The league need to do something about these illegal screens the Warriors set regularly. Look at this nasty double moving screen by CP and Draymond on Derrick Jones Jr for the Steph 3 late in the game. By the time the refs blow one or two offensive fouls in crunch time, they'll be forced to play the game the right way.

Big shout out to coach Dawn Staley, haters are going to hate but keep doing you.

There will never be another Caitlin Clark in NCAA women's basketball. It is sad she was ultimately unable to get it done but her name would remain forever.

I see a lot of people by people I mean black people (women and simp men) hating on Caitlin cos of her skin color and not being down with the Alphabet mafia. And I pity them.

If they care anything about that charity league they call WNBA they would rally round her so none of them need to take vacations with Vlad Vlad or OG Xi. She's the last hope of that league and it's a pity their inferiority complex and racial biases won't get out the way

I agree with you on the jealousy but I think it spans across the gender and not just blacks. Diana Turasi made some comments of National TV that reeked of jealousy.

I think the current WNBA players, especially the older ones feel she hasn’t done anything to be in the GOAT conversation.

Many of them are happy she did not win a title because according to them, you can’t be in a GOAT conversation without a title.

They are also offended by the narrative that she is coming to save or lift the WNBA because of her following and record attendances whenever she players. Also she isn’t so much interested in any other thing thing than playing basketball, which is different from what the current WNBA players do.

I dont think that Taurasi response was as bad as you say, what she said was the truth and pretty balanced. Are there haters? Yes. But I think some of her supporters are also looking for hate under every rug. Like she said, lets see how that game translates to the WNBA.

Hi guys, nice to meet you all. All my life, I had only watched football until recently when I had to research to write some YouTube scripts on some upcoming basketballers.

Since then, think I am slowly falling in love with the game and I can't believe that I looked down on it before although I still don't know much about it.

Can someone please recommend a site where I can watch NBA games (legal or illegal)? I don't mind paying for subscription if necessary.

I'd get specific. There's an all inclusive Venn diagram of her haters. The first side are black women and men jealous that a white woman is getting all the coverage and attention in a sport with a black majority. They've used all types of talking points to diminish her greatness, look at that bitter yenta that came at Ice Cube cos he wanted her in his big 3 league. They brought their woke talking points and socialist mentality not realizing his league is also in the market place and needs revenue to stay afloat

Second side is the Alphabet mafia, the Woke gang, Caitlin is a white, heterosexual woman who's not gotten in bed with the mafia, she's uninitiated and that's no bueno. She will have to bend the knee and get down with the get down or else they will keep sending hate her way

She's probably not the GOAT but she's definitely in the top 5 conversation. She beat the two champions in back to back seasons just not in the last game. Suggesting she's not in the Mt Rushmore is just hate

I hope the WNBA players continue their hate on the woman that's the last hope of their league so their league can remain in rigamortis for another 30 years. You would think women and WNBA players alike would put their emotions to the side and rally round someone coming to save their league. If they think 14m people will tune in to their tournament next year they're sadly mistaken

Clark passes as someone who is comfortable in her own skin. She has left all on the floor in back to back NCAA finals. She didn't win on both occasions but she clearly made a name for herself. She is etched in history as having scored the most points in NCAA both Men and Women. The haters can hate. I found myself disliking BET for their 'excessive blackness' posting content on Angel Reese and LSU with the 'Black Queen' mantra. It suddenly began to reek of inferiority complex to me when they posted reactions of black celebrities to South Carolina's NCAA win with their followers on social media hawking the 'black queen' mantra like gala. I just tire. When it comes to BBall, no one cares your race, just play ball. C.Clark has been able to draw the attention of the world, Male, Female, Black & White. I just pray she continues and ups that level at the WNBA. Let the hate continue. Boys go still tune in to watch her assists and 3-points shots.

Exactly. All that counts is that she brought historic number of eyeballs to their game. Whether the other women rally round her remains to be seen. You know these people have a socialist mindset they don't know the league needs revenue to pay them. They think they're owed money cos they throw balls in a hoop

They for the most part seem bitter and jealous even the white ones among them which is why I don't think it's just a race issue. The fact that she's not bent the knee to the Woke/LGBTQ mafia is also no bueno. You see one of the primary reasons for the existence of that league is to push that agenda. Caitlin Clark is a contrast to that. If you want to see real hate. Let her bring up God or declare her support for Trump that's when you will see real outrage grin

Black American people especially the women are always on some victimhood P. That one is not new. All I'd say is they should stop celebrating and embracing degeneracy and maybe people will start taking them seriously.

It's in the interest of that league if they ever want to be profitable to know the demographic that gives a damn about sports (straight 15-65 year old males) and keep pushing women like Caitlin Clark not masculine presenting women like Britney Griner or Diane Taurasi that don't even have the athleticism to backup their masculine costumes

Warriors had better. That is their best chance to qualify for Playoffs, they beating Suns for 7th place. Sacramento and an AD led Lakers would be a big problem.

Ice Cube is about to add more petrol to the fire. Baba has offered Caitlin $5M to play in the in his BIG 3. If she accepts that offer, that would be monumental earnings for just 8 games and it doesn’t stop her from playing in the WNBA. I imagine WNBA players will die even further of hate and jealousy.

Many of these women are being unnecessarily bitter and petty about everything.
