@@Sniffles69 Definition of entitlement. CC is genuinely impressive and bringing in crowds that will see the WNBA grow and they are so jealous of her that they can't even be happy for the fact that it means good things for all of them. Imagine preferring to watch your business fail rather than let someone else shine and make everyone more successful as a whole because of jealousy.
@@jeffbrooks3832 Sorry this misses the mark, there is some truth to the video but it ignores the actual issue. The reason the WNBA has a problem with Clark is that she destroys the victimization narrative of the league. She proves that the failure of the WMBA has ALWAYS been about the quality of the players not dissemination. They hate her for that.
she need to do what Elvis Presley and Travis Kelce did... reject the GREAT WHITE HOPE📰 mo from media. Indiana vs Chicago sky .. NIKE is like ....can we get back our $20 millions?
@cinnamonstar808 Clark doesn't seem to pay no mind to that hype, and she will get better and the team will soon be more in tune with each other. As to why you would choose a racist expression is very sad. Nike not gonna take nothing back...who would they give it to?
@@barrettorth8413but just because it fits dont mean that's the shoes she wearing. She came to hoop and be a legend not uplift white America primarily she will uplift who she uplifts by living by example. She will uplift players of all backgrounds she will uplift all who follow her and are inspired by her not just white people. Think Michael Jordan or LeBron James for example they inspired Luka doncic and Nikola jokic
What is wrong with White people being uplifted? Black people are uplifted all the time but yet White people can't. I am really getting sick of this double standard.
I want to know how many points the US woman’s basketball TEEN team LOST by… The whole team are immature, jealous, racist drama high school prom queens ..
I would not know who she was if it werent for UA-cam suggesting vids about her. And somebody needs to tweak the algorithm because I have zero interest in sports. But the drama I see in this video is mildly amusing.
@@Shorty_Lickens Same. I'm a football fan. Liverpool fan. I have never watched a single Basketball game in my life. Don't know why they keep shoving this chick in my face. From what I can gather here this is just a race thing. White people like the white girl...and black people like the black girl. The white girl is obviously also backed by huge PR because...she's white in a sport dominated by black players. So she's like the only shining light for white people. I hear she's pretty good too. Good for her.
If someone INJURES HER, ...god forbid ENDING HER CAREER, the WNBA might as well FOLD! Not only will it remove the amazing and positive spotlight the league is enjoying AS NEVER BEFORE, ....it will REVERSE THAT POSITIVE TIDE TIMES A MILLION! If Caitlin gets taken out BY DIRTY PLAY, ...you can STICK A FORK in the WNBA! People will BOYCOTT THAT LEAGUE FOREVER!!!
Dickenson cries the white people hold him down but thinks he lives in a nicer place than a white guy... lol. Either your race lies or is dumb... both really
Same bro... and all this talk of equal pay and other nonsense without facts. 95% of the viewership of WNBA come from men, women don't even support women sports, which is fine but stop making bullshit ass remarks about people being sexist. WNBA just wasn't fun to watch, hopefully CC changes it.
I dated a woman who played in the WNBA and I had still never seen a single game. Or even a clip of a game. I now know teams and players and have seen several games SOLELY because of CC.
Is not just about jealousy and bitterness, most or some of them are lesbian, there behavior and mindset are the problem, thinking to be a lesbian or its okay to act one is not a good role model to our youth.
@omgfun1017 Jealous of what? While I've never been a fan of Taurasi, she does have a career of success to fall back on, while CC hasn't completed her rookie season and her claim to fame at the moment is she's about to smash the season record for TOs. Taurasi is going to the Olympics, so explain what you mean by jealousy. I think you mistake jealousy for someone discussing perspective. A twenty year career vs a few months into their first season.
The WNBA should love her. Nobody really watched it before CC to any extent. If these women deliberately injure her, they can go back to whining about playing in empty, small arenas. If Caitlin is gone the league will just be boring as usual. Maybe they can tout Taurasi and Griner as the face of WNBA, which will attract viewers as in the past. Yeah, right.
As a european all i can say is that i know exactly two WNBA players - 1 is Kelsey Plum because she became a meme recently and 2 is Kaitlin Clark because she's such a talent. No one else gets even talked about so they should better support her
The comment, "Caitlin Clark doesn't need the WNBA, the WNBA needs Caitlin Clark" pretty much sums up the whole situation. And the women in the WNBA better wake up, especially the jealous DT who claims to be the greatest of all-time, she isn't showing much greatness by her words or actions. And as for DT winning 3 National Championships, she wouldn't have won any if she hadn't gone to UCONN, but they probably would have still won those three without her.
Diana Tausasi is not the GOAT of women's basketball players. As a professional player, each player should be doing something to contribute to growth of the sport and the league that enables you to make a living balling. Here you have Caitlin Clark, the one player who can actually elevate the sport and make professional women's basketball financially self sustaining. She is the one chance to actually make the WNBA great. And what does Diana do? Shit on her. Did the greats like Bill Russell, Chamberlain, Kareem, Dr. J, Jerry West, Bird, Magic and the other mega stars shit on Jordan or Kobe? These guys all competed hard against each other but they did not allow their professional rivalries to hurt the league (the Kareem vs. Chamberlain feud was toxic) but they never fucked up the NBA for the next generation. Now contrast this with Diana....? She is a 42 year old woman, yet she does not have the maturity to put her ego aside and do what is right for the league and the sport. Diana Tausasi or whatever this little girl's name is will be cursed and called all kinds of lurid and filthy names by future generations of women athletes when they see that the WNBA fumbled the bag with Caitlin Clark. This little girl climbed the ladder of opportunity for herself but then cut the rungs of the ladder for future generations.
@@Edot300of course she did. And picked her friend Griner (the one who said she would beat an NBA player 1:1, LOL). Hopefully this Tausasisi will leave soon and the WNBA will also start to enforce some kind of conduct code and get rid of that toxic femininity they have
@@johnnylawrence9099give it a few years and maybe they’ll team her up with some other great players. Even Jordan needed experience and a good team to win his rings.
@@darnellroberts8363I’m sure they will because basketball is literally a team sport 😂. Coach Carter said it best when he got moaned at; “oh ok, that’s good. Do you score all the points for the team too?”
Anyone who saw women's college basketball knows that Iowa was a mediocre team, and without Clark they wouldn't have made the playoffs, let alone the finals. How anyone expected Iowa to beat a stacked South Carolina team is bonkers. If Clark had a few really good players in Iowa, she would have had 2 championships under he belt.
This kind of pettiness amongst successful women is very well documented in the corporate world. Successful women tend cut down their peers more frequently than men do. WNBAs issue with Clark are a microcosm for how women treat other women generally.
It's really sad, but I'm glad it at least gives her an opportunity to keep turning the other cheek and playing her game. That can't do anything but make her more endearing in the eyes of anyone not just a delusional or jealous hater of her (who of course just get angrier and angrier like children would when she doesn't respond to their attempts at "bullying" her). She does whatever she can to respond strictly with her game and by beating them on the scoreboard, and I will always respect the hell out of anyone that does that.
Big UCON fan here. DT was an incredible basketball talent who has turned into a miserable, bitter soon to be retired player. No endorsement deals for you lady.
@@ramonpunsalang3397 So we still have to put up with her? Screw that. WNBA can go back in the basement where it belongs. I don't wanna watch a bunch of lesbians being mean to each other on the BB court.

Retirement On March 22, 2016, Wiggins announced her retirement from the WNBA after eight seasons.[15] Despite being only 29 years old and without a career-threatening injury, Wiggins expressed in a letter about her retirement that she was ready to move on from playing professional basketball.[15] In a 2017 interview with The San Diego Union-Tribune, Wiggins revealed more about what led her to retire from basketball. Calling the league's culture "very, very harmful" and "toxic to me", she alleged that she had been bullied on the court throughout her WNBA career for being heterosexual and nationally popular. Wiggins added, "I wanted to play two more seasons of WNBA, but the experience didn't lend itself to my mental state." During the interview, she remarked: Me being heterosexual and straight, and being vocal in my identity as a straight woman was huge. I would say 98 percent of the women in the WNBA are gay women. It was a conformist type of place. There was a whole different set of rules they (the other players) could apply."[16][17] Wiggins' remarks led to a major backlash from many WNBA players and other sports figures, but she largely stood by them. She did clarify her "98 percent" remark, saying: "It was my way to illustrate the isolation that I felt personally. I felt like the 2 percent versus the 98 percent."[18
Ok, fine. If there is "an amount" of rookie hazing that goes on, ...then so be it. BUT, ...if these JEALOUS, HATEFUL, BULLYING players are INTENTIONALLY going unnecessarily hard, to the point of violence, ...because they are ignorant, hateful simps, ....then let me just say this, ...IF SOMEONE ACTUALLY INJURES Caitlin, ....or even god forbid, ...ENDS HER CAREER .....EVERYBODY LOSES! The League, the players, the fans, ...EVERYONE! So although I'm not saying there needs to be any "rules" put in place to "protect" her, ....I WILL caution EVERYONE, especially the players and the league ....if you guys screw up the best MOMENT and OPPORTUNITY that the WNBA has EVER HAD, ...to try to actually endear people and more fans, ...and to actually legitimize your league, ....you wont have just ruined a chance at a huge SEA CHANGE OF PERCEPTION OF YOUR LEAGUE, ....but you will TURN MILLIONS OF PEOPLE AWAY FROM IT FOREVER, because they will be disgusted by how it all played out! Fair warning.
