no but shows how dumb that one voter is lol
Racist voter
60 + votes speaks volumes about Clark.
1 vote speaks volumes about the one that cast it
Perfectly stated.
Kuddos to that one person whoever it is!!!!! Respect other people's opinions. It's that simple!!!! Nothing is going to change the vote. Move on!!! Its just a participation trophy that many have won in the past and will win several times in the future. Heck, even Clarks teammate Boston won the award although it was a unanimous decision.
CC’s primary contribution has been to expose the WNBA for all its dysfunction. This vote perfectly illustrates this and massively contributes to that revelatory function. It’s perfect. And if this continues, mainly if the Fever hire a new, actual coach and the Fever stop playing W-ball and start playing basketball, then the revolution continues. 😊
@@denisebailey3226 How would you like it, if someone killed a black person, but one jury decides not guilty? Kudos to that person whoever it is. Respect other people's opinions.
@@inertial6 that juror has every right to feel how they feel. It happens all the time with hung juries. People need to stand in their conviction/truths no matter what it is. If I feel strongly about something and I don't care who you are I'm going to stand by it!!! PERIOD!!!! Again, give a gold medal to that person who stood their grounds.
It matters because it shows this isn't based on MERIT and ACCOMPLISHMENT. It's a political/social issue. There is NO feasible argument to justify that Angel would be the ROTY by any metrics!
It says the WNBA has major issues that most people can't stand. Hence they stay away.
I had never watched a WNBA game until this year. I watch tons of Womens NCAA basketball for over 4 decades and there is no drama. The drama, the pettiness, the unsportsmanship and abuse towards Caitlin Clark in the W was exhausting. The NBA dudes were praising Victor all season, great to see. Lebron was tested but no one doubted his greatness (did you hear that Swoops). I gave the W a shot this season. But Ill stick to college womens BB from here on out.
After you have a few drinks, you are going to forget this comment.
Your opinion. There are thousands of others who think differently and they have the right to do so. PERIOD!!! The wanting to control other people is just plain crazy. Someone decides to vote their heart instead of the with the good old boy establishment should get a gold medal. Not vilified.
CC earned it but to say Reese wouldn't have is the dumbest shit I've ever read. Get your fake wnba Fandom outta here
I T W A S O N E PERSON
Give it a rest already. Whining is a bad look for anyone.
Dan, you are wrong. That person was voting out of spite and DISRESPECTED THE HONOR OF VOTING that they were given.
They voted how they felt whether you like or not doesn't matter. PERIOD!!!!
Caitlin had way better stats and impact on her team. Caitlin's team improved and went to the playoffs. Reese couldn't even finish her stat padding season.
Secretariat won by 31 lengths and was pulling away and everyone knew legend when they witnessed it. Fans know a legend when they see one.
Great comparison!!!🌺🌺🌺
Well said
Stop avoiding the OBVIOUS,Mr. Patrick !
Of course he is. Absolute cowards in this world. Time for people to stand up.
The obvious was mela_nin
If the voter stays silent, it probably means race was a factor. Just saying...
This reminds me of when Fred Hickman stole the unanimous MVP from Shaq when he was the only person not to choose Shaq and gave it to AI instead
Haha yeah. Nash was and is an all time great, but you can't deny the guy who had an entire defense named after him (Hack a Shaq) because that was the only way to stop him at his peak.
It matters because WHY it happened
Doesn't matter one bit...
But let's keep it real here Dan. The vote for Angel Reese was nothing more than a "protest" vote. She was so fragile that she couldn't barely last half a season and Caitlin played with a ruptured ear drum and damn near lost her eye.
Reese hater!!!!! lol Someone bucked the good old boys' network and voted their heart!!!!! Whoever it was deserves a gold medal.

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!
@@GreatlinClarkFan-c5h Clark is reached her peak. NO DEFENSE. Not a player who could play both side of the court. When the new players come up in the next draft she will be drowned out. Reese is just beginning. The next A'ja Wilson. Plays offense and defense and as soon as Reese is confident with her shooting, like DWade said, nobody is going to be able to handle her.
Jesus, Dan. If you don’t get it, you don’t get it. Are you going to have Geno back on to defend his “predictions” about Caitlin Clark?
