro, its just a game and hope you became positive and enjoy life
them girls not jealous 😂 DT is a 3x champ 5x scoring champ got called white mamba by kobe WNBA all time leading scorer 3 gold metals yeah people jealous lmao
@@alexanderdumas- first off you pocket watching a women who still makes more than you and newscap goofy they have endorsements. even ones don’t know bozo like dana evans whos signed to Jordan on a multi year deal clown get YOUR money up and stop worrying about others doing better than you ya time almost up lol
I only got interested in the WNBA, because of Caitlyn Clark. I only got interested in the NBA, because of Michael Jordan. I started tuning in to watch them, and found other players to root for, too. Dennis Rodman...my favorite NBA player. Right now, Clark's my favorite WNBA player. Note: Since some are claiming Clark's only reason for breaking the all-time college scoring record was because she took more shots than anyone else, let's compare her to Maravich (per ESPN)! Maravich: 83 games. 38.1 shots/game. 44.2 pts/game. Total shots: 3,162 Clark: 129 games. 19.9 shots/game. 28.3 pts/game. Total shots: 2,567 She broke Maravich's record taking less shots, despite playing more games. If she HAD taken as many shots/game at her rate, she'd have been in the 56 pts/game region! So, give her her due, she's a very efficient scorer! Now, let's reduce the turnovers🤭
How was the last encounter between Angel Reeks and Queen Caity? Reese/Clark... Points: 10/31 Assists: 2/12 Combined Scoring (pts & ast): 14/55 Field Throws: 40%/90% Field Goals: 44%/57% Mins Played: 31/32 +/-: -7/+23 3 Pointers: 0/3 Turnovers: 4/3 Score: 81/100 Games Played: 1-3/3-1 And this game was IN Chicago and ON "Barbie Night" or as I like to call it, "Barbi-Q Night" because not only did Caitlin cook Angel, she roasted her! 😂 Then, to add insult to injury, not only did she twist the knife of defeat after inserting it, she went on to hype up the crowd in Reese's hometown and while Reese ran off the court after the final buzzer, Caitlin stayed behind to sign autographs on Barbie shirts meant for Reese AND literally got a standing ovation from the crowd!
Can you guys imagine if Reese never hit Clark with that "You can't see me"? Are we even talking about her? It's in Reese's best interest to keep the beef alive as long as possible since the only player any casual fan really follows in the WNBA is Caitlin Clark.
How you realized that CC became relevant in that moment was a nice take😉, but instead you inserted CC's name where it should be Angel that made CC a household name. How many Iowa games y'all watched before that moment? I mean, she played a whole season before that incident, yet I & most had never heard of CC until people got in their feelings.🤔
The drama plays a part in why women’s basketball is getting noticed because that’s the main talking point. Sports is a reality tv show and women beefing is a ratings draw.
That’s exactly what I said, people live beef, and men love to watch women fighting and that’s just facts. So angel and Caitlin going at it was kinda interesting, mix really other of their talents in there and then the racial component and didn’t ding you have a dollar signs flying everywhere.
Men don't like women fighting unless its the UFC. We will be more interested in the sport and competition. Women are finally tuning in to watch because of the drama and cat fight of it. They know sport entirely is still boring watch. Lol
No, it works both ways as race is also among the reasons Clark is elevated when she hasn't won anything meaningful. When has a losing team been invited to the White House? When has a player been called the GOAT when she's never won a championship on any level? When have ratings and having a logo 3 equated to you being better than players who have achieved more professionally? Yes, you are correct that race plays a role in the attitude many players have against her, but that same element along with her sexuality and midwestern roots has also become a proxy for why there's been an influx of largely white fans who are now rooting her on.
@@JB-tp6uj You do realize how crazy you sound right? First of all, why are you being negative about the influx of fans? Even if they're white, you say it like that's a bad thing? Should we have been like "Oh great, there's been a huge spike in black viewership ever since this tiger woods guy showed up"? No, because that would be idiotic. Now let me tackle this whole attitude you have towards people thinking she's a big deal. Are you really confused on why people think she's a great talent? It's college, you get max 4 years to get a ring, she went to a far lesser basketball school who gets nowhere near the top level recruits, was contributing to like 70% of the teams points, set a bunch of individual records, dragged the team to the finals twice, and got beat by far better teams. And you act like that's some horrible thing. If you were around in 2007, would you be talking like "Why are people so hyped about this lebron guy? He lost to the spurs in the finals." yeah, he dragged that cavs team and got smacked by the spurs who had the far better team. A championship is a TEAM award, it doesn't matter how good one player is, they can't solo win the entire thing.
