I agree that MVP should go to the player who adds the most value, not just the one who excels in stats. Caitlin Clark elevated her teammates, she transformed the team, she got them to achieve what they could not achieve without her. Then there's the fact that her style of play, the combination of amazing passes and scoring from everywhere has awakened in the American public an interest in the WNBA that never existed before. I'm sure the powers that be don't want to award MVP based on celebrity, but it's been Caitlin's style of play, not her Instagram account, that has led to the surge of WNBA popularity. Caitlin has been most valuable to her team, and she has been most valuable to the WNBA
@@lavernebenson2863 Add up the average score + average assists. Then youll see how damn close they are. If she didnt do much, then A'ja also didnt do much.
THIS ABSOLUTELY CORRECT & WHEN YOU HAVE A POOR SPORTSMAN AS ANGEL WILSON STAND ON THE SIDE LINE & CHEERS HER TEAMMATE FOR A FLAGRANT FOUL TRYING TO TAKE CAITLIN CLARK OUT OF THE GAME. SPORTSMANSHIP SHOULD BE ONE OF THE MAIN POINTS IN ELECTING THE MOST VALUABLE PERSON. CAITLIN CLARK WINS HANDS DOWN, BECAUSE SHE DOESN'T RETALIATE. WNBA HAS THE WORST REFEREES & APPARENTLY NOT THE RIGHT OR BEST COMMISSIONER, WHO DOESN'T STOP THE DIRTY PLAYERS. GUESS WNBA FANS NEEDS TO BOYCOTT THE BAD TREATMENT & BAD CHOICES IN THEIR SELECTIONS FOR OLYMPIC TEAM & MVP DECISIONS.
Dijonaise stabbed Caitlin in the eye, no one did a thing about it, and now that the playoffs are over for Caitlin, I get my revenge. I'm not the only person boycotting the WNBA for the playoffs
Depends on who is telling the story about CC.. if a impartial person is presenting facts, then those are the ones to believe, and not this Mumbo Jumbo rhetoric...lol
@@etruscancivilization how ‘bout : “25, 6, &. 9”. THAT IS THE Story - & it don’t matter who is telling it…. (But, 4 the record, I thought this was an OUTSTANDING breakdown….). Peace?….
CAITLIN CLARK by far should have been the Most VALUABLE PLAYER. Just as it means " VALUABLE " to her team, the sport in and out of the court, overall talent, the positive influence she has with the children watching her game (her fans), and what about the monies she's getting the WNBA.? " Go CC go. GO "CC" GO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The fact that the Fever's playoff game brought more viewers than all 3 other games combined because of CC, it shows that just based on the $$$$ alone, she's the MVP hands down. And how the refs are treating her will cause fans to abandon the league because it's garbage.
I've already left because of the Fever's coaching. Nothing worse then watching talent being destroyed. Done with the muggery too. They can all go work in a grocery store.
@@lavernebenson2863 Good point. Her lack of defense annoys me a lot. However, there is no disputing the $$$$$ (TV viewership, attendance & merchandise) she brings to the league as well as all of the clicks on all the podcast channels.
Now if CC could just learn team defense. Of course, what that means is now if the Fever could acquire a coach who even understands what defense is and how to teach it, CC might be able to improve. Christie Sides is one of the worst WNBA coaches. Awful Coaching breaks down time after time how the Fever's defense is among the worst, and how it's due to incompetent coaching. Fever players consistently are lost on defense - even Lexi Hull, their best defender who works like a dog but is still often out of position. Sporadic breakdowns on defense are typically the players' fault, but the whole team always looking lost is bad coaching.
The Fever need to hire Michael Cooper. Larry Bird said Cooper was the best defensive player he faced in his career. Then hire Dennis Rodman as an assistant. Those 2 would have the Fever putting chills down the spines of the rest of the league. Just let Rodman go to Vegas every couple weeks and he'll be there when he's needed. lol Seriously, MC would make a great coach for the Fever.
My question is simple, who cares what the WNBA does?Most people don’t. I’ve never even watched a WNBA game until Caitlin Clark came on the scene. The only thing I’m interested in doing is watching Caitlin Clark and the fever play. They are the only games I watch or care about. The lack of professionalism that I have seen from the other teams and other team players against Caitlin Clark has convinced me that I could give a flying leap about any of the other teams or the Association as a whole. The player, the coaches, the refs…. They’ve all been horrible and petty.
Not a MVP, and not even close.. Some people need only a small amount of information to convince them to believe what they already like believing ha ha.. lol
@@ruthau7999 So in 'honor' of the Fever having a good season and making the playoffs you want to be petty and childish? Wow that sounds like an awful way to enjoy basketball
@@OsirisNeits maybe. It looked pretty intentional and malicious to me, but I don't know if the WNBA has any rules about the penalties, they probably do. Anyone reading this a rules nerd? Wanna look up the WNBA rules about deliberately injuring another player please? I would, but I'm really lazy.
@DJSockmonkeyMusic Of course, CC laughed off the idea that it was on purpose, eternally gracious person that she is, but I watched the slow motion several times, and it looked intentional to me.
@@lavernebenson2863you are an id|ot if you believe someone playing with nails like that didn’t do it on purpose! Why have nails like that when you’re playing a contract sport? You know why! Ghetto ball, ghetto players!
You're perfectly correct. However, if we limit MVP to only consider the player's personal, direct performance in defense and in scoring points, A'ja is the "best". Unfortunately, she also makes her team 'smaller' (this was particularly obvious during the Olympics). The team with her is less than the sum of her and the rest of her team. Clark is the opposite. She makes her team 'bigger'. The team with Clark is greater than the sum of Clark and the rest of her team. And I'll say another thing: - If Clark would concentrate on just personal scoring, she'd outscore A'ja in a jiffy!
I never watched one game til Caitlyn. Then,after seeing how she is treated I stopped watching again. It's too ridiculous so I'm going back to making fun of the league.
I’m fairly sure that isn’t the intent behind M Valuable P, although I believe there would be a few examples in history (potentially WNBA, certainly NBA) where that played a part.
I agree with you, Caitlin has done way more for the WMBA than the player they chose to win MVP. But then I have come to the realization how unfair the WMBA, ESPN , etc. are, so this didn’t surprise me. They tried to take the ROOKIE of the year, too & give it to Angel. Sad!