Years ago I knew a few women who wrestled in an all female wrestling federation, and they told me that not only was there a lot of woman-on-woman bullying, but if you weren't gay, you were not going to get a big push. Seems like women are their own worst enemies. Bullies never know they are bullies however, of course they deny it.
Yup. Seen this from elementary til this day in every facet of life (work, school, stores, ) man it’s insane how insecure some women are to the point they attack other women just because they are women. Crazy.
Poor CC... Shes so helpless!!! I mean even though she graduated from LeBron's flop class when you just touch her they need to stop " bullying" her the WNBA is supposed to be as gentle as a ballet recital... They better stop forcing turnovers from her😂😂😂
It’s crazy 🤪 how women in the WNBA go any length to tear each other down and Caitlin Clark is a prime example of that. This young woman is literally helping the league sell tickets 🎟️ and increase viewership in a struggling league and this is the thanks that she gets? Diana Taurasi is a decorated veteran who has won championships in college and the pros. Why would she want to be jealous of a rookie for? The WNBA truly doesn’t deserve a once in a lifetime talent like Caitlin Clark.
Maybe this is what you get from a man in a woman's body ..they, the WNBA should put down rules to compensate for this,,and prevent BULLYING and those DANGEROUS fouls
The irony is that if/when CC rises to the top in some capacity - scoring titles, MVPs, championships - it will create a bigger story or storyline for her. “Despite being in a league that belittled her, devalued her, and bullied her…CC rose to the top.”
@@bertjones3010can you think for yourself or just only know how to parrot this same TO talking point like every other NPC? Sure CC averages 6 TO’s (about half due to butter fingers teammates) but about also 7-assists (top 3 total In league currently not just among rookies). Ionescu & other top veteran guards average about 3-4 TO’s by comparison however, which is basically similar to CC (who is a fresh rookie btw)… but these veterans also average less assists and score just about the same as CC (17 pts/ game average currently). NOT much different stats including TO’s for a rookie CC vs. elite veterans (point guards especially). Yet all the NPC W fans like you & W veterans haters love to dump on CC, who is singlehandedly saving W from continued obscurity, low ratings & low revenues. Don’t ever complain again about pay gap disparity when CC proves, people will pay when you’re able to finally provide a good product. Keep up the hate & see where that gets you.
Dude, this is what the WNBA wants. They want to drum up outrage and get people to come out swinging for their new rising star. This is so clearly a marketing scheme.
The fouls to the head need to be called. The fact they are NOT calling those obvious fouls is disturbing. It calls into question the integrity of officials. I’m not sure what her FT % is, 85. Those fouls get called and she slaps another 4-5 pts on tot the score on top of what she already does. Dam!
I continue to be super impressed with Caitlin Clark, not at just how she plays, but at how she speaks and carries herself. She's only 22 and already sounds like a coach.
Taurasi pretty much destroyed her “legacy” by the way she acted when Clark came into the league All she will ever be remembered for is being bitter, petty and small She will be like that golfer that made a “black” joke about Tiger Woods That’s all he is remembered for- is being an idiot Same with her
"Legacy" is correct, since she doesn't have any legacy. No one knows these players, and I am not even sure the WNBA is the best women's league in the world. Most of them play in other leagues to earn some money. The one that are known for their basketball achievements are the ones with great shooting and percentage. Not championships, and of course not "out court" sh@t like being the sister-of, nor being sentenced to death in Russia. They only show how much of a joke they are.
5:34 I laughed so hard I started coughing 😂😂 like girl you better start driving uber on the side because the debt you owe the league is *_SUBSTANTIAL_*
This "Lexie" chick should remember the old expression..."Never miss an opportunity to STFU" In a recent game with the Fever, Lexie tried to put her "Anybody can shoot 3s" theory in practice.....And Blew Every Shot, ending up BENCHED. Turns out everybody can't shoot 3s after all
This past couple weeks, I saw CC handling all this crap like a professional athlete, meanwhile all the other WNBA players acting like a high school teenager, try to be a bully. Smh
Loving how Caitlyn's Dad is on the sidelines checking her daughter like a proud Father but still making sure she don't make a fool of herself. Top G for that
Did he check her when she was doing the Dirty stuff (shoving players down) when she was in College? You know, the stuff that all her Bandwagon Fans talk about and say is Thuggish when it's done to her in the WNBA?!?!?🤔 And before anyone says I'm full of it. She's never done anyone like that. You can very easily find the video Clips right here on UA-cam. 🫡
I remember when the WNBA started. NOBODY took it seriously, and that includes most of the players. The fact its been going for 28 years and most Americans dont even know we have professional female basketball should probably tell you something.
Taurasi is a UCONN legend, but I've lost all respect for her after recent comments. I, too, think Bueckers is a better all-around player - at least before multiple season-ending injuries - and one might expect Taurasi to favor a fellow Huskie, but saying it at that moment, and in such a dismissive manor, was classless. The Olympic Team comment went too far though. "Yeah after I won three national championships in a row." I wonder how her teammates feel about her taking all of the credit. UCONN was a perennial powerhouse before and after she left, and her sophomore championship was with a team that had already won without her. UCONN has been to the championship match 12 times, winning 11; Iowa, only twice - both with Clark, losing both times to STACKED perennial powerhouses. Iowa has been to the Final Four only three times; UCONN, 23. To shade Clark for not winning a title on a historically mid-level team is truly shameful, but it's clear Taurasi has no shame. Self-promotion or bust. What Clark accomplished at Iowa is infinitely more impressive than what Taurasi accomplished at UCONN, and I truly hope the former humiliates the latter when their teams meet in a few weeks.
Yeah. UCONN is pretty much just a super team program most years. Taurasi wasn't even the best player on the team and more like the 4th/5th option according to a breakdown I watched on DKM. She is just jealous of Clark's greatness
Taurasi went to a big basketball program school that recruits all the best high school players, Clark went to an unknown basketball school (that only reached the final four once, in 1993) with unknown players that had only clark in the top 50 high school players. It's sort of like the Magic Johnson team vs Larry Bird's team in college where Magic won due to the overwhelming talent in their team. I would think that Caitlin's feat was a lot more impressive as she brought her overmatched team to the finals twice
Clark has always been generous with her praise for the veteran players, showing she has much more class and grace than Taurasi will apparently ever possess.
My boyfriend took me to a hockey game in DC, The Capitals, last winter. I had never been to a Hockey game before and I enjoyed the experience. I've been to NBA games and Baseball games, but to my surprise that hockey game was cool. A few weeks ago I went by myself to the Mystics vs Fever Game. OMGosh, I just never seen anything like it in sports. There were more people than any of the NBA finals games and that hockey game I attended and it was an away game for the Fever, but over 20,000 people were there. So many cheering for Caitlin. That I have never seen in an away game crowd doing that. I never attended a game when Jordan was in his prime but that must have been what it was like. I once heard old stories of Dr. J and those stories were that in away games fans would cheer for their team, but also cheer for Dr. J and as long as he made some spectacular shot they went home happy. That's what Caitlin is. I spent $200.00 for a 100 row seat, and by the games end I felt like a teenage groupie at a rock concert with my fav band. I don't know if the author of this video has actual attended a game. If not I highly recommend it. The Mystics play the Fever again in September and the seats I purchased a few weeks ago may be $300.00 by then but I don't care I'm going and yes to see one person play. It was the first WNBA game I ever attended. I absolutely won't watch the women's Olympic basketball if Caitlin is not on that team!
It’s unreal how finally the WNBA has a generational talent that’s bringing eyes to their league and they’re upset out of jealousy. For all accounts, she seems like a stand up woman, unreal talent and very kind hearted.
Yea kinda like if you work for a company that make little money they won’t be able to afford raise, hire new people or buy new equipment so you just have to deal with it. Same with WNBA right? Now CC raise the bar with new fame and this should bring new light
They want percentage of revenue in a money losing venture only possible because of NBA subsidies. In other words, they want a percentage of money male players earned.
