Ogunbowale turned down being considered. She is wise. If the US women's basketball selection is as political and “insider” as the Women's hockey team is, it is a closed group. Drama. Can't break in and not based on merit.
And Caitlin totaled 29 assists against Reeves teams in the two wins against Reeves teams. Reeves teams favored in both games, but Reeves lost both games. Terrible petty coach. She’s a grumpy old over rated wind bag.
I don't think Caitlin Clark would even want the commissioner singling her out as the reason for the WNBA's rapid growth this year. She just wants to fit in right now and earn the respect of the other players.
I don't think she's interested in earning other players' respect. Like me, she knows that people will either like you or they won't. CC let's her skills do the talking.
Catherine Engelbert was a joke, not acknowledging the obvious. CC has increased the viewership and the merchandise sales. CC jersey sold out in 17 minutes, and they didn't produce more. It is good for the leader, the rivalry between CC and AR is great too, and will help keep the momentum. That said, AR is awesome, but CC is running her team and you can't compare the two, and leadership and running the team is an important factor.
Spot on, she even would collapse on her with 3 players at times, but pressed and also double-teamed her. Clark has been shooting horribly lately and Reeve must not care, she only cared about showing Clark up. Reeve did shut Caitlin Clark down at the 3-point line, but Clark has been shutting herself down because she hasn't been able to hit the back side of a barn from the outer ring. But she's elite and made Reeve pay for her misguideance. Smoked the pretenders out with her A1 passing ability with 10 assists. Reese getting her normal double-double, and AO absolutely embarrassing them.
@@regietto It's shouldn't be about what the "vets" want, it should be about picking the best players that give you the best chance to win. Obviously, they made several wrong picks.
@@jamie49868True. I’m sure n the same page as you. However, Wokeness has the staff gassed and gaslighting that the fans will support with their dollars their political stances.

just shows you the difference between men and competition and women in competition... The guy who was the coach behind the miracle on ice, cut from the Olympic team that won in the 60s... But he wanted his team in the 80s to win against the soviets! But this female coach behind the US Olympic team is jealous of Clark
Cheryl Reeve is a joke. Part of their supposed reason to not take Caitlin is because she hasn't been practicing with the team for the last year at their training camps. So that says Cheryl has been working with this team roster for quite a while. Team WNBA has had less than a week together, and a coach who was given about a week notice she was going to coach team WNBA against the team USA, with supposed 2nd string talent compared to team USA. Fire Cheryl Reeve, and replace her with Miller and take Arike and Caitlin to the Olympics. Reeve sucks, and her comments after the game are lame as he k.
10000%. It's like you literally wrote my own thoughts out here. (and some extra ones I didn't have!) "Muscle memory" because they were playing with other teams a little bit ago....yeah but umm, the other team says the same thing. What other stupid non-excuse can you say? Refuses to own that she has been wrong and is in over her head. She's wretched.
That lame excuse kind of falls apart when Bob hasn't played but one game since January and she was selected over Caitlin, as my parents used to always tell me it's hard to keep track of all the lies but it's easy to remember the truth.
The all star team has one practice to speak of...whereas team USA has not only several practices, most of the players have been playing together a lot as compared to the all star team...that is what reeve has been saying, so with the selection committee, team USA has the experience, chemistry, and reeve has been in the trenches with them..and they lost badly to the all star team...hahaha
That's what happens when you put together a team based on politics. A team cobbled together by fan voting is somehow a better contructed roster. Team USA has 5 score first shooting guards. What's more, they're all fairly useless if they're not scoring. You have guards in this league that are unguardable (Arike, Carter) and you have guards that can hugely impact the game for you without scoring at all (Carrington, Clark, Courtney Williams who is on Reeves' wn team) and they go with a bunch of people that all need to shoot volume and score to be of any use. Their lone center (Griner) has just come back from injury and is slow as hell on defense, so easy to run past her. Their lone point guard (Gray) just came off a year injury hiatus and she looks slow and washed up. Team USA is gonna rely of A'ja, Stewie and one of their million shooting guards to all have 25+ every game so they can win games.
That's true, there's hella white people on team USA, including the coach. But it's none of those white people who have gotten the attention this new wave of rookies has received.
No doubt she has the skills but she is also more likeable than just about anyone else in the WNBA , and that combination is what is putting asses in the seats .
