- Raven Johnson put on an absolute Masterclass versus arguably the best scorer in women's basketball history. After an 18 point 1st quarter performance by Clark, Raven Johnson was able to hold Caitlin to just 3/11 shooting the remainder of the game. Here is a breakdown of every possession.
Through The Lens of a Coach!!
Defense is not for everyone, it’s attitude, skill and just right out want to! It not just running around, it’s knowing when to attack. She did an amazing job moving her feet and being disruptive. One on one defense takes a special person.
You said it the most accurate I've ever read.
Thanks for explain the obvious Sherlock
I guarantee , Raven frustrated the hell out of Caitlin. I would not want Raven coming for me . Raven was relentless, a real “ WARRIOR “ 🥰
Exactly 💯💯💯 Caitlin Clark has no defense. She's in for a rude awakening in the WNBA 😆🤣🤣
Raven definitely put on a defensive clinic guarding Clark. She deserves the Dennis Rodman Defensive Player of the Game Award. Her defense on Caitlyn largely contributed to SC's victory! It's just sad that every media outlet failed to acknowledge this! Raven should be honored!
The media wouldn't do it becasue Raven's not the the great white hope. Great defense by Raven on the great white hope.
That's so Raven!
Revenge tour complete, my girl Raven put them clamps on her 🏆
Iowa fan here. Raven was amazing and I think the biggest difference in the game. I had thought Celeste Taylor did the best at guarding Caitlin this year until Nika Muhl the other night was incredible. In this game, Raven was even better, totally disrupting Caitlin's game.
She totally disrupted the scoring spree of the most prolific collegiate ballplayer to hit the hardwood. You can't "stop" CC. You can disrupt her.
I'm team South Carolina yet CC is poetry in motion as far as skill is combined with basketball IQ and relentlessness.
Salute to Raven Johnson. She came laser focused on defense like a white blood cell.
It’s easy to defend her when she’s the only good player on the team.
Once Clark gets with great coaching she'll learn to slash and move w/o the ball instead of dribble dribble, plus she had no 20 plus scorer in her 4 years which opens up the floor.
@@ABrownVB63 - whatever Clark "doesn't have" is either by design or due to incompetence in recruiting whatever you claim she doesn't have - either way, be it design or incompetence, its the fault of Iowa and nobody else's.
@@seanwright8786 Raven stopped her and Clark IQ can use some improvement she took some horrible shots late and shot iowa out of the game.
Since the first time i saw Raven play i think her defence is unique that she can easily take the ball from the hand of the opposition. Congratulations
Raven Johnson,is the Dennis Rodman,of women college basketball…….. this gal can defend!!!!
Most definitely lock down clamp to your hip defense 😂
Raven Johnson is the best and beautiful
She blessed you all with the blueprint.. defense!! will prove she cant dribble.. tough d on clark she'll turn the ball over alot...
I know that lost last season in the final 4 was devastating for SC & Raven, but SC did the unthinkable & bounced back going undefeated & doing so slaying CC & Iowa. Raven is an undefeated/perfect champion.
Raven Johnson is All time 💪🏿🥊👍🏿🌹🌺🌻✊🏿🪇😘👌🏿✅
Raven dominated Clark. Raven was the better player!
Love it! Congratulations Raven Johnson and the South Carolina Gamecocks #repeattour
Raven should get all of the credit for stopping clark. I don’t know why Clark is getting so much credit when she was shut down by this young lady. Some ethnics groups really try to put up their Cinderella people, even though the Cinderella person got shut down. Lol
👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👊🏽👊🏽👊🏽👊🏽👊🏽👊🏽
Been saying, if you guard Caitlyn she ain't got nothing to give. She has no defense and isn't a great facilitator
And Mulkey knew that CC could be clamped with the right player, and still had HVL guard her (unsuccessfully) for wayyyy too long
Caitlin didn’t have a chance.
If you really watch CC play, you know two things about her game. 1. It hasn’t changed much. Same moves and play style since HS. And 2. Very evident scout. Going left, to step back and shoot, going right all the way to the basket. Earlier in her career she could shoot the mid-range better and had a little same hand pick-up going right for lay ups at the rim. I think a lot of coaches in college just felt that she would beat them so they didn’t bother to really try to lock her up. Dawn Staley and Raven Johnson both mentioned the scout and how important it was to the win.
If I’m CC, I would add the moves she has going left, to her right hand so that things like this won’t happen again. Hopefully she doesn’t get complacent with her current level of success and rely on what she’s comfortable with being that she’s in a taller league with better players that want to expose her.
Great video
Raven did a good job, but she was the 3rd one to guard Clark with tired legs. And she just played a stressful 40 minutes against UCONN. It would be interesting to see them go one on one again. Raven is a good player, and with all the 5 star recruits South Carolina has, they should take it all again next year.
Hey Cap! I just got through watching Joyce in the Jordan Classic. WOW!! MVP and again, out played everyone! As far as Joyce in the staring line up, I don't see it. She will come off the bench and BE amazing just like Lay and Tessa!!!
Raven shut Caitlin down...a GOAT? Hmmm
🔥🔥
She basically rode Caitlin all game. "Nope", all game. She drove on her. Keep your thoughts to yourself 😂😂😂
She aint the gloves daughter for nothin lockdown 🔒
The disrespect lol. The most prolific scorer ever 🤦🏾♂️🤣. Caitlyn took a total of 2,798 shots in her career at Iowa. That's more shots than any man or women’s basketball player. Any decent player would have done what she did.
And Caitlin scored 30 points like nobody guarding. 😂😂
did you watch the vid?
@@whoizbandz😂😂Clearly not
Clark was 10 of 28. Bad!