@@limitedbom2206 Yeah, um...you read way too much into that. Stating that the influx of fans are white is not a negative thing. It's simply a statement of reality and many of them are identifying with her because of her skin color in the same way that many are hating on her because of skin color. That was the point...that the racial element is not one-sided. At no point did I say her accolades were to be dismissed. But those accolades don't include a championship, which her team was good enough to win. Stop with this narrative that the other team was far and away better than them. You seem to conveniently leave out that Iowa beat an undefeated South Carolina team the year before to reach the championship game. So they were more than capable to beat LSU or South Carolina again. Caitlin and Iowa had a chance to win either game, but they didn't play well...and she didn't play well as an individual. That wasn't a case of being overmatched....Caitlin and Iowa earned their way there by being a worthy team. You can't have it both ways and excuse them as being woefully outmatched when they lose. Or claim that a championship is about the team, but then claim Caitlin was going solo most of the way. That's creating an excuse that gets Caitlin off the hook no matter what happens; she'd get all of the credit for winning, but none if they lose with your logic. Being the guy (or in this case, the woman) on your team doesn't work that way. She played poorly...that's the reality. And LeBron wasn't being called the GOAT of basketball before he reached the NBA. Yes, he was the most hyped high school player in history, which means he faced his fare share of skepticism...and rightfully so. But he proved on the court that he was worthy of the hype. Caitlin has a chance to do the same thing as I certainly believe she will improve. But people need to stop crowning her before she actually does something meaningful.
@@JB-tp6uj you don’t think lsu or south Carolina should have beat them both years? South Carolina this year had a bench that had 37 points, Iowa had 0. The Iowa starting 5 had to play the entire game because they don’t have any other choice. South Carolina had more players go to the wnba last year than Caitlin teammates her entire college career. But you don’t think they’re better? You say “you can’t have it both ways and excuse them as being woefully outmatched when they lose. Or claim that a championship is about the team, then claim Caitlin was going solo most of the way.” Uhh, yes I can? They win when she’s contributing to 70+% of the teams points. When did they lose? When she got the Steph curry college treatment. Face guard to deny the ball, and double immediately to force her to give up the ball asap. Why can they do this? Because the other 4 players on the court are nowhere near good enough to keep up. Let me try and explain it in a more simple way, in the nba why don’t teams do that to someone like Luka? Because he can just throw it to Kyrie and your defense would be at a disadvantage. That’s how bad that team was without Caitlin with the ball. They were hopeless. I don’t know who’s calling Caitlin the goat of women’s basketball, but I’ve only heard specifically college. Not basketball in general.
The only thing that makes the WNBA interesting is Caitlin Clark. Might be watching the woman GOAT one day. Her game is entertaining Lonzo was getting the same heat because his pops was hyping him before he even played. I think the treatment goes away after the rookie year.
But you cannot speak for everyone..millions watched a live feed of Reese's game without Caitlin..she was popular in those who follow basketball but she was not a household name until..the victimization of her by the media after the LSU game.
I don't agree that what Taurasi said was envy. She said essentially "She's not going to walk in here and dominate the way she did in college, none of us did, she'll have her struggles adjusting to the higher level of play just like we all did." To paint her as an envious hater for that is completely unjust in my opinion.
Diana Turasi is my WNBA “GOAT” so to say and I believe she was somewhat envious in all honesty, she did have somewhat of a point but the way she put it out there was kinda off putting.
@@YungLanxx There may have been some other comments to which you are referring that I missed. However, the ones that I heard that were being replayed on sports shows didn't sound envious to me at all so I guess we just see that differently.
@@YungLanxx no it was not you just wanna believe that. CC would be lucky to accomplish what DT had done, she got called white mamba by Kobe 5x scoring champ lead league in assist she leads WNBA in Scoring all time she has like 3 gold metals and 3 rings... yeah she hating, make it make sense 😂😂
I was actually a Sacramento Monarchs fan with Yolanda Griffith. Stopped watching after they disbanded. Never watched until CC showed up. Be happy she's around. She's going to give you that $$ you been asking for
That's Clarks style too. She at the top of the looking unathletic list. Her going 2-10 every game for 3 is painful to watch. Her shooting barely 30% is boring. Her turning it over insanely is boring. She's everything you hate about the WNBA.
It is a terrible product, honestly. And NOBODY in the media will say that, or that that's the reason nobody watches. College ball we can kinda accept it. But professional sports should look professional
I hate that it’s LITERALLY come down to that. The man is literally terrified to stand up for his race. Something about that is just wrong when you know every other race would stand up for theirs. Sad….
Angel Reese was 100% more likeable before she entered the WNBA. I actually was super excited to see her but every time she opens her mouth im reminded why i dont watch womans sports.
They all agreed that flagrant 1 was the right call. That's one free throws. That was a dangerous move off the play, and should instantly result in a suspension in the NBA. And a longer suspension in the WNBA. In most other basketball leagues, incidents like these are more frequently handed to the police to handle. The refs set a standard here, and it's that trying to cause injuries to the biggest stars, doesn't have any repercussions. It's the same policy in the NBA.
As a black man and a fan of the game, I'm tired of people trying to put Angel Reese on the same level as Caitlin Clark. Show me one game where over 500,000 viewers tuned in to watch Angel Reese, let alone seven games with those numbers like Caitlin has. Find one college or pro game where over 1,000,000 viewers watched Reese without Caitlin as her opponent. Let's be real-Caitlin is must-see TV, and Reese simply isn't. Just speaking the truth.
