A helluva good representative for the league.

It's very unfortunate and unfair that the right-wing fake grievance machine has latched onto her to generate stupid controversy. My Dad's wife, who as far as I know hasn't watched a game of basketball in her life, is really upset about the way CC is being treated.

Those “fans” who are over 40 and calling anyone who touches CC a “thug” and calling fouls “assaults” were probably huge Bill Lambeer fans back in the day.

How else do they speciously abide their natural insecurity over her Adam's Apple? If not for the "thug" excuse they'd be all in on her boyfriend being a prop. The enemy is always one of the Woke! Using one of them against the other makes the Shiteaters feel sophisticated.

They're so put upon. Should we offer reparations?

And Angel Reese just tied the all time WNBA consecutive double-double streak. It's awesome that the two of them are living up to the hype. I hope the league can maintain the momentum it has right now because it's really good basketball and a lot of fun to watch.

She just got 19 assists in a game. Caitlin Clark is the female version of Larry Bird. She has the same court vision and high BB IQ. She is setting single season and single game records as a rookie. She is a very good rebounder too, as a PG. she averages 17.1 ppg, 5.8 reb, 8.2 ast, 1.5 stl per game.

When Caitlin was able to replace a player on the all-star team, her jersey sold out in 17 minutes. She is the Taylor Swift of the WNBA.

The only problem is the rest of the WNBA players don't understand her success will better their lives and prospects so their petty jealousies will end up hurting the golden goose.

Great breakdown of Caitlin Clark. I love Angel Reese too. The more I watch the WNBA, the more I realize it is becoming a quality league. There is really good talent in the league. It is a great sport, and fun to watch during the dog days of summer.

I really like the women's game a lot. I see it as basketball in its purest form. The skill has skyrocketed in the last decade. I look at the women's game in comparison to the men's game the same as I see tennis. It is really enjoyable to watch, and I hope they have longer seasons. And I like the Indiana Fever with Clark, Mitchell, and Boston. They are very young and talented.

Women's basketball has come a long way. I feel this is the type of basketball I remember years ago in men's basketball. Love it!

How many times did she shoot technical foul free throws list night? It was a lot. I saw the game. It was on Ion (YouTubeTV).

I think everyone may be forgetting how Jordan was treated his rookie year.

They beat the shit out of him. And his teammates were not at all interested in protecting him. It’s a very similar situation (minus the cocaine orgies I hope).

“The refs did nothing!” posts are getting very old and tired. Are these blue check grifters analyzing every play to make sure similar instances with other players were called fouls? Or are they just focused on KC because she’s white and this feeds the Xitter machine of white rage that Elon covets?