You're mistaking revenue for profitability. They are two very different things, which is why the WNBA players are asking for share of revenue and not profit.
Diana Taurasi will not be the GOAT for very long. And she knows it. She is not jealous, she is afraid. She knows Caitlin Clark is gonna bury her and her legacy unless she can stop her.
Diana should be professional enough and must welcome Caitlin as to pass the next NBA generation for the sustenance of WNBA. But she did not instead she did not welcome and try to belittle Caitlen. Before I watch WNBA playing in FIBA and Olympic, now i don’t want to see Diana. I watch WNBA because of Caitlen even though sometime they lost, but i enjoy watching Caitlin plays.
In my experience, this is how petty jealous women treat those who are made to feel bad about themselves. My wife was a top-closing leasing agent for 18 years. Every property she worked on the other women treated her like shit because she made much more than any of them. She would average over thirty apartment leases a month while most of the others would be lucky to do a third as well. I consoled her many evenings as she told me how she was treated through her tears. Caitlin Clark is an amazing player and the other players are fools to act as they are. They should be focusing on improving their own skills instead if they were smart.
Caitlin Clark is a world class athlete and has been blessed with a work ethic and maturity beyond her years. Sadly her talent seems to be viewed with suspicion and jealousy even though she is single-handedly raising the game to new height’s never before enjoyed by the women’s league. The hate and physical assaults need to stop.
As a woman who's mostly worked with other women, I've always had great relationships with my coworkers. So, I can confirm this isn't true. See how it works? Only people who agree with statements tend to respond and give the false impression that your statement is universally true.
CC made it through season one without getting her wrists, or knees shattered, or her eyes gouged out by the intentional fouls by opposing haters on several teams. ....CC showed the up by setting records and restoring greatness to the WNBA
Here's one of MANY examples of who was better!!! "Clark quickly moved past Taurasi's record of 61 tournament three-pointers with her signature deep three-pointers. By the first half, she had already contributed three to her tally, sitting at a personal total of 19 points. This shooting prowess is nothing new for Clark, who earlier this season surpassed Pete Maravich to become the NCAA's all-time leading scorer, and she’s the only Division I player in history to amass at least 3,800 points, 1,000 assists and 950 rebounds."
But she threw shade at CC because she had no rings playing at Iowa. So what! DT may have three NCAA titles, but her former team (UConn) got hit with NCAA probation for multiple violations during that period. DT would never boast about that part, I'm sure.
Is there an I in Team? Nope. Diana "won" 3 championships with a stacked team. Caitlin and her TEAM made it to two finals and broke records with what other top picks on that team??? Case Closed.
DT neglects to even mention that there were 4 other players on the court every second, while she was "Single Handedly" winning 3 championships....All By Her Lonesome N She-it
@@dwightcurrie8316And even player #12 who probably has not played a full minute on the game and scored zero point, also can say she won a championship like Taurasi. 😂😂😂
@@homergallardo9650 Exactly Right. CC Played Internationally on the Junior Olympic Team and Won Gold, too It's all Petty, Jealous and Vengeful, Smoke and Mirrors
the matter of fact is, everyone is just jealous of the attention cc gets and tries to steal the spotlight from her by saying some crazy nonsensical stuff u wanna get paid better? cc is doing it for you by bringing more fans and yet you still do some stupid shit to tarnish her idk man is this just woman jealousy🤧
The whole league is going to have to get better or she will embarrass them. In most sports we've seen a single player or team that can change how the game is played. Whether it is Clark, or the Fever, or both... the WNBA will get better and hopefully worth watching.
If it was just “woman jealousy” then they’d keep that energy across the board. It’s not just woman’s jealousy, It’s largely woke identity politics. Like another commenter stated if she was a black lesbian there’d be no issue. I feel like saying “it’s just woman jealousy” is grossly simplifying the matter. Calling them jealous just bc they’re women is super lazy argument at best. But I do agree with the sentiment that they’re shooting themselves in the foot, and it is really sad.
I hope she goes to play in Europe for good, where she will be appreciated. Then I hope the WNBA folds and all the players end up homeless. WNBA delenda est.
The Nike deal is a real sticking point for a great deal of the "more accomplished" players that came BEFORE CC! Usually the perks and recognition that she has already received come from winning/dominating already and not on potential winning and dominating. I would not be happy at my job if a new person, that hasn't landed that big client yet(but got close twice), had the red carpet laid out for them, got a 28-million dollar contract, company started booking staff charter flights, and etc and I get overlooked when I have ALREADY landed clients(Championships on BOTH levels). I am a fan of CC, because she is a good player, but I TOTALLY understand why there is sooo much animosity towards her!
@@ClydeBarnett well they never have understood that they made less money because no one was watching them. Caitlin is the reason people are watching and that's why she got a shoe deal. The greatest player no one has heard of will sell zero shoes.
I have been a fan of Caitlin Clark for some time now and it still disturbs me how much the other players keep trying to hurt her and how many times the officials seem to look away when some of these actions warrant a disqualifying ejection...
You think they'll understand when the boos rain down at the Olympics? The league has publicly destroyed themselves and this is the final straw. Caitlyn will draw fans wherever she goes, the rest of the league will continue sinking. They had their moment, they blew it. This mentality is NOT going to change. Diana Taurasi had a chance to quell everything and call out the dirty fouls and the personal attacks and instead chose herself to attack. It's also the passive aggressive attacks that make me sick. "After I won 3 straight National Championships..." How petty can you be. She's a millionaire, considered by many to be the best WNBA player ever, and STILL has to say that and smile afterwards. It's just sickening.
@@olakunle-dt5ed have you not been paying attention? Go google it, she got snubbed from the Olympic team. Taurasi has several comments on this as well.
Dude you are clueless. This is EXACTLY what the WNBA wants. They want to push a narrative that their new rising star is getting unfairly maligned for being a good Christian white girl, so everyone who never cared about the WNBA before comes out swinging for their new poster-girl. This is a manufactured controversy for ratings and free advertising.
Envy/jealousy is a disgrace... That's why the women in the WNBA don't get the attention they need, because they're holding themselves back! Here in my country, we always say that men, to make friends, just need to say hello and exchange a few words, but women, it's much harder, because there's always a certain level of competitiveness between them! They don't understand that to make as much money as the guys in the NBA, they have to put on a show that's just as good, or even better, and that's what Caitlin has been doing, which is why everyone was watching her games! In fact, most of the people who started following the WNBA only started doing so because of this girl... and she was bringing visibility to others too!
Well, this must be a top to bottom story because why would the wnba admin. allow this back biting juvenile attitude towards a player.? Unless they approved it? Its true because she was left off the Olympic team.
I will say it ! Most of these black B's are racist ! Stop being scared of speaking your mind white people and stick up for yourselves ! I know how alot of these black women truly are cause I am a white man who dates black women and I have 2 mixed daughters
Uconn was championship caliber even before the arrival of DT... CC made IOWA championship caliber when she arrived. CC packed arenas, and DT, you be the judge.
I think it's pretty obvious why they are hating on Caitlin Clark. It's what happens when you go through life with a giant chip on your shoulder and feeling like the world owes you everything, then all of a sudden the greatest talent in the history of your sport turns out to not look like you. It's bitterness and jealousy and it makes millions of us smile on a daily basis! Keep it up, CC!
Biggest talent are you sure I would say most popular does not translate to the biggest talent there are players in the WNBA that are better and that's not saying Caitlan is not good.
Exactly - '"The reason I know who Diana Taurasi is IS because of Caitlin Clark."' That totally applies to me. I've watched every CC game I can find this year. If she gets severely injured by one of those reckless non-basketball-play assaults, then I'm gone. Permanently. Even as recently as Aug 30 vs the Sky, it is still happening.
A bully is a bully-regardless if the bully is gay or straight, black or white, male or female. It is not just the bb players that have bully’s…. The coaches, refs, and owners also play a role of allowing bad behavior to stain their reputation. True professional actions seem to be drastically low in the WNBA.
If we ever need a picture of the word arrogance in the dictionary, Diana Taurasi’s facial expression will due. She feels that being on a three time NCAA women’s basketball championship team, with a HOF coach and loaded with greater talent than the opposition, qualified her to be on the Olympic team, but doesn’t think that Caitlin Clark’s historic accomplishments meet her lofty standards. Caitlin twice led a team of good players to the NCAA finals against teams of five-star recruits. Like all sports, the level of competition in women’s basketball has improved dramatically since Taurasi was in college over 20 years ago. Taurasi should be reminded that basketball is a team game so please don’t act like you won championships single-handedly.