No, he didn't. He just made some excuse for a black girl purposely attacking a white girl, the situation had nothing to do with a basketball situation and the foul was purposeful and should cause a suspension.
Reese game is basic.she is good.but clark shooting from the logo and dropping back to back 40 point games.the excitement she brings to the game is like no other.she is the PRIZE
How can you know...its called "welcome to the league"..is what Ive heard for decades in all sports! Yaw must be all new comers & only watched golf.😅😅 really this is ridiculous.
Nobody wants to admit to why all these farmers from the Midwest are following CC. If that taunting wouldn't of happened, she would not have as big of following.
Im literally contemplating buying $250 tickets when the Fever come to town I live in Chicago and not once have I thought about going to a Sky game even when they won the championship a few years ago I didn't think about going THAT is the effect she's having on the W 🤷🏾♂️
Caitlin Clark is selling out arenas for the first time in WNBA history, Reese can't even fill a college gym. There's not really a comparison, Reese is just shrewd and knows she's got to cling to those Clark coattails to remain relevant.
She didn’t have a 41 pt TD vs undefeated SC lol she scored 41 but not a TD.She had 41 and a TD the game before vs Louisville….Stop following the crowd with false info and actually watch the games and those games happened a week before they played LSU. So you not really saying much 😂
Honestly I've never heard of either one of them until Reese taunted Clark with the "you cant see me 👋🏿 gesture last year and it blew up all over social media and the 2 have been linked since. Clark is the better player obviously but keep it 100, Reese did bring some attention and popularity to women's basketball it just wasn't Clark alone
I had the same experience, but Clark was getting significantly more viewers than Reese before that as well. Honestly think the racial dynamic in and of itself played a large role in her blowing up. (Obviously along with her talent and style of play) Not that she did because she was white, but the Reese and Clark stuff specifically seemed oddly big, and I think part of that was racial reasons.
And there were MILLIONS of people who watched Reese's game on social who never watched a WNBA game..its crazy how people think everyone likes players they like and watch who they watch.
Nick is such a hypocrite…..if this had happened to Reese we all know what his take on this would be….stop with the wool over our eyes Nick it’s insulting.
Ive watched one wnba game from start to finish, it was because Clark was playing. Cant speak for others, but I saw WNBA games in the background of bars and never paid attention again.
If C.C. continues to turn over the ball and lose. All this hype will be over. She didn't win a National Championship in College. She hasn't won anything in the WNBA. The disrespect for these other women is wild. Candace Parker, Mya Moore. Sheryl Swoops. T.Tar. Samone Augustus and other's
I work in a sports bar that is completly driven by what's on TV. I have never put a WNBA game on in my 28 years. I have had every fever game on since she came in.
The "that would've been an assault if it were out on the street" argument is insane... turn on one game of hockey and every game you'll see people getting five-minute penalties for stuff that they get 5 years in jail for if it happened out on the street. When you play sports you enter a situational agreement that this type of roughness can happen, the player's mere presence is an understanding and undertaking of the risks of violence in the sport. If you think what happened to Clark is anything more then a dirty shot, then please go watch Scott Stevens hit on Paul Kariya and come back to me after.
Idk why you wrote all that when that would have been an assault anywhere else. Hockey is much different than basketball. Regardless, CC needs her team to stick up for her. Dirty players aren't going to disappear.
He’s talking about on-court, but the jealousy is apparent when you have players who refuse to talk about CC at a press conference but get twitter fingers when they get home. When players are saying “hey I’m also the reason why attendance is up,” although it’s clear who’s primarily responsible… that’s jealousy, resentment, envy… whatever word you want to use.
No, it's not. This would be a topic of conversation in any sport (A popular rookie being hazed would be talked about), and the idea she was just competing really hard by blindsiding CC is absurd. Wildes' seemed to just make it about gender when the entire conversation is completely normal, would be had about men's sports too. Also, pretending there is no jealousy for a player who is getting all the attention is a bit juvenile. Wildes and you both know there is jealousy.
YO! SOUTH CAROLINA WON THE CHAMPIONSHIP WITH AN UNDEFEATED SEASON, AND THEY SPOKE MORE ABOUT CAITLIN??? THESE WOMAN ARENT ROLLING OUT A RED CARPET FOR A ROOK!!!! CAITLIN IS A TRASH TALKER. SOME AINT HAVING IT.
I actually agree with Angel Reese on that the rivalry between the 2 brought eyeballs to the league. Because it was people that paid attention to the WNBA that knew Caitlin was good and was coming, but how many people was that, ordinary people tuned in because there was beef between Caitlin and Angel Reese, including myself. The closest I ever came to ever seemingly watching the WNBA was watching the movie Love and Basketball. But I say the controversy, watch a few clips then started paying a little bit of attention. If not for that, I wouldn’t have tbh , not matter how good Caitlin is, so she is right. She specifically talked about new people watching the game, and she is right about how many started in the past 12 months, because people love conflict and will tune in to watch it. They both contributed, of course Caitlin put up better numbers, and is more talented, but again how many people would care if it was just her playing, not nearly as many as do and have in the past 18 months or so, and even with this new thing, more people will start watching because of the ‘beef’.
