Women hate seeing other women succeed.
It’s all support until she doing better than they are😂
Hmph. Women. 😀☕
Maybe but there were plenty of haters when Lebron was entering the league too. Even on the team he was going to.
@@selfawarepotassium that's completely different situation lebron was called the chosen one and was talked about being better than mj which that status is high for such a young player that sort of hate doesn't compare to what Caitlin has 😂 the hate lebron has received was the goat debate this is just a women getting millions of dollars and the wnba is envious over the popularity Caitlin is getting
nobody hated lebron for making money or becoming famous they hated lebron bc they believed mj was the goat and that lebron couldn't live up to the hype
@@okay8458it is the same thing when u look tru the lense of both genders. Men want a name the respect and admiration of their peers. Girls like money or any type of resource in general. So this girl already gonna make so much more money than any other player they finna hate
Caitlin Clark by herself pulls in more viewers than wnba 🤣cash cow
Only because she plays college ball.
@@larky368 Because she is a once in a generation talent who people want to watch..she is the Larry Bird of today...
Caitlin Clark it's not going to do anything by herself.. basketball is a team sport.. and not everybody worships Caitlin Clark.. some of us have real jobs..
I dont get it...? She plays like every no future Wightboy in the country
Why the hype
@@sixfootbear do you think she is better than A'ja Wilson?
I’ve said if the WNBA doesn’t fumble the bag, Caitlyn Clark and Angel Reese is the WNBA’s Larry Bird and Magic Johnson
They'll fuck it up and we shouldn't be surprised
exactly but more like jordan probably since its more media
Exactly. Then there would be great players coming with and behind them from Iowa, LSU, and USC (Univ. Of South Carolina). Notice USC gave Dawn Staley bag! 💰 Why? In my opinion, because it wouldn't be a stretch for an NBA team to offer Coach Staley an opportunity.
Not Angel. She’ll be just another player in WNBA. She need to develop her game. CC more like Mike than the 2 of them Larry & Magic
Somebody would have to magic Johnson & Angel is not that
Seeing other women succeed drives them mad because it affirms the fact that their victim mentality is a grift.
TRUMP IS THE BIGGEST VICTIM IN THIS COUNTRY . And u love the dude
Absolutely 💯
Wtf are you talking about lmao
victim mentality is trump's thing
NOT OURS
WNBA killing their Golden Goose is expected. Women would rather destroy each other than to see another woman rise and shine in the spotlight all by herself.
Yip, it's normal female behavior
It’s like the great Al Bundy once said “don’t try to understand women. Women understand women and they hate each other.”
As a woman I can agree with this smh
That statement is false.
@@eccentricaste3232 no lies detected
She also said that Clark was 25 years old and takes 40 shots of game. That just proves she doesn’t watch women’s sports either.
She never said that I watched the whole show and that never was said
I only watched a few minutes and she did in those minutes xD Tf are u on @kidking___________________7554
She did say that@@kidking___________________7554

I’d be so petty and not go to the WNBA if I was Caitlin Clark 😂
she should go to Europe..🤣 outdraw the WNBA
@@pgroove163 You must be white . White people love hating on the WNBA
Crazy levels of jealousy Clark could be the biggest star in women's basketball ever and instead of pushing her to help a league that is struggling they try to tear her down it blows my mind.
This is like if MLS said "No we don't want Messi to play in our league and get more exposure." 😂
Except this is also if you were getting rookie Messi to the MLS and saying "no I don't want this transcendent talent in the US because he's from Argentina" or some shit
its definitely not like that.
@@FromTheHippit is
@@paulekezie465 the best player in the world who has achieved everything in the sport and is a living legend vs a chick that hasnt even played professionally. there are two entirely different fanbases and marketing schemes behind the two. they are not the same.
Clark is a living legend and the goat@@FromTheHipp
It blows my mind how they have a girl that’s about to come into the league who could very well end up being the Michael Jordan of the wnba and instead of propping her up and promoting her, the whole league is hating
The whole league hated on mj too in the beginning
Backwards for real
@@pinkt1t5 what since when? larruh burd called him god he was the nbas golden boy
@@pinkt1t5did they? I’ve never heard of that
@@slavko7898They literally said the leading scorer will never win the championship because of him until he did it 6 times lol
As a man who would never have watched women's basketball until I heard Caitlin Clark was close to breaking the all-time scoring record, I started watching period! Now I am hearing all the hate coming from some black WNBA players. I am not sure if it's because she's white or because she's not a practicing carpenter using tongue and groove probably both
It's not hate from just black players, it's just players
Pointing out that Cube is a businessman is such crap. What do you think those guys in other countries promoting WNBA are? It's insane that there's a group of women complaining about being underpaid, and then a guy steps in offering big money, and they get mad about that. You should want MORE opportunities for this type of thing to happen, instead of blaming them for trying to make money. I thought that's why they were playing hoop in the first place.
Do ya thang Caitlin, eff what they lookin at. WNBA scrubs will demand $5M cuz equality lol.
