    This is a “CC hate” segment. CC is responsible for 44 of the 88 points. Everyone is scoring bc Dan Marino is slinging the mess out the rock

    The problem I have with these two is they can not just give Caitlin the proper credit, respect that she deserves. Why did Copper wear herself out defending Clark? A 22 PPG guard scored 7 points in this game. Why did Tibbets put a guard on Smith and at times a guard on Griner? Come on, now. Of course Caitlin's teammates played well and it was a team victory but Caitlin, on a really bad shooting night, accounted for 44 of 88 points the Fever made. Caitlin was the engine. It wasn't even about DT vs. CC as they rarely guarded each other. And it's not about CC's stats or the stupid triple double stat she nearly got. It was more about CC's exceptional court vision and passing with the threat of her shooting that makes her lethal. Plus her poise to withstand some early jitters and not feeling well and still being effective. But it pains the two of you to ever admit she's special. And that's sad.
    As for others, yes, Mitchell and Boston and Temi Fagbenlie were instrumental in the win and I hope Caitlin Clark-only Stans can acknowledge her teammates as Caitlin would love them to do. The two teams play again soon and I think it'll be a different game but have no idea of who will shine in that one. I don't expect K Copper to only score 7.

      The Hive Mind is a very powerful force. Those who bow to it will never acknowledge Clark's greatness. Dawn Staley said "We're not monkeys" as a way to frame Iowa's Coach Bluder/Clark/Hawkeyes as racist, because she couldn't accept that her all (5) star team could lose to such a lesser team, and her bigotry spread like a virus through ''the Culture" - quickly manifesting with Reese and now afflicting a huge swath of commentators, fans, coaches, and players who feel justified (because Clark/support is ''racist'') in backing the Bully Club.
      Conversely, if you see a talking head go against the Bully Race Hive Mind, you will see such independent thinkers labeled as ''sell outs'', ''uncle Toms'', etc. when in fact they are people of courage, fair mindedness, and ethics.

Whether I stay depends on what happens going forward. But one thing that is clear to me (us) is that the product needs to improve. And these veterans need to make way for the youth.

    It isn't what Dinosaurasi said. It's the dismissive manner in which she said it. In any case, it didn't age well, and Taurasi has a little crow to eat. But I guess, "That's just DT," to quote Lexie Brown.
    So all of you Club UConn folks can shove it. CC did more than any of you without the benefit of a loaded team. In fact, you know it, and you are all envious that you didn't have the opportunity to do the same nor could you.

  • @destinypirate

    It's not WHAT people say, it is HOW and the CONTEXT.
    Clark has been targeted with more persecution, deresion, bigotry, and abuse than any other athlete this century. What might seem like normal critique, made while the mob is bullying and piling on, is a bad look.
    - Imagine joining a conversatin on Reese, where people are being mean and derisive, and then adding "she needs to know she's not going to have it easy, blah blah" - it would be piling on due to adding this to the tenor of the conversation.
    Adults don't hide behind literalism.
    Also, it is non-sensical. There is no need to state the obvious, unless it is obvious. Imagine a ''rookie'' astronaut having a senior pilot tell them that they will ''have it rough'' blah blah. No, a pro is a pro - and if they aren't aware and prepared for the pro level - then they aren't pro.