Bro I m an adult male based in France. Football is my bread and butter. I m watching the wnba cod of Caitlin Clark. Reese's intensity on the boards is nice but Caitlin has our whole country tuning in
Thank you breaking that down with truth. It’s just how it goes in sports. People become drawn by coverage and controversy. Plain and simple that’s how new fans are gained. I came for Angel but I’ve become a fan of many others that are really good and fiery personalities. You also can’t deny there is a racial component as well.

Does anyone know the name of the woman that threw Reese to the ground and got ejected
Also, you see Clark hit Carter in the face prior?
She may have done it unintentionally... She isn't a skilled defender or rebounder... no one really mentions that... Was Carter wrong... yes... was Clark wrong... yes... flagrant foul by Carter.... move on... 3 wins by the Fever? Sun undefeated.... they have other concerns this season lol
The only time any of these shows mentioned the WNBA before Catlin Clark in the past 10+ years was the Britney Grinder prisoner exchange situation (which had nothing to do with the actual basketball.) now they are talking about things that happen in WNBA games.
Sabrina with the Steph Curry 3 point contest but Sabrina before that was struggling getting the coverage she did in college.
Exactly, This is due to Caitlin Clark 100% people need to just back up and appreciate. No one really cares about Reese, other than for some reality show drama bit if you are tuning in for the game, the skills, and good person, than Caitlin is the draw
If they're not careful they're gonna have to go back to flying on Southwest.
BINGO!!!!
Facts!!!!
There was a stat where the attendance of CC games is like 17k on average. Without CC is like 7k...and those include games with Angel Reese.
You’re definitely correct lol
You're right! Numbers show....
Fax
Show me the ratings for caitlyn games and everyone else, conversation over
The FEVER double that of the SKY in home attendance numbers and tv ratings prove it too
Angel Reese said the WNBA isn’t popular because of one player, it’s also because of her. So, two players basically? She doesn’t care that one player is the biggest star, she’s mad that’s not her.
Angel Reeses celebrity comes from being a dramatic social media influencer not a basketball player. Almost all the attention she got had little to nothing to do with on court performance.
Listen to the whole statement. She said there are other players as well. Then she added her self included. Selective reading or hearing you have. Just like the media being selective on what hit that hard foul from Carter. She elbowed her in the face & then started jawing her mouth. (Foul was inappropriate, but she’s no saint) Didn’t see her jawing on her whooping 3 point game against the Liberty.
loool
She said that when she's done with basketball, she wants to look back at her career and the impact on growing the WNBA won't just be because of one person, it'll be because of her too
AR is a below average player that gives off vibes that she would resort to OF if this hoops thing didn’t pan out
CC is recognized for her game on the court
AR is noted for off court reasons
Could you imagine if Caitlin checked Cennedy for no reason? Holy $hit
All white people would say it's just part of the sport. She was attacked first, etc... You act like there isn't a precedent for how this would go lol
She would have been kicked out the league and labeled as a white supremacist
@@kashifsingh791 uh, no they wouldn’t. Do me a favor. Google most dirty nba players. Guarantee you #1 is bill laimbeer aka a white guy who cheap shotted tons of people. Nobody was defending him, he was a scumbag. Deal with it, take accountability, and just admit the girls a scumbag too.
I just fine that funny reminder that push from jokic to Morris most of us thought Morris deserved it so what you trying to get at?
uh yeah, i can imagine that, because people wouldn’t care enough for it to ever be talked about by shows like this.
This reminds of when Iguodala tried to shout out that one WNBA player and she took it as disrespect cause he didn’t know her name…Seems the WNBA always has a way of turning positive publicity into something negative and I fear it’s going to happen again and drive the new base away.
One player ain't the league - puleese!!!
@@hikidunm1582literally last year more people watched Clark in college than have watched the top players games in the wnba
Exactly, if Caitlyn succeeds the League succeeds, and vice versa..
The "new base"? No there are WNBA fans and Caitlyn Clark fans. You "new" people are late to the party. Y'all missed Diana Tarausi, Sue Bird, Candace Parker, Tameka Catchings, Maya Moore......just late.
All the thing that make her great she has yet to do in the wnba lol that the problem
Wait... we are defending Chennedy Carter? 😂😂😂 Angel Reese cheering that hit like they are in Game 7 of the finals. That ain't normal high intensity basketball...
True, there's clearly more to it than basic competition.
It is tho look

@@57harrierstrikes Oh there's definitely more. She later went on Twitter, liking posts, and said all she does is shoot. She brings nothing else to the table.
I don’t hate the quote on its own, it’s the celebration angel did when her teammate did a non basketball play to the girl she’s clearly envious of that speaks volumes
Why is it jealousy and envy? Everytime Caitlin is brought up the women in the league are jealous. Of what? These ladies are living their lives on and off the court. It was physical game before Caitlin, and it's continued to be that with her in the league.