Back then it was UConn, Tennessee and everyone else. Like the UCLA men's teams in the 60's. Taurasi is actively holding back other women. The definition of selfish.
Defund WNBA and Basketball.. Jealousy and Racism is the hole problem. This is a 100% all female not a male. She is also a 100% a baller. She shoots more then 3s. Seen her lay ups are also on point. Free throws are almost breaking records.
@@RB-ib3nf For one thing it would finally force the wnba to sink or swim. They've literally been surviving on welfare for the last quarter century, but constantly complain that they're entitled to bigger paychecks. Hardly anyone even cared about or respected the league until this year, and that is 100% due to the CC effect. Let's see if they can build on this moment, or if they just fumble the ball... my guess is it will be the latter.
@@leebone1 People like you should not deserve to be WNBA fans. If a pritty whie woman had to come in to the league before you were interested, then maybe this is not a fan WNBA needs or wants.
@LEEboneisDaMan what are YOU talking about, I never watched a wnba lame in my life before CC, the other players and their pathetic petty behavior made me despise the league.
If I were recruiting players I'd be searching nationwide in every middle school, high school, and college for more players like Caitlin. She is good for the game. People are tired of all these "mean girls" stinking up the game.
I've been an NBA fan since 1978. Never seeing one WNBA game. Every time I've watched even a small video, the fact is that it was pitiful and hard to watch. Not only were the players non exciting and didn't play at a high skill level, most acted like the worst example of grown women. After watching Caitlin Clark, I'm taking my 4 granddaughters to see her play for sure. Great opportunity to show them what real basketball skills look like and what they don't on the same court. Don't care what it cost!! Get down Caitlin!!!
She already has a ruptured eardrum. I imagine she puts a lot of pressure on herself to play even if she's hurt since thousands of fans have come just to see her, even at road games.

I did a couple sports in high school and WOMEN are very toxic and really aggressive. This was 40 years ago. Again this was high school!! I can imagine what it is at college and beyond Men off the court will go get a drink with their rival for women absolutely not!! Caitlin is humble and professional and off social media. The people who are talking about Caitlin Clark are jealous and need to chill and get better at THEIR game. Lebron, Shaq and Charles Barkley are in Caitlin's corner and they are some of the greats. The referees need to enforce the fragrant fouls
The same thing happens on a professional level. I saw a tennis documentary on Steffi Graf. She said the women dont even speak to each other at all, while the men talk after the match in the dressing room and even meet up later!
I personally feel that the WNBA salaries should reflect their losses and according to their losses they should have to pay to play each game not be paid
@@tingle2330 yeah I guess it was multiple but she was there to play ball not to seel weed in Russia and that's how it sounds when you say she was smuggling drugs into the country she brought a few pens to get a buzz while she was there, at the end of the day she was put in jail and held there because she's American even the Russians don't really give two shits about weed
Who would you rather draft onto your roster? Caitlin Clark or Bronny James?
clark all day
She's a great shooter but nowhere near as good as those who were rookies like ACE, STEWART, MAYA MOORE, SWOOPS ETC. TOO DAMN SOFT.
For the NBA draft? Caitlin Clark!

If anything they should be paying the league to pay. Imagine your company losing around 20m every year for 2 decades and expecting to get paid more 😂

Women can get petty 😭
@@Sniffles69 Definition of entitlement. CC is genuinely impressive and bringing in crowds that will see the WNBA grow and they are so jealous of her that they can't even be happy for the fact that it means good things for all of them.

@@jeffbrooks3832 Sorry this misses the mark, there is some truth to the video but it ignores the actual issue. The reason the WNBA has a problem with Clark is that she destroys the victimization narrative of the league. She proves that the failure of the WMBA has ALWAYS been about the quality of the players not dissemination. They hate her for that.
The reasons
1 Jealousy
2 Racism
End
Cap
Exactly!
You forgot heterophobia
True
Yep. Most important-She doesn't have 4 inch fake eyelashes and 6 inch finger nails so she can't fit in
Caitlin Clark is here to play basketball with zero drama and she's recognized and an inspiration worldwide! A Venezuelan fan here
she need to do what Elvis Presley and Travis Kelce did... reject the GREAT WHITE HOPE📰 mo from media.
Indiana vs Chicago sky .. NIKE is like ....can we get back our $20 millions?
@cinnamonstar808 Clark doesn't seem to pay no mind to that hype, and she will get better and the team will soon be more in tune with each other. As to why you would choose a racist expression is very sad. Nike not gonna take nothing back...who would they give it to?
@@cinnamonstar808 well, she is the greatest thing to ever happen to the wnba, and she's also white, so... if the shoe fits.
@@barrettorth8413but just because it fits dont mean that's the shoes she wearing. She came to hoop and be a legend not uplift white America primarily she will uplift who she uplifts by living by example. She will uplift players of all backgrounds she will uplift all who follow her and are inspired by her not just white people. Think Michael Jordan or LeBron James for example they inspired Luka doncic and Nikola jokic
What is wrong with White people being uplifted?
Black people are uplifted all the time but yet White people can't.
I am really getting sick of this double standard.
“The reason I know who Diana Tausasi is IS because of Caitlin Clark.” Is the most true statement of this entire video.
Who?
"The greatest womens player of all time" never heard of her before Caitlin.
I only know her from UConn.
It just shows you don't follow women's basketball. Tarausi is a far better player now and was a far better player in college than Clark.
@@BruteStrength99 self own? Why are we now following the WNBA? Maybe because there's a player worth watching? Caitlin Clark?
People will remember Taurasi as a bitter old washed up player, no respect 😒
Your assuming people actually know who taurasi is let alone remember her. lol
except she is not washed up she can still ball. and SHE's the one that deserves the respect.

The whole team are immature, jealous, racist drama high school prom queens ..
Caitlin Clark is already the most know wnba player ever, rooting for her
I'm confused though. It's a man yeh?
I would not know who she was if it werent for UA-cam suggesting vids about her. And somebody needs to tweak the algorithm because I have zero interest in sports. But the drama I see in this video is mildly amusing.

@@Shorty_Lickens You have zero interest in sports, what this video is about. You still found time to comment here....
@@Shorty_Lickens Same. I'm a football fan. Liverpool fan. I have never watched a single Basketball game in my life. Don't know why they keep shoving this chick in my face. From what I can gather here this is just a race thing. White people like the white girl...and black people like the black girl. The white girl is obviously also backed by huge PR because...she's white in a sport dominated by black players. So she's like the only shining light for white people. I hear she's pretty good too. Good for her.
It's one thing for a rookie to get played hard but to celebrate a flagrant foul shows a complete lack of character
If someone INJURES HER, ...god forbid ENDING HER CAREER, the WNBA might as well FOLD! Not only will it remove the amazing and positive spotlight the league is enjoying AS NEVER BEFORE, ....it will REVERSE THAT POSITIVE TIDE TIMES A MILLION!

Ive watched more WNBA clips in the last month than i have previously in the last 30 years.
Swear! For me it was slow and gradual but the only times i thought about actually getting a wnba jersey it was either angel or caitlin
Same bro... and all this talk of equal pay and other nonsense without facts. 95% of the viewership of WNBA come from men, women don't even support women sports, which is fine but stop making bullshit ass remarks about people being sexist. WNBA just wasn't fun to watch, hopefully CC changes it.
I dated a woman who played in the WNBA and I had still never seen a single game. Or even a clip of a game. I now know teams and players and have seen several games SOLELY because of CC.
@@gingerbaby5793 so you just didnt support your gf?
@@davis1744 Oh she played long before we met (I’m old). Still wasn’t enough to get me interested. CC however, I love to watch.
Until the players overcome their own jealousy and bitterness, WNBA will never be popular.
Is not just about jealousy and bitterness, most or some of them are lesbian, there behavior and mindset are the problem, thinking to be a lesbian or its okay to act one is not a good role model to our youth.
Diana Taurasi's jealousy is unmatched lmao. She knows she's 42 and looking like a grandma on the court
She might have a crush on her and she knows she can't get that
@omgfun1017 Jealous of what? While I've never been a fan of Taurasi, she does have a career of success to fall back on, while CC hasn't completed her rookie season and her claim to fame at the moment is she's about to smash the season record for TOs. Taurasi is going to the Olympics, so explain what you mean by jealousy. I think you mistake jealousy for someone discussing perspective. A twenty year career vs a few months into their first season.
@@bertjones3010bruh, get off the trans hormones
The WNBA should love her. Nobody really watched it before CC to any extent. If these women deliberately injure her, they can go back to whining about playing in empty, small arenas. If Caitlin is gone the league will just be boring as usual. Maybe they can tout Taurasi and Griner as the face of WNBA, which will attract viewers as in the past. Yeah, right.