We knew it wasnt going to unanimous when Angel got a MVP vote
Does not matter and doesn't surprise me. Sick Commissioner and Players Union.
Shaq is still pissed off from the 2000 MVP vote.
It doesn’t matter, but it’s sad if it was because of race, which it probably was.
It's hard to publicly own a vote when you voted out of spite and ignorance.
Yep...Swoopes!
The problem is A'ja shouldn't have been unanimous, there was a legit argument for other players being more valuable to their team but Clark was head and shoulders above all other rookies and this single vote against is just shear pettiness on the part of whoever cast a vote for Reese.
Very good point.
Clark should not have even been mentioned as a MVP but you didn't complain about that. Move on!!!!
The person who voted for Reese will make their self known. This is their moment in the sun and will not let it go.
The lone voter will make themselves known for race victimhood fanatics and DEI knumb skulls, all for virtue signaling kudos.
Pure speculation on my part.
I'm not concerned of the one vote, BUT I'm very upset about the way it was delivered and not celebrated by the WNBA. Engelbutt called Cait in a practice gym in Connecticut. She needs to be fired, in addition to the WNBA imploding with disgruntled players trying to take the league down based on racism...imagine that! I give her D- for the way she's not handling the league's ongoing issues. The owners should have her fired. Can't imagine her running 3 more added team by 2026.
That was lame of her.
Yes, it matters if no other comes close both in stats and performance. Feelings and preferences should not have a ballot in sports. Much ❤
Caitlin Clark is 440 Magnum, Angel Reese is slant six..I guess it's a vote to save money on gas//
Clark is done and has reached her peak. NO DEFENSE! Reese is going to be the second coming of A'ja Wilson. The future belongs to Reese, and everybody knows it!!!!
@@denisebailey3226 Let me guess, you have a barbie towel signed by Clark..admit it, lol//
@@nikeyrawhide2873 don't have one and don't want one. lol
Dan, It is your right to say that it doesn't matter, and maybe you don't care, but DO NOT say that it "probably" doesn't matter to CC. That is stupid.
It will never matter to Caitlin publicly… she’s got too much class for that.
Angel Reece got her participation trophy...
Reese has a championship trophy. Rookie of the Year is a participation trophy. Remember, Clark's teammate Boston got it last year but she at least got it with a unanimously vote. lol
1 vote for AR?!? What an idiot! Somebody has some explaining to do! 62 records is all you need to know the reality of the situation.
It was just very very small of that person.
If you think about it, it actually makes Reese look even worse for only getting ONE vote. That’s the best negative publicity you could ever give anyone!
Angel Reece is garbage gets double doubles off her own misses lol what injured and out for like 6 games played on a dumpster fire thug team that fired the coach
Tune into Reese podcast on Thursday at 5:00 p.m. 50,000 subscribers already! DWade was on yesterday it was great.
It matters because she was clearly the winner, and the integrity of the voter is at question. It wasn't even close, that's the problem
I have waited for this. Patrick is the 1st legimate reporter to ask this question. The fact that they are coming out and saying "Not Me!"shows others are having to say it wasn't them shows disrespect from the person who did but want to hide it!
It’s not like Clark’s trophy going to be smaller 🤣🤣
It’s really no big deal, I’m stunned at the outrage
Reese was the worst shooter in the WNBA from within 5 feet of the basket. She can't dribble at all, has no passing skills and makes nobody around her better.
Over the last 15 games , Clark clearly pulled away ahead of reese and it should have been unanimous. It’s probably the same person who gave Reese an mvp vote as well
It just shows how toxic and unprofessional this league is to its core from Coaches, referees, Gm´s, players and media. I hope it changes in the next years when big money comes in and thos dei people get fired.
They been advocating for so long you would think they would at least look presentable and professional when asking for a raise or promotion.
I hate to say it but I reckon either jealousy, or racism,played a part in their choice of the ROY
what if Catlin decided to play overseas for MILLIONS.....what will happen to the WNBA?
"Aja (the person not the song) deserved to be most valueable player. But Caitlin was the most valueable". Make it make sense
Maybe Christine Brennan should ask Angel Reese who she thinks should've won ROTY if she hasn't already.
Agreed, I'm so tired of this demand for "unanimous".