@@mikefloes celebrating a cheap shot means you’re wishing bad on someone. Not hard to get
They left out the part of the quote where Angel Reese said the WNBA is popular not just because of Caitlyn Clark but because of her and Caitlyn Clark. So she’s cool with disrespecting literally every other player as long as she’s not included. She doesn’t care that Clark is popular she cares that Clark is more popular than she is. She thinks she’s entitled to be the WNBA’s Steph Curry but her problem is she’s got the game of Draymond Green.
It’s insane to me that people are not viewing this quote in the context of that moment.
Like, ok, she jumped to her feet and started cheering when her teammate threw a cheap shot at Clark. Then gives a ‘she’s not the only special one, we have lots of other special people. Like me, I’m special.’
And we’re not supposed to interpret that as envy? Reese has pretty clearly always disliked the amount of buzz Clark gets, and this is just another incident of her trying to hijack some of it.
@@lsvids595 lord y’all are soft af. How about Angel was encouraging her teammate after cc elbowed her in the head, then trash talked her down the court and the Carter promptly hit a jumper in her face and paid her back. I’ve seen hockey players body check a player and we don’t bat an eye. But since it’s cc yall want to cry. I guarantee you didn’t care when Angel got choke slammed.
It’s Caitlin who’s the reason for the turn in attention the league is getting. Cause she’s actually a good basketball player. Oh, and it’s absolutely racial. The media and other players have gone on and on about how “white privilege” plays a role in this. So yeah it’s racial.
I have not watched this women play a minute of basketball. I probably wont. If she was Japanese would not the Japanese want to all come out and watch her. So would all the other ethnicities minus the blacks want to pull for this Japanese. Blacks seem not to pull for anybody but their own and I respect that. I watch and pull for only 2 teams . Denver and Dallas. Guess Why? I pulled for Houston when YAO was there. Pau with the Lakers.
We are tribal or pull for the underdog. It is OK. It is not racist. So yes this skinny homely looking white girl is getting a lot of non blacks to tune in and watch her play.
Angel Reese made it a rival because of her obsession with getting attention. Caitlin Clark just wants to play, compete, and win. Caitlin Clark is not looking for rivals and fights. That’s what makes her so special because she keeps her composure and is very classy. Caitlin Clark is a very well outspoken, educated female .
I've watched 5 WNBA games in my life... all of them had Caitlyn playing in them.
I feel sorry for you having to watch her. It's very painful to watch. Miss 70% of her shoots. Turn the ball over at insane rates. Her led in turns over everyone else in the league in huge. She is leading by a mile almost over two a game over second place. If that's the reason you watch why? She actually makes her team worse when she is on the floor.

Being suspended from multiple games by her coach this year!
I only got interested in the WNBA, because of Caitlyn Clark. I only got interested in the NBA, because of Michael Jordan. I started tuning in to watch them, and found other players to root for, too. Dennis Rodman...my favorite NBA player. Right now, Clark's my favorite WNBA player.
Note: Since some are claiming Clark's only reason for breaking the all-time college scoring record was because she took more shots than anyone else, let's compare her to Maravich (per ESPN)!
Maravich: 83 games. 38.1 shots/game. 44.2 pts/game. Total shots: 3,162
Clark: 129 games. 19.9 shots/game. 28.3 pts/game. Total shots: 2,567
She broke Maravich's record taking less shots, despite playing more games. If she HAD taken as many shots/game at her rate, she'd have been in the 56 pts/game region!
So, give her her due, she's a very efficient scorer! Now, let's reduce the turnovers🤭
Thank you Wildes for being fair❤

And this game was IN Chicago and ON "Barbie Night" or as I like to call it, "Barbi-Q Night" because not only did Caitlin cook Angel, she roasted her! 😂
Then, to add insult to injury, not only did she twist the knife of defeat after inserting it, she went on to hype up the crowd in Reese's hometown and while Reese ran off the court after the final buzzer, Caitlin stayed behind to sign autographs on Barbie shirts meant for Reese AND literally got a standing ovation from the crowd!
Uh dear. It’s not about you. It’s about CC.
Angel’s jealousy more obvious than the herpie on her lip
Nah yall just been hating her ever since LSU won 😂 hating that yall lil white princess got smoked for a chip
Can you guys imagine if Reese never hit Clark with that "You can't see me"? Are we even talking about her? It's in Reese's best interest to keep the beef alive as long as possible since the only player any casual fan really follows in the WNBA is Caitlin Clark.
How you realized that CC became relevant in that moment was a nice take😉, but instead you inserted CC's name where it should be Angel that made CC a household name. How many Iowa games y'all watched before that moment? I mean, she played a whole season before that incident, yet I & most had never heard of CC until people got in their feelings.🤔

Its a money laundering deal....
Reese clapping clearly shows that it’s not just typical basketball. They like going after Clark. Right or wrong that’s the facts.
Love the take Wildz, thank you for keeping it real…I love when you seem angry and committed to yur takes
The drama plays a part in why women’s basketball is getting noticed because that’s the main talking point. Sports is a reality tv show and women beefing is a ratings draw.
