Diana Taurasi INJURED Before Olympics & Clark Rematch...In this video we are going to be talking about Caitlin Clark, the number 1 pick in the WNBA draft and how she is hated by WNBA players. Caitlin Clark was drafted number 1 by the indiana fever after being one of the greatest college basketball players of all time. WNBA players like A'Ja Wilson, Diana Taurasi, Breanna Stewart and Sue bird are not fans of the number 1 pick.

If Clark is asked she might consider a NO THANK YOU! SERIOUSLY!!
She actually said if they asked her that she would join them.
She's been to the Olympics 6 times, she's not missing out on anything. She's got her medals and accolades, time spread the wealth D. Everyone keeps saying the U.S. is a lock for the gold, but they also tell us we need all these vets. Time to be passing the torch ladies, especially when we have this rookie class setting records.
DT has been to the Olympics 5 times, this will be her 6th Olympics.
@@madman1rug Jeez, OK!
She went to the Olympics when she was 18, so why can't Caitlin and Angel at 22.
She's been going to the Olympics since she was -2 years old? She's been on Team USA for the FIBA Under-19 World Cup and she's been on Team USA for the FIBA Americas Under-16 Championship, everything else she's done has been high school or college related.
@@stevenvox6549 competition was ALOT worse back then. If you think Women’s basketball is mediocre now???? Hooooweeeed
Clark should not go she needs that rest
I agree, I would like her to rest.
Facts
Exactly. Stop milking her
Well, let's ask her, shall we? "Do you want a rest, or to go to Paris?"
@@BenjWarrant you beat me by a minute 😂
These AARP members dropping like flies !!! 😳
Caitlin just say Nooooooooo
I saw an interview with Clark.Don't remember who it was with.But she said if someone is injured,she would take their place,if asked.
Then they would put Angel.
She should play, the Olympics are more interesting with her there.
She doesn't do drugs
@@snave59That was 3 weeks ago. She should say no, rest, and practice.
She should never have been added. Let other younger players have a chance.
Missing the Olympics would be poetic, since she had a hand in leaving CC off the team.
@@LeviAckerman-cb5ji I have not heard that.The coach of the olympic team,Cheryl Reeves,and Jennifer Rizzotti,of the olympic commitee,choose the players.
@@snave59 You are forgetting Dawn Staley, former teammate and coach and longtime friend of Taurasi, who is also a member of the Team USA selection committee.
@@snave59 DT had influence on this roster. Everyone knows it.
Taurasi will not be able to play in the Olympics but that will not stop them for taking her there. They will just put her into the game when it does not matter. This is about getting her a 6th Gold medal not about bringing the best 12 players.
Hahaha. "Team USA only selected the best, because they only care about winning gold!" 😂😂😂 The prove of this is the selection of an old and injured team!
Taurasi is like old politicians who don’t know how to retire. It’s not even about moving on and letting the next generation take over it’s about taking care of her body at this age after 30 years of playing the sport. But when your ego Is more important it’s what destroys your legacy in the last few years of your career because you’re not willing to let go.
Diana Biden. 🤣🤣🤣
@@anneb889 Diana Trump
@@snave59Trump still has all his brain cells. Biden.....😅😅😅😅
@@JustAnotherConspiracyTheoristthat’s like saying my fish is smarter than your fish. There both idiots .
@S-E-P-96 She's broke, has 12 dollars in checking.
This injury is a convenient way for taurasi to avoid getting beaten again by CC.
If the US loses the olympics, that's going to be great content for everyone. THE WNBA had everything to lose but nothing to gain by excluding CC
They found a loophole, so they could justify their decision, but we know the player who plays the same position and is 20 years younger and who set the all time records in scoring and assists has more to offer this team.
And blame #22
@chopstix3 The WNBA,has nothing to do with the olympics.
@@snave59 The wnba HEAVILY, HEAVILY, HEAVILY INFLUENCES THE OLYMPICS.
@@snave59 The entire women's Olympic selection committee has strong ties to the WNBA. The coach is the coach of the Lynx. The chair is the President of the Sun, etc....
I heard DT's EGO got critically injured.
Shes 42. Load management. Plus she doesnt want to push herself and lose again in her swan song year. She probably hoping for a kobe like exit tour but nobody cares.
If she had retired when Sue Bird did DT would have got a good exit.
She needs a helicopter ride? 😂
Shes 40....why is she on the Olympic team? makes no sense.
