Love Sue Bird. Sheâs so smart. The problems not CC, itâs the system or lack thereof. From what Iâve seen itâs complete chaos. I see why CC is frustrated with her coach.
The problem is you C.C fanboys and the media that can't handle the truth about Caitlin Clark. She has no defense and too many turnovers. Her đ handling skills sucks!! She misses more 3's than she makes. Highest turnovers in the WNBA 0-5 đïžđ overrated hype job đđ€Ł
She said âprobably the most pressure of any woman coming into the wnba.â No, She 100% without question has the most pressure. No womenâs basketball player, college or wnba has received this much publicity and media coverage.
@kevinwoody4967 I'm a Crimson Tide football girl. I'm new to watching Caitlin Clark/WNBA. Can she ask to be traded or could she have refused to go to the fever?
Thatâs not what she was saying yall donât know ball fr Caitlyn needs to expand her game she is looking like a Kyle korver out there and she canât move off ball she needs some time sheâll get it but donât expect her to shoot 30x to get 30 points like she did in college
Well I'm glad one of the WNBA veterans came out and said something respectful about Caitlin Clark. The thing is though, when Larry Bird went to the Celtics, when Michael Jordan went to the Bulls and Magic went to the Lakers. The offenses were tweaked to fit their playing styles. Christie Sides doesn't seem to be making any adjustments Caitlin Clark.
For great shooters, having supreme confidence in their shooting ability, is the single most important ingredient in their on court success. Even for great shooters this confidence can be more fragile than their actual physical ability to shoot at an elite level. This confidence is totally critical to a shooter! And .... it can easily be undermined or actually destroyed by a coach/system that doesn't recognize, support, and adapt to best utilize this great talent. Far better to move a coach out ASAP than to totally destroy a superb shooters confidence before the loss of confidence becomes irreversible!
Caitlin announced she was going to going to enter the WNBA draft on Feb 28th, so Coach Sites had two full months to plan an offensive system around CC before training camp started and that clearly didnât happen. Coach needs to go!
Of course it's going to be different than in Iowa. Because Iowa was custom built in system designed perfectly for her. Now she comes into the league and she is trying to fit in to a team that had started to build around their previous #1 draft pick, Aaliyah Boston. Boston and Clark are both new to the league. Boston only has had one season. They don't have top veterans helping them to grow. So yeah they are just going to have to keep working hard and figuring out what works best.
Yeap they didn't teach her no defense and really who did she play in Iowa other people like her. Her dad should have taken her to the hood where she could have learned or brought the hood to house so she could have learned all aspects of the game instead of just shooting.
Finished watching a couple W games and observed how one doesnât see much double teaming. Unlike CC with the Fever. As soon as she crosses the mid court, sheâs got in your face guarding throughout the time sheâs handling the ball. What gives? This isnât being done in the other games Iâm watching. Not even close.
Its called defense, it's called defense, the purpose of the game is to score more points than the other team and to stop them from scoring points, the basic concept of any sport. So no, there are not going to let the "best player that has ever picked up a basketball" mosey on down the court and score a ton of points. Again, NOT COLLEGE any more!
This is the main reason she is having adjustment problems at the moment. For some reason defense in college sucked! Running plays; pick and roll, pick and pop, give and go was not part of Iowa's arsenal, therefore, CC will have to adjust to the new game plan. There is no need to call out the coach, coaches, nor refs to justify her transition into the W
The problem is that you all propped her up as white Jesus while dismissing how good the rest of the WNBA is. She's playing the best players in womens basketball. Y'all should have let her develop into greatness instead of diminishing all the other incredible women.
CC has to adjust no one is gonna just let her run off screens and shoot the ball. She has to learn how to create her own shot. Iowa was built for her it's not gonna be that way in WNBA. Hopefully she'll figure it out but it's not gonna be easy because she can't jump she's basically a standstill shooter.
Everyone the media thought she was going in to Dominate and she has not yet. Thatâs a lot of pressure on her. For some it takes a while. Everyone thought Angel was going to fail and sheâs Dominating. Be careful folks how you down some and not others. Iâm just saying
The Excuses is crazy,the young lady needs time to develop,its new for her,let me say it slow,The Players are Bigger, Stronger,Faster like in every other Sport when you make the Transition get over yourselves and let the Girl grow at her own pace,yall want her to succeed for the wrong reasons thats why it wont happen for her that Way.
