Never underestimate how far a woman will go when she's insanely jealous of another woman... it's actually scary. That's what's happening to Caitlin Clarke.
Growth is coming if shes on the team or not. I don't get why ppl think this is the only year for her to make the team and get ppl to become fans of the WNBA
@@TheRealMrSuperstar08well I mean if you look at a product’s life cycle, I think this year and probably next year is it. Look CC is a product for the WNBA. Everyone wants a piece of it but for now. Development, intro, growth, maturity, and finally decline. I think CC is probably into the growth stage and soon will enter the maturity stage. People get bored easily and her not being the beneficiary is not good for women’s basketball. In my opinion, I think this is it.
@@TheRealMrSuperstar08 YOU ONLY GET ONE CHANCE TO GET AN INSTANT IMPACT. THAT GROWTH IS COMING IS NOT DEFINITIVE. IF IM AN INVESTOR WITH THE WNBA CAITLYN IS ON THE TEAM ASAP. YOU WANT TO WAIT AROUND AND SEE WHAT HAPPENS.

They want to Blindly vote Democrat 200% of the time without thinking and accept Marxist Ideology. CNN, Disney, Wall Street and the DNC use exploitation tactics to control them. Caitlyn Clark lives rent free in a lot of peoples head. It's Pathetic
I am from Asia, I don't watch no women's' basketball. I am only watching Caitlin Clark and the 2 Chinese ladies in LA and Washington. What a wasted opportunity that would have made me watch Team USA women. One more thing. I don't know why the WNBA players are asking for more money. WNBA is not even PROFITABLE. In the corporate world, they will all be cut to keep the company afloat (in this case WNBA).
The WNBA is currently failing an open book test. It's literally a live time display of everything wrong with our women. The Ego is AMAZING. It's like they are not losing money annually. Men will step away. The threat of harm is not worth the effort.
Smaller ball is already the way to go. Lowering the rim would just make things worse because every rim height is the same everywhere. It's not logical at all to have a different height just simply for dunking.
@@braize6279 and the 3 point line is the same everywhere else! And 99% of the balls are the same for grown folk, they already changed 2 of 3 main things to make it easier, the obvious next thing would be to lower the rims so they can also dunk, they can dunk now but barley and only a VERY small amount. Yeah they would have to adjust there shot slightly but if they could poster people and actually slam it, it would make it much more entertaining, people like action and highlights, and that would bring more viewers, that’s just facts and common sense 🤷🏻♂️
Jackal rather make less money and be right about who she thinks are the best players in the WNBA. Even if she’s the only one that really cares about the WNBA she better not be as popular.
The best reason for Clark not to be on the Olympic team is that the other players would likely try to injure her, their animosity and resentment runs so deep they don't understand it themselves.
You are delusional lolol no one hates CC. AR got choke slammed during a game . Do they hate her too ? Its a physical game, but people that think like you want to he victims so bad.
Exactly they hate on her so much so badly they don't wanna hear anything else there are some people in this world that don't want to know the truth because they rather believe their own bulshit and pass that around as the truth... let me say this it's been going on a long time in this country with some people...I'm not just talking about basketball there are certain types of people in this world that have so much hate in there blood they won't acknowledge anything other than their feelings and their feelings are more important than the truth... as a country we got to stop catering to that behavior
@@pecosR0B Team U.S.A. would be the concern when you understand that Clark has made more money than all WNBA players combined over the entire history of the league. Nothing motivates resentment like money going to just one person.
Who are they racist against? Don't say white ppl, because the white girls in the WNBA dont agree. Also people loves Cameron Brink. Caitlin is her own person. Dont force your racist ideals on her. Shes a rookie. not the GOAT
i’ve never been one to defend bron but i’ll never understand when people say “lebron threatened retirement” when the reporter literally asked him what his plans were for the future, bro was just responding to the question

Exactly. Lebron was asked and he just answered. Also with Kyrie he just complimented his guy. So I am confused on "Lebron is being about himself?? Mike is a lowkey Lebron hater and a Kobe Stan.