Nice CUBE reference
😂
Just like the neighborhood I grew up in....for some strange reason, being "GOOD" is some kind of crime! ESPECIALLY academically!
She needs to hock on the wnba and take her game to Europe! Are they that stoopit not to realize the revenue she can generate for the league??
Ban her from the League! SHE'S TOO EUROPEAN!
They really just sat there and let Sheryl Swoopes be loud and wrong like that 😂😂😂😂
Happens on Gil’s arena all the time. They throw stats out there cheeks and never get fact checked.
Better to let them make themselves look stupid
@@talldreamyopposumyup, ‘never interrupt your enemies when they make mistakes’ is on-point.
Because they will not dare to challenge her, it is racism then.
Not Racism 😂😂😂The queen 👑 Don't like to be interrupted EVEN IF ITS RIGHT THERE FACT CHECK !! FKN PATHETIC AF!!!!
I’m actually excited to see both Clark and Reese playing pro, it’s always been about entertainment in regards to WNBA. They bring excitement and I’m interested as to how they will impact the game of woman’s basketball
14 million watched Iowa/SC..most ever for womens hoops.somebody wake up these jealous players and explain to them the WNBA is a business..
I feel like NCAA Women’s basketball is just more fun than the WNBA, and they get to keep their players a lot longer than their male counterparts
The discourse around the Clark Big 3 situation is so weird to me because the WNBA players should take it as a good thing. Was the deal done solely for business purposes? Yeah, duh. But that means that there is a business man out there wanting to put $5M behind a single individual woman player. That means you have legit interest in women's basketball in some form. Use that info to realize what the market likes about her game, bring it into your league more, and make the WNBA what y'all want it to be: profitable
The problems with the offer is:
-Pushing it to one player is actually pretty insulting to other college and pro players that are jist as if not more deserving. Considering the talent coming out of college this year and stars in the wnba who are deserving as well is bad. You can her and maybe 4 other players to have at least 1 female player per team makes more sense. Overlooking ionescu, Wilson, reese, etc doesn't make sense
-it also makes a bad argument that they can play in a men's league. Big3 is more physical than the nba. She will not be able to deal.
Its because the wnba is mostly black gay women so she doesn't fit the image the stan for because she white a not gay
@RobJarrell63 exactly even Kenyon was talking about this if you think a bunch of old nights getting payed 12 grand is gonna allow a bitch to come in and play a single minute not leaving on a stretcher. Your out ya fucking mind. The only issue I have with ratings now is the shear amount of people with illegal streams etc. I know he's giving these numbers but look at the crowds their not full and in general 23 million people made brakes for the men's tourney vs 3 for the women's I just don't believe that many more watched in comparison theirs a reason that NBA ad and men's tourney ad still cost more and it's not misogyny it's dollars signs hell I dont know one dude who watched Iowa play or any womens game play. The car dealership, the gym, the barbershop barbershop all watching the men's tourney WHO is watching honestly
@@RobJarrell63Catlin is playing better than 99% of female basketball players. Pro or collegiate. She has made her value greater than any female basketball player (Outside of JuJu).
@RobJarrell63 bro you are part of the problem, someone has to get paid first, someone has to be the face of the league but every wnba player is simply jealous and doesn't seem the benefits for the league.
It's funny, the WNBA players whine nonstop about how unfair it is that they go play overseas, now all of a sudden it's the greatest thing in the world
Lol, they need to rebrand to the "LNBA", because apparently they just want to complain and keep taking L's in every conversation instead of any W that people are trying to hand them smh. WNBA players and their extremely small fanbase should all be supporting a player like Caitlin who everybody men & women seems to want to watch. But instead these people involved with the WNBA throw shade Caitlin's way, don't support her offers and/or success. Tbh, it probably just makes the millions of people who enjoy watching Caitlin play, outright not want to support anybody involved with the WNBA altogther. It's truly a failed league entirely, and it starts with the whiny players, their negative attitude and the fact that most can't actually hoop in a way that's entertaining to people that really enjoy and have respect for the game of basketball. No disrespect, but watching a WNBA game is similar to watching basketball in the special olympics. Yes, there may be a level of satisfaction watching disabled people play and have a passion for basketball, but at the same time it's not likely going to be intense, the players are going to be less skilled, and less athletic. Basically it's not going to be entertaining you, you'd basically be just cheering to cheer, because you're being nice and NOT because their play is moving you in any way. Everything they can do, you and/or 20-30 dudes down at your local gym that hoop can do the same or better with more intensity, more skill, and more athleticism and you and/or those 20-30 dudes at your local that hoop are extremely far from being NBA level. People watch the NBA because the players are impressive and what they do cannot be easily replicated against that level of competition. People watch Caitlin Clark because she is also impressive. People don't watch the WNBA because they are fully grown professional basketball players that are not even as impressive as the real hoopers at your local gym smh. It's really as simple as that. What makes things worse for WNBA players is they have the audacity to talk about how good they are and what they are worth. But we all know there's several non-NBA and non-professional players at any given local gym across the would be more entertaining to watch.