@@sotsoldieryahbal3522 The reason why CC is taking less shots and having trouble making distance-buckets is because Sides has her weight-training to increase muscle mass. She's gained two pounds of muscle so far and already become more physical on the court. What she's losing in accuracy with her increasing strength will self-correct once she reaches the 'fighting weight' that Sides wants her at. In the meantime, CC is focusing on her ground game with drives for the basket and assists. Boston is slamming two-pointers in the net from CC's passes to her and doing a good job of getting them extra points with her foul shots. If Smith can get her act together and get in on the pass-chemistry like Boston has, CC + AB + NS = an offensive triangle of death for defenses of other teams to lose their minds about. If they double up on CC they'll leave lanes open for AB and NS. If they don't, CC will make more drives into the paint and her increasing strength will make her tougher to stop. Sides is making a very smart move with her long-term plans for CC with the weight training and increased muscle-mass. It's also a huge plus that CC is able to adapt so well and still be a force to be reckoned with via her ground game. The amusing thing to me is that critics were calling her a one-trick pony with her three-pointers. Now, she's showing them that she has mad skills in a number of aspects of playing the game.
@@sotsoldieryahbal3522 Her shooting? You are right only 4 points. Not getting spoecial attentions...Really? cause in the game I watched Sabrina was picking her up deeper than half court. and if Caitlin drive there was plenty of help defense against Caitlin which accounts for her assists. Ogunbowale had an AMAZING game full stop! She had an amazing game last week against Clark as well! did you notice any similarities in the pace or style of play in the Dallas/Fever Game as well as the All Star win? Both Caitlin and Ogunbowale brought a fast paced transistion style. Team USA did not know how to adapt to that. Caitlins 10 assists versus 2 tournovers and 2 steals (hmmm aren't turnovers and steals kind of like inverses of each other?) - so 10 assists mean about 24 + 4 points for All Stars. Not as good as Ogunbowale but in the top 7 or so of all the players on the court that night (starters + bench for both teams). So show a little respect to CC
.... this is what happens when Team USA decides to reward old friends instead of building the best possible team..... 7 guards? ... and yet the guard who is leading the league in assists and 3s just beat you! .....and depending on the competition, that general attitude of entitlement might win gold, but i sure won't be watching it.......
CC is a point guard, not a shooting guard. Team USA doesn't have a true point guard, just shooting guards that fill in as a point guard. Why have a fill in, when you can have a true point guard.
Imagine being so insecure that instead of trying to win games you dedicate your entire team to preventing one opposing player from succeeding. Team USA is starting to look like the basketball version of Tonya Harding.
Even the Olympic team (THE OLYMPIC TEAM) kept her little rookie self defended the hardest because they knew that if she got hot, it was going to be a double digit to zero run for at least 5 minutes! LOL BUT, in her drawing their best defenders, that left Arike open to drop buckets on them and that's the Caitlin Clark problem for anyone on the other side of the court... ...if you don't double or triple guard her, she'll score on you and ramp her team up, but if you do double or triple team her to contain her, that leaves the rest of her squad free to put in work. Either way, Caitlin Clark is a problem if you're playing against her!
CC is very good but open your eyes and give credit where it's truly due ! Arike, scored 34 points and had 8 triples....they don't win without this girl's performance...period !
Dude the tv deal is an NBA carve out. They were negotiating this deal during Clark’s jr year at Iowa. No one does a multi billion dollar tv deal based on 1 person
Don't forget, Team USA players have been in the trenches with Reeves...and got their backsides handed to them. Arike gave Reeve and the Olympic committee a BIG FU! The W still refuses to give credit to CC for pretty much getting them everything they're getting now. More pettines 🤦♂
They should be the more experienced players, though? I get that they should make adjustments, but they start playing *next week.* This isn't a summer long camp to get ready. US women didn't win gold in 2006. Yes, they have the best talent and can and really should win. But it isn't just some forgone conclusion.
I wonder if Cheryl Reeve got any sleep last night. The WNBA stars made fools of them. The score was closer than the game actually was. The Olympic team got their asses kicked.
The whole committee needs to be replaced. They need to be kicked out and shame. Cheryl Miller should be the one coaching the team not that clown Cheryl Reeve and also I think Miller should be the next coach of the Indiana fever. They better offer her a contract fires and higher Miller right away.
I like the way the head lady keeps saying, we,we,we did this or that! WE didn’t do anything! The rookies did it and the controversy surrounding the haters AND the new fans!
They stopped her from getting shots, but she still set a rookie all-star game assist record. Had they left her on the court, she would’ve broken the all-time all-star game record. She can hurt you in many ways.