@oneautumnleaff2119 you are either just playing devils advocate or have never been part of an organized basketball team. I’ll assume the ladder because there is no women in the WNBA that would beat any man in the NBA. They skill gap and athleticism is just that large. I find it hard to believe you’ve actually ever watched both styles of ball if you can come to that conclusion.
I agree with Stephen A. I think because of these negative stories surrounding the WNBA, the truth of the league's toxicity is showing. I think in the long run it's going to turn people away from the league. Most of them will go back to watching the rivalries in the NCAA without the toxicity.
NBA got a personalized defibrillator in the name of Caitlyn Clark. Yes team USA WNBA players got 7-straight gold medals but did not spike up the fanbase. NOW with this opportunity - they COULD HAVE GOTTEN THAT AND MADE WNBA GLOBAL!
I have no choice to watch NBA games if they're on ABC or ESPN but I don't watch the halftime show or watch NBA studio content. I really hope ESPN loses their rights to NBA games at the end of the contract.
Disney just bought the W/NBA rights starting in 2025, and Disney owns ESPN and ABC, so your hopes will go unanswered. 😂 Lets just hope that Disney tells the commissioner to force policy changes that will make us care. (My first suggestion would be uniform changes). There's some cute female players at UNC that I would definitely watch hoop in bikinis.
@@DirtyFolksbanking on Disney to make the league better is pointless. If it were up to Disney, the W and NBA would just be one league because of "equality". They'd remove Adam Silver as commissioner and put a black gay chick in it
If Victor Wembanyama was American, you could bet your newly acquired charter flights that he would make the team. Leaving Caitlin off the team is pure asinine. Nobody can even name more than half of their All Stars for Christ sake. Is Diana Turasi going to play in the next Olympics too when she’s 50!? What a sad clown world we live in.
I can see where you’re coming from but she’s genuinely one of my favorite analysts on ESPN rn and she’s relatively new so I also do think her marketing is “doing just fine.” But to be fair, I also think she hasn’t run a show so she hasn’t suffered the consequences of talking about what she wants to talk about
If they don’t want the rim to be lower because they don’t want to be embarrassed when they get compared to the nba, then why the hell do they play with a smaller ball and why is the 3 point line closer to the rim?
The 3 point line is like 1 foot 7 inches shorter, its not ridiculous. I think lowering the rim is dumb just because of shot trajectory. They would have to spend sooooo much time reworking their jump shots for the lower rim. But Candace Parker was right… “its coming”. You should see some of the girls coming outta highschool, they can dunk! Can’t wait to see them in the W
Their hands are literally smaller Their are NBA players the same height as WNBA players but almost always the hand size to height ratio is completely different
@Stac827 tbh if you a true hooper you can ball on any rim. I'll buss ass on a backyard hoop to a double rim. Adjusting doesn't take long. These women still shoot airballs on breakaway layups. They dont have the strength thru contact.
I am mostly Team-Smith. But Stephen A. was just wrong that CC is not good enough to be on the team now. And that is not my opinion. That is is the opinion of the team. It was insiders connected to the team that said that she could not be on the team because of the way that her fans would react. In other words, the team acknowledged that she actually was talented enough to be on the team. They just barred her for non-basketball reasons. Also, one person on that team will be 42 years old in the olympics. CC already has better statistics than that player NOW. I am nost saying that CC will be have a better career, or is better than that player was 20 years ago, or even four years ago, but, CC is a statistically better player NOW in nearly every single category. Also, another player on the team has not played in nine months due to injury. Obviously, CC is a better player than that player NOW. So, no, I am not going to listen to anyone trying to lecture me that this was a purely basketball decision. Not even the team itself is saying that. This was a decision based on pettiness. That is all.
@mosthated8848 who cares if she is bringing money to the "league".. yall crap on the other women just to big up a rookie. They are only watching for Clark not for everyone else. She is only bringing up her profile despite being on a trash ass team
@GodbodyRoku that is not how it works. I watched because of caitlin and now I watch multiple teams. Without jordan and Nikes marketing there wouldn't have been an international grow of basketball. it's always stars that elevate a sport...
