Learned an interesting word that sums up everything I've been saying. Gatekeeping. It is a group of "influencers" who can be medium fish in a small pond. They don't want the pond to grow because it makes them nobodies and because they cant just say whatever they want. Right now the WNBA is a cesspool of messy shit from gatekeepers who insist on inserting all their drama and activism and others afraid to speak up for fear of getting blackballed. And they're going down fighting but I think it's reached a point where their power is rapidly disappearing. That's why you're starting to see even the legends of their sport like Sheryl swoopes get absolutely roasted to the point of probably jeopardizing her career
That control has slowly shifted and with Caitlin playing as well as hyped theyre starting to get called out on their bullshit. Even espn after their ridiculous rookie rankings is starting to hop on the Clark train. [Reply]
Indiana beat a bottom feeder again but Boston got 30, Mitchell 21 and Clark 26 & 12. The turnover woes remain though as she had nine this time to take her tally up to 204 turnovers. She's on course to obliterate the worst turnover average over a season in wnba and nba history. This is truly unprecedented. [Reply]

3 out of her last 5 games, Angel Reese had 6 turnovers in each game. That's hard to do for a post player that rarely handles the ball. Just admit it, Angel is an average player and Caitlin is one of the best players in the game. It's obvious to everyone but you and Sheryl Swoopes. [Reply]
45% from 5 feet. 39% overall. While not being a 3point shooter. People need to stop saying that she is even GOOD let alone was a rookie of the year candidate. Anybody will accumulate stats if they are allowed to play big minutes and have high usage. You wont win many games if ur post player shoots 39%. [Reply]

I think you should be banned for spamming. No one gives a shit about her turnovers and her "obliterating" the turnover record. There has never been a player in the WNBA like Clark and she's so good at passing that her turnover rates will be high, because the players in the league arent use to getting these types of passes and don't have a quick enough reaction time to catch the passes.

And zero people are going to care. They're winning and her play is a huge reason why. [Reply]