I wouldn't say Aja is the best player in the World. Like you stated, her team performs better when she's not on the court. The best player couldn't possibly do more harm than good while on the court.
Very odd too if you look into each player on the Aces roster. Everyone is having down seasons. It's because the narrative last season was that Aja got robbed of MVP. So they really made sure she got hers this season, even at the detriment of her teams record and overall play. That's why you see them excel when she's off the floor, they actually play team ball without being forced to give Wilson the ball. My conspiracy side would say it was also a tactic to make sure the rookie didn't win it.
I only started watching WNBA when Clark came in.... my first love was NCAA with Caitlyn Clark and the Iowa Hawkeyes and Paige Bueckers with the UConn Huskies.... If CC ever left WNBA, I'd leave too.
What has A'ja (your MVP?) and the 142 (less Caitlin) more players ever contributed to the WNBA in terms of "values" and "impact" in their entire career? I tell you take a closer look at the hereunder: Caitlin Clark in the MVP conversation: her value and impact to the league. 1. Stats: individually as a rookie & in the WNBA. 2. Influence on the game: Double - triple team, received the most fouls (incl flagrants). 3. Impact: Increase in attendance in every game at home and on the road. 4. Impact on the team: from below to 6th current standing & a playoff team, a floor general for every game both on her team and the All Stars. 5. Consistency: Revitalizing, elevating & helping her team in wins. 6. Narrative: TV Ratings, viewership, most talked in the media, children line up for autographs, popularity, increased ticket sales & price, change of venues. 7. Marketability, increased sponsorships, major endorsements. 8. Involvement in foundations. The "Splash Sisters" (CC & KM) has arrived in the WNBA. Caitlinsanity is real & alive. I am not black nor white, I am Asian from the Philippines.
I was looking for this list because as a ball player stats on the court of very valuable but a player who can impact both increase in viewers and visibility is invaluable. What she has done with her team visibility has to be a team record in the woman’s game. This combine with team and league stats is the total package and why she is being called a generational player.
Your opening statement says it all. Thank you for validating your point with indisputable facts. To point #2 she is the only player I have observed being guarded for 94 feet, body-checked and double-teamed when she crosses the mid-court line.
At the end of the day lest remember it's Most Valuable Player, of the LEAGUE, not of the TEAM. While it's arguable which might be more valuable to their team, there is absolutely no question who is most valuable to the LEAGUE as the one thing that is absolutely agreed upon is the fact that the WNBA is getting the most notice it has EVER had solely on the power of Caitlin Clark.
@@GraceMidyette I completely disagree with this, the first part. The objective of any sport is (hopefully) to win, win a championship. The Most Valuable Player should be decided between players who made the most impact toward their teams’ success.
People hate her for her greatness . These players should be thanking her. She has never ever uttered a bad word against anyone even when she recieved such vile hatred. She's a special player and will continue to excel .
@@GraceMidyette read sambeumont reply he is exactly right and you damn sure are exactly wrong. It has always been a team driven award and almost always goes to a player who led his team to a championship or got them damn close.
@@GraceMidyette I agree with you on who is making the league watched more than ever before. But it’s still not the MPP most popular player it’s the MVP most valuable which is stat driven and for the most consistent player for the whole season not just half of it. CC had a rough start averaged 11 points and led the league in turnovers sorry but that does not get you MVP. She no doubt will win the award multiple times. A’Ja deserved it with her play it was far more consistent from beginning to end.
The 2008 comparison is insane and the stat about the aces dropping for 1st seed twice in a row to 3rd seed this year and the fever making it to 3rd seed is the biggest indicator. Also the fact that the aces have 4 Olympic players is insane. Like common you have a rookie elevating their team to compete against a team that has the biggest Olympic roster.
MVP doesn't mean best player. I wish some people would figure that out. CC took ticket sales from 1.8k to 17k in one year for the fever. That's value! I would have never even heard of the MVP winner if not for Caitlin. Wake up WNBA!
one of the best and most concise videos I have ever seen about anything... Straight to the point, no BS, just stats and an extremely convincing discussion. Very well done.
except the fact that the MVP gos to the player who was dominant from the beginning to the end of the season. He forgot to say CC only averaged about 11 PPG and was leading the league in turnovers and her defense was non existent. The award is for the whole season not half of it. CC will get hers and if it was of half a season award she gets my vote. but it's not. A'Ja was dominant beginning to end. She deserved it this year. CC will get plenty of these in the future.
Good.job, I vote Clark and would like to mention all the positives she has brought to the league!! I'm a first year fan and I must say the lack of maturity the fringe lifestyle brings to the league is appallimg!!!
If we asked the AI overlords this question, they would say Caitlin Clark wins because her team gets more points with her than Asia's does. Most valuable player is about the impact on the team, and points for yourself matter less than points total. It's a TEAM SPORT.
You don't go public making a fool of yourself, crying to get noticed, and that is what Angel Reese is doing because she knows Caitlin Clark is the best player 100%.
Caitlin should by all accounts win the MVP award without a second thought.. as she HAS brought so much "value" to the entire league! I mean just look! the teams are all flying charter flights because of the increased revenue she alone has brought to the league just in the interest in the wnba she herself has generated!
Not about league value, that's a separate thing. What I find odd is Clark broke more records than any player ever in a single season and she's a rookie doing it. She brought a team that's hadn't seen .500 basketball for 103 games straight out of the gutter. That alone makes her case very strong. Not to mention she lead the league in assists and 15-5-5 games. If you examine the Aces roster it's very odd all other players are having a down season. The way it looks is that Vegas believes Wilson was robbed last year in the MVP race. So they force fed her the ball to one make up for last year's snub AND prevent Clark from winning it.
Hey DKM, great video.Thank you... if you could add stats plus gravity are argument would be even greater but not sure how to measure gravity. Seems to me no one pulls double coverage like CC. She is so dangerous that apposing teams must ALWAYS rearrange their defense AND put there best defense on CC and MUST double cover her to hold the Fever back from winning. Thanks again....