I dont watch the WNBA. never have. I just watch CC. I will watch the female Olympic team (let alone the entire tournament), cause CC isnt on it. MAYBE over the next 10-15 years of CC's career the league COULD make a fan out of me. But just watching how it starts, I doubt it! Unless the league changes, I am not sure I will even follow the Fever much longer like I do right now. I think SAS is a ra*ist, I think that for years. But even people like that can be right (but it is for the wrong reason). If the League does hold those "toxic", petty, jealous wannabe star gals in check and start to promote the shit out of CC, they will waste this golden opportunity!
I watched for i don’t remember but this video on this subject as a commentary to the segment ESPN first take. I mean you always had the delivery but it actually climaxed a couple of notches in this segment of a video. So congratulations that I think this one should be up for an award.
Yep. I was pissed but kind of understood since there were already 2 future HoF Centers on the roster ahead of him (Ewing and Robinson). Still, though, missed opportunity.
Yup. Shaq and Alonso Mourning both were not on the Dream Team. Who took their place? Christian Laettner. Even John Stockton was on the team over those two. All of this is just more reasons to put Clark on the Olympic team. The iron isn't going to be as hot 4 years from now. The WNBA really messed up with this one
It’s ironic though that shaq and Grady suggested to lower the rim so that they could dunk but the reality is, NBA players do more shooting than dunking now a day specially with the popularization of Steph Curry’s shootings, big men doing 3 points, and Caitlyn Clark’s 3 point shootings. So it’s kinda contradicts that people now a days still like seeing rim attack. Rim attack is such uncommon now a days that it’s a treat when you see one. All these 7 footers are now expert of perimeter shooting than rim attack. Caitlyn Clark is famous because of her perimeter shooting not because she can dunk.
ESPN needs to get rid of a bunch of folks. Its a joke watching these clowns. There are a few good people on ESPN still left, but too many folks were fired and the ones who were hired... yeah.... not good.
It's just like what's Stephen a Smith was saying you have to strike while the iron is hot 🔥 I think did WNBA could learn something from Pro Wrestling The Monday Night Wars WCW capitalized having Hulk Hogan Star Power in 1994-2000 Hulk Hogan bought WCW viewership up in 1996-1999 NWO faction change the Pro Wrestling World 🌎 , Hulk Hogan turning heel becoming Hollywood Hogan and NWO merchant dice and WCW viewership went up for 83 weeks, the transformation of The Icon Sting to Crow Sting , WWF at the time was definitely on on the verge of going out of business, Vincent K McMahon had no choice but change the product, the Montreal screwjob of the Of Brett Hart was the biggest shocker in WWF history, the rise of Stone Cold Steve Austin and The Rock and Triple H and The Undertaker and Mankind and other WWF/WWE Super Stars Attitude Era 1997-2002 WWE won The Monday Night War, more 16 million viewers to 20 million viewers ever Monday Night 1995-2001 the Pro Wrestling World has been the same since, WNBA Kaitlin Clark once in a generation super star power, Team USA Women's Basketball doesn't spot for Kaitlin Clark from marketing and business standpoint that is idiotic from WBA and Team USA Women's Basketball viewers and growth of WNBA and Team USA Women's Basketball, I'm agreeing with Stephen A Smith on this topic, because of WNBA might as popular as is right now in the next four years.
Actually if u could get UA-cam unblocked or allow wnba game broadcast in China, Wnba will be more popular since there are two Chinese players playing in W NBA 😂😂wt a waste
Lowering the rim takes away from the history the history is worth keeping eating spinach growing mentally and exercising will improve your hops also read the defense and create out of the blue fast break think instead of concentrate you'll have more rhythm help and recover at the same time they drive and kick the ball out
I definitely agree with you about the SAS-McNutt thing. The problem isn't that SAS didn't talk about the WNBA, the problem is that the WNBA isn't exciting to watch. You can't have exciting commentary about something that isn't exciting. Now that I finished the video, I see that's exactly what they were arguing about in the end.