@@gamechanger114damn u been itching to get that out lmao. But yeah I agree
@@gamechanger114 bro, who is gonna read all that?
@@Infergal get off tiktok yo attention span is cooked, shit took 1 minute to read fr
@@gamechanger114 I get it that women sports ain't that athletic, I don't expect them to dunk, but they ain't no Larry Legends neither impressing me with high IQ plays. I don't need lower rims and dunks "for a good show". It's just boring to watch overall.
Women are too jealous of one another to help build that brand. Caitlin is the best thing that could happen to the WNBA and bring big brand deals and advertising deals which would mean bigger pay days for everyone but instead these scrubs that done nothing for the game are gonna hate on her.
In Jamaica we call these women "BAD MIND".
Gil’s Arena might be worse than First Take and Undisputed
bro i been saying this idk why this clown gets a mic
Literally
Like 1/10 clips I see from there are something I think their professional experience actually to give better insight on a situation and they're allowed to be more unfiltered than if they were on like ESPN or something. But the other 9/10 is just as dumb takes as I see on twitter. Shit baffles me
Gil is trying his best to become the next gen Skip Bayless.
@trevor5834 if actually you watch the show gil and Kenyon give great analytical breakdowns of the game itself but at the end of the day the 20 second clips of "hot takes" is what always goes viral
Low u do kno Angel plays for lsu not south Carolina..
Even when he tries to help them out, he still took an L😂

lol how you post a whole 15 minute video before verifying that. I don’t even watch ncaaw and I knew that 😅😂😊
Dude. Great video. You did your research and came with receipts. I don’t see how anything you said could be argued. Keep up the great work. You are quite intelligent and logical.
If Caitlin Clark don’t want to take the big 3 offer, Ice Cube should think about giving it to Angel Reese since she’s a senior too.
Angel Reese can’t shoot like Caitlin and Reese can’t post up men on the 3 on 3 league
who she ?...
And Angel is no Angel…bad attitude!
Why we surprised that women are extremely jealous with eachother tho😂😂
Nah fr..
So are men. That’s not a gender thing at all.
Nah tha bs. Men are competitive with each other, not jealous of each other. Big difference. They might strive to be better and shit talk from time to time. But once a winner is determined. They be giving each other props. Even in the NFL and NBA. Anytime a white player breaks some kind of record or does something a black player usually does. Nobody other than a few race hustlers and number of games purist try to discredit them like they are trying to do to Caitlin. Never seen this in any men's sport.@@selfawarepotassium
@@selfawarepotassiumthere’s a litany of research on this topic and you couldn’t be more wrong. Obviously it exists in both populations, but not to the same extent and not manifested in the same ways. It just gets messier because statistically males are more likely to settle disputes with physical altercations whereas in women’s aggression comes out in character assassination, innuendo and gossip. You obviously can’t fight a dude at your work, so male aggression is off the table. But for women, it just comes down to how creative you can be.
@@clayc5929there’s a ‘litany of research’ into male vs female jealousy? How was jealousy measured as a metric in those studies? All I said was men get jealous too (which you just agreed with).
You’d think wnba players would be excited that Caitlyn is coming to the WNBA, because more viewership means more revenue, which could eventually lift the salaries of the entire league once they start actually turning a profit.
They act like the NBA players just getting paid big because they’re men… no… NBA players used to get doodoo salaries too. Once the league started pulling in ratings, the money followed.
These players rather be victims than to get paid… insane.
exactly shutup and dribble and the money will follow
@@CahlilWesson Yep. As the NBA stars have been getting more and more talkative and whiny, the viewership has gone down. Their money is now being made on brand deals and advertising at better rates than ever, but the viewership is going down. If they stopped talking about anything other than the sport and played a slightly more physical game with defense, I'd bet their viewership goes back up. I know I'd start watching again if there was more defense. Better defense also means more explosive and awe inspiring offense.
That would equal higher prices. That's exciting to you?
They're not insane, people saying it's sexist to say women find value in being victims, to me it's just how women think. You have a generation that bigger than that thinking and they trying to hold them back because victim mentality isn't attractive.
i guess they haven't figured out that its a business..
You nailed every single point perfectly.
I’m worried that the Refs have already been paid off! Last years reffing was despicable! T on Caitlin for dropping the ball behind her? Cmon!
Naw, Lexis was salty because it was Clark who was asked to play the Big 3. If she was all about women's basketball getting that shine she would be getting behind this. She had no problem if it would have been Reese or Juju.
I don’t blame Cube for doing what he’s doing and she would be making more than the WNBA
for a few months until no one cares any more. This is a TikTok audience, no one cares about Ice Cube's league.
@@user-ky7le9bf2m don’t matter she can finish the contract and go to the WNBA just get the bag
@@user-ky7le9bf2m I believe hes on to something, format could be wildly entertaining.