And she went home with an L. What was the point of playing the game? For CC to score 30 or for her and her team to win the Natty? I’ll wait. 😮
That was before Raven got on that ass take them blind folds off your face
She made 30 and her average is 32 points. What defense are you talking about?
She had 18 first quarter and 12 the rest of the game. She had 30 points on 28 shots. She had 4 turnover and Raven blocked her shot twice. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
😄 😄 😄 😄 😄
The 3 pts in the 2nd
The 4 pts in the 3rd
The 5 pts in the 4th
The 4 steals Raven got on her
The 2 blocks Raven got on her
The denial of the ball by Raven ect ect
Did that clear it up a lil 4 you? 😄 🤣 😂 😆 😄 🤣 😂 😆 😄
She shot 28 and only made 10. That defense.
If you watch all of Clark's 30 points, she scored most of them on Bree Hall in the first quarter. Raven made the difference in the game by substantially showing down Clark for the remainder of the game....she didn't shut her out, but slowed her down, which is what you need to do to beat Iowa
@@waldolydecker8118 3 shots in 3 qtrs that's a shut out. The funny thing is Hall did a lot better rhan she getting credit. She's a big part of the reason Clark was gassed. 18 pts, a Cardoso switch and a Kitts and Hall foul accounted for 8 of those 18. Everybody saw the push that landed Hall underneath the rim that freed up that 3. Just like that you realize you can't charge Hall for no more than 7 pts. Clark hit a deep 3 on Hall and the other two shots look liked fouls to me when she jumps in a fashion that knocks Hall out of the way almost like a charge but it was in tne air. If those wasn't fouls they will be soon.
this isn't a Raven Johnson story or a clinic. It's bad coaching by Iowa's coach. They loaded a screen at the top of the arc when they should have done double screens to get the switch. But that's something Iowa's coach has to live with. Raven is face guarding her and jumping routes, that's someone you hit a double screen on she's off Caitlin. You can tell Caitlin also had no legs by the 3rd quarter, probably emptied the tank in the first and when South Carolina's bench hit 37-0 on Iowa's bench your mentally done down double digits.
Not a masterclass of any sort, just dumb coaching.
Nah a master class
All that sht you talkin bout ain't got nothing 2 do with the way CC got shut down 1 on 1
But hopefully you will be Iowa next coach so you can put your defensive philosophy in effect 😄 🤣 😂 😆 😄 🤣 😂 😆 😄 🤣 😂 😆 😄 🤣 😂 😆 😄
This is a masterclass of excuse making.
@@problactive285 🤣 😂🤣😅YOOOOOOOOO 💪🏿❤️
I agree with you. It is dumb coaching. Dumb coaching by OTHER coaches. Because Caitlin has removes; go left step back three, or drive right and either hesitate putting the defender on her back hoping to get a foul or complete the drive if it’s a clear lane. She has ZERO mid range. Also, she can play NO defense. Although Iowa plays a lot of zone, I never understood why the opposing coaches never put Caitlin in high ball screen against their best ball handler/shot creator, and just go at her every single time. Raven played her exactly like you should. Let her dribble right all she wants, if she happens to dribble left, let her because you know it’s only to create for the step back. She isn’t driving left.
You're tripping, if you're the best player then your game should be that good you know how to create the space required to get your shot, Steph Curry can dribble the ball way better than Catlin Clark and he creates space because he's that great and can shot from half court consistently, he's won 5 NBA championships he does not make excuses Catlin Clark is not that player just because you put her up on a pedestal doesn't make her great she is only playing with the talent she possess and Raven Johnson shut her down for 3 quarters Catlin only scored 7 points, she was tired because of Raven this is a championship game, that's when tired is mental all the great players overcome tired and win championship especially if you're the leader obviously Catlin Clark is not that championship leader, Angel Reese, Kamilla Cardoso, A'ja Wilson, Brianne Stuart, Kelsey Plum all great players Taurasi, Sue Bird great players but they all win championship and used tired as a excuse for not winning, Raven Johnson exposed all Catlin Clark weaknesses that game cut the head of the snake off and you will not get harmed by any of Iowa players, Iowa lost against Angel Reese and LSU and Kamilla Cardoso and South Carolina Gamecocks and Dawn Staley get over that bullshit of Catlin Clark she's a LOSER 2× yall might be disappointed but we are not because the best team and best players won the NCAA National Championship A.K.A. Natty sorry Iowa's fans yall some Loser and the whole world 🌎 knows the truth about Catlin Clark weaknesses because we watched the game😢
No disrespect to Raven Johnson she ain't better than Kaitlyn Clark you clowns can miss me with that
Umm spell check broke?
And no one said she was. But Raven def played amazing D on CC. 2 things can be true at the same time 🙃
You don't have to be "better" than another player in order to play disruptive defense on them for ONE game. What circus you been clowning at, dude?
She's 30 times better than cc cuz she can play defensecuz she can play defense so you can say whatever but let me ask you something who won the championship
Ummm who said she's better? If your sayin RJ didn't LOCK HER ALL THE WAY DOWN You can miss real Basketball Players with that buffoonery
Clark a great scorer thats all
The only reason they won because they got five five stars the University of Iowa has won Kaitlyn Clark you do the math fool
Basketball is a team sport...so what point u trying to make?
Whose fault is it that Iowa only has "won" five star, fool? Yours? Donald Trump's? Israel's? Its Iowa's, fool, lol.
You right, the more talented team won. I believe you think SC should apologize for being too good. So I guess the UConn men’s team should also be discredited as well because they are a great team that just won’t back to back National Championships. Nobody had a problem with Nick Saban gobbling up all the talent in the country and winning national championships all the time in college football. Your argument is ridiculous and weak.🤔
You have to play with the hand you are dealt with. Last time I checked, basketball is a team sport. Every coach has the same opportunity to recruit. Some are better than others in that arena.
One* 😂