Australia has a 43 year old player
Taurasi is 42. Born 06/11/82
Experience I guess
She’s gay. And an activist.
She's 42
Fossils are known to be fragile..
I saw something earlier on you tube where someone wrote...."Diana will show up in a wheelchair to the Olympics before she lets Caitlin go." LOL... but probably true!
She already had a walker when they selected her so it isn't much of a stretch.
I've seen those games where the players were in wheelchairs. Pretty cool. Look them up.
Who is she? Joe Biden?😂😂
I would be surprised if DT plays. Olympic would come first.
If she really wanted to cement legacy. Have press conference and say I am dropping out because it is time to pass the torch to the future. I yield my spot to Caitlin Clark
Even people that are not fans will suddenly love her
she had to do that long ago. everyone knows she's injured, it'd come across as a cop out, especially since she was running her mouth about "reality is coming".
@@dreasdwolfox3435 I was thinking this a couple weeks ago, but she should just say I'm old my body is sore. I love representing my country, but it's time my body is telling me and now my heart is too.
@@davidverlaney7764the legacy is already cemented newbie. Google her or read her wnba bio. That shit cemented and nothing you say can take it away. GO AND BUILD YOUR LEGACY!
The GOAT is only the GOAT until the next kid comes along.
Which will be Aja Wilson
CC 😊
Good one 😂
Even her own body did not want her to win. 😅
Clark should just move on and program for a fantastic basketball career. She doesn’t need the US Olympic team and doesn’t owe them anything. She should consider Ireland or Italy. Take a Euro tour playing guest appearances to gauge how she fits into the European scene.
“There are three ways to ultimate success. The first way is to be kind. The second is to be kind. The third is to be kind,” Mr. Rogers. Be kind to the old GOATs.
Hey Mick, did you hear the news about Celeste Taylor? She got signed by the Sydney Flames for a one year contract. Go Taylor!
Going to game tomorrow and hoping for a good one. In terms of Olympics l...hope CC says no if asked.
She already said she would go if asked. She will keep her word.
yeah, me too.
if shes not up for (migranes or whatever) it - bow out for sure.
Come to think of it. Caitlin being pulled off the court by her Coach with just 1 rebound away from getting her first triple double when they played DT, just made Caitlin's triple double MORE LEGITIMATE. Keeping her in the game with a couple of minutes left would have been called stat padding by her detractors.
You mean the same people who have no problem with a player begging for the ball in the waning seconds of a game which they are clearly going to win just to get the points they need for a double-double?
@@shf4592 You're so desperate to cram all of your BS into a single sentence you're incoherent.
I'm sorry but there's no way Taurasi is the GOAT. I had literally never heard of her before CC happened. Sue Bird, yes. Lisa Leslie, yes. Sheryl Swoopes, yes. Taurasi? Nah...
Lauren Jackson has more MVPS lmao
They should call her "The soon to be deposed GOAT."
Guessing you never followed women's basketball. Taurasi was the biggest name in college basketball in her time.
OMG please do some research… UConn great and WNBA beast
Huh. It's pretty unusual to have heard of Sue Bird and not Diana Taurasi since they're close friends and were teammates at one point.
I could care less about the Womens bb olympics now. I would like to see the All Stars beat that team!!!
Fever will make the playoffs above the mercury. Book it. Fever will be a different monster in August.
I thought so and even bet on it. But the fever would need to go on a tear and games like yesterday didn’t help.
Tmrw will be a must win for that to happen. They are 3.5 behind and a loss would be 4.5 with only 16 games to make up. A win tmrw would make it more manageable. Right now dk has fever over 15.5 -125 phoenix over 22.5 +120.
Based on the main dish, sure, but they still have the Sides.
I thought so to.Until they lost their last game,to a team,they easily beat,earlier,in the season.
They getting a new coach over the break?
She WAS the goat…idk why they want to send a bunch of old folks to play in the olympics
It’s called justice
She won’t play. CC kick her but last time. Taurasi was trying not to guard CC the whole game. It was telling to watch.
Yup, I seen that...she kept switching off her pretty quick
Naphessa Collier, Chelsea Gray and Diana Taurasi all are limping into the Olympics. And Griner looks very slow these days. They will still get the Gold Metal. Just cannot afford injuries.
