9/27/24 — #Fever star Caitlin Clark:
“Nobody in our league should be facing any sort of racism, hurtful, disrespectful, hateful comments and threats. Those aren’t fans. Those are trolls. And it’s a real disservice to the people in our league, the organization, the #WNBA. …”
There is a race for most detrimental voice in the fanbase, and wow I have never seen someone take a commanding lead quite like this.
Twerking for grifters and weird politicians for clout that will only make Caitlin’s life worse. This is the cream of the crop I must say.
@BK2NewJeroos@mofaya_@vuwbbfan Dude, the Aces were 8th last season in defense. And the Dream who were 2nd in the league didn't make it out of the 1st round. 😭
@crashoutking1 This is going to be hard for some people to accept. DD is a better player right now (and likely next season) than Pissott. The fact they were ok letting her walk should tell you all you need to know.
@BK2NewJeroos@mofaya_@vuwbbfan The Fever defense is 8th in the league right now, so basically middle of the pack. It's not even that bad. And they have the best offense in the league.
@BK2NewJeroos@mofaya_@vuwbbfan I'm willing to bet that the vast majority of teams that win championships are somewhere in the top five in scoring, not near the bottom of the league.
@wheelsfelloff_ I don't take the player vote that seriously. Sue Bird once said a lot of players just vote for their friends, and plenty of players don't even care enough to vote at all. I don't think it's something that should be taken seriously.
People — especially reporters — need to stop pretending Caitlin Clark hasn’t denounced racism/hatred.
She has. Repeatedly.
Asking her to address these issues *again* is more performative than productive.
If you choose to ignore her past comments, that’s on *you* — not her.
@DylanKaneSports CC knew it happened though. She looked over at the ref for a call when she got up. And I think that's the person who matters in this situation.
@espnW@chiney Bro, CC looked over at the ref for a call when they got up. And according to White, she didn't find out about it until halftime. So I'm assuming CC told her about it at halftime.
@TraeK_@Ser_Dweeb Skate past what? He never said the players don’t like SW. He said he heard from a source that a player feels like she doesn’t stick up for the players enough. He didn’t even say the locker room as a whole feels that way.
@BoongV2 Despite what some people say, her game has evolved. She’s getting to the rim, taking a few mid range shots, and in the last Dream game she even made a couple of left handed layups.