This is why he didn't offer WNBA players the contract they are never happy
Getting at Gilbert’s pod for not fact checking then saying Reese plays for South Carolina in an edited video is the funniest thing ever 😂😂
Does that make his other point wrong? Misspeaking vs. talking out your ass like the second girl did.
I noticed that too. If you're going to fact check ✔️ Start with yourself!
If Clark was black she wouldn’t be getting the criticism she is getting.
👀
agreed they literally be hating on caitlin clark like she isn’t the clear best women player in the country !!!
Wtf are u talking about?
@@ktownes7559she isn't better than the WNBA players.
Now that’s a lie
The WNBA may have the single greatest influx of talent in the League’s history over the next couple of years. Clark, Bueckers, Brink, Watkins, Van Lith, Reese, Cardoso and Paopao could be transformative to the league. Swagger and fan-friendly styles matter.
Van lith is only good for looks she kinda suck in hoops
Just think Mambacita (Kobe's daughter) would be senior in HS this year. The coverage would have been LeBron level.
Well said!! They will change the impact of the wnba
The Iowa-LSU game should be a good one if the REFs keep it real. Keep it fair. That said, when one of the players (HVL) says its the good girls against the bad girls because ones white and ones black, you know there is hatred there. That crap doesn't bring in fans, it pushes them away.
CC bring the fans..and big $$$$$ ..Iowa /SC game most watched womens basketball game EVER.!..14 million viewership..
The WNBA potentially fumbling when they are on the verge of their own *Magic and Bird* happenstance is crazy 😂
Let’s keep it real most of them are haters it’s no different than old NBA legends hating on the new generation with salaries, style of play & breaking records
Dear Sir/Madam.
College games are STILL ending "72-67"!!
So NO, not buying these "broken records".
That’s not keeping it real. That’s simping.. women’s basketball is trash, and the only reason why viewership is up is due to hype. This won’t even be a conversation by next year
Just Comparing old nba legends to WNBA players is wild
@@Infergal🫵🫵🤡🤡🤡
Incel ass response@@Infergal
Ice Cube's offer is the first step in creating a new Women's basketball League under his banner. as for Angel Reese, she made it pretty clear last week that she wasn't going pro in the WNBA. remember last weeks post game victory press interview she literally called the WNBA a dumpster fire not worth playing in.
she said that? in this espn interview it sounds different ua-cam.com/video/N0OZgZpKtog/v-deo.html
I didn't know that. I would not be shocked if Angel Reese isn't snatched by Ice Cube next because they are natural rivals. Just like Magic and Bird were. However, because Angel Reese doesn't shoot 3's like Kaitlin, the contact with her while playing could an issue for some. It's not a problem for me. There was a movie in the 70's that had a woman playing on a men's team. She was a great player, especially as a jump shooter. They played an entire season, winning then they discovered they were playing basketball with a woman all along.
Until stuff changes in the WNBA. These women are not that eager to join the WNBA. The Big 3 might be better for them.
She going overseas
@@seanswinton6242 Fast Break! Gabe Kaplan! Mavis Washington as Swish, she was a legit college star in the 1970s and a high school coach in the 1980s! (You probably know all that)
You’ve got the basketball takes I’ve seen on UA-cam. Also, appreciate that you’re willing and able to take in new information to adjust your opinion. You’ve got my subscription.
Just watched her against LSU. I legitimately turned the game on to check her out and she didn't dissappint. She is a baller and her team is tough too.
NCAA womans basketball will always be bigger than the WNBA
The rule for the woman to stay for years is actually the reason why womans hoops in college is massive now, the four years of serious marketing has helped the individual stars unlike the one and done for men
It’s great for ncaa and it’s hindering the wnba😂
it isnt cause WNBA dont have to do that much marketing, they are already stars coming out of college@@austinlarrimore6542
It’s funny cause there’s a chance that some of the big names in college like Caitlyn Clark fade into the background when they go to the WNBA because the WNBA 1, doesn’t do a good job pushing players and 2, doesn’t have the backing of gambling anywhere near the level NCAA women’s does
Agreed. Right now, it’s much easier to invest in women’s college hoops for multiple years at a time because the stars stick around for longer.
And some of the top players are deciding to go back for their 5th year of eligibility. It's because they know they're at the peak of their career. WNBA is where women's careers go to die.
Men dont hold women back, women hold women back.
The last 2yrs in women's basketball, is the best thing to happen for women's basketball.
CC is the best that happened
Catiln Clark and Angel Reese really about to be the Larry Bird and Magic for the WNBA. Really change the landscape on how we view the WNBA. JuJu has the chance to have the Micheal Jordan impact level in the WNBA. Her looks, playstyle, and marketablilty. I am excited for what the future is instore for these women.
Stop it! Angel Reese and JuJu Watkins aren't them...
Juju is an inefficient high volume scorer who's turnover prone...she's taken 95 shots in her past five games and only has hit 33 to go along with 27 turnovers..
