Why is Caitlin Clark’s trash talking different than Angel Reese? It’s really not this difficult.
Clark’s was usually in the heat of competition and part of the natural flow of the game. They were subtle, if you blinked you missed it. Reese was end of game, game well in hand by double digits and followed Clark around the court for 20-30 seconds. It was way over the top - it was way too much of a “me” moment and trying way too hard and not in the natural flow of competing.
This is no different from MLB. A glance at a player you strikeout. A brief sword gesture walking off the field. A bat flip while jogging to 1B. It gets different when you’re up 8 runs in the 9th, strike a guy out and follow him back to his dugout to sword him. Or a monster bat flip and a pose at home plate up 6 runs in the 9th.
Reggie Miller’s choke signal to the Knicks was cold/awesome in the heat of the moment. Joe Burrow put a ring on it was walking back to his sideline.
There is a style to talking ish. And Angel Reese was a cheese ball and blew it. Drop a 3 ball on Clark to get the go ahead basket and drop it back on her. Swat her shot into the 3rd row and wag your finger. Don’t follow her around the court for 20 seconds.
I’ve always been proud of my community and my school that I grew up in, but this week put a whole new perspective on things. This town is one of a kind! ❤️

Only slightly less than 7% of high school players make it to one of these levels...if you do then you’re in that 7% and you should ALWAYS celebrate your journey because many would do anything to switch places with you!
I did not come to college to be quarantined the whole time because everywhere you go you get exposed. Which means I have to do online anyway. I just want to be able to go home and see my family.😒😒
Four cops shot in St Louis. 3 cops nearly killed in Buffalo. Cop shot in the head in Las Vegas. NYC cops shot at, run over, and otherwise attacked.
But let’s spend the day talking about Trump’s walk across the park, you idiots.