Yes thanks to Caitlin Clark. Do not forget this commissioner. And you left out Caitlin Clark from the USA Team. Open your eyes and see what is going on. You all have blinders on and can’t see what is happening! Wake up Commissioner
Hey commissioner, the reality is that if CC had went to the other opportunity offered to her. You would not have those numbers. Why are these people so blind?
I saw Diana Taurasi representing Team USA during the All-Star Game, that really told me Caitlin Clark will not be representing the Olympic team. I'm happy she can rest up and helped lead Indiana Fever to the championship trophy.
They lost to the Mystics and Wings, they are not making the playoffs, but Clark is good and will take them to new heights once she sharpens those long-ball skills.
That's one. I'm beginning to like Reese, all-star game helped. But... To be honest, Reese has helped attendance....but not even close to Clark. Reese had basically a home game, she's from Baltimore, in Washington couldn't even sell out their normal arena, when Clark comes to town with no connection to DC, the game gets moved and she pulls in 20,000. So yes this rookie group has all helped, but no one is on the level of Clark.
she got work to do on that 3 game, but she's elite for sure and would have been able to point-guard TEAM USA. Team USA will win the Gold, how can they not, but it would have made watching it worthwhile if Clark and Reese were hoopin' I ain't watching that mess of a coach.
It is a disgrace, a shame, unfair, and pissed off people that the WMBA will not give Clark credit for a lot of this years success. If she gets hurt and can't play screw the ungrateful league.
It is a disgrace, a shame, unfair, and pisses off people that a lot of CC fans will not accept that the league has given credit to CC for bringing in a lot of new fans but that the league existed before she came along and the wave is not just due to CC but to the larger wave of growth of women's BB. CC may be the only reason you came to women's BB but she's not the only reason for this year's success of the league.
Probably when she loses. Guarantee Reeve is distracted right now on top of trying to get this team ready to play in a week. Meanwhile, Australia.is nasty, Belgium and China are hungry, and France is playing in their home nation. They definitely can't just rely on A'ja Wilson to carry them for 7 games.
As long as there is a dude who just fathered a child on the USA WOMEN's team, I couldn't care less what happens at the Olympics. Cheaters should never be allowed to prosper.
I am surprised that the Olympic committee allows a male to compete with females. He's lazy and has no impact on the game...against smaller women no less!!
I WHOLEHEARTEDLY agree. It has ALL been Clark! I have NEVER watched a WNBA game ... until Caitlin Clark! I swore I never would when their players disrespected our nation. I vehemently dislike almost all of them. Its a FREE country still and they are free to do as they wish. I am also free to do as I wish.
Caitlin had 10 assists and 4 points. That means she directly responsible for at least 24 points. I have heard that not only as any rookie had 10 assists before but nonplayer ever has had 10 assists in an All Star game in the WNBA. The coach and the commisioner are dolts. Caitlin is a geuine incredible talent and these two woman just dont know how to handle the situation. I cant believe that the coach and commissioner just keep on embarrassing themselves.
Let me help you. CC had 10 assists. She set the rookie assist record in an all star game. The overall all star assist record his held by Sue Bird with 11.
These girls who say they been trying to get the league popular for years are gonna be remembered for doing everything they could to stop It 😂😂truly sad I’ve heard people say it unimaginable how toxic and hateful a WNBA locker room is but I’m starting to believe these woman would rather tank the sport than let someone else get credit
At around the 4:30 mark, Reeve said Team USA's muscle memory wasn't good because they haven't been practicing and playing together. BLEAH! If that's the reason, Team WNBA should have been even worse. We know they adjusted well to each other.
‘Hey Caitlin, thanks for all you’ve done for the wnba! Record ticket sales, record merch sales, breaking all those records! Maybe in 4 years we’ll consider you for the Olympic team. Now don’t let the door hit you on the way out.’
Haha excuses excuses!!! She lying when she said that team USA has only had a couple practices together! Team WNBA had only one practice together and kicked their butts ha ha!😂
Reeve is a shameful excuse of a coach. Unprofessional and vulgar. The Olympic team was not picked objectively, and neither was the coach. Commissioner forgot to mention one detail. The huge increase in merchandise sales, ticket sales, and TV ratings are all because of Caitlin Clark.
Have to say.... I think Angel rubbed a lot of people the wrong way when she arrived..... but she has been singing a different tune lately about CC.... But mainly, she is doing her talking on the floor now...... and she played great in the All-Star game....