They sing the praises of JuJu yet they hate on Caitlin Clark because she's white. If Caitlin Clark was putting up JuJu's inefficient scoring numbers best believe they would be running her name through the mud.
In 6 months no one will care about either of them. There'll be a new phenom and that's that.
Still boring af
As long as I can bet on it I’m down Lol, NBA regular seasons is cheeks, only reason I watch it, is to make $ betting
Reese ain’t no Magic. Not even close to the Bird / Magic deal.
The wncaa always was doing better than the wnba
No such thing as WNCAA, it's just NCAA.
@@KenpoKid77 ncaa women. But easier to type wncaa
Hell yeah I remember the unconn days when they was dominating
the problem with the WNBA is they prioritize politics over basketball.
And this will be their downfall.
You just earned my subscription my guy. Amazing, unbiased analysis. Wish there were more guys like you working at the big networks
Lowering the rim makes perfect sense. They already play on a smaller court, with a smaller ball.
Court is not smaller. They shoot the FIBA three tho.
It would be awesome to see some posters haha
And less minutes
All the players would have grown up shooting on 10 foot rims, that would really mess up shooting percentages
They wanna have their cake and eat it too.
The problem with modern entertainment
Super intelligent commentary thank you! Subscribed!!
I didn't know that about the WNBA requiring women to play for 4 years in college before they can be drafted... that is one of the most ludicrous things I've ever heard of in my life. If any sport/team/organization values someone's talent in a given sport and is willing to pay them to play on their team or whatever, ones education level, etc, should have absolutely nothing to do with anything. I just looked it up and there is one exception, a player must be 4 years removed from high school before they could play in the WNBA, which is ridonculous as well.
Just in general, i absolutely detest the fact that the educational system has a monopolyesk control over certain sports, but that's a long argument in which I think has a sinister basis, but the principle is the same regardless, someone talented and showing promise to becoming pro in a given sport, that's cool if they want to hedge their bet and get an education as well in case it doesn't work out, but it shouldn't be mandatory. Some people aren't going to have the skills aptitude for the class room, yet if they have the talent to make it as a pro in a given sport the class room should have no baring on it whatsoever. Most of society has been programmed with this (football/basketball/baseball highschool sports/education being one in the same) because that's all we've ever known, but it's really goofy if you stand back and analyze it.
And to anyone who disagrees with my second argument. Imagine if someone who excelled in academics looking to get an engineering degree or whatever was required to to excel at a passing rate in competitive sports before they could get into that profession or get their degree? It's redic. Not everyone is going to have academic skills or even academic opportunities at a young age and the notion that an athlete talented enough to play pro or even continue there athletic journey as a pro hopeful without getting passing grades is obscene.

As usual, you just blew my mind with the depth of your analysis. My brother, you should be on TV. You do not just speak.
You actually research and think. Facts matter. I appreciate you my brother.
I don’t think people want to watch women’s basketball. They want to watch COLLEGE basketball. People feel a connection to the school they attended

@@5stariley People wanna see good players win
Here’s the thing bro. It’s documented, players in the NBA that were vets in 1979 didn’t like the hoopla and so forth bird and magic got when they were rookies. People definitely didn’t like that $25 million contract magic got in the 80s
The execs just didn’t care and still marketed them. And it worked out because they both won multiple titles and multiple MVPs.
This right here is a moment where the wnba execs gotta do the same thing. Do what’s best for their league regardless of what existing players feel about it. And market Clark and Reese like it’s nobody’s business!
That article talked about juju but juju won’t be out of school for like 3 more years. By that time, if things are done right with Reese and Clark, more eyes will be on the league for an exciting highlight reel player to take over…
If that sounds familiar, it was 5 years after bird and magic came into the league that a 6’6 guard from NC electrified the league and basically became the most famous figure the following decade.
Not saying that will happen in the WNBA, but I feel this is their moment.
Also! Black players threw shade at Larry behind closed doors. And Isaiah said it flat out in a post game interview
@@EddieWoodsRemnantOutreach If I remember correctly, it was Rodman who said it and Isaiah backed him up (Isaiah's part is what got televised) because he wasn't gonna throw his teammate under the bus for his jealousy and frustration after being dominated all game. But yeah, they would all throw shade until they played against him. Once they did, most of those players apologized and realized his greatness. It's why they started saying he wasn't white, he was clear. Partially to make fun of even themselves for their biases in the past, and also to make it clear to the fans who were being biased that they had full respect for Larry and his game.
Yuhhhh they gonna draw attention then JUJU will be sooooo cold by time she in WNBA,
Idk why people hating on these young ladies… the Xs and Os of wnba is always on point, just not the excitement
@@Orphim didn’t Detroit just get beat by them and both Rodman and Isaiah said it? It’s not about throwing the player under the bus, he could have handled the question a lot better without doing that. And regardless, players still felt that way, so you just proved what I said was true.
