A'ja's getting flack because she comes across as being jealous and hating on Caitlin.
Which she is, but she has a right to feel that way. Her team's the two time defending champions going for a third championship and she's a 3-time MVP of the league.
So she deserves and gets the recognition but...
One thing that she doesn't understand is that no matter how good you are, that doesn't mean that people/fans are interested in you or want to see you play.
Examples, the Boston Celtics are the NBA Champions and Jaylen Brown's the Final's MVP.
Does anyone care? Is anyone interested in seeing the Boston Celtics or Jaylen Brown play?
We can even go back to last years champion. Is anyone interested in seeing the Denver Nuggets and Jokic play? Who's also a champion and 3-time MVP.
And when I say "Anyone", I mean the general public and casual fan. Even regular basketball fans. Muthafuckas ain't lining up to watch Boston or Denver play, they aren't must see tv.
In my opinion.