IMHO CC should have won both the ROY and MVP, just for her impact on not only her team - but also in filling every stadium she's played in this year to record WNBA attendance. You think the league would have gotten the good TV deal they just signed, or been able to take charter flights without her? No way! Every player in the league, even her haters - owe her! That's "value" folks, and no one else in the league is even close!
I was looking for this list of non player statistics. What? Why? As a ball player stats on the court are very valuable, but ,a player who can impact both increase in viewers and league and team visibility is invaluable. What she has done with her team visibility has to be a team record in the woman’s game. This combine with team and league stats is the total package and why she is being called a generational player.
@@infiniLor why? I dont d ride one player🤣. Real basketball fans know who had the better stats for MVP. Dont need a random youtuber who’s not a sports analyst to tell me why she deserved it. She didn’t win its over with😂😂
CC is the most valuable player of the league with everything she has brought to the league & what she did for her team while getting targeted every game with some type of dirty play!
I wonder if AW was treated like CC with all the TARGETED flagrants and not being called and if she was in a different team if she would be able to do any of that? Seemed like CC had been fighting against the other teams, the refs, the hosts, the WNBA as a whole...
A'ja is a good player don't get me wrong, but Caitlin Clark brought life back to the WNBA and that in it's self should make her the MVP, with all the excitement she brings all the fans she brings in and money to the WNBA leagues. If it wasn't for Caitlin Clark the WNBA probably would have die period!
It doesn't matter what numbers Caitlin Clark achieved she would not have gotten it for a Straight , white, Christian woman to come into the league and get mvp the first year would cause so much hate and discontent from the black players it's not even worth it she's going to rack up so many of them it's going to be amazing. I'll never get tired of her winning.
Only 1 player in the history of WNBA won the MVP as a rookie and that’s Candace Parker who averaged 19 10 & 3 on 52% shooting 42% from 3 while finishing top 4 in DPOY and went on to win a ring to go along with finals MVP. Has nothing to do with her being white or straight. Breanna Stewart is straight and white and an MVP. Turasi another white woman with MVP’s. Clark wasn’t as good as you think she is.
@@marcusjenkins66 If you look at her entire year you know she's the MVP and I'm speaking of Caitlin Clark and she has been hidden and held back since she stepped into college and if you haven't seen that you're not paying attention or you have scales on your eyes and don't want to see what's going on right now the keyword is Christian. You're right she's better than I thought she was going to be. And what's funny Marcus is this is probably the worst she'll ever be she'll have every Meaningful record in the book when she's halfway through her career
@martintimberlake2243 Did you happen to know she lead the league in turnovers as well? Did you happen to see her choke in crunch time? Like jack up half court 3's and turn the ball over. Stats are only one part of the game.
1000% agree with you. To my mind, bringing attention, viewership and ticket sales is the bottomline in choosing the MVP. It is Value and measurable in dollars.
Popularity is not and NEVER has been a criteria in MVP voting! That's IGNORANT! The criteria is based on basketball reasons. What happened on the basketball court. Scoring, rebounds, assists, blocks, steals, PER, Wins, Win shares, etc....... This guy doesn't know what he is talking about!
They can keep that award CC wil get better, 1 a contract with Nike for 27 mil uhmm no one else got that in the WNBA. And more wil come to her. CC is the MVP by miles this year.
It took me awhile because I was mesmerized by Caitlin's cachet and charm. Plus her desire to make this a better place to play basketball. Well sorry Ms Clark as much as I respect your basketball acumen and ethics, I feel the rest of these idiots aren't with you. If anything they want to hurt you. Sorry they just lost my entertainment dollar and it wasn't anything you did. On the contrary, your still there fighting the good fight. But for me at some point I lost interest again. Sad because after many years of not paying attention you caught me in your wonderful web of social grace and awesome basketball skills. However, I refuse to stick around and watch you get hurt over and over again for a league that pretty much is prison style basketball.....no thanks. I like good basketball and this ain't that.
You are so right , I too thinking not liking this particular because of such "silly actions/activities 🙈😳definitely not professionals of women (it's basic to have what is called "ETHICS"), that's why and sport involving mutiple women playing it's so very hard to IGNORE thier sillyness"
That was an amazing take on the actual situation going on against our Caitlyn. I feel the same way. She deserves much better. If nothing else to be in an actual professional environment. She shouldn't have to deal with childish unprofessional women who brings the level of play down. Praying she finds an environment worthy of her contribution to the sport. Go Caitlyn!
you got that right - Stewie got it last year. No way the sisters would have permitted a white player to get it two years in a row. A'ja deserves the biggest mouth award too.
If the MVP in any league was about the actual "most valuable player" to a team instead of just the best overall player then things would look a lot different for all leagues. If it was about the most highly contributing player to team success then Peyton Manning should have won the MVP in 2011 when he didn't play because of injury. The Colts went from 10-6 with him to 2-14 without him and then the Broncos went from 8-8 without him to 13-3 with him. He was OBVIOUSLY the most valuable player in the league as far as team success goes.
Yes. Notice the NBA's MVP example: NBA 2005 Steve Nash Lebron James 15.5 PPG 27.2 PPG 3.3 RPG 7.4 RPG 11.5 APG 7.2 APG MVP NBA 2005-06 Koby Bryant Steve Nash 35.4 PPG 18.8 PPG 5.3 RPG 4.2 RPG 4.5 APG 10.5 APG 1.8 SPG 0.8 SPG 45.0% FG% 51.2% FG% MVP NBA 2006 Steve Nash Lebron James 18.8 PPG 31.4 PPG 4.2 RPG 7.0 RPG 10.5 APG 6.6 APG MVP
Actually i'm not a fan's of WNBA ever since, but when accidentally in Yutube channel I saw how #22 of Indiana Fever play, it's amazing me how great a #22 play a basketball spcly in 3-point area and assist to her team mates...since then I always watching the WNBA because of Ciatlin Clark...thnx God blessed.
