Caitlin Clark Is The Truth

Touché.
We're watching what could be the end of the plumber's era. I think women's basketball obviously is not as evolved as men's and it seems suspect to just start watching the game as it explodes in popularity and roll up like "these bitches suck."
It may be a truthful observation but I'm not sure it is a fair criticism because it's like showing up to a high school play and "criticizing" it like it is The Wire. It is what it is as far as the talent.
I'm not sure I agree. Many of these professional players have been involved with basketball since they were 10 or 11 years old, playing through AAU type leagues, Middle and High School teams, then College before turning pro. Though many women athletes have historically been paid like plumbers (or less), I think it's fair or reasonable to expect a professional level of competency from a professional athlete- or are you saying we should expect a certain level of incompetency because they have not been a mega- popular league until now? I think that's a disservice to the hard work they put in on a daily basis- and to many of the all-out ballers of the past-
I think new eyes on the game is good- it drives up revenue, which drives up salaries- but i don't think that many of the people new to the women's game care much about anything beyond a player here or there, a team here or there, logo 3s, records and wins. Not to defend dude that was 'mansplaining', but I would wager most people talking about layups (when they are criticizing the league in general and not a specific player) are more likely to be actual fans of the women's game and are actually watching and trying to enjoy them.
IMO, (not a professional athlete's, mind you) off-hand lay ups is one of those skills that can be improved through work. Some skills and talents seem god-given (praise Yahweh), but I don't think going to the off hand is one of them, and any player (male or female) can probably improve with practice. thoughts?

I'll tryOn a Sunday night.
that said, I'm staying up for the game
He's always good for a laughThat was more entertaining than the game
I was told that THIS is the official WNBA thread. You might want to take that up with the OP. I'm just a customer, you need to talk to management.
^^^^^^^^^^^
Yes he is
Once Caitlin Clark is eliminated from the playoffs, this thread will fade away.
A'ja Clark was srinking it up shooting 1 for 8Aces got 9 points at end of 1st quarter!!!!
They all sucked though
She must be going through something because she's been going through a bad hair day for a couple of weeks now
Or maybe she's just focused on basketball right now and that's the look that she's going for.
Well...
There's a few Peeps We (probably) won't hear from again for sure.
And I hope the thread title changes for sure.
Just checking in to see the Coon squad tears….Hows many Swoops and Reese deflection comments have they made?
That’s the power of Caitlin
Catilin Clark can shoot a napkin in a trash can and @therealjondoe will post about it. It will go a few pages back but that’s about it
The unanimous MVP and the 2-time defending champions are playing and nobody posts because nobody cares.
Proof that you muthafuckas only care about Caitlin
There's only like 3 people that comment during the games, the rest come in after for the back and forth talk. This thread will die because Jondoe won't be in here posting Caitlin Clark stuff anymore.. lolThat’s the power of Caitlin
You're right
The good thing about women's basketball is that the deep in the tournament, for the NCAA and the playoffs for WNBA the better quality of basketball is played.
That's the way it should be but it becomes obvious and it's very competitive.
In past years I'd watch the regular season depending on the teams but I'd definitely tune in for the playoffs.
Yep she's looking great out there!
I will be breaking down the fever season and free agent possibilities and recapping the baby goats historic rookie year. We'll also be analyzing wherever caitlin plays overseas in the W off-season, but we're winning the next 2 so we aren't going anywhere yet.
3 game suspension minimum
That was an unnatural motion. I’m not saying that it was on purpose, but it looked weird and unnatural.
Not on purpose but what the hell is she doing with nails that long playing basketball
Not on purpose but what the hell is she doing with nails that long playing basketball
Not on purpose?
Who goes right to gouging eyes after trying to block a pass
She wasn't even looking at her, she was looking at the ball, she went for the block and caught Caitlin in the eye on the down swipe
Yep.
She's on fire now.
That isn't natural
She’d be a fool to play overseas. I believe they’re going on strike after this season, and she and Angel will be the faces that help secure the contract they need.
