The funny thing is if it weren't for Clark probably only a few on this board would know who Reese is. Let alone there being a constantly updated WNBA thread on CP.

It’s true

Angel Reese owes every bit of her stardom to CC. She should send her a Mother’s Day card

Meh. Kind of. Rodman could shoot, when he wanted to. Thing is, Reese can't shoot at all. The only thing she can do is rebound and play some defense.

This is one of those under the radar wild ass posts when you actually look into it a hair.

Angel Reese doesn't have the support Clark has?

Like wtf?

Angel Reese plays for the Chicago Sky. Over the last 11 years the Sky has made the playoffs 9 times, they won a championship in 2021 and lost in the finals during that time. This year with The Rebound Queen they have their worst winning percentage in 18 years.

Caitlin Clark plays for the Indiana Fever. They have not been anywhere close to good since 2016, which is the last time they were .500 and made the playoffs. In those 7 seasons they have 5 years in which they had less than 10 wins and 4 seasons with 6 or less wins. They have been Raiders bad. Now with the future GOAT they have there most wins since that 2016 season and are on there way to a playoff berth.

Lol I've already explained that Chicago are shorthanded. They traded away their best shooter and their best playmaker (Carter) is currently Injured. Couple that with Cardoso missing most of camp and missing games at the start of the season, plus having a ROOKIE HEAD COACH. This is a totally new organisation that doesn't compare to the previous teams at all.

Who was their best shooter?

Carter has missed 4 games all year.

The organization prefers fabricating click bait double double streaks for their uncoordinated glorified instagram model during garbage time and devolving to thug street ball when faced with quality opponents over actually competing to win.

Other players on the roster have asked to be traded as well.

I'm assuming he means Marina Mabery, who isn't there best shooter. She just seems to shoot a ton and not make much.

Averages damn near 14 FGs per game and only makes about 5 of them. She shot .381 from the field and only makes 41% of her 2 pointers.

Reese is an elite rebounder. And she’s a good defender. She is Andre Drummond except she has more defensive range and isn’t a liability at the FT line. Unlike Drummond she’s horribly inefficient under the basket. Her entire bag is built around motor. Her entire game is built on bully ball and reshooting off her misses. She has no post moves, she has a bizarre low release on short shit instead of going straight up, she is too ineffective outside of 5 feet to space the floor, and rather than shooting 30% off of horrendous heaves she should be kicking it out. They’ve gotta stop coddling the kid. The way she forces shots late in games and even is their primary tech FT shooter all to chase a meaningless record… why would the coach do that and I can’t imagine the team appreciates it. If she develops a post game and mikan drills til her hands bleed she’ll be one of the better bigs. But until then people need to stop insulting our intelligence with these bs comparisons.

Clark creates a lot of turnovers. Surprise, a qb is going to have more turnovers than a RB, and a rookie qb is going to have even more. Peyton had 28 INTs as a rookie. Clarks teammates are playing great but it’s because they are adapting to what clark uniquely does. Mitchell is thriving because clark pushes an absurd pace and Boston thrives because defenses blitz clark. And now they are unstoppable because Boston has learned to become Jokic. They are playing within a system clark is uniquely qualified to run. Clark makes the system run and she is setting the offense up for success. That’s why she’s not only the undisputed ROTY, let alone a candidate for mvp runner up.
She sets herself up for her own rebounds :-). She can pick up 3 rebounds on a layup and maybe 5 on a short jumper

It’s crazy how lucky the rest of the woman players are that they are playing the Caitlin Clark era. Feel sorry for all of the previous woman who played in the past and are not going to enjoy all of the benefits that Clark will generate. I saw a retired female basketball legend recently say this:

Basketball legend Nancy Lieberman on Caitlin Clark:

She is a hell of an athlete. She deserves all the Escalades she gets.

Interesting how UCB's narrative has switched since the start of the season. Sky opened the season at 4-5 and the Fever 1-8. It was all about the wins and not the talent. Since then the Sky is 7-16 and the Fever is 16-8 and now it is about the talent and not the wins.

If for some reason, CC gets hurt/she walks away/etc

The WNBA will lose most viewers. Other players are biting the hand that feeds them.

Even without rebounding her own misses she'd lead the league in rebounds. She's very very good at doing andre drummond or Clint capela things. Shes not an awful player. But forcing her onto a pedestal she doesn't belong is cringe and its unfair to her even for putting expectations on her she can't currently meet.