YES , the PLAYER'S effect on the TEAM and LEAGUE ... don't forget "CC CAITLIN CLARK has RULES that ONLY ONE OTHER GREAT NBA PLAYER HAD , "its called the "JORDAN RULES" and Jordan is still #1 2024 GOAT, CC also have such a significant impact its called "CC RULES" because of the "CAITLIN EFFECT" ... YES CAITLIN IS THE TRUE 2024 MVP , but like EVERYTHING "inner political power has the winning effect" ... if MVP was voted by "registered basketball players and fans" , CAITLIN Clark akn: CC would have won MVP VOTES BY LANDSLIDE ... do not get me WRONG "AJA WILSON IS NOT ONLY A GREAT PLAYER A SCORING UNSTOPPABLE and DEFINITELY A HOF , but a long time (years) great SUPERSTAR PLAYER ....but let's face it MANY MANY MANY GREAT SUPERSTARS but voting is done YEARLY NOT 2,3, 4, or even 10 years stats/performances performance, voting is done YEARLY PERFORMANCES ... and CC#22 FEVER is unquestionable the "BEST OF THE BEST MVP 2024 WNBA PLAYER" it's so sad WNBA did not select her for the OLYMPICS and NOW another mistake NOT FAIRLY SELECTING CC CAITLIN CLARK by a fair judgements (as a Rookie and surpassing so many BREAKING records and her obvious court performances beating CRAZY WNBA records ... yet they (WNBA) did not ruled/have #22 CC on 2024 TOP 3 MVP ... Another reason wonder WHY WNBA not a popular sport because of all the BS in it ... I hope next season 2025 the WNBA improve , or might be the last 2025 last year i watch WNBA🤷♂️🤔
@@fcguam3939 The only quick way for it to improve as a league is to shed about 2/3 of the noob Clark fans who can't grasp what actual competition and legacy looks like
Catlin if she doesnt get MVP i hope she leaves the wnba and joines another league. wnba has so much to loose on her leaving mayby its time for them to do something about what happens on the court especially against CC
This just goes to prove how stupid the members are who vote for mvp. They can't help it. Bad parenting I'm sure is to blame. At least that'll be their excuse. This is how sad the history books will look in 50 years.
It would be laughable if not so incredibly absurd. I continue to say that these fanboy dilettantes think a pick and roll is something they do with their boogers.
Most valuable? Most valuable for the league in thoughts of income, then hands down it is Caitlin, draw the vertical line and put a dot under it. In head-to-head battles, it is a battle, then Wilson is a better and more seasoned player and is the MVP. In baseball, I admit I didn't watch the WNBA before Caitin, the most valuable player is determined by how well his team performed, usually, and sometimes I just had to hang my head down in disbelief of who MLB's MVP player was. Indiana Fever is here, it is the national team we new viewers want to watch and look forward to watching, and that is because of Caitlin Clark.
CC should have won MVP award for all the bullshit she had to take from players or dikes and also so many no calls by the blind refs. I will only watch when CC is playing and will try to go to some games around the country when she plays. She is a TEAM player!!!!!!!!!!👍👍👍⛹♀🏆🏀🥇
Players, coaches, refs and veterans HATE Caitlin Clark. With a wink and a nod, the WNBA gives the aforementioned the green light to conspire to "Nancy Kerrigan" Caitlin. And then there's Caitlin's teammates who stand around doing nothing. That's because they mildly tolerate Caitlin. What stops Caitlin's teammates from hating her like everyone else is that people now know their names because of her, and due to the skyrocketing fan attendance, they're playing in front more eyeballs than in their entire careers! They like flying Charter, too. Another gift from Caitlin. Then lastly, there's the Fever coach. Terrible! The coach hasn't any idea how to coach a team in the most fundamentals. Phil Jackson could hand-pick 12 of the most mediocre WNBA players and their record would be 40-0.
You don't have to. Clark is the MVP on many, many levels. By the way, A'ja never gets double, or triple-teamed, like Clark. A'ja also has played during garbage time to get the record, travels a lot, and has a special whistle. So, whatever A'ja.
Tell her to stop turning the ball over and to play defense lol and maybe she can get what Wilson has 🏆 wnba and college what have she won if she is so great
Life's not fair. She has had a massive target on her back this year and it would be even worst next year if she had won both ROY and MVP? Remember the league is dealing with emotional and at times irrational women who would cut off their own nose to spite their face.
I compare turnovers in basketball to incomplete passes in football. The fault falls completely on the shoulders (or stats) of the passer when 2 teamates are involved in the play. How many times have we heard this, 'he should have caught that pass, there is no excuse'? Yet the receiver is not penalized, just the quarterback. If the quarterback is sacked for a loss, it is documented on the quarterback's stats. At the same time the fans are listening to the analysts and commentators describe the utter breakdown in protection of the O-line. In these examples all the stats should reflect where the actual problem occured, not the player responsible for only one part of the particular play. Baseball is the only sport that gets it right 95% of the time. Every fan everywhere is disappointed when a pitcher is throwing a 'No Hitter' and a fielder makes an error that loses the 'no hitter'. The stats should reflect the fact, in BOLD letters, that the third baseman cost his pitcher a 'perfect game'. There are playmakers in every team sport, but in most sports 1 player takes the hit for errors made by the entire team. Maybe 'the eyeball test' should hold more validity than it does when deciding awards.
After this, i can see, they gave it to wilson for the same reason they gave it to embid. Cause the other contender was not only just white, but they were anything but black. So they said na, we need to give it to them

Just let Rodman go to Vegas every couple weeks and he'll be there when he's needed. lol Seriously, MC would make a great coach for the Fever.
Without CC on the court the ratings will collapse.
Ratings does not judge a players talents, it only shows more white people are paying to see a white female player, and nothing else. Facts
My question is simple, who cares what the WNBA does?Most people don’t. I’ve never even watched a WNBA game until Caitlin Clark came on the scene. The only thing I’m interested in doing is watching Caitlin Clark and the fever play. They are the only games I watch or care about. The lack of professionalism that I have seen from the other teams and other team players against Caitlin Clark has convinced me that I could give a flying leap about any of the other teams or the Association as a whole. The player, the coaches, the refs…. They’ve all been horrible and petty.
Didn't need it, but you convinced me 4 times.
Wow. Clearly the MVP.
Yup. Crystal. But the main reason she ain’t? Skin tone. 🤔
Caitlin MVP
CC is not even close to being a MVP in the WNBA...waht a JOKE..lol
I have made the same sort of case.
