Clarks genius isn't the 3's (which are 4's btw) it's her passing/assists - INSANE!
She doesn’t get enough praise for her passing and assisting abilities! Shes really incredible to watch play, looking forward to see her play in the WNBA too. ☺️
It's both. No woman's ever had her range, and no player has ever been that prolific of a scorer who has also been that great of a playmaker, consistently (and has improved in both) thoughout all of her college years.
She's the only college player ever to rank in the top 50 of both scoring and assists, and not only is she 1st in scoring but is also on pace to 3rd in assists if Iowa doesn't get upset early in the Big 10 & NCAA tourneys.
Caitlyn Jenner Clark is guarded by girls...how much of a challenge is that?
Clark is quickly making us all forget about the ugly narcissism of Megan Rapinoe and the USWST.
Cleans up a bunch of rebounds too.
This was by far , the best sue bird interview ever!! Thank you jimmy did your research ,and is a genuine fan 👍🏽.
Yes, truly.
What
Caitlin Clark having an honorable mention is amazing! Bring her to the show! #22
I love watching Caitlin Clark for her three point shots, her incredible passing, and breaking that wall between the players and the audience and getting them to participate in the game with the team. She is a superstar and complete package.
Agree 💯 👍 Love watching Caitlin Clark.
Ditto
She a college super star but she struggling in the pros. Too much pressure!! She just not athletic as some of those women. Brinks is killing it in LA !!
You simply cannot not like Sue Bird. What a gem.
Love her game, her politics are outside my realm but her opinion should be respected and those that disagree with her have that right too.
Sue Bird is seemingly a balanced headed & genuine human being. Great personality..
No shes not. She has a good front . She's a monster in disguise who hates america, supports blm, antifa and surprising as a jew, supports hamas and as a duel Israeli has alliances with those that want regime change in Israel.
Look what her partner and significant other has publicly promoted, funded and been a spokesperson for. 1) transgender in girls and women's sports 2) taking a knee for the national anthem and burning the American Flag on the world stage 3) celebration of Hamas slaughter of Innocent Israeli women and children who were beheaded, mutilated raped and now held hostsge
Shes a wolf in sheep's clothing
What an incredible career. My family has loved her since she played for the Huskies
How can anyone not love Clark’s talent??? My God!! She is insanely amazing at the sport! Won’t be anyone like her in 3 more decades!
Sue Bird has so many championships, awards, and honors under her belt….plus she’s so damn BEAUTIFUL!!! Howz’ that!
Btw, that was one hell of a clutch shot! 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
One of my favorite players! Cheryl Miller, Diana Taurasi, and Caitlin Clark are also all incredible!
Pump your brakes a bit. Clark did her thing in college, lets see what she can do with the big girls in the WNBA
When Sue Bird and Diana Taurasi were in college, They were phenoms that brought me to watching women's basketball!!
Clark took it to a whole new level.
@@jondough4682 Sue Bird/Diane were in college how long ago...truthfully who cares about that now?? There are lots of players in college?WNBA that are fun to watch. Let the past stay in the past...
@@jackiegammon2065 i say the same exact thing when certain people bring up slavery and reparations.
@@jackiegammon2065 like I said Clark to it to a whole new level.
@@jackiegammon2065 Clark just broke another record
Finally Sue on a night show!! GOAT!
What a BEAUTIFUL Smile,! 🎨 🏀 🐦
☺️☺️😊☺️☺️☺️
I work at a winery and when someone asked me what my what my favorite wine was, I used that "do you have a favorite child" analogy. Without hesitating the guy replied, "yes". Sue Bird is awesome and such a great ambassador for the game and sport.
For me Women's basketball was being played at an Insane level since the 80's when Pat Summit was the best basketball coach on the fricken planet and her team went to War every game!💚💚💚
Wow, very cool interview. Sue is great, and I love how so many women’s players are so supportive of Caitlin rather than being jealous and resentful. Sue calling Caitlin Clark women’s basketball’s Magic and Bird moment is extremely high praise for Clark. 🫡
it made me really happy to see her give her the praise she deserves
For me watching Sue Bird play basketball at Connecticut was the first time I said. Women's basketball is AWESOME!! Ridiculous talent! 💚💚💚
Sue Bird! Thanks for all you continue to do for women's sports. Great to hear about your media venture; much success to you.