The A'ja vote was suspicious because there's no way every voter really thought she was MVP. Most probably, but not every.
Why wouldn't they. It was very clear. The only person who even came close was Collier. Collier has a chance to get it next year if she keeps playing like she is now.
Clark was the runaway ROY.
A voting for Angel Reese is definitely a protest vote.
It most likely doesn’t matter to her.
Now go get a ring.
It was never a race and there was never a doubt. She's on a different level.
CC has the world. Reese getting one vote wont ruin CC's day. Besides, we all knew who was going to win it.
The dissenting vote can’t be justified (out loud) but clearly their mission was to deny CC a unanimous vote. Therefore, it appears that the vote was given based upon other factors. Truth!
Hamas has taken responsibility for the Angel Reese vote.
How many records have other ROTY broken?
*****😅😅😅 She wasn't unanimous, and yall made a VIDEO about it. 😅
Hell I don't care about that trophy she should have got MVP the league and you say oh no you can kiss my ass too Patrick
Had CC at 3rd for MVP. To be honest I am more surprised that more people didn't vote for AR with all the old guard hating CC so much.
Does it matter? No. That one voter better hope it doesn’t come out that they were the Reese voter though.
Stand up and be counted if you do something stand by it like they said does it really matter 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
Reese has a championship trophy. Rookie of the Year is a participation trophy. Remember, Clark's teammate Boston got it last year, but she at least got it with an unanimously vote. lol
No, Shaq was in the same situation; there's always 1 hater who wants to be the unicorn.
Will there be a presentation of the award? Or, will UPS deliver her cardboard cutout award?
the media, and the league has always made it a big deal. that one vote was spite. period. they created a ladder for mvp, so unanimous could be achieved
That voter should come out and tell us how proud they are of voting for Angel " the bricklayer" Reese over Caitlin " the savior of the league" Clark .
It's only one vote, but just something thing to think about; Like in the movie A Time to Kill, Mathew McConaughey said in his closing argument, "...now image if she was white?" I will say the same thing what if Catlin Clark was black? I bet it would be unanimous.
Was probably the same clown (not my 1st c-word choice) that gave Reese a vote in the MVP rankings.
The case for a unanimous Clark vote was IMO much stronger than for Wilson.
it's a political vote, since Reese wasn't even second best rookie..
Not really. I would applaud the WNBA for allowing an obviously
sightless person to vote. It is important to their self esteem, gives them purpose.
Angel Reese received a pity vote. Shame on the person who did that to her. Now Reese has that pity vote on her record. Guys get real. Does CC care, no. In 10 years people will say remember when Reese received the pity vote. Really sad a person would do that to Reese
Bird didn't either, Magic got a couple of votes.
Oh it matters Sir; it matters a lot. Just not the way you think.
1st of all, transparency is a thing. YOU would own up to your vote because your integrity forces you to do right and justify your vote, should you have one. What do they care if they don't have to justify their vote? While it's not the end of the world as you say, it IS the another frayed thread in the W image.
2nd, The integrity of the award has been befouled by the one vote. The award went from meritorious to "who you know, not what you know".
As far as what it means for me, it has little to no bearing, as my fandom is not affected by the status of the Award, so long as it was issued to Caitlin Clark. However; it SHOULD matter to the Organization since the image they portrait is a big part of their agenda to grow the game. If I were them, I'd scrutinize the process as to avoid issuance of said award becoming a joke like the Pat Tillman Award, wrongfully issued to a non-deserving individual that was unworthy.
Of course it won't ruin CC's summer; that's not what this is about. A win's a win's a win. 50% + 1 is a win.
It's about using controversy to further a dialogue with a negative impact on the growth of the game.
In my humble opinion.
Just ask Shaq.
It doesn't matter on the award, and it definitely won't matter to Caitlin. But what it does matter to, is voter integrity. Because this doesn't do Angel any favors either. It actually hurts her in reality. So they did it to push an agenda, or they did it to spite Angel Reese. Either way, it wasn't a vote in good faith. Your vote is your vote. But the question also deserves an answer
60+ records broken in one year AND taking a losing team to the play offs.
How in anyone's mind does that not merit a unanimous vote?
Did Reese do any of that?
No.
The lone vote was racially based in my opinion.