Not a MVP, and not even close.. Some people need only a small amount of information to convince them to believe what they already like believing ha ha.. lol
If FEVER is eliminated, let us boycott all WNBA games. They were robbed when Caitlin was not called foul despite the fragrant poke in the eye.🤮🤮
I boycott you and all the brainded Clark Crew out there.. Go ahead and tantrum your way into a new crusade. You are a joke with no punchline
💯 AGREED 💯 CAITLIN CLARK ABSOLUTELY ROBBED SO 💯YES BOYCOTT WNBA GAMES IF CAITLIN DOES NOT WIN PERIOD🌑 FULLSTOP🛑
Read my mind friend!
@@ruthau7999 So in 'honor' of the Fever having a good season and making the playoffs you want to be petty and childish? Wow that sounds like an awful way to enjoy basketball
that was my thought already; i'm tired of this mess, and if CC is not there, i would be wasting my time.
That eyepoke should be a suspension at very least. Absolutely disgusting, theres no place in sport for that kind of dirty shit.
Permanent suspension.
@@OsirisNeits maybe. It looked pretty intentional and malicious to me, but I don't know if the WNBA has any rules about the penalties, they probably do.
Anyone reading this a rules nerd? Wanna look up the WNBA rules about deliberately injuring another player please? I would, but I'm really lazy.
@DJSockmonkeyMusic Of course, CC laughed off the idea that it was on purpose, eternally gracious person that she is, but I watched the slow motion several times, and it looked intentional to me.
If you can't take a eye poke you to soft for the league
@@lavernebenson2863you are an id|ot if you believe someone playing with nails like that didn’t do it on purpose! Why have nails like that when you’re playing a contract sport? You know why! Ghetto ball, ghetto players!
You're perfectly correct. However, if we limit MVP to only consider the player's personal, direct performance in defense and in scoring points, A'ja is the "best". Unfortunately, she also makes her team 'smaller' (this was particularly obvious during the Olympics). The team with her is less than the sum of her and the rest of her team. Clark is the opposite. She makes her team 'bigger'. The team with Clark is greater than the sum of Clark and the rest of her team. And I'll say another thing: - If Clark would concentrate on just personal scoring, she'd outscore A'ja in a jiffy!
Great video! Caitlin Clark is the MVP !
Just like trump is still the president
💥If the FEVER is eliminated, watch how quickly the number of people watching the games drops.
I'm calling it now, Game 1 had 1.8 million viewers. No finals games will even reach that unless the Fever make a run.
I never watched one game til Caitlyn. Then,after seeing how she is treated I stopped watching again. It's too ridiculous so I'm going back to making fun of the league.
i bet 50% leave, out the door, right away.
You're probably right.
I bet 75% leave.
The only reason 35% of people watch WNBA is because of Caitlin Clark. She is the only reason I am watching WNBA.
Have you seen the rating? It’s more like 75% of the people watch because of Caitlin.
Dude, my grandmother is watching Caitlin Clark . I'm pretty sure it's way above 35%
35,you gotta be kidding me
35% where did you learn how to do math? You should go listen to the Ben Daniel podcast on attendance your numbers will change a bit
I’m fairly sure that isn’t the intent behind M Valuable P, although I believe there would be a few examples in history (potentially WNBA, certainly NBA) where that played a part.
I agree with you, Caitlin has done way more for the WMBA than the player they chose to win MVP. But then I have come to the realization how unfair the WMBA, ESPN , etc. are, so this didn’t surprise me. They tried to take the ROOKIE of the year, too & give it to Angel. Sad!
Nice tour thru the WNBA. Yes, I see what you mean. It makes more sense that CC is Most Valuable player this year.
What a great job you did with the stats I am for caitlyn, Clark, of course!!
I wouldn't say Aja is the best player in the World. Like you stated, her team performs better when she's not on the court. The best player couldn't possibly do more harm than good while on the court.
Very odd too if you look into each player on the Aces roster. Everyone is having down seasons. It's because the narrative last season was that Aja got robbed of MVP. So they really made sure she got hers this season, even at the detriment of her teams record and overall play. That's why you see them excel when she's off the floor, they actually play team ball without being forced to give Wilson the ball. My conspiracy side would say it was also a tactic to make sure the rookie didn't win it.
Do you no basketball she plays both ends of the floor and don't turn the ball over lol
I only started watching WNBA when Clark came in.... my first love was NCAA with Caitlyn Clark and the Iowa Hawkeyes and Paige Bueckers with the UConn Huskies....
If CC ever left WNBA, I'd leave too.
What has A'ja (your MVP?) and the 142 (less Caitlin) more players ever contributed to the WNBA in terms of "values" and "impact" in their entire career? I tell you take a closer look at the hereunder: Caitlin Clark in the MVP conversation: her value and impact to the league.
1. Stats: individually as a rookie & in the WNBA.
2. Influence on the game: Double - triple team, received the most fouls (incl flagrants).
3. Impact: Increase in attendance in every game at home and on the road.
4. Impact on the team: from below to 6th current standing & a playoff team, a floor general for every game both on her team and the All Stars.
5. Consistency: Revitalizing, elevating & helping her team in wins.
6. Narrative: TV Ratings, viewership, most talked in the media, children line up for autographs, popularity, increased ticket sales & price, change of venues.
7. Marketability, increased sponsorships, major endorsements.
8. Involvement in foundations.
The "Splash Sisters" (CC & KM) has arrived in the WNBA. Caitlinsanity is real & alive. I am not black nor white, I am Asian from the Philippines.
I was looking for this list because as a ball player stats on the court of very valuable but a player who can impact both increase in viewers and visibility is invaluable. What she has done with her team visibility has to be a team record in the woman’s game. This combine with team and league stats is the total package and why she is being called a generational player.
Agree
CC our rookie MVP
She plays no d and turns the ball over too much lol
I'm Filipino. Wilson easily the MVP. Her WS/48 is 0.399 compared to Clark's .103. Lol. A'ja's PER is 35. That is more dominant than MJ in the NBA.
Your opening statement says it all. Thank you for validating your point with indisputable facts. To point #2 she is the only player I have observed being guarded for 94 feet, body-checked and double-teamed when she crosses the mid-court line.