Totally different team & offense different coach and I believe she was nervous out there and pressing & over thinkingâŠNow if weâre 25games in & their 6-19 and sheâs averaging 13points 2rebs & 2asst on 37fg% and high in turnovers thereâs a problemâŠShe needs to just let the game come to her & be a complete guard & have also a mid range game
Caitlin is playing with a bunch of shitty players. If she had even one really good player who could yell at her teammates and tell them to move and run maybe things would be better. Plus, I've watched games in this league for years. I have never seen a player be guarded like Caitlin has. And once again, they can stay on her the lenth of the court and double team her when she hits the top of the key because her teammates just stand around and do nothing to help her. You have to really feel sorry for her. She is just being smothered. Like I said, I've never seen anybody being attacked like Clark has been.
What sheâs really adjusting to is her new team that happens to be the worst in the league. And Sue isnât completely accurate. Caitlyn had plenty of WNBA players questioning her talent. Caitlynâs frustration is recognizing the bone headed way her team is coached and plays.
It IS!!!!! They have finished last for two seasons in a row!! They play NO defense, and they have nobody to get rebounds or block shots. They are not using Aliya Boston the way they should. They should adopt the offense that Iowa used, where Clark passed it to their center and she just laid it up. I know it's not as easy to do this in the pros, but they have to try something different or they won't win a game!!
The coach got there a little before Aliyah Boston got there they both only been there a season Sides maybe 2.. itâs 2 games in.. Give the team time to gel.. she did go from NCAA to WNBA in a matter of weeks..
I just watched film of how other top players having lots of space. So, if she needed to adapt, why smother? Is that on purpose from the veterans or are they scared of her scoring on them?
Because with normal wnba players you can give some space and know they wonât shoot it from that far out . . . But with Caitlin you gotta guard as soon as she crosses half court.
Well Clark Don t have space because being a professional the players know something call defense . Playing defense dumbasses mean I not supposed to let you score or make it hard for you to score. Unfortunately for her in first two games she played four players that been on the all defensive teams for the last five years.. Clark got skills I will give her that but why she is listening to people on social media that canât play basketball or play dead with acting lessons is crazy .. sue bird and tarsus was trying to warn her if she wants to be a champion she will have to learn other things in basketball then just scoring.. besides didnât she try all the scoring in two college championship games if I remember correctly that didnât work out too good for her.
That really gets me - just because it has always has happened - it always will. they just don't want anyone to be the exception - that's sad, put her down from the start, if you give support she could be the exception, they say the same about American football players from collage to the pro's - my answer to that would be - Brock Purdy - who was given the right support - 1st year championship - 2nd year Superbowl - but from out side the team he got - SO MUCH HATE - they wanted him to Fail, all the pro's want to put themselves above all else,
If turasi or bird walked by me on the street I wouldnât even know who they were! Most people cannot even tell you the name of their WNBA team or if they even have a team! Most people couldnât even name three players in the WNBA.
It always takes time! And the narrative is always wrong. She was the best college player of all time. And now she is adjusting. Important is the team to giet her to her spots. She will be the rookie of the year. The narrative will change.
I believe theres alot of talented of rookies rn, but the pressure on her shoulders has got to be insane, not to mention being a #1 pick your going to a shit organization, shes faced the BEST defensive team and a WNBA RUNNER UP CHAMP back to back, and there schedule is set up against the craziest teams in the leauge talent wise and im sure people love aeeing her struggle but its unfair the pressurw she goes thru and all the trash talked about her, if she left the game and it went back to what it ust to be i wouldnr be surprised
Some of the stuff the coach says seems common sense, but listening to people who pay attention to basketball, it seems Caitlin is being used wrongly and she doesn't have much help. The league seemed to make the decision to shut Caitlyn down early with a front-loaded schedule. I don't think the WNBA wanted this kinda spotlight; with all the bad coaching, bad attitudes, calling the excited new fans dumb for wanting what they want. It's still garbage. They need 12 Caitlyn Clarks to bring enough excitement to this league to make it sustainable.