@@bertjones3010potential is the difference
"After I won 3 National Championships."
I didnt know Diana Taurasi won those games by herself.
Who?
That team was stacked with FOUR future W players. 4.
And Caitlin broke the all time scoring record.
I didn’t know who she was until I watched these videos
Right. And I've never heard of her either. And the only one I ever knew was BG because they traded her for the gun runner guy from Russia.

Hmm, black lesbian woman basketball player, or, straight white male marine. I mean, the answer is obvious.
As a european all i can say is that i know exactly two WNBA players - 1 is Kelsey Plum because she became a meme recently and 2 is Kaitlin Clark because she's such a talent. No one else gets even talked about so they should better support her
The comment, "Caitlin Clark doesn't need the WNBA, the WNBA needs Caitlin Clark" pretty much sums up the whole situation. And the women in the WNBA better wake up, especially the jealous DT who claims to be the greatest of all-time, she isn't showing much greatness by her words or actions. And as for DT winning 3 National Championships, she wouldn't have won any if she hadn't gone to UCONN, but they probably would have still won those three without her.
You nailed it with your last sentence Randy.
Clarks stats were better in her championship games even though Iowa lost. DT is taking credit from her team and using it for herself.
Who's DT?
Diana Taurasi @@clydekimsey7503
Diana Tausasi is not the GOAT of women's basketball players.
As a professional player, each player should be doing something to contribute to growth of the sport and the league that enables you to make a living balling.
Here you have Caitlin Clark, the one player who can actually elevate the sport and make professional women's basketball financially self sustaining. She is the one chance to actually make the WNBA great. And what does Diana do? Shit on her.
Did the greats like Bill Russell, Chamberlain, Kareem, Dr. J, Jerry West, Bird, Magic and the other mega stars shit on Jordan or Kobe? These guys all competed hard against each other but they did not allow their professional rivalries to hurt the league (the Kareem vs. Chamberlain feud was toxic) but they never fucked up the NBA for the next generation.
Now contrast this with Diana....? She is a 42 year old woman, yet she does not have the maturity to put her ego aside and do what is right for the league and the sport.
Diana Tausasi or whatever this little girl's name is will be cursed and called all kinds of lurid and filthy names by future generations of women athletes when they see that the WNBA fumbled the bag with Caitlin Clark. This little girl climbed the ladder of opportunity for herself but then cut the rungs of the ladder for future generations.
Diana definitely told team USA to take Griner over Clark. She doesn’t want Clark’s attention to diminish her legacy.
These women who are supposedly at the top of their game are simply petty like Charles Barkley said...smh jealousy is real
Diana T. Is a joke...Played when the teams weren't very good. D.T. never played and led anything.
@@Edot300of course she did. And picked her friend Griner (the one who said she would beat an NBA player 1:1, LOL). Hopefully this Tausasisi will leave soon and the WNBA will also start to enforce some kind of conduct code and get rid of that toxic femininity they have
Because women jealousy is crazy ASF and knows no boundaries 🤣🤣🤣
All those WNBA players that say, "I won 3 championships." YOU did not win anything...Your team did.
Have that same energy if or when Clark wins 3 or more championships
Clark isn't winning anything with the worst roster in the league until she arrived. Maybe if they replace everybody, they can't even catch passes
@@johnnylawrence9099give it a few years and maybe they’ll team her up with some other great players. Even Jordan needed experience and a good team to win his rings.
@@darnellroberts8363I’m sure they will because basketball is literally a team sport 😂. Coach Carter said it best when he got moaned at; “oh ok, that’s good. Do you score all the points for the team too?”
Anyone who saw women's college basketball knows that Iowa was a mediocre team, and without Clark they wouldn't have made the playoffs, let alone the finals. How anyone expected Iowa to beat a stacked South Carolina team is bonkers. If Clark had a few really good players in Iowa, she would have had 2 championships under he belt.
This kind of pettiness amongst successful women is very well documented in the corporate world. Successful women tend cut down their peers more frequently than men do. WNBAs issue with Clark are a microcosm for how women treat other women generally.
EXACTLY!!

It's really sad, but I'm glad it at least gives her an opportunity to keep turning the other cheek and playing her game. That can't do anything but make her more endearing in the eyes of anyone not just a delusional or jealous hater of her (who of course just get angrier and angrier like children would when she doesn't respond to their attempts at "bullying" her). She does whatever she can to respond strictly with her game and by beating them on the scoreboard, and I will always respect the hell out of anyone that does that.

I don't fallow sports but seems she could be the Jordan of women's basketball (as far as drawing in positive attention).
Remember the Bill Burr joke about women not supporting one another, just acting? This is basically it. The jealousy and a little bit of racism.
Retirement
On March 22, 2016, Wiggins announced her retirement from the WNBA after eight seasons.[15] Despite being only 29 years old and without a career-threatening injury, Wiggins expressed in a letter about her retirement that she was ready to move on from playing professional basketball.[15]
In a 2017 interview with The San Diego Union-Tribune, Wiggins revealed more about what led her to retire from basketball. Calling the league's culture "very, very harmful" and "toxic to me", she alleged that she had been bullied on the court throughout her WNBA career for being heterosexual and nationally popular. Wiggins added, "I wanted to play two more seasons of WNBA, but the experience didn't lend itself to my mental state." During the interview, she remarked:
Me being heterosexual and straight, and being vocal in my identity as a straight woman was huge. I would say 98 percent of the women in the WNBA are gay women. It was a conformist type of place. There was a whole different set of rules they (the other players) could apply."[16][17]
Wiggins' remarks led to a major backlash from many WNBA players and other sports figures, but she largely stood by them. She did clarify her "98 percent" remark, saying: "It was my way to illustrate the isolation that I felt personally. I felt like the 2 percent versus the 98 percent."[18
Hmmm, sounds oddly familiar but at least Wiggins probably wasn't being sandbagged by her coaching staff.
Jealousy and bitterness is rampant in the WNBA
*racism fixed
But a race war online would generate soo much revenue!
Cat fighting is real. Women cam be vicious
Ok, fine. If there is "an amount" of rookie hazing that goes on, ...then so be it. BUT, ...if these JEALOUS, HATEFUL, BULLYING players are INTENTIONALLY going unnecessarily hard, to the point of violence, ...because they are ignorant, hateful simps, ....then let me just say this, ...IF SOMEONE ACTUALLY INJURES Caitlin, ....or even god forbid, ...ENDS HER CAREER .....EVERYBODY LOSES! The League, the players, the fans, ...EVERYONE! So although I'm not saying there needs to be any "rules" put in place to "protect" her, ....I WILL caution EVERYONE, especially the players and the league ....if you guys screw up the best MOMENT and OPPORTUNITY that the WNBA has EVER HAD, ...to try to actually endear people and more fans, ...and to actually legitimize your league, ....you wont have just ruined a chance at a huge SEA CHANGE OF PERCEPTION OF YOUR LEAGUE, ....but you will TURN MILLIONS OF PEOPLE AWAY FROM IT FOREVER, because they will be disgusted by how it all played out! Fair warning.
*In the entire world of women. Women constantly bring other women down.
Years ago I knew a few women who wrestled in an all female wrestling federation, and they told me that not only was there a lot of woman-on-woman bullying, but if you weren't gay, you were not going to get a big push. Seems like women are their own worst enemies.
Bullies never know they are bullies however, of course they deny it.
Women being mean to women? I’m shocked 😂
Yup. Seen this from elementary til this day in every facet of life (work, school, stores, ) man it’s insane how insecure some women are to the point they attack other women just because they are women. Crazy.
Poor CC... Shes so helpless!!! I mean even though she graduated from LeBron's flop class when you just touch her they need to stop " bullying" her the WNBA is supposed to be as gentle as a ballet recital... They better stop forcing turnovers from her😂😂😂
@@auxaviaircarter4126 clearly you don't understand the difference between playing a rough physical game and assault.
Wahhhhh
I don’t even like basketball but spent today binge watching CC. I know what a screen is now! She has some kind of magic and I hope it’s catching.
Same!
It’s crazy 🤪 how women in the WNBA go any length to tear each other down and Caitlin Clark is a prime example of that. This young woman is literally helping the league sell tickets 🎟️ and increase viewership in a struggling league and this is the thanks that she gets? Diana Taurasi is a decorated veteran who has won championships in college and the pros. Why would she want to be jealous of a rookie for? The WNBA truly doesn’t deserve a once in a lifetime talent like Caitlin Clark.
Can we all just stop talking about race and realize the problem is women 😂
@@gen-xboomerThe problem is A’ja Wilson the “face” of the wnba said it was about race. She should retract that statement and apologize.