I stopped watching when Michael Jordan retired in the late nineties...I started watching basketball a few months ago when Caitlin Clarke was dominating the Big Ten womens basketball games averaging 32 points per game. She has won me over...I'm a Hawkeyes fan and love her team...I wish them the best of luck in the NCAA tournament.
So Steph Curry didn't bring to back to basketball, but Carlin Clark did.
I'm with you. Agree 💯 👍
@@williewalker5051I am also the same I used to watch the NBA when it was Jordan but stopped after he left. Then when curry came along I started watching again but only his games and I also do like as well devin from the Suns but then when Caitlin came along and I saw what she was doing I started watching her games as well.
Two GOATs I have special admiration for not only for their incredible physical skills but also for their great strength of character. One is Simon Biles and the other is Sue Bird. Both of them are class acts.
Sue Bird is a Top 5 WNBA player of All-Time; absolutely love her and this interview!😊
Of all WNBA players no one can surpassed the achievements of Maya Moore, from Middle school, to college, then in the WNBA & U.S. Olympic Basketball!!!
@@domingoliao2724 Disagree, but to each their own.🤷♂️
@@Matt.Savage Agree with your statement,best wishes.
@@donald8354 Thank you sir, appreciate that.
I gotta admit, didn’t watch women’s basketball until Caitlin happened😬 now I know a little about Sue as well.
Sue Bird.... Larry Bird... Both legends
Why is sue bird a legend?
@@kennethschwartz9351 Six championships, five gold medals and 13 All star appearances I think qualifies as a "legend".
Clark has made fans out of women sports critics like no other. It's been fascinating to watch it all.
Paige Bueckers has similarly inspired much love for the women's game. She is returning for another year in college ball.
Exciting.
So well spoken! Just an exciting time in women’s sports and sports in general. Really hope they keep this momentum…especially as Caitlin transitions into the WNBA. The world needs all the positive energy it can get right now. 💪🏼❤️
She’s so beautiful 🥺😭
Title IX produced fierce female athletes & now finally are getting the recognition & accolades they have always deserved💰💪💰🎉
&rebelm256. Lol. Until guys take it over because they “identify” as females. But hey, at least we’ll finally get some “above the rim” play besides those embarrassing rim grazer dunks they always celebrate, like there aren’t 12 year old boys doing it on U-t00b.
Title IX put a lot of women into coaching. We didn’t know much about basketball, but we learned an taught middle and high schoolers the basics. I’ve been a Sue Bird fan since was drafted by the Storm and ran down the stairs for her introduction. She is also great because she stuck with the Storm whether they did well or not. Always a positive team member.
Can't wait to watch her documentary on Netflix
That smile. I can't. ❤
On the back of the T-shirt it should say because of Caitlin Clark😂😂😂😂
Followed Sue here entire career from UConn to WNBA. She is not only an amazing player but an amazing soul. She has been an impact on Women's basketball for sure. Wishing the best of luck to Clark as she joins an amazing league of women and I am sure she will make an impact as well.
Love Sue's hair
We love Sue bird
She and I live just blocks from each other - fabulous talent. Seattle was so lucky to have her!
Sue Bird was and is the greatest womens basketball player of all time!
I so remember that first Huge moment! So fast up the court!
Love Sue🙌🏻 soo excited for this documentary!!
Sue Bird is an iconic player. And a great interview too! Thank you for bringing her on. We look forward to watching our first WNBA games as we follow Caitlin Clark's career.
Sue Bird, so awesome every time she talks.
Caitlin Clark is the absolute GOAT 💯 no player compares to her shooting range except Steph Curry. That’s a fact.
I do watch woman's sports. LSU and Iowa had an incredible game and this was the best basketball game I have seen regardless of NCAA, NBA or WNBA. Women play the game demonstrating the fundamentals of the game and the team play makes the game more enjoyable.