At the end of the day lest remember it's Most Valuable Player, of the LEAGUE, not of the TEAM. While it's arguable which might be more valuable to their team, there is absolutely no question who is most valuable to the LEAGUE as the one thing that is absolutely agreed upon is the fact that the WNBA is getting the most notice it has EVER had solely on the power of Caitlin Clark.
@@GraceMidyette I completely disagree with this, the first part.
The objective of any sport is (hopefully) to win, win a championship.
The Most Valuable Player should be decided between players who made the most impact toward their teams’ success.
People hate her for her greatness . These players should be thanking her. She has never ever uttered a bad word against anyone even when she recieved such vile hatred. She's a special player and will continue to excel .
@@sambeaumont395 you are exactly right.
@@GraceMidyette read sambeumont reply he is exactly right and you damn sure are exactly wrong. It has always been a team driven award and almost always goes to a player who led his team to a championship or got them damn close.
@@GraceMidyette I agree with you on who is making the league watched more than ever before. But it’s still not the MPP most popular player it’s the MVP most valuable which is stat driven and for the most consistent player for the whole season not just half of it. CC had a rough start averaged 11 points and led the league in turnovers sorry but that does not get you MVP. She no doubt will win the award multiple times. A’Ja deserved it with her play it was far more consistent from beginning to end.
The 2008 comparison is insane and the stat about the aces dropping for 1st seed twice in a row to 3rd seed this year and the fever making it to 3rd seed is the biggest indicator. Also the fact that the aces have 4 Olympic players is insane. Like common you have a rookie elevating their team to compete against a team that has the biggest Olympic roster.
5 Olympic players
Bro, what a great video.
Caitlin definitely got robbed of MVP, snubbed of the Olympics, beat up every game , she really needs to get outta dodge asap
She needs a better coach that knows how to protect their top players
MVP doesn't mean best player. I wish some people would figure that out. CC took ticket sales from 1.8k to 17k in one year for the fever. That's value! I would have never even heard of the MVP winner if not for Caitlin. Wake up WNBA!
ticket sales have nothing to do with the MVP. Its on the court. Not sales.
A suspicious person might suspect point shaving by the refs.
@@TonySoul Learn to read.
@@strydershadow391 i didnt know MVP meant ticket sales, if that were the case wouldn’t jordan or lebron or kobe have more then they do?
CC is the best player in the history of WNBA.
one of the best and most concise videos I have ever seen about anything... Straight to the point, no BS, just stats and an extremely convincing discussion. Very well done.
except the fact that the MVP gos to the player who was dominant from the beginning to the end of the season. He forgot to say CC only averaged about 11 PPG and was leading the league in turnovers and her defense was non existent. The award is for the whole season not half of it. CC will get hers and if it was of half a season award she gets my vote. but it's not. A'Ja was dominant beginning to end. She deserved it this year. CC will get plenty of these in the future.
CC MVP and will be the GOAT
Good.job, I vote Clark and would like to mention all the positives she has brought to the league!! I'm a first year fan and I must say the lack of maturity the fringe lifestyle brings to the league is appallimg!!!
If we asked the AI overlords this question, they would say Caitlin Clark wins because her team gets more points with her than Asia's does. Most valuable player is about the impact on the team, and points for yourself matter less than points total. It's a TEAM SPORT.
@@CroshVine mvp is a solo award always been shouldn’t change now bc of her
A big mouth doesn't win ROY, and games it's Caitlin Clark's records, and talent.
You don't go public making a fool of yourself, crying to get noticed, and that is what Angel Reese is doing because she knows Caitlin Clark is the best player 100%.
@@DarrylPelletier-qk1wuthis not about her and some how you find a way to bring her up🤣 she lives in your head
Caitlin should by all accounts win the MVP award without a second thought.. as she HAS brought so much "value" to the entire league! I mean just look! the teams are all flying charter flights because of the increased revenue she alone has brought to the league just in the interest in the wnba she herself has generated!
Idiotic take
Not about league value, that's a separate thing. What I find odd is Clark broke more records than any player ever in a single season and she's a rookie doing it. She brought a team that's hadn't seen .500 basketball for 103 games straight out of the gutter. That alone makes her case very strong. Not to mention she lead the league in assists and 15-5-5 games. If you examine the Aces roster it's very odd all other players are having a down season. The way it looks is that Vegas believes Wilson was robbed last year in the MVP race. So they force fed her the ball to one make up for last year's snub AND prevent Clark from winning it.
MVP don't lead the league in turnovers lol
@@lavernebenson2863 biggest casual fan base ever
That doesn't make you a great player lol
Hey DKM, great video.Thank you... if you could add stats plus gravity are argument would be even greater but not sure how to measure gravity. Seems to me no one pulls double coverage like CC. She is so dangerous that apposing teams must ALWAYS rearrange their defense AND put there best defense on CC and MUST double cover her to hold the Fever back from winning. Thanks again....
IMHO CC should have won both the ROY and MVP, just for her impact on not only her team - but also in filling every stadium she's played in this year to record WNBA attendance. You think the league would have gotten the good TV deal they just signed, or been able to take charter flights without her? No way! Every player in the league, even her haters - owe her! That's "value" folks, and no one else in the league is even close!
I was looking for this list of non player statistics. What? Why? As a ball player stats on the court are very valuable, but ,a player who can impact both increase in viewers and league and team visibility is invaluable. What she has done with her team visibility has to be a team record in the woman’s game. This combine with team and league stats is the total package and why she is being called a generational player.
You don't have to convince me. Her elite range of talents puts Caitlin Clark AT THE TOP of every team. She deserves MVP.
Of course yours gonna say that😂 stats prove other wise
Jay needs to re-listen to the video.
@@infiniLor why? I dont d ride one player🤣. Real basketball fans know who had the better stats for MVP. Dont need a random youtuber who’s not a sports analyst to tell me why she deserved it. She didn’t win its over with😂😂
You forgot one MAJOR statistic!!!
I wonder what an impact Caitlin Clark has had on crowd attendance this season in comparison to previous seasons??
CC is the most valuable player of the league with everything she has brought to the league & what she did for her team while getting targeted every game with some type of dirty play!