If Caitlin Clark goes to age 42 and stays healthy, Tarasi and every other WNBA STAR Of the past we'll just be memories somewhere down the stat list of numbers and achievements. The 1930s Jesse Owens was the greatest sprinter and long jumper in the world and today he is cherished but could not come close to competing with today's elite jumpers and sprinters. You will never be forgotten like so many great track and field athletes of the past. In the 50s Roger Bannister ran the 1st 4 minute mile his name is etched in history. But now college guys have to run under 4 minutes just to make the finals at the NCAA. Athletics evolve.
Michael Jordan,said Clark is the best woman's player in the world,right now.
The Olympics would be a step down for Clark
I don't think so. It is a dream of hers.
Yeah, a bad dream@@v2807
Tarausi will 100% not pull out of Olympics. She will go unless she is in a wheelchair pathetic but true. All she cares about is getting a gold medal not about helping the team.
She already has several gold medals.
@@snave59 yes but she has made statements that have been clear she REALLY wants to be on team to win a 6th just do people can say she has 6.
There are only 12 teams in the WNBA. How are any teams not loaded with massive talent? Especially with foreign players also.
One of the dumbest financially decisions ever and also straight skill everybody's hating on Caitlin
Is there anyway you can get that opaque square to just stay on Reese? She is so awkward it is tough to watch. She doesn't move much so it would be easy to keep it on her.
Finally caught a Sky game on a flight back to LA tonight. Holy crap.. Reese was the most unathletic player on the court. She has a 3" vertical and was blocked 4 or 5 times and also missed 3 or 4 shots at the rim. BUT she 'did' get 10pts and 10reb fwiw. Was this her worst game by far or is this every night?
..and when the player got 10/10 (for the visiting team) the NY crowd cheered like they won the championship. For 10/10 REB? Very very weird situation that would never happen in any other sport.
I really hope Clark doesn't end up going to the Olympics. France is in political a nd civil unrest. Not to mention the ever present danger of terrorist attacks. Clarks' notoriety would add an extra element of danger. If there is terrorist attack being planned the fact that so many Americans would be watching Clark she and the team would be in their headlights. I've thought all along it is a blessing not to be on that roster.
People! How about some respect? Playing such a physical sport at 42 at a high level is awesome. Diana has had a great career. Don't diss her for her age! Youth isn't an accomplishment! I agree she should step aside for Clark at this point. But honestly, Clark is looking forward to the Olympic break, so I'm torn on what I'm hoping for.
Dinosaur Taurasi is getting what she gave.
CC needs to say NO WAY
She has already said she would go if asked.
Clark is already the best point guard - better than Gray because she is not the player she apparently was. The Olympic team is not a meritocracy - and it seems they are looking backward not forward in terms of women’s basketball. No one will take the WNBA seriously until they stop the stupid narratives designed to minimize Clark and over hype others. But maybe this is the crazy marketing strategy to create controversy where there otherwise would not be. All it does though is alienate new fans to the league and reinforce that this league is not to be taken seriously.
Out of all the players,CC can take her spot because they play the same position
If the entire women’s team dies in a plane crash, Caitlin still isn’t on the Olympic team.
Wasn't Copper mostly glued to CC during that game, and when on breaks DT was guarding her. ... it still insane she's the only full court guarded player in the WNBA and they say she's not the best... so stop guarding her then..
her Pride is Broke after C.C. stole that soul.
But she's so young and in her prime /s
Taurasi will be at the Olympics even if she has to sit on the bench.
So Team USA have three injured players now. I wonder what will they do, replace them or let them walk with bandage or crutch.
Hope cc rests and workouts with her teammates
I don’t know if there is a world where she is willing to sacrifice her spot the way Kawhi did.
Can’t quite exactly but it seemed the injured lady commented #22 would spend her first years on the bench… learning from the pros. K. Afraid?
Good riddance Taurasi! I want CC to stat-pad against to Mercury!!! 😂😂😂 She should reject the Olympics if they ask. Clearly THEY don't care about what she brings, she should get ready for the 2nd half with her teammates.
I am not a DT hater, and I don’t hate any of the W players. I do wish DT and the older vets would pass on the Olympic spots to younger players!
Agree.I don't get why they are so selfish.They all have been,many times.Let someone else go.
Taurasi Fears Clark!
Old news.. Minnesota lynx player all-star hurt too
What the hell is going on with all these veterans getting injured from the Olympics team or is this just normal in the WNBA because of their schedule? Just wondering?
Guess those private jets haven't made a difference on the 🐐 body😅
They will not let Clark 7nto the Olympics even if half the roster dropped dead lol
Diana will be my GOAT if she gives up her spot in Team USA to accommodate Caitlin.