When hearing that a 'Caitlin' broke Pistol Pete's NCAA record for points scored, I knew she had to be some kind of special. Shortly before the 1st round YT caused me to stumble on "Her" the Caitlin History documentary. WOW!!
What I saw was similar to our Bird Man, the Magic Man, Lady Bird, and Air Jordan.of yore. She has a similar fluidity of motion planned for 3 or 4 seconds further in the Future as they and a few others have enjoyed.
In "Her" of her 1st reaction to bullying in a Youth league when she was 5 or 6. A similar aged boy started in, Caitlin finished it. Besides, she has 4 older brothers, I am not worried about Caitlin being bullied in the WNBA. And she has at least 11 teammates, a coach, and a few refs Plus, she is going to be bringing in a lot of new Cash for salaries. Cash talks to Everyone.
Looking forwared to Fever games next Season!
Sue B in the house!! GOAT!!!
Sue bird is one of the best basketball players of all time. Show her respect. ❤ lucky Number five. 💪🏻💯👍🏽
amazing that Sue Bird as great as she isss.... its amazing that she already giving CClark the bird/magic shout out.
Love you Sue! Not only so talented, but beautiful inside and out. ❤
Sick style she is rocking here
Absolutely, just so ultra cool!
After watching this, I googled Sue. She is without a doubt the Female Micheal Jordan; how about a 1 on 1 for charity - Nike needs a Sue Bird Shoe.
She’s 100% on point. Magic and Bird. Clark is bringing notice and viewers.
What the hell are you smoking? Magic & Bird comparison is ridiculous. Also "Women's basketball is on the rise" that's absurd. These people need a dose of reality.
Sue seems very real and humble
Great player. Best part of this interview and others ...is that she is alone and WITHOUT Megan!! Smart PR move!!! ❤
Cool interview with one of the coolest
Seems like part of Caitlin Clark's impact on women's sports is the fact that, even for all of her accomplishments, this is Sue Bird's only appearance on this show so far.
Sue fricken Bird. One of the best ballers AND humans ever. Legend. Gorgeous, smart, undeniable. Who wouldn't want to be one of her best friends?
Cheryl Miller is why I started watching women's bball. Sue Bird is why I kept watching women's bball. Caitlin Clark is why I'm still watching.
Sue Bird visiting Q & D show, Players Tribute, just made me realize how much Women's basketball really has matured. When Kobe Bryant (RIP) attended games and had actually stopped in the locker rooms to chat with the ladies, made it very Special. Congratulations Sue Bird. Your truly a legend.🌹👋🤗🏀⛹♀
Caitlin Clark is really one of a kind basketball player, a true unicorn.
Another example of high-profile Syosset class and accomplishment!
Sue is on another level of beautiful. Inside and out. It's nice to finally see her extroverted lol.
Bigg love for her🐐💕💕💕
Never heard of her,I know Caitlin Clark🐐
I saw a ESPN video with Sue Bird and Caitlin Clark, it looked more like a mother -daughter thing. Are we all sure Sue Bird is not Caitlin Clark's real mother?
Best JF interview I've seen.
I thought she was literally gonna sue the bird. Hahhaha
But you have a great smile!
Sue bird is the best of the role models! Greatest player out there!
Respect!!
Complain all you want but John590 ain’t lying. Caitlin is actually bringing men to watch the woman’s game cuz that’s how good she is.
Clark is a different beast on women basketball she can triple double any game compared to so called elite wnba
She has the right last name for making those winning shots at the buzzer. I recall another person with the last name of Bird doing that on purpose.
I'm addicted to men's college basketball... but I have to say, the Iowa vs LSU Women's game is one of the best basketball games I've ever watched... No question Women's basketball is on the rise... 12.3 Million TV's were tuned into that game!