@@danny_dacheeto1055 exactly. They just need some eyes and players to draw attention, these players will do that and bring excitement
I definitely respect Ice Cube for thinking outside of the box!!!
all these people are hating on the woman who is about to put women's basketball ON THE MAP FOR THE FIRST TIME EVER TO THIS EXTENT!!!! They literally just dont want to see her succeed
Caitlyn Clark is going to make MONEY no matter how good she ends up being. She’s already the biggest star in women’s basketball (angel Reese could have competed, but she got suspended and this lsu team has been underperforming). Even if her wnba official salary is small, she WILL get a signature shoe with her brand of choice and will get a LOT of endorsements if she plays everything right.
Honestly, the storylines in women’s college basketball are so good that an undefeated South Carolina team, and Juju, and Paige buckets at UConn are all sub-stories. Amazing sub-stories, but still… THAT is how good it is atm. I Never thought I would prefer women’s college basketball over men’s, but here we are.
Aww man NBA post LeBron is looking amazing!! Luka, Ant, Wemby, Shai, and Jokic are all making basketball incredible to watch.

If you watched her against Kiki when they fell to Stanford, you very likely understand why I’m not ready to push the chips in for her.
If I was coaching and had moderately talented defensive post players, I’m quite certain I could coach them to Never need to double team her. - do I think she’s capable of using this off-season to get her body/game to a better place and still be a menace for most teams, especially with the amount of shooting they have around her, absolutely. Unfortunately, at this point, I’d only make small-medium sized bets on her in the right matchups, no all-in action.

In regard to the NBA, I don’t disagree with your point.
That said, if you haven’t been watching, TONIGHT is the night to take a peak at women’s NCAA basketball scene. You’re about to see one of the most exciting double headers in quite some time.
This year’s WNBA draft is like the ‘03 draft of Bron, Melo, Bosh, Wade, etc. there’s so many great characters and story lines that it’s just incredible to watch. - and 2 years ago, I would have told you this shit was like watching paint dry, so I get it.
In regard to your NBA take, I don’t think it even needs to be “post-lebron” I genuinely think, if he wanted to, he could play a more “supportive” pg role for the next 5-10 years and have a Legendary “2nd career” in that role and I KNOW that sounds asinine, but if 1 person could do it, it’s that creature. - and I’d kind of love to see him out there making these great players even better in that role. - but I think his interests will eventually transition to ownership/management, but who knows
The problem is also that it would very likely destroy his all-time averages and most players wouldn’t do that.
First of Clark hasn’t played any extra time, secondly that would mean every nfl record will never truly be broken because they only one extra game now
Caitlin Clark, Paige Buechers, JuJu Watkins, Angel Reese and many others are the reason NCAA women's BBballer's are changing viewing habits. WNBA play style is dismal, with an attitude to match. This current generation of women's college basketball is the most entertaining the game has been for long time.
I totally get where she is coming from, with Ice Cube coming up with a false sense of care for helping out players in the WNBA (by recruiting a college bball player) being annoying. But it still tracks with the odd tendency of the WNBA feeling offemded on behalf of *anyone* trying to suggest any changes to the league so that it becomes better!
I feel bad for Caitlin largely because I can totally see the WNBA self-sabotaging her arrival into the association by taking her for granted and failing to they market her right.
Caitlin is tough mentally and has been facing criticism since grade school when she played on a boys team and got league MVP. She'll be fine. She has an excellent support group.
The changes that people want is pretty much just lowering the rim heighg. They are against that because they have to play in international leagues. The whole world isn't going to change rim heights. Also things like Olympics. Y'all say shit like it's easy but it's not.
Clark doing current nba playoff numbers lol in the tournament 😂
I remember seeing some people saying Paige Beuckers and Haily Van Lith were going to make the WNBA great, little did they know.
If they play their cards right, they could be the Magic and Bird of the WNBA
I agree wholeheartedly. I was having this argument with my brother who was trying to tell me the ONLY reason she is getting views is because she is white. I told him that theirs no female players like her. She is literally female Steph curry in a sense where she will revolutionize the game
Good grief. Does your brother not know about her records? All-time leading scorer is usually a pretty big deal in any sport. 😂
The only reason they're all hating on her is because she's white actually.
She should play in Europe and make more money, rather than put up with the haters.
Same things were said about Larry Bird.
It is truly eye opening and popping how Kaitlyn Clark excites the crowds with her shooting three pointers from long distance!!!
She reminds me very much of Steph Curry as well!!!
I have not seen a woman of her caliber play in such an amazing way that is captivating people to now watching her play!!!
I will be watching to see what decisions she makes next for her future!!
I just hope she does not even consider going to the WNBA!!
That league is self hating and it will only hurt her to go to a league that wont support her growth!!!
This reminds me of the lyric of the song that i really like "Everybody supports women until a woman's doing better than you"
At which point they need to start supporting you.