@@gen-xboomer unfortunately, it's both.
I wish that it wasn't true, but it is.
Maybe this is what you get from a man in a woman's body ..they, the WNBA should put down rules to compensate for this,,and prevent BULLYING and those DANGEROUS fouls
The irony is that if/when CC rises to the top in some capacity - scoring titles, MVPs, championships - it will create a bigger story or storyline for her. “Despite being in a league that belittled her, devalued her, and bullied her…CC rose to the top.”
Does that rise to the top include a single season record for turnovers?
@@bertjones3010 sure will, but she’ll still be on top, whilst all these racist black lesbians cry in her shadow.
@@bertjones3010have you watched her teammates try to catch a ball 💀
@@bertjones3010can you think for yourself or just only know how to parrot this same TO talking point like every other NPC?
Sure CC averages 6 TO’s (about half due to butter fingers teammates) but about also 7-assists (top 3 total In league currently not just among rookies). Ionescu & other top veteran guards average about 3-4 TO’s by comparison however, which is basically similar to CC (who is a fresh rookie btw)… but these veterans also average less assists and score just about the same as CC (17 pts/ game average currently).
NOT much different stats including TO’s for a rookie CC vs. elite veterans (point guards especially). Yet all the NPC W fans like you & W veterans haters love to dump on CC, who is singlehandedly saving W from continued obscurity, low ratings & low revenues. Don’t ever complain again about pay gap disparity when CC proves, people will pay when you’re able to finally provide a good product. Keep up the hate & see where that gets you.
@@bertjones3010yeah like the other guy said, there’s so many clips of her throwing good passes and her teammates just can’t catch them
Caitlin is just 1k votes behind aja as top fan vote getter in wnba all star. Guys vote for Caitlin and show all wnba who is the face. Caitlin❤
People like you, the fake WNBA fans, should not be alowed to watch games or have any interaction with the league.
Dude, this is what the WNBA wants. They want to drum up outrage and get people to come out swinging for their new rising star. This is so clearly a marketing scheme.
This is why National Hockey League teams have enforcers. Gretzky wasn’t playing unprotected.
they used to. nowadays if you cant put up 15 goals youre useless.
100
The fouls to the head need to be called. The fact they are NOT calling those obvious fouls is disturbing. It calls into question the integrity of officials. I’m not sure what her FT % is, 85. Those fouls get called and she slaps another 4-5 pts on tot the score on top of what she already does. Dam!
Black player fouls white player, gets punished. All the black player has to do is lie to create a scandal. Just as they've already done
I continue to be super impressed with Caitlin Clark, not at just how she plays, but at how she speaks and carries herself. She's only 22 and already sounds like a coach.
Taurasi pretty much destroyed her “legacy” by the way she acted when Clark came into the league
All she will ever be remembered for is being bitter, petty and small
She will be like that golfer that made a “black” joke about Tiger Woods
That’s all he is remembered for- is being an idiot
Same with her
"Legacy" is correct, since she doesn't have any legacy.
No one knows these players, and I am not even sure the WNBA is the best women's league in the world. Most of them play in other leagues to earn some money.
The one that are known for their basketball achievements are the ones with great shooting and percentage. Not championships, and of course not "out court" sh@t like being the sister-of, nor being sentenced to death in Russia.
They only show how much of a joke they are.
What is wrong with making a black joke about Woods? People are pathetically soft these days and need to stop trying to be offended.
5:34 I laughed so hard I started coughing 😂😂 like girl you better start driving uber on the side because the debt you owe the league is *_SUBSTANTIAL_*
This "Lexie" chick should remember the old expression..."Never miss an opportunity to STFU"
In a recent game with the Fever, Lexie tried to put her "Anybody can shoot 3s" theory in practice.....And Blew Every Shot, ending up BENCHED. Turns out everybody can't shoot 3s after all
This past couple weeks, I saw CC handling all this crap like a professional athlete, meanwhile all the other WNBA players acting like a high school teenager, try to be a bully. Smh
it really embarrasing to watch that kind of behavior.... but then again th supossed king also does some little b tamtrum every f game lately
@@robertomarrerog703you somehow managed to talk about LeBron on a video about the WNBA and a comment praising Caitlyn Clark 😭 actual obsession lol
Loving how Caitlyn's Dad is on the sidelines checking her daughter like a proud Father but still making sure she don't make a fool of herself. Top G for that
Did he check her when she was doing the Dirty stuff (shoving players down) when she was in College? You know, the stuff that all her Bandwagon Fans talk about and say is Thuggish when it's done to her in the WNBA?!?!?🤔
And before anyone says I'm full of it. She's never done anyone like that. You can very easily find the video Clips right here on UA-cam. 🫡
I remember when the WNBA started. NOBODY took it seriously, and that includes most of the players.
The fact its been going for 28 years and most Americans dont even know we have professional female basketball should probably tell you something.
"Classy" Caitlin Clark is a True Superstar.
And people say this isn’t about racism
Taurasi is a UCONN legend, but I've lost all respect for her after recent comments. I, too, think Bueckers is a better all-around player - at least before multiple season-ending injuries - and one might expect Taurasi to favor a fellow Huskie, but saying it at that moment, and in such a dismissive manor, was classless. The Olympic Team comment went too far though. "Yeah after I won three national championships in a row." I wonder how her teammates feel about her taking all of the credit.
UCONN was a perennial powerhouse before and after she left, and her sophomore championship was with a team that had already won without her. UCONN has been to the championship match 12 times, winning 11; Iowa, only twice - both with Clark, losing both times to STACKED perennial powerhouses. Iowa has been to the Final Four only three times; UCONN, 23. To shade Clark for not winning a title on a historically mid-level team is truly shameful, but it's clear Taurasi has no shame. Self-promotion or bust.
What Clark accomplished at Iowa is infinitely more impressive than what Taurasi accomplished at UCONN, and I truly hope the former humiliates the latter when their teams meet in a few weeks.
Yeah. UCONN is pretty much just a super team program most years. Taurasi wasn't even the best player on the team and more like the 4th/5th option according to a breakdown I watched on DKM. She is just jealous of Clark's greatness
Taurasi went to a big basketball program school that recruits all the best high school players, Clark went to an unknown basketball school (that only reached the final four once, in 1993) with unknown players that had only clark in the top 50 high school players. It's sort of like the Magic Johnson team vs Larry Bird's team in college where Magic won due to the overwhelming talent in their team. I would think that Caitlin's feat was a lot more impressive as she brought her overmatched team to the finals twice
Taurasi is salty and petty 🤣
well said and very true, Taurasi has jealousy issues
Clark has always been generous with her praise for the veteran players, showing she has much more class and grace than Taurasi will apparently ever possess.
My boyfriend took me to a hockey game in DC, The Capitals, last winter. I had never been to a Hockey game before and I enjoyed the experience. I've been to NBA games and Baseball games, but to my surprise that hockey game was cool. A few weeks ago I went by myself to the Mystics vs Fever Game. OMGosh, I just never seen anything like it in sports.
There were more people than any of the NBA finals games and that hockey game I attended and it was an away game for the Fever, but over 20,000 people were there. So many cheering for Caitlin. That I have never seen in an away game crowd doing that.
I never attended a game when Jordan was in his prime but that must have been what it was like. I once heard old stories of Dr. J and those stories were that in away games fans would cheer for their team, but also cheer for Dr. J and as long as he made some spectacular shot they went home happy.
That's what Caitlin is. I spent $200.00 for a 100 row seat, and by the games end I felt like a teenage groupie at a rock concert with my fav band.
I don't know if the author of this video has actual attended a game. If not I highly recommend it. The Mystics play the Fever again in September and the seats I purchased a few weeks ago may be $300.00 by then but I don't care I'm going and yes to see one person play. It was the first WNBA game I ever attended.
I absolutely won't watch the women's Olympic basketball if Caitlin is not on that team!
Great comment. Thanks for sharing
💯
Good stuff!
Great content I appreciate the detailed and accuracy, love it!
It’s unreal how finally the WNBA has a generational talent that’s bringing eyes to their league and they’re upset out of jealousy. For all accounts, she seems like a stand up woman, unreal talent and very kind hearted.
Women. Sadly women are very envious creatures.
They want a percentage of revenue. So 0% of negative revenue is 0.00$.
They want to be paid 0.00$?? Crazy.
Exactly! The fact that she said that, shows how ignorance and lack of intellect.
Yea kinda like if you work for a company that make little money they won’t be able to afford raise, hire new people or buy new equipment so you just have to deal with it. Same with WNBA right? Now CC raise the bar with new fame and this should bring new light
Even better, if they want that deal make it both ways so they have to pay the losses.