@@No1Armadilloor people are just mad that she is unapologetically Angel. She has been the same everyday all day. Certain narratives and media outlets made her out to be the villain. She just accepted it. Most people just jumped on the hate AR bandwagon instead of making their own decision about her.
![Team WNBA vs Team USA All-Star [FULL Highlights] July 20 2024 | WNBA Highlights 2024](/img/n.gif)
Team USA should replace four individuals with the following four: Arike Ogunbowale, Catlin Clark, Angel Reese, and Cheryl Miller.
1000%, perfect...
Im gonna add Ashley Gray to that list as well. Speed is wat that slow lumbering USA team needs at this gray has it
Yes! And Mitchell…fastest kid out there. The Olympic team looked old and not enthusiastic.
Add Alyssa Grey she was amazing in the 3 guard small line up. It was our 4 guards and AR that cooked Cheryl Reeve.
Ogunbowale turned down being considered. She is wise. If the US women's basketball selection is as political and “insider” as the Women's hockey team is, it is a closed group. Drama. Can't break in and not based on merit.
She won't admit that Caitlin was the major piece that is making the WNBA watchable.
sometimes it is hard to accept that all was permanent, remember were all come and go.
Not to mention, Cheryl Reeve lost to Caitlin Clark twice in the same week. Reeve is winless against Caitlin Clark!
And Caitlin totaled 29 assists against Reeves teams in the two wins against Reeves teams. Reeves teams favored in both games, but Reeves lost both games. Terrible petty coach. She’s a grumpy old over rated wind bag.
Highest attendance in 26 years = Caitlin Clark You have to admit it was not the administration decisions that increased attendance
Reeve exposed herself with her bias and nasty mouth. Karma strikes back.
And Karma is not going to quit at the Olympics
She said I don't give two what's??? Don't forget what came out of her mouth😂😂😂😂😂
She is trash
Reeve is a poor example for the players.
I don't think Caitlin Clark would even want the commissioner singling her out as the reason for the WNBA's rapid growth this year. She just wants to fit in right now and earn the respect of the other players.
@PBW891 WELL SAID!!!!
I don’t think so either but still it is the truth and it must be said .
TRUE
I don't think she's interested in earning other players' respect. Like me, she knows that people will either like you or they won't. CC let's her skills do the talking.
Imagine that, 16 games with over 1 million viewers, 15 of which had CC in them and she doesn't even mention it, sad.
She's a royal b###h and is no better than the rest of the wnba haters
Yeah. Talk about ignoring the elephant in the room.
@@Struwwel2right. Very blatant!!

It is good for the leader, the rivalry between CC and AR is great too, and will help keep the momentum. That said, AR is awesome, but CC is running her team and you can't compare the two, and leadership and running the team is an important factor.
If Clark wasn’t worthy why did Reeves feel the need to full court press her?
Spot on, she even would collapse on her with 3 players at times, but pressed and also double-teamed her. Clark has been shooting horribly lately and Reeve must not care, she only cared about showing Clark up. Reeve did shut Caitlin Clark down at the 3-point line, but Clark has been shutting herself down because she hasn't been able to hit the back side of a barn from the outer ring. But she's elite and made Reeve pay for her misguideance. Smoked the pretenders out with her A1 passing ability with 10 assists. Reese getting her normal double-double, and AO absolutely embarrassing them.
They want Caitlin Clark to pay her dues when Caitlin is paying the fees and making all the money for them.
She's got the skills that pays the bills.

Go right ahead and take my blah with you.
It’s awesome how Caitlin looked so happy,
🎶And the sign said, hetero white girls, need not apply🎵
Cheryl Reeve is a lesbian intersectional-activist.
😂😂😂 So I painted my skin, paid a butch girl to hold my hand, and I went in to ask them Why?
The commissioner pointing out stats like she gets the credit is wild she has dropped the ball at every turn
Commissioner = 🗑️
How about this metric? Caitlin Clark is 1000% responsible for your current success. PERIOD
She. Will never have what CC HAS GIVEN TO THIS LEAGE...... !!!!!!!! GREATNESS...😊
It's clear the USA team is OLD and SLOW and that's the reason.
The WNBA all stars only had one practice together too.
Why is a convicted drug smuggler representing Team USA?
Do you mean that dude Grimey??
BG does not deserve to be in the USA team. Poor decision! Sad...