It was unanimous … among those voters who voted based on data. The outlying vote should be brought in to provide their supporting data. If found to be untenable, the outlying vote should be discounted and 66 of 66 votes should then be considered. Otherwise, one could always cast a spiteful vote for the only intent to act as a spoiler.
Unanimous ROTY and not going to Olympics first year will be used when we have GOAT debates and if not didn’t matter y was Aja and the whole media clamoring for it -
We all know who didn't vote CC... *Cough* Swoops *Cough*
BUT it really dont matter , CC is the best thing to hit the wmba and should be seen as that.
Yes it matters CC makes her teammates better and maximizes their potentials and her teammates love playing with her. Angel Reese dosen't make anyone better her teammates don't like her style of play and all she can do at an elite level is rebound. She's Andre Drummond without rim protection or inside scoring threat.
All itmpoints out is the disrespect some have....burn If doesent matter....but Angel Reese? Really?
who was the no vote sheryl swoopes?!
Yes it’s just another slap in her face, can’t understand how Reese keeps getting called a great player, she offensively fouls everytime she’s going after her own rebounds
Angel Reese is gonna be a great player.
It’s not about CC, it’s about the voter. It says to me that we should question that person’s capacity to be analytical.
Just makes the voter look bad
The weird thing is she's not the first white woman to win ROY. There have also been white women that won MVP. So why is Caitlyn Clark specifically causing so much uproar? 🤷♂
Nobody don’t have time for these clarkies and trolls making death threats because you didn’t vote for Catilin Clark
Catfight.... catfight
The Most VALUABLE Player...Valuable. is Caitlin Clark. To her team. and to the WNBA. Period.
But whatever, A'ja the crybaby can have it again this year.
Rookie of the Year? Nah. Rookie of the Century
NO. Just one writer abusing their professional responsibility.
What if the table turns for MVP with A'ja Wilson... It is going to be another OJ Simpson- blackout....
Be careful Dan, when you respond back with facts to those Caitlyn haters., they’ll all come after you and label you as the one who is causing noise. From their point of view, any rebuttal to Caitlyn haters are the ones making big deal out of nothing and stirring up noise. They’ll label you as the aggressor and troublemaker for simply responding back with facts on their jealousy and hating.
Get off your high horse pal you Clark haters are worse in that your biases aren't based on anything other than a personal dislike of the player not what she's accomplished on the court which is substantial.
@@Fred-vy1hm did you read/understand my comments? I’m calling out those Caitlyn haters as well. That those Caitlyn haters will come after anyone that calls them out on their jealousy and hating on her.
Honestly, they should lose their vote 💯
IMO it shows that there are people that cannot evaluate realisticallyHATER VOTE bet is was SWOOPS
But she did win ROTY,By a massive margin..!!!!
Swoopes!! No doubt who voted for Reese
It only matters if you wagered on it.
Sheryl swoops for sure
Being the most important person in a league in one year as a rookie is exactly why she should’ve won rookie of the year? Damn that doesn’t make sense, my friend.😂😂😂
At least we know who the one racist is.
Spite and political. Reese sidelined herself because she knows she can't compete with CC!
We all know why this was.
But you just go on and on Evan after Pete Rose is dead. Never been more disappointed in Dan more than your non stop bashing of Pete for the last 30 years . Evan after his death, absolutely no grace.
Nope.
They should do a rookie of the year for blacks and whites. Then angel Reese could've won too
Americans would love that. They are all race obsessed
What if they’re half wte half blk?
Everybody gets a trophy 😭where's mine
And get their own water fountain. My how people in this country have slid backwards.
The W is so broke and disgusting.
I’m a Big10 womens BB season ticket holder. Much better basket ball being played, as a whole in the big 10
It does matter because you have to be one dedicated, foolishly biased, irresponsible 🤡 to be that one person to vote Angel Reese for this award. CC would have been one of the very few players in the history of that league to win the award unanimously. It’s a big deal because it’s yet another small but troubling indication of how petty and envious a number of these people associated with this unserious league are towards Caitlin Clark and her impact.
Didn't Derek Jeter get one vote shy from unanimous 1st ballot HoF.
Was it because of his race?🤔
The team he played for?🤔
Or was it spite?🤔
Guess its whatever rocks your jock at that point in time~🤪🤪🤪