So very TRUE
CC
Our rookie MVP
Caitlin Clark all day
I wonder if AW was treated like CC with all the TARGETED flagrants and not being called and if she was in a different team if she would be able to do any of that? Seemed like CC had been fighting against the other teams, the refs, the hosts, the WNBA as a whole...
Look at CC's average points/assists/blocks/rebounds per game on games where she was flagrantly fouled. THAT's a stat I'd LOVE to see.
How many turnovers lol show that stat
Why you leave out her turnovers
Great video. Logical argument.
A'ja is a good player don't get me wrong, but Caitlin Clark brought life back to the WNBA and that in it's self should make her the MVP, with all the excitement she brings all the fans she brings in and money to the WNBA leagues. If it wasn't for Caitlin Clark the WNBA probably would have die period!
The new eyes hav seen how bad the W is even with CC. No reason to watch without her
I vote for Caitlin Clark.
CC has also had the biggest impact on getting people to watch the WNBA.
This is the issue with calling it MVP because the intent is the give it to the best player but the best player isn't always the most valuable
It doesn't matter what numbers Caitlin Clark achieved she would not have gotten it for a Straight , white, Christian woman to come into the league and get mvp the first year would cause so much hate and discontent from the black players it's not even worth it she's going to rack up so many of them it's going to be amazing. I'll never get tired of her winning.
Only 1 player in the history of WNBA won the MVP as a rookie and that’s Candace Parker who averaged 19 10 & 3 on 52% shooting 42% from 3 while finishing top 4 in DPOY and went on to win a ring to go along with finals MVP. Has nothing to do with her being white or straight. Breanna Stewart is straight and white and an MVP. Turasi another white woman with MVP’s. Clark wasn’t as good as you think she is.
@@marcusjenkins66 If you look at her entire year you know she's the MVP and I'm speaking of Caitlin Clark and she has been hidden and held back since she stepped into college and if you haven't seen that you're not paying attention or you have scales on your eyes and don't want to see what's going on right now the keyword is Christian. You're right she's better than I thought she was going to be. And what's funny Marcus is this is probably the worst she'll ever be she'll have every Meaningful record in the book when she's halfway through her career
@martintimberlake2243
Did you happen to know she lead the league in turnovers as well? Did you happen to see her choke in crunch time? Like jack up half court 3's and turn the ball over. Stats are only one part of the game.
Angel catching her own bricks shouldn't be award worthy.
Been waiting for this to drop!
Add boxoffice and viewership draw and size of sponsorships the public has spoken loud and clear who is most valuable to them..
1000% agree with you. To my mind, bringing attention, viewership and ticket sales is the bottomline in choosing the MVP. It is Value and measurable in dollars.
Popularity is not and NEVER has been a criteria in MVP voting! That's IGNORANT! The criteria is based on basketball reasons. What happened on the basketball court. Scoring, rebounds, assists, blocks, steals, PER, Wins, Win shares, etc....... This guy doesn't know what he is talking about!
You didn't have to convince me, I already knew!
They can keep that award CC wil get better, 1 a contract with Nike for 27 mil uhmm no one else got that in the
WNBA. And more wil come to her. CC is the MVP by miles this year.
LOSER😂😂😂
Excellent argument and presentation. You convinced me!
CC is the MVP...
Great arguments. I always thought CC deserved it more, so thanks for substantiating that. 🙂
It took me awhile because I was mesmerized by Caitlin's cachet and charm. Plus her desire to make this a better place to play basketball. Well sorry Ms Clark as much as I respect your basketball acumen and ethics, I feel the rest of these idiots aren't with you. If anything they want to hurt you. Sorry they just lost my entertainment dollar and it wasn't anything you did. On the contrary, your still there fighting the good fight. But for me at some point I lost interest again. Sad because after many years of not paying attention you caught me in your wonderful web of social grace and awesome basketball skills. However, I refuse to stick around and watch you get hurt over and over again for a league that pretty much is prison style basketball.....no thanks. I like good basketball and this ain't that.
You are so right , I too thinking not liking this particular because of such "silly actions/activities 🙈😳definitely not professionals of women (it's basic to have what is called "ETHICS"), that's why and sport involving mutiple women playing it's so very hard to IGNORE thier sillyness"
Idk 2025 might only go 1/4 or 25% watch the season if PROFESSIONALISM is not pratiice in WNBA🤷♂️🤔
That was an amazing take on the actual situation going on against our Caitlyn. I feel the same way. She deserves much better. If nothing else to be in an actual professional environment. She shouldn't have to deal with childish unprofessional women who brings the level of play down. Praying she finds an environment worthy of her contribution to the sport. Go Caitlyn!
You don’t have to convince me Bro.
Only New here because of CC NEVER HEARD OF WNBA NOR Hear of a Wilson hmmm go figure
Yes, very good argument. I'm convinced
They wanted a black woman as MVP. That's it. They think basketball invented by blacks or something. MVP lost it's meaning
Wilson was picked way before the break . for CC not to be 2/3 is another reason MVP mean's nothing.
I was thinking that was the only difference but wasn't game to say it.
@@gcujimmy💯🎯
MVP for what? Stats wise in a season CC clearly wins. Audience should vote to see if CC has no effect in attendance, sales, etc.
you got that right - Stewie got it last year. No way the sisters would have permitted a white player to get it two years in a row. A'ja deserves the biggest mouth award too.
Yup. Well done sir.
If the MVP in any league was about the actual "most valuable player" to a team instead of just the best overall player then things would look a lot different for all leagues.
If it was about the most highly contributing player to team success then Peyton Manning should have won the MVP in 2011 when he didn't play because of injury. The Colts went from 10-6 with him to 2-14 without him and then the Broncos went from 8-8 without him to 13-3 with him. He was OBVIOUSLY the most valuable player in the league as far as team success goes.