I feel so badly for Taurisi! I'm older myself and identify with people of my generation. I was so hoping to see her walking up and down the court tomorrow.
Do Olympic courts allow walkers?
@@BulletSponge178 yes .. for the Special Olympics
@@palmtreewhisperer😂
@@BulletSponge178Believe me, you will wake up at age 50 sooner than you think. Youth goes by in a blink! Some young asshole will be making fun of you. Your time is coming real soon!
Something to consider: Last night, watching the Phoenix/Dallas game. Ogunbawele was 4 for 13 shooting, which is a very pedestrian number with her getting her usual minutes. She did have 13 assists. 13. It makes me wonder with the latest DT news. A very uncharacteristic game for her. Why now?
DT plays on the Olymp team as Larry Bird....blown out back
At this point, I'd love to see Copper and Atkins on Fever next year
Sheesh! How many team USA members are going to get injured? A player is going down every week.
she couldve exited gracefully... this is getting embaressing for a former GOAT 😢 not everyone has Lebron genetics.
I live in phx and follow the Mercury. She has a bad back and probably won’t play until the all star game.
Clark should just say
I pass.
Let's see how well Clark does against the Olympians. It should be obvious if she belongs on the team. It may be obvious to see she doesn't belong as well.
July 20th is 8 days away!
There be no more excuses!
She hasn’t played since they last played Fever . 🤔
How do the choose a coach for the All-Star team? Who is it?
Never done before, not even in the NBA!! Clark 29 points 13 assists 5 rebounds 5 three pointers 3 steals!!! Historic Stat Line!! Not even in the NBA!!!!
I'd fake an injury too if I had to play Clark again.
Caitlin should not agree to Olympics for 2 reasons .
1. she wants to rest and PRACTICE for a month with Fever
2. for her to excel in running assists, Oly TEAM need to be familiar with her. Else a lot of dropped passes as with Fever until recently .
AR is going to Paris to watch. Any chance she could take Taurasi's place if she isn't ready? Is this a long shot?
The Fever has an outside shot to get to 19 wins.... that's if they sweep the Mercury...now if they sweep them, they both might have 19 wins
Im a HUGE CC fan. I live in phx. DT has been 3 as long as i can i remember.
Can you imagine CC a point guard for a team that can handle its shit?
I think she's playing tomorrow. She's resting for the rematch.
CC needs to stay away from any late invite...she needs to.chill.a few weeks.
Greed, jealousy and selfish are the only words that are in Taruasi's vocabulary. Your an old lady now and give the younger generation to experience the Olympic dream. For once think of others.
From a purely selfish point of view, I hope she doesn't make it back. This is because I have a ticket to the game against.. is it Belgium? in London at the end of the month, and I really want to see CC22.
If she was any kind of person, she would recommend that CC takes her place on the team.
Diana jersey #3 is correct
Well she's almost 50
DT doesn't need to play in the all star game either. If any time its going to be less then 5 minutes. Just to see the toughest opponent they have this year.
I feel for her but that’s the REALITY when you’re her age unfortunately.
I'm buyin'. She will rest now if she's hurting, but will def play for Team USA. The Olympics appearance is more important to her AND to the Mercury post-break attendance.
She hurt her back in the cc game
CC won’t be allowed to play her game in Olympics. It’s too reckless. Unless she toned it down
I wouldn't say she is reckless.she likes to play fast.
DT should opt of Olympics and serve as coach. Too bad WBNA rests players for the Olympics.
Who would replace her ..this so called goat...if she was so great when she played Clark she wanted no part of her...the goat is a rookie...anybody or fan of the sport or even people with common sense can see Clark is the player in that league...she has bullied double teamed even triple teamed and is only getting better...to say Reese is just as good is not true ...the points Reese has and say Clark and her are close in points...Reese ain't being played like Clark is being played
If you’re going to play in Clark’s spot, back your game up and face her like a woman
So how many olympians are dropping out against these all stars?
40 year old players are going to pick up more injuries than 22 year olds, and recovery time is going to be longer.
She doesn't need to go to a 7th Olympics
nooooo that sucks
Old gurls need more rest. And they get injured more often.
GOAT? you make me laugh 😂😂😂
Taurasi and Collier out? What does this mean for Olympics? Plus Griner might want a break when her baby is born?
I hate that for her 🙏🏼
She don't want all that smoke!