That’s exactly what I said, people live beef, and men love to watch women fighting and that’s just facts. So angel and Caitlin going at it was kinda interesting, mix really other of their talents in there and then the racial component and didn’t ding you have a dollar signs flying everywhere.
That’s how women have always thrived smh
Men love a good ole fashion Cat fight
All this “drama” is like scripted to get people to watch
Men don't like women fighting unless its the UFC. We will be more interested in the sport and competition. Women are finally tuning in to watch because of the drama and cat fight of it. They know sport entirely is still boring watch. Lol
It’s jealousy when a player forgets she has an additional free throw because she’s too busy running over to put a body on Clark
the only way race comes into the discussion is the reason why she is so hated and discrepsted in combination with jealousy
No, it works both ways as race is also among the reasons Clark is elevated when she hasn't won anything meaningful. When has a losing team been invited to the White House? When has a player been called the GOAT when she's never won a championship on any level? When have ratings and having a logo 3 equated to you being better than players who have achieved more professionally? Yes, you are correct that race plays a role in the attitude many players have against her, but that same element along with her sexuality and midwestern roots has also become a proxy for why there's been an influx of largely white fans who are now rooting her on.
@@JB-tp6uj You do realize how crazy you sound right? First of all, why are you being negative about the influx of fans? Even if they're white, you say it like that's a bad thing? Should we have been like "Oh great, there's been a huge spike in black viewership ever since this tiger woods guy showed up"? No, because that would be idiotic.
Now let me tackle this whole attitude you have towards people thinking she's a big deal. Are you really confused on why people think she's a great talent? It's college, you get max 4 years to get a ring, she went to a far lesser basketball school who gets nowhere near the top level recruits, was contributing to like 70% of the teams points, set a bunch of individual records, dragged the team to the finals twice, and got beat by far better teams. And you act like that's some horrible thing. If you were around in 2007, would you be talking like "Why are people so hyped about this lebron guy? He lost to the spurs in the finals." yeah, he dragged that cavs team and got smacked by the spurs who had the far better team. A championship is a TEAM award, it doesn't matter how good one player is, they can't solo win the entire thing.
@@limitedbom2206 Yeah, um...you read way too much into that. Stating that the influx of fans are white is not a negative thing. It's simply a statement of reality and many of them are identifying with her because of her skin color in the same way that many are hating on her because of skin color. That was the point...that the racial element is not one-sided.
At no point did I say her accolades were to be dismissed. But those accolades don't include a championship, which her team was good enough to win. Stop with this narrative that the other team was far and away better than them. You seem to conveniently leave out that Iowa beat an undefeated South Carolina team the year before to reach the championship game. So they were more than capable to beat LSU or South Carolina again. Caitlin and Iowa had a chance to win either game, but they didn't play well...and she didn't play well as an individual. That wasn't a case of being overmatched....Caitlin and Iowa earned their way there by being a worthy team. You can't have it both ways and excuse them as being woefully outmatched when they lose. Or claim that a championship is about the team, but then claim Caitlin was going solo most of the way. That's creating an excuse that gets Caitlin off the hook no matter what happens; she'd get all of the credit for winning, but none if they lose with your logic. Being the guy (or in this case, the woman) on your team doesn't work that way. She played poorly...that's the reality.
And LeBron wasn't being called the GOAT of basketball before he reached the NBA. Yes, he was the most hyped high school player in history, which means he faced his fare share of skepticism...and rightfully so. But he proved on the court that he was worthy of the hype. Caitlin has a chance to do the same thing as I certainly believe she will improve. But people need to stop crowning her before she actually does something meaningful.
@@JB-tp6uj you don’t think lsu or south Carolina should have beat them both years? South Carolina this year had a bench that had 37 points, Iowa had 0. The Iowa starting 5 had to play the entire game because they don’t have any other choice. South Carolina had more players go to the wnba last year than Caitlin teammates her entire college career. But you don’t think they’re better? You say “you can’t have it both ways and excuse them as being woefully outmatched when they lose. Or claim that a championship is about the team, then claim Caitlin was going solo most of the way.” Uhh, yes I can? They win when she’s contributing to 70+% of the teams points. When did they lose? When she got the Steph curry college treatment. Face guard to deny the ball, and double immediately to force her to give up the ball asap. Why can they do this? Because the other 4 players on the court are nowhere near good enough to keep up. Let me try and explain it in a more simple way, in the nba why don’t teams do that to someone like Luka? Because he can just throw it to Kyrie and your defense would be at a disadvantage. That’s how bad that team was without Caitlin with the ball. They were hopeless.
I don’t know who’s calling Caitlin the goat of women’s basketball, but I’ve only heard specifically college. Not basketball in general.
Facts are we watch to see Angel Too, thats just facts !
Her shoe deal drove them over the edge.
The only thing that makes the WNBA interesting is Caitlin Clark. Might be watching the woman GOAT one day. Her game is entertaining
Lonzo was getting the same heat because his pops was hyping him before he even played. I think the treatment goes away after the rookie year.