Yes. Notice the NBA's MVP example:
NBA 2005
Steve Nash Lebron James
15.5 PPG 27.2 PPG
3.3 RPG 7.4 RPG
11.5 APG 7.2 APG
MVP
NBA 2005-06
Koby Bryant Steve Nash
35.4 PPG 18.8 PPG
5.3 RPG 4.2 RPG
4.5 APG 10.5 APG
1.8 SPG 0.8 SPG
45.0% FG% 51.2% FG%
MVP
NBA 2006
Steve Nash Lebron James
18.8 PPG 31.4 PPG
4.2 RPG 7.0 RPG
10.5 APG 6.6 APG
MVP
I agree ☝️

Actually i'm not a fan's of WNBA ever since, but when accidentally in Yutube channel I saw how #22 of Indiana Fever play, it's amazing me how great a #22 play a basketball spcly in 3-point area and assist to her team mates...since then I always watching the WNBA because of Ciatlin Clark...thnx God blessed.
…and how/why did Lexie Hull improve her 3-point average this year.? Suppose CC gave her a few pointers.? Jest sayin’.
FACTS! I've already been saying the same thing.
Caitlin. And you didn't even bring up the charter air flights the entire league enjoyed because of CC.
CC, Without a DOUBT!!
MVP should be statistics + value to the team + value to the league + overall impact to the sport. CC is it!
Lol... This video would have popped a lil bit if she didn't go 2 - 194 in game 1
Go sit down Clarence. This is the playoffs lol
YES , the PLAYER'S effect on the TEAM and LEAGUE ... don't forget "CC CAITLIN CLARK has RULES that ONLY ONE OTHER GREAT NBA PLAYER HAD , "its called the "JORDAN RULES" and Jordan is still #1 2024 GOAT, CC also have such a significant impact its called "CC RULES" because of the "CAITLIN EFFECT" ... YES CAITLIN IS THE TRUE 2024 MVP , but like EVERYTHING "inner political power has the winning effect" ... if MVP was voted by "registered basketball players and fans" , CAITLIN Clark akn: CC would have won MVP VOTES BY LANDSLIDE ... do not get me WRONG "AJA WILSON IS NOT ONLY A GREAT PLAYER A SCORING UNSTOPPABLE and DEFINITELY A HOF , but a long time (years) great SUPERSTAR PLAYER ....but let's face it MANY MANY MANY GREAT SUPERSTARS but voting is done YEARLY NOT 2,3, 4, or even 10 years stats/performances performance, voting is done YEARLY PERFORMANCES ... and CC#22 FEVER is unquestionable the "BEST OF THE BEST MVP 2024 WNBA PLAYER" it's so sad WNBA did not select her for the OLYMPICS and NOW another mistake NOT FAIRLY SELECTING CC CAITLIN CLARK by a fair judgements (as a Rookie and surpassing so many BREAKING records and her obvious court performances beating CRAZY WNBA records ... yet they (WNBA) did not ruled/have #22 CC on 2024 TOP 3 MVP ...

If the fever lose let show the wnba that the only reason we watch the wnba is because of Clark boycott them no raise for the woke
Caitlin is definitely the only reason I watch the WMBA
Most valuable? Most valuable for the league in thoughts of income, then hands down it is Caitlin, draw the vertical line and put a dot under it. In head-to-head battles, it is a battle, then Wilson is a better and more seasoned player and is the MVP. In baseball, I admit I didn't watch the WNBA before Caitin, the most valuable player is determined by how well his team performed, usually, and sometimes I just had to hang my head down in disbelief of who MLB's MVP player was. Indiana Fever is here, it is the national team we new viewers want to watch and look forward to watching, and that is because of Caitlin Clark.
CC should have won MVP award for all the bullshit she had to take from players or dikes and also so many no calls by the blind refs. I will only watch when CC is playing and will try to go to some games around the country when she plays. She is a TEAM player!!!!!!!!!!👍👍👍⛹♀🏆🏀🥇
Caitlin
Players, coaches, refs and veterans HATE Caitlin Clark. With a wink and a nod, the WNBA gives the aforementioned the green light to conspire to "Nancy Kerrigan" Caitlin. And then there's Caitlin's teammates who stand around doing nothing. That's because they mildly tolerate Caitlin. What stops Caitlin's teammates from hating her like everyone else is that people now know their names because of her, and due to the skyrocketing fan attendance, they're playing in front more eyeballs than in their entire careers! They like flying Charter, too. Another gift from Caitlin. Then lastly, there's the Fever coach. Terrible! The coach hasn't any idea how to coach a team in the most fundamentals. Phil Jackson could hand-pick 12 of the most mediocre WNBA players and their record would be 40-0.
i concur CC all day long bradah
Great factual breakdown. Love your channel. Keep up the great work.
She deserves it for her talent, and the ignorance of the WNBA players.

You don't have to. Clark is the MVP on many, many levels.

Tell her to stop turning the ball over and to play defense lol and maybe she can get what Wilson has 🏆 wnba and college what have she won if she is so great
@@lavernebenson2863 You need an enema for your head,, so you can think clearly.
Life's not fair. She has had a massive target on her back this year and it would be even worst next year if she had won both ROY and MVP? Remember the league is dealing with emotional and at times irrational women who would cut off their own nose to spite their face.
I compare turnovers in basketball to incomplete passes in football. The fault falls completely on the shoulders (or stats) of the passer when 2 teamates are involved in the play. How many times have we heard this, 'he should have caught that pass, there is no excuse'? Yet the receiver is not penalized, just the quarterback. If the quarterback is sacked for a loss, it is documented on the quarterback's stats. At the same time the fans are listening to the analysts and commentators describe the utter breakdown in protection of the O-line. In these examples all the stats should reflect where the actual problem occured, not the player responsible for only one part of the particular play. Baseball is the only sport that gets it right 95% of the time. Every fan everywhere is disappointed when a pitcher is throwing a 'No Hitter' and a fielder makes an error that loses the 'no hitter'. The stats should reflect the fact, in BOLD letters, that the third baseman cost his pitcher a 'perfect game'. There are playmakers in every team sport, but in most sports 1 player takes the hit for errors made by the entire team.
Maybe 'the eyeball test' should hold more validity than it does when deciding awards.
They knew she would be eye poked so thats why they didnt give her MVP
After this, i can see, they gave it to wilson for the same reason they gave it to embid. Cause the other contender was not only just white, but they were anything but black. So they said na, we need to give it to them
this DEI is a mess, and i'm a copper-colored man.
Ohhh, the cries of racism would have been ASTRONOMICAL if A'ja hadn't gotten it
Admit she just ain't that good lol