She wasn’t convicted in the US. The team only has one other center on the team. Regardless of your feelings about her, she adds value to the team.
@@scorpio00017He😂
Think DEI. The “E” stands for Entitlement.
They set the tone stop CC even if they lose and they did
What, the rookie who "hasn't earned a spot"? An odd strategy considering it's an all-star team
They stopped her from getting shots, but she still set a rookie all-star game assist record. Had they left her on the court, she would’ve broken the all-time all-star game record. She can hurt you in many ways.
A R I K E🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
and she removed herself from the Olympic Team consideration. That's says it all.
She’s is a beast
@@TomOnTheRun but why?
We learned the selection team had no idea what they were doing and apparently were playing favorites with veteran players who are past their prime.
Yes that's very clear and confirmed further after this game. Send the All Star team along with their coach to Paris!
That coach should be fired
Yall thought that woman was gon outcoach Cheryl Miller?lol
Yes thanks to Caitlin Clark. Do not forget this commissioner. And you left out Caitlin Clark from the USA Team. Open your eyes and see what is going on. You all have blinders on and can’t see what is happening! Wake up Commissioner
U r right…… this commissioner should praise and give credit to CC👍❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Commissioner is CLUELESS. LOL
They're going to keep hating on Caitlin Clark they are so jealous of her
Hey commissioner, the reality is that if CC had went to the other opportunity offered to her. You would not have those numbers. Why are these people so blind?
The wnba should go to Paris 🎉
Belgium will beat USA, they are in the same pool
If they can run.
Go to Belgium! hopefully they were watching this game
Brittney Griner is a Dude!
WNBA=Caitlyn Clark. No CC even though there is good talent, I wouldn’t be watching
That goes for thousands of people. CC has the passing skills that Magic and Bird had. She’s amazing.
I saw Diana Taurasi representing Team USA during the All-Star Game, that really told me Caitlin Clark will not be representing the Olympic team. I'm happy she can rest up and helped lead Indiana Fever to the championship trophy.
They lost to the Mystics and Wings, they are not making the playoffs, but Clark is good and will take them to new heights once she sharpens those long-ball skills.
CC breaks down the defense with speed.
I started watching basketball because of Angel Reese.So its not just Caitlin
That's one. I'm beginning to like Reese, all-star game helped. But...
To be honest, Reese has helped attendance....but not even close to Clark. Reese had basically a home game, she's from Baltimore, in Washington couldn't even sell out their normal arena, when Clark comes to town with no connection to DC, the game gets moved and she pulls in 20,000. So yes this rookie group has all helped, but no one is on the level of Clark.
Whats most embarrassing for reeves is miller walked in out of now where and beat her team. What the hell does that say!!😂😂
Team USA got their asses kicked now go home and send All Stars to the Olympics with Miller 😮
No one cared until Caitlin . Embrace her or enjoy your sinking boring ship
Clark needs to be on the USA team in Paris. She is the Larry Bird of the WNBA.
she got work to do on that 3 game, but she's elite for sure and would have been able to point-guard TEAM USA. Team USA will win the Gold, how can they not, but it would have made watching it worthwhile if Clark and Reese were hoopin' I ain't watching that mess of a coach.
I have literally had a smile on my face since Reeves and the USA Olympic team took that beat down
The All-Star team should be going to Paris for the Olympics🎉🎉
It is a disgrace, a shame, unfair, and pissed off people that the WMBA will not give Clark credit for a lot of this years success. If she gets hurt and can't play screw the ungrateful league.
It is a disgrace, a shame, unfair, and pisses off people that a lot of CC fans will not accept that the league has given credit to CC for bringing in a lot of new fans but that the league existed before she came along and the wave is not just due to CC but to the larger wave of growth of women's BB. CC may be the only reason you came to women's BB but she's not the only reason for this year's success of the league.
Reeve needs to be banned from the WNBA
Probably when she loses. Guarantee Reeve is distracted right now on top of trying to get this team ready to play in a week.
Meanwhile, Australia.is nasty, Belgium and China are hungry, and France is playing in their home nation. They definitely can't just rely on A'ja Wilson to carry them for 7 games.
How the heck is that MAN (BRITTANY GRINER), yes a MAN, still allowed to play in the WNBA and on USA Olympic Team?
As long as there is a dude who just fathered a child on the USA WOMEN's team, I couldn't care less what happens at the Olympics. Cheaters should never be allowed to prosper.