Cap, I'm watching for the Aces 3peat
But you cannot speak for everyone..millions watched a live feed of Reese's game without Caitlin..she was popular in those who follow basketball but she was not a household name until..the victimization of her by the media after the LSU game.
Viewership went from 300,000 to 2.1 million that’s a 700% increase. For every 6 Clark fans there is a non Clark fan basicaly.
I get it...all I'm saying the only reason I watch is Clark. Her game is sick.
@@TaiyouArt not all viewership is fandom
Imagine if Catlin Clark was a black lesbian but played the same way. The story would be how she's a victim.
no, there wouldn’t be a story at all because people wouldn’t care enough about her for the media to even cover
I don't agree that what Taurasi said was envy. She said essentially "She's not going to walk in here and dominate the way she did in college, none of us did, she'll have her struggles adjusting to the higher level of play just like we all did." To paint her as an envious hater for that is completely unjust in my opinion.

To be perfectly honest, I didn’t know who Angel Reese was until she started trolling CC on the court.

Haters are gonna hate... Catyland… don’t worry about it just move forward you’re not a star you are a superstar. let’s go girl
Wnba is unathletic, boring, emotional rollercoaster of just terrible basketball.
Clark actually had me tuned in for a few games
That's Clarks style too. She at the top of the looking unathletic list. Her going 2-10 every game for 3 is painful to watch. Her shooting barely 30% is boring. Her turning it over insanely is boring. She's everything you hate about the WNBA.
It is a terrible product, honestly. And NOBODY in the media will say that, or that that's the reason nobody watches. College ball we can kinda accept it. But professional sports should look professional

Angel Reese was 100% more likeable before she entered the WNBA. I actually was super excited to see her but every time she opens her mouth im reminded why i dont watch womans sports.
Quoting Jemele Hill and then me listening lowered my IQ
This was the most level headed discussion about the incident I’ve seen over all platforms.
They all agreed that flagrant 1 was the right call. That's one free throws. That was a dangerous move off the play, and should instantly result in a suspension in the NBA. And a longer suspension in the WNBA. In most other basketball leagues, incidents like these are more frequently handed to the police to handle.
The refs set a standard here, and it's that trying to cause injuries to the biggest stars, doesn't have any repercussions. It's the same policy in the NBA.
As a black man and a fan of the game, I'm tired of people trying to put Angel Reese on the same level as Caitlin Clark. Show me one game where over 500,000 viewers tuned in to watch Angel Reese, let alone seven games with those numbers like Caitlin has. Find one college or pro game where over 1,000,000 viewers watched Reese without Caitlin as her opponent. Let's be real-Caitlin is must-see TV, and Reese simply isn't. Just speaking the truth.
They are targeting her (CC). Let's face it
It's simple. Angel Reese is Jealous and a spoiled child.
Her popularity stems from her setting records in college and the intrigue of watching someone projected to be great
Jealousy is absolutely a HUGE part of what's going on in the WNBA.
WILDES SPOKE THE TRUTH
No, he didn't. He just made some excuse for a black girl purposely attacking a white girl, the situation had nothing to do with a basketball situation and the foul was purposeful and should cause a suspension.

Right?! She’s bringing so many new viewers it’s crazy! I’d go to just watch her if she came to my town 😂
Caitlin Clark is selling out arenas for the first time in WNBA history, Reese can't even fill a college gym. There's not really a comparison, Reese is just shrewd and knows she's got to cling to those Clark coattails to remain relevant.
Kevin Wildes …. I’m impressed. That “also, maybe not. Just maybe not”, good on you sir 👏🏾👏🏾
The haters might not this but Caitlin rivalry with Angel is actually good for both of them and the WNBA
Nobody talks about the game or the score. They only talk about one person.
That's all the proof you need. A lot of jealousy involved
Never watched WNBA unless it's a compilation of fail clips. Clark is the reason i am watching Welfare National Basketball Association.

People saying “we didn’t talk about Caitlin till Reese” so Caitlin’s 41 point triple double vs undefeated South Carolina lol
They are liars. They tuned in to see Caitlin lose. They didn't care who beat her.
She didn’t have a 41 pt TD vs undefeated SC lol she scored 41 but not a TD.She had 41 and a TD the game before vs Louisville….Stop following the crowd with false info and actually watch the games and those games happened a week before they played LSU. So you not really saying much 😂
Anyone who says that is a racist.. plain and simple.
And you prove nothing. She still had a lot of points back to back. And defeated an undefeated SC
Angel who? No one will remember her. Caitlin will be remembered for years.
This is the best coverage of this situation that i have seen, i can always trust these guys 🤝🏾
Honestly I've never heard of either one of them until Reese taunted Clark with the "you cant see me 👋🏿 gesture last year and it blew up all over social media and the 2 have been linked since. Clark is the better player obviously but keep it 100, Reese did bring some attention and popularity to women's basketball it just wasn't Clark alone
You missed the boat then
I had the same experience, but Clark was getting significantly more viewers than Reese before that as well.