Nailed It, content spot on....! (Tip, limit the screaming, I knew you were going to loose the headphones, Ouch)
This is why we never let them “be in charge” 😂😂😂
Angel Reese doesn't play for South Carolina, my boy
Yes, we know she plays for LSU but she isn't the talented as Clark. So him getting the school wrong is pointless because she isn't on the same level.
@@NickJaimeCaitlin is great offensive player but plays no defence
@PaulinaVega-fi6po No , she doesn't play any defense. I follow iowa basketball . Yes, her offensive prowess is beyond reproach . However, in the wnba, he will have to work on her defense. The South Carolina women team resembles somewhat the las vegas acres of the wnba . I hope iowa gets past unconn and meets up with South carolina for all the marbles. The ratings I'll bet you will be the men's ncaa championship .
Nobody is going to be competitive with the Unconn men.
The UNC lost to alabama was a bad loss .they gave that game away
@PaulinaVega-fi6po I hear you . I'm hoping to see iowa vs. South carolina in the ncaa women basketball finals
That’s a good thing she doesn’t otherwise Clark wouldn’t have had a chance😂
WNBA players will beg to get paid more then when they get paid more they get mad 😂
It’s because it’s not them doing it. They will have to accept they were not entertaining enough to get that attention on their league, these young women bring it.
I'm gonna laugh my azz off if Caitlin Clark decides she doesn't want to play basketball anymore and walks away from it all. 😂😂😂
I don't think the WNBA can afford Caitlin Clark. 🤣
Caitlin Clark and Angel Reese finna be the bird and magic of the wnba🤣🤣🤣 I fw Clark heavy and I’m a huge lsu fan so I’m big ready for it. I thought Breanna Stewart would change wnba viewership but it didn’t happen
Shes good but shes not electric/charismatic
On god and Reese, Paige, Brink. They all bout to bring views and money to the league, they skillset is the start of the new generation
JuJu vs Clark
Reese isn't anywhere near as good as Clark. Comparing the match up to Magic/Bird is laughable.
Jokic hate, Clark hate, doncic hate coming in.. all have common denominators
stop it...because there's plenty of Lebron hate, Giannis hate, Bronny hate, Jaylin Brown hate....just stop it. You're reaching
Jordan got hate, isiah, bird and magic, wilt, Kareem etc... it just comes with the Territory.
Bron in 2010-11 is arguably the most hated player of all time in that season.
You are now reaching
being a basketball player
Being honest and being an asshole are not the same thing. They could have complimented her storybook college career and wished her luck in the WNBA, but they took the petty ex-GF route instead.
It’s like when lebron was a rookie, NBA players were jealous and threatened
Caitlin Clark should damn near be drafted to the NBA. 😭
If the women used the same basketball that would be feasible. I think they screwed the pooch by having them play with a smaller ball.
Nah. But if there were a draft prospect shooting like her, people would be hyped as hell
@@user-ky7le9bf2m Women generally have smaller hands. That's why they play with a smaller ball. It isn't that deep, it's just biology. 😂
I would like to see her play in the big 3 against men. I think that'd be interesting to see if she if she could excel. I believe she could
@Rascool69 you may wish she could exceed against men but the truth is she is facing inferior athletes. She’s a beast no doubt. That said, a grown man is gonna press her and she won’t have the open shots like she gets right now.
Ice Cube messed up when he mentioned the WNBA. All he had to say was that he was trying to give up & coming women athletes a chance to showcase their talent in the Big 3, make a lot of money, and extend their brand.
The second he said “WNBA”, he allowed all of these jealous WNBA athletes toto chime in and try to down play Cube’s idea.
How is that jealous tho? She basically saying he was bs.. which he was …he knew it would leak and he knew she wouldn’t accept it…he never even offered a dude a mill … now he throwing out 5 for a college player ? Come on now 😭 and like she said big 3 season not even during over seas season for them …shit was cap
@@deeswagg21she is right, but did she ever ask the question. Is it wrong of Ice Cube? Not really, he just misspoke/misrepresented, but it’s still his money to give. It does make her look like she comes from a place of envy tho.
@@indescribableemptiness4104 lmao why would she need to ask that ? Clearly she think it’s wrong of ice cube to cap about a deal and give a bad reason for it … like I said we all know he wasn’t giving that especially because she wasn’t ever going join that … it makes no sense from a financial standpoint and sponsor standpoint for her …can’t come from a place of envy by calling out a bs deal lol
@@deeswagg21 the only thing bs about it is the intentions, so he’s capping, so what? Like literally every single other sponsor and business on the planet when they want a pat on the back.
What’s the negative beyond it being not EXACTLY for the purpose he stated? It’s his choice to move the money wherever he wants to. If he was giving away government grant money, and he was giving it contrary to the reasons it was being handed out I could see your argument. But it’s his money to give.
Edit: My confusion is that I don’t see whats different to this situation to say Walmart talking about sustainability and humanity and handing out money, or any other corporation. Why does the energy stop here at Ice cube, the obvious reasoning is that the criticism comes from a place of envy which is why I specified that it looked that way . When people are silent on all that other stuff it comes off as hypocritical.