I think if the bigger media outlets were showing more WNBA highlights 2 to 3 years ago, then it would have brought a bigger audience to all the distant cousins, who would then start talking more about WNBA. "First Take" kinda sounds like a show that starts to talk about things no one else is. Didnt have to be all WNBA, but sprinkled more and more at a time. Love the channel.
no way, its governments and the nba making them money. They amount being spent to advertise the wnba is crazy. After all this spending it will die down again and no one will care for wnba.
WNBA: We want to grow the league.
Also WNBA: we aren’t inviting the leagues most popular player to the Olympic team.

that is not how it works. I watched because of caitlin and now I watch multiple teams. Without jordan and Nikes marketing there wouldn't have been an international grow of basketball.
it's always stars that elevate a sport...
Huh huh huh huh. He said NUT!
I dont watch the WNBA. never have. I just watch CC. I will watch the female Olympic team (let alone the entire tournament), cause CC isnt on it. MAYBE over the next 10-15 years of CC's career the league COULD make a fan out of me. But just watching how it starts, I doubt it! Unless the league changes, I am not sure I will even follow the Fever much longer like I do right now.
I think SAS is a ra*ist, I think that for years. But even people like that can be right (but it is for the wrong reason). If the League does hold those "toxic", petty, jealous wannabe star gals in check and start to promote the shit out of CC, they will waste this golden opportunity!
I watched for i don’t remember but this video on this subject as a commentary to the segment ESPN first take. I mean you always had the delivery but it actually climaxed a couple of notches in this segment of a video. So congratulations that I think this one should be up for an award.
When you're married you'll know what it means trying to prove a point to a woman 😂
Let's be real: Nobody knew there were women playing bball or the WNBA even existed before Caitlin came along.
Factz
That's a stretch
Not true. You knew about it, you just didnt care to watch it
That's a stretch. But even if it was true if they would talk about any other wnba topic other than Caitlin Clark it would be great for everyone.
??
Shaq could've been on the Dream Team?! WHAT?!
It’s true.
Yep. I was pissed but kind of understood since there were already 2 future HoF Centers on the roster ahead of him (Ewing and Robinson). Still, though, missed opportunity.
Yea which is cwazy can you imagine how much they would've won by
Yup. Shaq and Alonso Mourning both were not on the Dream Team. Who took their place? Christian Laettner. Even John Stockton was on the team over those two. All of this is just more reasons to put Clark on the Olympic team. The iron isn't going to be as hot 4 years from now. The WNBA really messed up with this one
Bron just answered the question, the reporter asked him what is next and bron just said that he dosent know
“Oh it’s coming” 😂 the delusion of Candice Parker
Also, also they’re LAUGHING !!!
They’re dead wrong & they know it.
Stephen A spittin facts
It’s ironic though that shaq and Grady suggested to lower the rim so that they could dunk but the reality is, NBA players do more shooting than dunking now a day specially with the popularization of Steph Curry’s shootings, big men doing 3 points, and Caitlyn Clark’s 3 point shootings. So it’s kinda contradicts that people now a days still like seeing rim attack. Rim attack is such uncommon now a days that it’s a treat when you see one. All these 7 footers are now expert of perimeter shooting than rim attack. Caitlyn Clark is famous because of her perimeter shooting not because she can dunk.
I will never watch a WNBA game
ESPN needs to get rid of a bunch of folks. Its a joke watching these clowns. There are a few good people on ESPN still left, but too many folks were fired and the ones who were hired... yeah.... not good.
It's just like what's Stephen a Smith was saying you have to strike while the iron is hot 🔥 I think did WNBA could learn something from Pro Wrestling The Monday Night Wars WCW capitalized having Hulk Hogan Star Power in 1994-2000 Hulk Hogan bought WCW viewership up in 1996-1999 NWO faction change the Pro Wrestling World 🌎 , Hulk Hogan turning heel becoming Hollywood Hogan and NWO merchant dice and WCW viewership went up for 83 weeks, the transformation of The Icon Sting to Crow Sting , WWF at the time was definitely on on the verge of going out of business, Vincent K McMahon had no choice but change the product, the Montreal screwjob of the Of Brett Hart was the biggest shocker in WWF history, the rise of Stone Cold Steve Austin and The Rock and Triple H and The Undertaker and Mankind and other WWF/WWE Super Stars Attitude Era 1997-2002 WWE won The Monday Night War, more 16 million viewers to 20 million viewers ever Monday Night 1995-2001 the Pro Wrestling World has been the same since, WNBA Kaitlin Clark once in a generation super star power, Team USA Women's Basketball doesn't spot for Kaitlin Clark from marketing and business standpoint that is idiotic from WBA and Team USA Women's Basketball viewers and growth of WNBA and Team USA Women's Basketball, I'm agreeing with Stephen A Smith on this topic, because of WNBA might as popular as is right now in the next four years.