Honestly think the racial dynamic in and of itself played a large role in her blowing up. (Obviously along with her talent and style of play)
Not that she did because she was white, but the Reese and Clark stuff specifically seemed oddly big, and I think part of that was racial reasons.

Nick is such a hypocrite…..if this had happened to Reese we all know what his take on this would be….stop with the wool over our eyes Nick it’s insulting.
Nick is the sports media equivalent of Bill Maher; and he is no more progressive than Ronald Regan
@125efa you know his wife and son are black, right?
@@125efalol. Watch his podcast.
@@wayneerichsenTbf that doesn’t necessarily make him progressive.
@@125efa completely incorrect, you’ve probably missed a few things for you to say something so blatantly untrue lol
Ive watched one wnba game from start to finish, it was because Clark was playing. Cant speak for others, but I saw WNBA games in the background of bars and never paid attention again.
Congratulations
If C.C. continues to turn over the ball and lose. All this hype will be over. She didn't win a National Championship in College. She hasn't won anything in the WNBA. The disrespect for these other women is wild. Candace Parker, Mya Moore. Sheryl Swoops. T.Tar. Samone Augustus and other's
I work in a sports bar that is completly driven by what's on TV. I have never put a WNBA game on in my 28 years. I have had every fever game on since she came in.
Angel’s Reese’s one shoe block went viral before Caitlin
Yeah there was also a video of when she made ONE 3 point shot last year😅
Clark’s highlight reel vs angels is like a sling shot vs an atomic bomb
The "that would've been an assault if it were out on the street" argument is insane... turn on one game of hockey and every game you'll see people getting five-minute penalties for stuff that they get 5 years in jail for if it happened out on the street. When you play sports you enter a situational agreement that this type of roughness can happen, the player's mere presence is an understanding and undertaking of the risks of violence in the sport. If you think what happened to Clark is anything more then a dirty shot, then please go watch Scott Stevens hit on Paul Kariya and come back to me after.
Adam Johnson.
Idk why you wrote all that when that would have been an assault anywhere else.
Hockey is much different than basketball.
Regardless, CC needs her team to stick up for her. Dirty players aren't going to disappear.
Wildes's point was kinda true
Nah Clark got 28m from Nike without a pro game under her belt. Mfs are jealous
He’s talking about on-court, but the jealousy is apparent when you have players who refuse to talk about CC at a press conference but get twitter fingers when they get home. When players are saying “hey I’m also the reason why attendance is up,” although it’s clear who’s primarily responsible… that’s jealousy, resentment, envy… whatever word you want to use.
@@TheKhal22 Nike is a shoe and clothing apparel company. They're not a basketball company. How do you not know this?
No, it's not.
This would be a topic of conversation in any sport (A popular rookie being hazed would be talked about), and the idea she was just competing really hard by blindsiding CC is absurd.
Wildes' seemed to just make it about gender when the entire conversation is completely normal, would be had about men's sports too.
Also, pretending there is no jealousy for a player who is getting all the attention is a bit juvenile. Wildes and you both know there is jealousy.
Sorry as an Iowan I watch it for Clark she’s fun too watch.
YO! SOUTH CAROLINA WON THE CHAMPIONSHIP WITH AN UNDEFEATED SEASON, AND THEY SPOKE MORE ABOUT CAITLIN??? THESE WOMAN ARENT ROLLING OUT A RED CARPET FOR A ROOK!!!! CAITLIN IS A TRASH TALKER. SOME AINT HAVING IT.
Thanks a real take at last.
I actually agree with Angel Reese on that the rivalry between the 2 brought eyeballs to the league. Because it was people that paid attention to the WNBA that knew Caitlin was good and was coming, but how many people was that, ordinary people tuned in because there was beef between Caitlin and Angel Reese, including myself. The closest I ever came to ever seemingly watching the WNBA was watching the movie Love and Basketball. But I say the controversy, watch a few clips then started paying a little bit of attention. If not for that, I wouldn’t have tbh , not matter how good Caitlin is, so she is right. She specifically talked about new people watching the game, and she is right about how many started in the past 12 months, because people love conflict and will tune in to watch it. They both contributed, of course Caitlin put up better numbers, and is more talented, but again how many people would care if it was just her playing, not nearly as many as do and have in the past 18 months or so, and even with this new thing, more people will start watching because of the ‘beef’.
Thank you💯
Bro I m an adult male based in France. Football is my bread and butter. I m watching the wnba cod of Caitlin Clark. Reese's intensity on the boards is nice but Caitlin has our whole country tuning in
@@fackery8438like she said bcuz of the controversy. Anybody deny that is just untruthful.
Thank you breaking that down with truth. It’s just how it goes in sports. People become drawn by coverage and controversy. Plain and simple that’s how new fans are gained. I came for Angel but I’ve become a fan of many others that are really good and fiery personalities. You also can’t deny there is a racial component as well.
@@Alicia_92 I first watched her when she beat beat the undefeated Aliyah Boston and USC in the semis