@@indescribableemptiness4104 lmao she literally in the wnba , she has a right to talk about it especially since he inserted them when he didn’t have to ..he said he doing it to give them a opportunity….thats cap ….he said the offer is there for her even though he know 10/10 times she not turning down the wnba for that shit so that’s a cap offer ….he said it gives them a chance to not go overseas lmao which is cap ….acted like the plays they go hoop overseas is just some dump which is more cap….. ppl like BG who go over seas is making bank…it stops at ice cube because he literally the owner and the one who made the comments and the bs offer with the bs statement to back up why he gave the offer….u acting like she said that girl don’t deserve the offer …she called out the offer and asked where are the other offers if that’s why u doing it
Hey man, amazing content. i just wanted to point out that the audio is a little low, I had to volume up a lot. But anyways great video, keep going 🔥🔥
‘You wanna get behind this’ is crazy 🤣🤣🤣
The lgbtq thing is weird to me because yes when Caitlin goes to the W she will definitely have a target on her back because she has a boyfriend and has far as we know she’s not a part of that community she’s supposedly “catholic” which we idk if that’s true because just because she went to a catholic school doesn’t mean she’s catholic because usually in Iowa we always say the religious schools pay the athletes to go there and i feel like Caitlin doesn’t hate the lgbtq community because I’ve been watching her before she came to Iowa she’s had teammates who are a part of that community like Monicika Czinano from last year she’s her best friend and ever teammates of Caitlin have nothing but very positive things to say about her
Lots of Catholics don't hate the LGBTQ. Stop letting propaganda from the extreme left and CNN/MSNBC influence you too much. Same in the other direction with Fox and Daily Wire. Truth is found away from all of that bs.
Wow dude. It's called "punctuation" and you should try some.
Thank you for making this video dude. Was so mad listening to the Bull on Gil’s arena and in general.
Remember that is Women's NCAA basketball not WNBA!
The same talk occurred when Larry Bird entered the NBA. It took him years of outstanding performances before the NBA acclaimed him for his actual value to the game.
Angel Reese ain’t even the best player in college😂 it’s debatable if she’s even the best player in her team. I’m not sure why she gets compared to Clark. It’s not fair
Don’t matter at all, she’s still a STAR PLAYER. She just won SEC player of the year award and has way more followers on social media than any other college women’s basketball player.
@@Saph_Adams followers has nothing to do with skill. I’ve seen plenty of people robbed for sec POY plenty of times. Murrow is probably their best player. She’s averaging a double double on the season while also averaging more steals and blocks than Reese. I think Reese is more impactful but not their best player.
@@shadowmenace1672 you are slow bro. You think people aren’t watching LSU to see Angel? She’s still one of the biggest stars in her sport dumbo. Done debating lmao
@@Saph_Adams Didn't Reese ride the bench for awhile this year because she was lazy on the court?
@@Saph_Adamsexactly 💯
I remember Sheryl on Gil’s arena who was hating and literally lying about Caitlyn nasty work, is pretty similar to how old NBA players hate on the new age, u can clearly tell they are mad envious that cait is getting all of this recognition.
Whats odd is Sheryl Swoops got a ton of press when she entered the WNBA. The average NBA fan knew who she was, so she had her time.
Other old lady is crazy
Bro she literally said Clark was 25yrs old. That shit absolutely blew my mind…
I think the WBNA wants to use Caitlin as a way to boost the league.
I still don't think Catlin can get people to watch the wnba!
imma say it just like this. the WNBA better give praise to the WWE. they got that viewership because of story lines
Rip Gigi and Kobe, but imagine if Gigi was around cuz this dead a revolution of women’s basketball
When your team respect and don’t walk out in the middle of the National Anthem they deserve million dollars contracts
Small correction. Angel Reese who is going in for the WNBA draft soon, was a star player for LSU Tigers, and South Carolina's player is Kamilla Cardoso. If the draft goes the way it is projected, Cardoso will end up on the same team as the player who won the Niasmith Defensive Player of the Year, Cameron Brink. There are so many talented women who graduated this year that are going pro, and even more in the wings that are rising stars. Like, Juju Watkins from USC, or even our Hannah Stuelke for the Hawks.
People also want to say that Caitlin isn't a GOAT, but Dawn Staley, a GOAT not only when she was a player, but as a coach, CALLED her a GOAT after the championship game that was played yesterday.
They’re women of course they’re jealous. Self sabotage at its finest lol
You incels are hilarious
@@YouScareMe1 lol “incel” really ? You ppl are such a joke . If you knew what I looked like you’d retract that statement lol
CC is the key to the wnba’s future. She’s easily the biggest draw women’s hoops has ever seen, and her style of play works perfectly in enticing a crowd to watch and get hyped
Great video! SUBSCRIBED!!👍
The moment Clark goes and plays pro and completely dominates Bob Griner and Co.an entire continent will rejoice. This woman is most likely ta generational trend setter.