That was Iowa. Iowa State is a great school, but they are the Cyclone. Iowa is the Hawkeyes
@@jonkrispeterson6678 Edited it, thanks I totally missed that I did that... Been so into the NC State story, both men and women making it to the final 4... I think I'm adding St to every school....lol
@@brucerhodes8197 no worries.
Thank you Sue for what you've done for womens sports. 💜
Everyone? I mean, have you seem the viewership numbers for any women's sporting events that don't include Caitlin Clark? Js.
Love Sue... but hey, please make those shirts available to your friendly neighbours to the North (Oh CANADA🍁) - We're watching WOMEN'S SPORTS this side of the border too.
The future of women in sports all boils down to a 17 year old girl from Clovis, California, her name is Jade Avedisian. Jade is a very talented race car driver, she mainly has been running sprint cars since she was 7 years old and winning a lot of races and championships along the way. This past year she made world history when she became the first woman to win a national midget dirt championship. Jade won the 2023 Xtreme Outlaw Midget Series Championship beating the top male drivers in the series. She just signed a very lucrative contract with Toyota Racing and with the help from Toyota, Jade is making the transition to asphalt racing and Nascar. A lot of famous Nascar Cup drivers and sports journalists are saying Jade is going to be very successful in Nascar and probably be the first female to win a race in the upper tiers of Nascar
Absolutely love Sue!❤
Love Sue!!!!!!
Everybody does. But no one can stand her toxic “I hate America” wife.
Basketball legend Sue Bird 🔥
That's girls basketball legend,
@@kennethschwartz9351 well good thing women’s basketball is basketball, so once again she’s a basketball legend lmfao
Yesssss! Sue Bird!
Ive always wanted to see Sue play, never got a chance to, her and Taurasi were phenomenal
Bird is looking good!!
Sue Bird is the best
Sue is one the greatest lady basketball player of all time. She in the top 5 players
Best interview ! What a beautiful and remarkable women. Let's keep women in women's sports and keep watching ❤
Sue Bird you are beautiful and an excellent basketball player and amazing woman.
2004, 2010, 2018, 2020 (the Covid year); those were her & Seattle's 4 WNBA Championship Seasons! Sue Bird is my kind of Gal! I've been a sports jock 4 ever it seems. Never could play with dolls. I did miss 2004 (with Lauren Jackson); but i got them in 2010 & then in 2018 & 2020 - with the amazing Jewell Loyd & Breanna Stewart! And i don't care if this is sour grapes but i just can't help wondering if they would have had the chance in 2022, to win the Title, but for too much time being put back on the Clock just after Clutch Sue drained that amazing 3 - to put us up by 2. Sure, Chelsea still had to go down & put up that deuce just as time expired, but she shouldn't have even had that much time to begin with. We could have had #5?!!!!! I know, we were still in the Series, but then lost the next game, but still ... I hope your Docu comes on regular Cable some time soon, i don't have access to those other. Darn it! Oh yeah, Clark is pretty good too!
correction.... everyone watches caitlin clark.....
Jimmy needs to book Angelina Jardine who just won the worlds strongest woman contest at the Arnold Classic!
Jimmy Fallon is the next best thing to Jay Leno, what a nice guy
Clark is like Jordan hitting those last second shots and she's exciting to watch so maybe that's why the older retired players are a little jealous of her. Women can be that way believe me.
Very good
❤❤❤❤❤
If Caitlin can’t save the WNBA it’s over for the league.
Sue Goat 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Didn't know Julia Roberts was so good at basketball!
Sue Bird is the GOAT of WNBA. She's a legend 👍
MAN!! The speed going to the shot!!!!!! ⛹️♀️⛹️♀️⛹️♀️⛹️♀️⛹️♀️⛹️♀️⛹️♀️
Thought someone is suing a Bird 🐦🕊️
I thought this was Farideh Sadeghin from Munchies 😅
Married to that soccer broad...bad example for young girls.
sue bird is the one who leads me to play basketball
I have always wondered, is she related to Larry Bird. Great stats Sue Bird.
Bird is more inclusive and self-regarded than Diane and Steward. At least I don’t see she is jealous of CC rather than embrace her and enjoy her play.
