@BricksCenter Ironic the most petulant player in the league condescendingly beckoning to official and saying grow up & come here like any and everyone is supposed to do as she bids. She’s the one being childish at all times, it’s awful to watch
@933KJR@marcjames When bashing people from other countries for their accent doesn’t work, I guess you just spit the worst possible take and hope it gets you some clicks. Read the room KJR, this is brutally bad.
@LeLaker Absolutely no foul, except possibly offensive. If she didn’t try to shove off literally every defender then maybe she could draw contact. Pushed off and launched herself outta bounds. Just bad hoop by CC
@andfuckingone How you don’t have the DPOY even on here? Gabby Williams defending better than everyone this year, and she’s doing it on the perimeter night after night.
@Sudharsan_AK10 CB is a sell out turn coat that sacrificed her journalistic integrity to latch on to a perceived gravy train. She’s been unscrupulous, disengenous, and a gas lighter in the creation of this book. Clearly trying to cement herself as a CC authority and feed at the trough.
In America, we love to say people have the freedom to choose. But let’s be honest, that freedom often comes with conditions. Most of the time, your choice is only respected if it aligns with what others want.
In the WNBA All-Star vote, players were given a choice, and they used it. When Caitlin Clark came in 9th among guards, the backlash began.
Suddenly, these women were being labeled jealous, bitter, and petty, not because they lied, but because their votes didn’t match what certain groups expected.
Is anyone upset about who came in 5th, 8th, or 10th? Of course not.
On the season, Caitlin Clark is shooting 29.5% from three — 6th worst among players making 1+ three per game. She’s only played 56% of the season. She ranks 18th in assist-to-turnover ratio among top 20 guards in assists. She leads the entire league in turnovers. One could argue that she’s had more bad games than good ones.
But instead of respecting the players’ votes, people are pointing to TV ratings, charter flights, and merchandise sales as if those are the qualifications for being an All-Star. They’re not.
This isn’t just about one vote. It’s part of a long-standing pattern that has been happening since the beginning of last season.
No one’s denying Caitlin Clark’s talent. But insisting she must be voted higher, regardless of performance, isn’t about fairness. It’s about control, and that control is enforced through media outrage, online harassment, and subtle, coded commentary.
It’s selective outrage rooted in entitlement.
@ShowCaseShabazz AB kind of buster with all her dirty tactics and then acting put out when she gets called on it. Becoming more and more frequent. Phee as solid as they come, if she has beef it’s legit.
@seeratsohi No Gabby Williams?? She is the best defender in the league thus far, shooting with efficiency, playmaking at an elite level, and is arguably the Storm MVP. She is 100% an all star and deserves to be recognized and selected.