Agree. That’s disgusting. A man shouldn’t be allowed in the league, much less the Olympic team.
Exactly
I am surprised that the Olympic committee allows a male to compete with females. He's lazy and has no impact on the game...against smaller women no less!!
Grow up.
@@SeshatPG82 So you agree with men playing on a women's team. BG is a man......study the facts!
I WHOLEHEARTEDLY agree. It has ALL been Clark! I have NEVER watched a WNBA game ... until Caitlin Clark! I swore I never would when their players disrespected our nation. I vehemently dislike almost all of them. Its a FREE country still and they are free to do as they wish. I am also free to do as I wish.
Caitlin had 10 assists and 4 points. That means she directly responsible for at least 24 points.
I have heard that not only as any rookie had 10 assists before but nonplayer ever has had 10 assists in an All Star game in the WNBA.
The coach and the commisioner are dolts. Caitlin is a geuine incredible talent and these two woman just dont know how to handle the situation. I cant believe that the coach and commissioner just keep on embarrassing themselves.
Let me help you. CC had 10 assists. She set the rookie assist record in an all star game. The overall all star assist record his held by Sue Bird with 11.
Great honsety! I agree with you.
These girls who say they been trying to get the league popular for years are gonna be remembered for doing everything they could to stop It 😂😂truly sad I’ve heard people say it unimaginable how toxic and hateful a WNBA locker room is but I’m starting to believe these woman would rather tank the sport than let someone else get credit
Hoping team U.S.A. loses big time!!!
This is what they are underestimating now the USA fans will be rooting against this team because they don’t represent the what the USA stands for
No way you still have to root for your country bulshit
Un American comments
@@danielpires8940 Not really
@@danielpires8940 Not really, were a free people who can think for themselves. No CC, no USA.
The WNBA exposes the pettiness of women
Cheryl Reeve , what a shame...
Best hope that CC don’t get injured because the glaring difference will blind everyone. The so called all stars whoopin that…. Priceless!
Cheryl Reese is bias. The problem is Reese
Reeve, like Christopher
At around the 4:30 mark, Reeve said Team USA's muscle memory wasn't good because they haven't been practicing and playing together. BLEAH! If that's the reason, Team WNBA should have been even worse. We know they adjusted well to each other.
They couldn't care less!
‘Hey Caitlin, thanks for all you’ve done for the wnba! Record ticket sales, record merch sales, breaking all those records! Maybe in 4 years we’ll consider you for the Olympic team. Now don’t let the door hit you on the way out.’
Trump said it best…😂😂😂. They’re not sending their best.😅😅😅
Haha excuses excuses!!! She lying when she said that team USA has only had a couple practices together! Team WNBA had only one practice together and kicked their butts ha ha!😂
The commissioner is like a politician…taking credit for something good, that they had nothing to do with.
Apparently Coach Bat Wings can't select teams nor coach them. 😂
Muscle Memory. ????? This lady is nuts
No, you just don't know what she's talking about. Read up.
CC should take a year off. Let's see if the W goes back to begging to make a buck.
Reeve is a shameful excuse of a coach. Unprofessional and vulgar. The Olympic team was not picked objectively, and neither was the coach. Commissioner forgot to mention one detail. The huge increase in merchandise sales, ticket sales, and TV ratings are all because of Caitlin Clark.
Team USA needed to treat that like a dad in a fight with his son. You have to win. Have to. If not who’s taking out the trash?
Reeve is literally ms.Crabtree from south park 😂
Caitlin brings the boom!!! 🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑
"We played a little more defense than all star game"?? Yeah, from 94' out. 😂
19 assists for the WNBA record should punch CC's ticket.
They keep saying WE . If it wasnt for Caitlin it would be the same as all other years.
Credit should be given where credit is due. I agree CC is under appreciated by the WNBA!
And Angela Reese don't forget
Have to say.... I think Angel rubbed a lot of people the wrong way when she arrived..... but she has been singing a different tune lately about CC.... But mainly, she is doing her talking on the floor now...... and she played great in the All-Star game....
@@No1Armadilloor people are just mad that she is unapologetically Angel. She has been the same everyday all day. Certain narratives and media outlets made her out to be the villain. She just accepted it. Most people just jumped on the hate AR bandwagon instead of making their own decision about her.
CC should just say that she not interested in playing on this Olympic Team…
Your viewers are up because of who is the player that moved that needle ? It is Caitlin Clark period .❤❤❤❤❤