They want percentage of revenue in a money losing venture only possible because of NBA subsidies. In other words, they want a percentage of money male players earned.
You're mistaking revenue for profitability. They are two very different things, which is why the WNBA players are asking for share of revenue and not profit.
Diana Taurasi will not be the GOAT for very long. And she knows it. She is not jealous, she is afraid. She knows Caitlin Clark is gonna bury her and her legacy unless she can stop her.
Diana should be professional enough and must welcome Caitlin as to pass the next NBA generation for the sustenance of WNBA. But she did not instead she did not welcome and try to belittle Caitlen. Before I watch WNBA playing in FIBA and Olympic, now i don’t want to see Diana. I watch WNBA because of Caitlen even though sometime they lost, but i enjoy watching Caitlin plays.
The way she acts she was never a GOAT. just a great player at the right time. it takes so much more to be greatest of all time.
shes no GOAT the world needs to care enough about her performance on the court
To be fair, more of a dog than a goat.............
And to try to stop CC is to damage the WNBA.
In my experience, this is how petty jealous women treat those who are made to feel bad about themselves. My wife was a top-closing leasing agent for 18 years. Every property she worked on the other women treated her like shit because she made much more than any of them. She would average over thirty apartment leases a month while most of the others would be lucky to do a third as well. I consoled her many evenings as she told me how she was treated through her tears. Caitlin Clark is an amazing player and the other players are fools to act as they are. They should be focusing on improving their own skills instead if they were smart.
Caitlin Clark is a world class athlete and has been blessed with a work ethic and maturity beyond her years. Sadly her talent seems to be viewed with suspicion and jealousy even though she is single-handedly raising the game to new height’s never before enjoyed by the women’s league. The hate and physical assaults need to stop.
You know what is funny. CC stats are better than Taurasi stats. Haha😅
Really you people really be dreaming 😂😂

"Don't try to understand women. women understand women and they hate each other" - Al Bundy
As a woman I can confirm this is true 😂
If you are a six in looks women treat ya like shite- Then They run off and get duck lips and fake boobs. Lol.
As a woman who's mostly worked with other women, I've always had great relationships with my coworkers. So, I can confirm this isn't true. See how it works? Only people who agree with statements tend to respond and give the false impression that your statement is universally true.
@nanskiboutski243 if Al Bundy said it, it has to be true 😏
CC made it through season one without getting her wrists, or knees shattered, or her eyes gouged out by the intentional fouls by opposing haters on several teams. ....CC showed the up by setting records and restoring greatness to the WNBA
Here's one of MANY examples of who was better!!! "Clark quickly moved past Taurasi's record of 61 tournament three-pointers with her signature deep three-pointers. By the first half, she had already contributed three to her tally, sitting at a personal total of 19 points. This shooting prowess is nothing new for Clark, who earlier this season surpassed Pete Maravich to become the NCAA's all-time leading scorer, and she’s the only Division I player in history to amass at least 3,800 points, 1,000 assists and 950 rebounds."
Tell me you don't understand basketball without telling me you don't understand basketball
But she threw shade at CC because she had no rings playing at Iowa.
So what! DT may have three NCAA titles, but her former team (UConn) got hit with NCAA probation for multiple violations during that period. DT would never boast about that part, I'm sure.
Is there an I in Team? Nope. Diana "won" 3 championships with a stacked team. Caitlin and her TEAM made it to two finals and broke records with what other top picks on that team??? Case Closed.
DT neglects to even mention that there were 4 other players on the court every second, while she was "Single Handedly" winning 3 championships....All By Her Lonesome N She-it
@@dwightcurrie8316And even player #12 who probably has not played a full minute on the game and scored zero point, also can say she won a championship like Taurasi. 😂😂😂
@@homergallardo9650 Exactly Right. CC Played Internationally on the Junior Olympic Team and Won Gold, too
It's all Petty, Jealous and Vengeful, Smoke and Mirrors
Caitlin Clark is politely showing the WNBA to be utterly full of..... well, you know the rest.
You're an awesome commentator. Fair and balanced! Love your stories and love Caitlin Clark! Thank you! ❤
the matter of fact is, everyone is just jealous of the attention cc gets and tries to steal the spotlight from her by saying some crazy nonsensical stuff
u wanna get paid better? cc is doing it for you by bringing more fans and yet you still do some stupid shit to tarnish her
idk man is this just woman jealousy🤧
You think they'd still be hating if CC was a black lesbian?
@@gideonfyah1hell no bro. The hate is clearly a mix of Racism, Envy, and "Wokeness"
It's just embarrassing to witness
The whole league is going to have to get better or she will embarrass them. In most sports we've seen a single player or team that can change how the game is played. Whether it is Clark, or the Fever, or both... the WNBA will get better and hopefully worth watching.
If it was just “woman jealousy” then they’d keep that energy across the board. It’s not just woman’s jealousy, It’s largely woke identity politics. Like another commenter stated if she was a black lesbian there’d be no issue. I feel like saying “it’s just woman jealousy” is grossly simplifying the matter. Calling them jealous just bc they’re women is super lazy argument at best. But I do agree with the sentiment that they’re shooting themselves in the foot, and it is really sad.
I hope she goes to play in Europe for good, where she will be appreciated.
Then I hope the WNBA folds and all the players end up homeless.
WNBA delenda est.
😂😂 a little extreme
Bye I hope so to because you people hype her up to much
@@CJ2xxVert extreme and quite ridiculous
Wait a minute. With nike deal. Clark makes more money than the entire wnba?
Worth every cent too
The Nike deal is a real sticking point for a great deal of the "more accomplished" players that came BEFORE CC! Usually the perks and recognition that she has already received come from winning/dominating already and not on potential winning and dominating. I would not be happy at my job if a new person, that hasn't landed that big client yet(but got close twice), had the red carpet laid out for them, got a 28-million dollar contract, company started booking staff charter flights, and etc and I get overlooked when I have ALREADY landed clients(Championships on BOTH levels). I am a fan of CC, because she is a good player, but I TOTALLY understand why there is sooo much animosity towards her!
Yea
@@ClydeBarnett well they never have understood that they made less money because no one was watching them. Caitlin is the reason people are watching and that's why she got a shoe deal. The greatest player no one has heard of will sell zero shoes.
nice. good for her shes so good with such a great attitude too.
I have been a fan of Caitlin Clark for some time now and it still disturbs me how much the other players keep trying to hurt her and how many times the officials seem to look away when some of these actions warrant a disqualifying ejection...

Name 10 WNBA players
Caitlyn Clark
Doesn't even spell her name right smh
No one knows who you are either
I can name 10. As of this year. But that's because I'm a Hoosier and Clark has made me want to watch fever games.
Name one that doesn't play better than her.😂😂
She can’t win a game without the other players no one win a game by themselves understand that
i never watch women ncaa and wnba until Caitlin Clark played ....
He is a she.
Watched my first wnba game because of her.
have really enjoyed your content, great work, and super interesting learning about Caitlin Clark
If DT was on that Iowa team we would never know her name! 🤡
She would have been drafted right around where Kate Martin got picked
She is better than Caitlin Clark
Taurasi has 3 rings. Clark might never win 3 rings.
@@rollerphoneshe played at UConn when UConn was winning them chips non stop almost every year 🤣🤣
@@rollerphonebut did she win those rings by herself or with other players.
You think they'll understand when the boos rain down at the Olympics? The league has publicly destroyed themselves and this is the final straw. Caitlyn will draw fans wherever she goes, the rest of the league will continue sinking. They had their moment, they blew it. This mentality is NOT going to change. Diana Taurasi had a chance to quell everything and call out the dirty fouls and the personal attacks and instead chose herself to attack. It's also the passive aggressive attacks that make me sick. "After I won 3 straight National Championships..." How petty can you be. She's a millionaire, considered by many to be the best WNBA player ever, and STILL has to say that and smile afterwards. It's just sickening.
Why would there be boos ?
@@olakunle-dt5ed have you not been paying attention? Go google it, she got snubbed from the Olympic team. Taurasi has several comments on this as well.
Maybe the seats will even be empty.
@@olakunle-dt5edDid you watch the video.
Dude you are clueless. This is EXACTLY what the WNBA wants. They want to push a narrative that their new rising star is getting unfairly maligned for being a good Christian white girl, so everyone who never cared about the WNBA before comes out swinging for their new poster-girl. This is a manufactured controversy for ratings and free advertising.
The wnba tickets/car break in joke was actually funny as hell
Envy/jealousy is a disgrace... That's why the women in the WNBA don't get the attention they need, because they're holding themselves back!