If the Celtics win, LeBron gonna be on TV talking about how much he misses being Jayson Tatum running mate 🫢
That was so corny and bron got asked about kyrie he didn’t just randomly bring him up
@@4ransom437 Bron was just answering JJ’s question. Idk if this xeon person was trying to be funny but that was super corny
Even TMZ can't spot 3 WNBA players, but "our marketing is fine"
I’m team basketball and I absolutely love every minute of this
Actually if u could get UA-cam unblocked or allow wnba game broadcast in China, Wnba will be more popular since there are two Chinese players playing in W NBA 😂😂wt a waste
That chocolate woman in red stole my heart 🥰🥰🥰
Good lord, it’s raining hellfire, I agree with something that came out of SAS’s mouth. We are in the end days here people 😂
😂😂😂
Lowering the rim takes away from the history the history is worth keeping eating spinach growing mentally and exercising will improve your hops also read the defense and create out of the blue fast break think instead of concentrate you'll have more rhythm help and recover at the same time they drive and kick the ball out
I definitely agree with you about the SAS-McNutt thing. The problem isn't that SAS didn't talk about the WNBA, the problem is that the WNBA isn't exciting to watch. You can't have exciting commentary about something that isn't exciting.
Now that I finished the video, I see that's exactly what they were arguing about in the end.
Monica McNutt is an awesome Knicks pregame & postgame analyst!
Perk needs some percs
Asking for a revenue share in a league that makes no money is asking for less.
Its just Stephen A. being Stephen A. 💯 When he does this, to me, it comes across like a wrestler cutting a promo.
I think if the bigger media outlets were showing more WNBA highlights 2 to 3 years ago, then it would have brought a bigger audience to all the distant cousins, who would then start talking more about WNBA. "First Take" kinda sounds like a show that starts to talk about things no one else is. Didnt have to be all WNBA, but sprinkled more and more at a time. Love the channel.
Big Perk in his feelings about someone unfollowing him on socials.This is a girlie move
Those segments were the old SAS I used to enjoy from 20 years ago lol Nothing but fire and facts. I miss that version a lot
I keep saying it, same happening in MMA where reporters disrespecting athletes and saying whatever cause there aren't any consequences.
Umbage is real
Love your work Boss...
Much appreciated
The WNBA has fumbled the bag!..😂..opertunity doesn't disappear! It just walks on by....😂😂😂😂
He’s smart he made it seem like the whole point of the video was about Kendrick Perkins and Lebron😭😭
Bro your videos are entertaining
As previously stated, WNBA players didn't complain about the ball being smaller, qtrs shorter, 3 point line smaller!
Guess that’s why espn First Take is a good show! I mean it’s definitely gotten more unhinged with pettiness. It’s hilarious
Perk actually humbled himself tbh and it’s a good point
You can lead a horse to water... But you can't make him drink it 🤷
Stephen is 100% right there no if ands or buts about it everything he said was facts not feelings.
Caitlin making them the money bruh
No she isn't, salaries haven't gone up.
Flight Mike is making money by always talking about her
Thats why they want her to go to the olympics so they can argue on first take for 45 straight minutes
She is making money hand over fist for that garbage ass league the wnba should be thanking her for everything thing she has done for them it’s sad
no way, its governments and the nba making them money. They amount being spent to advertise the wnba is crazy. After all this spending it will die down again and no one will care for wnba.
If they got a percentage of revenue, they would be in debt
ESPN was unwatchable 10 years ago to the people who could see this coming