Here in my country, we always say that men, to make friends, just need to say hello and exchange a few words, but women, it's much harder, because there's always a certain level of competitiveness between them!
They don't understand that to make as much money as the guys in the NBA, they have to put on a show that's just as good, or even better, and that's what Caitlin has been doing, which is why everyone was watching her games! In fact, most of the people who started following the WNBA only started doing so because of this girl... and she was bringing visibility to others too!
I never heard of the WNBA before Caitlin. She needs to be on the Olympic team.
That's the point, this is a manufactured controversy to get dudes to pay attention to the WNBA.
Bold face lie lol

😂😂😂facts they mad because she popular and straight
Exactly
@@beachboi6196 'they mad'
Well, this must be a top to bottom story because why would the wnba admin. allow this back biting juvenile attitude towards a player.? Unless they approved it? Its true because she was left off the Olympic team.
@beachboi6196 and white
You’re not going to convince me this isn’t racism(against Caitlin).
But that's the one issue most people won't address out of fear.
@@RichS-jy7sbWe must support our White sisters in the WNBA. White people have to stop being cowards.
I think it's a combination of racism and women being petty and catty.
It’s easy for a racist to spot another racist!
I will say it ! Most of these black B's are racist ! Stop being scared of speaking your mind white people and stick up for yourselves ! I know how alot of these black women truly are cause I am a white man who dates black women and I have 2 mixed daughters
Excellent post.
Terasi didnt get those three championships by herself.
Exactly - Caitlyn led her much less talented team to back to back NCAA finals - if anything a much more difficult feat
Calitin don't have one and she not going to get rookie of the year.😂😂😂
Uconn was championship caliber even before the arrival of DT... CC made IOWA championship caliber when she arrived. CC packed arenas, and DT, you be the judge.
No one wins a championship by themselves. What’s your point??
As a girl myself, women are really personal, but geez, this is a new level of sensitivity with sports.
I think it's pretty obvious why they are hating on Caitlin Clark. It's what happens when you go through life with a giant chip on your shoulder and feeling like the world owes you everything, then all of a sudden the greatest talent in the history of your sport turns out to not look like you. It's bitterness and jealousy and it makes millions of us smile on a daily basis! Keep it up, CC!
Bullsh*t!
Biggest talent are you sure I would say most popular does not translate to the biggest talent there are players in the WNBA that are better and that's not saying Caitlan is not good.
That's an awful lot of words to try and explain away yt supremacist rhetoric
Considering how they are treating CC I would the players are the supremacists numb nuts lol.
Exactly - '"The reason I know who Diana Taurasi is IS because of Caitlin Clark."' That totally applies to me.
I've watched every CC game I can find this year. If she gets severely injured by one of those reckless non-basketball-play assaults, then I'm gone. Permanently. Even as recently as Aug 30 vs the Sky, it is still happening.
I’m from the UK and know nothing about all this - and now I do. Excellent video. Thanks.
So true I had never heard of DT until I started following CC. Have yet to miss any of CC's games. History in real time. I love it.
Great commentary !! Clark is a true pro ! May her light forever shine forever in the WB !! Go Clark !!
A bully is a bully-regardless if the bully is gay or straight, black or white, male or female. It is not just the bb players that have bully’s…. The coaches, refs, and owners also play a role of allowing bad behavior to stain their reputation.
True professional actions seem to be drastically low in the WNBA.
If we ever need a picture of the word arrogance in the dictionary, Diana Taurasi’s facial expression will due. She feels that being on a three time NCAA women’s basketball championship team, with a HOF coach and loaded with greater talent than the opposition, qualified her to be on the Olympic team, but doesn’t think that Caitlin Clark’s historic accomplishments meet her lofty standards. Caitlin twice led a team of good players to the NCAA finals against teams of five-star recruits. Like all sports, the level of competition in women’s basketball has improved dramatically since Taurasi was in college over 20 years ago. Taurasi should be reminded that basketball is a team game so please don’t act like you won championships single-handedly.
Back then it was UConn, Tennessee and everyone else. Like the UCLA men's teams in the 60's. Taurasi is actively holding back other women. The definition of selfish.
Defund WNBA and Basketball.. Jealousy and Racism is the hole problem. This is a 100% all female not a male. She is also a 100% a baller. She shoots more then 3s. Seen her lay ups are also on point. Free throws are almost breaking records.
Well done for keeping it 100✨
And defunding the WNBA accomplishes what?
@@RB-ib3nf For one thing it would finally force the wnba to sink or swim. They've literally been surviving on welfare for the last quarter century, but constantly complain that they're entitled to bigger paychecks. Hardly anyone even cared about or respected the league until this year, and that is 100% due to the CC effect. Let's see if they can build on this moment, or if they just fumble the ball... my guess is it will be the latter.
I think racism is a red-herring. Its just jealous women....... thats how they behave, especially the narcissists
What does 100% female and not male mean....
My dad went from occasionally watching our local wnba team on occasion to watching almost all the games of our team AND the fever. Her impact is huge.
the media📰🗞 like to prop-up the GREAT WHITE HOPE... pick any singer or athlete in history
and these people... end up rich and mediocre at best.
I hope they make the playoffs, really start to gel, and make some serious noise.
The WNBA players are not likable, and neither is the woke and roller ball like basketball play, until CC came along.
So 143 of 144 WBNA players are unlikable? Gotcha.
Dude wtf are you talking about? I came in as a CC fan but I’m learning to love the whole league.
@@leebone1 People like you should not deserve to be WNBA fans. If a pritty whie woman had to come in to the league before you were interested, then maybe this is not a fan WNBA needs or wants.
Clark is a fraudua-cam.com/video/EoJ1FBxW5-A/v-deo.html.
@LEEboneisDaMan what are YOU talking about, I never watched a wnba lame in my life before CC, the other players and their pathetic petty behavior made me despise the league.
if they drive Caitlin clark out of the league they will kill it i promise u that
The difference is assist, rebounds - and hey she has more blocks then angel now.
Now that should be embarrassing for 6’4 post!!
I watch her play and it’s heartbreaking how they treat her, and the officials are almost as bad for not calling it 😢
If I were recruiting players I'd be searching nationwide in every middle school, high school, and college for more players like Caitlin. She is good for the game. People are tired of all these "mean girls" stinking up the game.
I've been an NBA fan since 1978. Never seeing one WNBA game. Every time I've watched even a small video, the fact is that it was pitiful and hard to watch. Not only were the players non exciting and didn't play at a high skill level, most acted like the worst example of grown women. After watching Caitlin Clark, I'm taking my 4 granddaughters to see her play for sure. Great opportunity to show them what real basketball skills look like and what they don't on the same court. Don't care what it cost!! Get down Caitlin!!!
She already has a ruptured eardrum. I imagine she puts a lot of pressure on herself to play even if she's hurt since thousands of fans have come just to see her, even at road games.
Which is ridiculous. She should be taking about the racist attacks and telling the wnba she walks.
What racist attacks?
I actually didn't know any of these people such as DT and others if not because of CC...
I did a couple sports in high school and WOMEN are very toxic and really aggressive. This was 40 years ago. Again this was high school!! I can imagine what it is at college and beyond Men off the court will go get a drink with their rival for women absolutely not!! Caitlin is humble and professional and off social media. The people who are talking about Caitlin Clark are jealous and need to chill and get better at THEIR game. Lebron, Shaq and Charles Barkley are in Caitlin's corner and they are some of the greats.
The referees need to enforce the fragrant fouls
The same thing happens on a professional level. I saw a tennis documentary on Steffi Graf. She said the women dont even speak to each other at all, while the men talk after the match in the dressing room and even meet up later!
the people who started watching WNBA because of Clarke, will easily stop watching WNBA when Clarke stops playing.
I personally feel that the WNBA salaries should reflect their losses and according to their losses they should have to pay to play each game not be paid
“I haven’t seen a female play like her.” “No, me neither” should have been the end of the discussion 😂
Last I watched something about the WNBA was a story about a player smuggling drugs in Russia then complaining about being caught.
It was one weed pen, I'd hardly call that smuggling drugs let's not go over board here she was wrongly incarcerated for being an American
@@ryanbass2458 so you can't call smuggling drugs smuggling drugs? You lying anyway, she smuggled multiple vape cartridges filled with hashish oil.
@@tingle2330 yeah I guess it was multiple but she was there to play ball not to seel weed in Russia and that's how it sounds when you say she was smuggling drugs into the country she brought a few pens to get a buzz while she was there, at the end of the day she was put in jail and held there because she's American even the Russians don't really give two shits about weed
@ryanbass2458 Yeah but it was in fucking russia. You know, one of americas biggest haters?
Who might be a dude