We know itâs gonna take time for Caitlin but her teammates have to help her they are not. Thank you Sue Bird for saying Caitlin is under a lot of pressure and she must be great no she does not Caitlin has to adjust to the WNBA but Christie has to play her right with her teammates or sheâs not gonna be happy. She wants to win but Indiana might not be the right fit for her maybe she needs to go to another team Lisa Bluder is still working for the Hawkeyes behind the senses. Lisa Bluder makes a million a year Christie Sides makes 500,000 I think the whole team needs a wake up call and say grow up and stop thinking about yourself Caitlin does not play like that she humble sheâs not a selfish lady at all.
Her team is shyt but let's be honest what other rookie is being double and triple teamed. And we don't care about what yall went through because everyone of yall veterans are re camping what yall said
I find it interesting that while she is promoting a documentary on her lifes success in Basketball she is also promoting transgender females playing in women's sports. Does this mean that she doesn't really care about the women trying to make a career in basketball going forward, and is she just interested in her own success? Pretty hypocritical!
@@WSG23 Doesn't look that way to me. Looks like she's the best baker with all them turnovers. Clark might be a bust. Media gassed her up and her fans set limits that nobody could achieve. I feel sorry for her.
Youâre the great sue! But sheâs putting points up! Hasnât played long everyone just calm down. Boston needs to run not sure if Boston likes that. The transition game tho huge
Its not just only Talking about It, It was the way It was said.. It was said sarcĂĄsticually , It was said with irony behind It comments.. thats what people IS talking about.. It was like no White girl IS going to come in the League and out plays any black WNBA veteron..
No one said that, but you. The narrative going around is that Clark is better than ALL the veterans, even the white ones. Did you see the two white women on the Liberty team that were shooting 3s against Caitlin's team and also in Caitlin's face left and right? No one said that Caitlin wasn't a good player. What is being said is that she is being overly hyped up by the media and her obsessed fans as the top woman's player in the world and these two games unfortunately proved that this simply is just not true.
Really, nobody mentions The Fever are the worst team in the league? That's how you get a 1st round draft pick, plus they got a new coach. It ain't realistic to think the worst team could come in and start beating the 2 best defensive teams in the league.
Let me applaud you . Out of rest of imbecile on the page you are another person besides myself that know players in the wmba can play defense. Those two teams just show Clark the levels to the game that taurasi was trying to warn her about.
How she was double and triple teamed, even locked down by 2 or 3 actually shows how much they fear her skill.. She has a huge target on her back and she will need the team to relieve some pressure.. She can't do it by herself.. That's why they call it a team..
It's a Reality These are Professional Women Athletes.. The Weight is on Her.. Hopefully she will Get an opportunity to Relax As The Season progress.. Again Thanks to CC and Angel Reese they flying private Jets.. All đ's on WNBA which means Revenue for Everyone..đ
Ok it's not going well for the great white hope people are talking about putting the blame on the coach that is bs the truth is that she is not a goat okay and her team just is not good
Oh cmon donât over analyze if the the WNBA players canât see what CC has brought to the game with young kids filling stadiums again then the owners better sit their players down either embrace whatâs happening or leave!
Come on people, its only been 2 preseason games and 2 regular season games. She is on a team with players she has never played with before or who have played with her. Lynn Dune said it in the beginning; they brought Clark here as a complimentary piece to what they already had. Its not just the CC show! Dunn said while Clark is a phenomenal shooter, she is also a great passer and that is what they are looking for to compliment the 2 low post players of Boston and Smith. t takes time to adjust to a new team, new coaches, new city, and the speed of the game. Clark said it her self she hasn't found her game prep rhythm yet. These are pros, the do their own thing, its not like college where everything is regimented and they players have everything done for them. I mean just look at how Plum has had to adjust since coming into the W. She was the Nations leading scorer when she came in the league and she wasn't shooting lights out either. I believe of Clarks overwhelming popularity the masses have lumped way to much expiations on the young lady. Give it a year a two in the league and she will be fine. For all those fokes calling for Sides to be fired, I hope to see all of your names lining up for a meeting with Lynn Dunn to interview for the job 'cause yall seem to know why more about Pro Basketball than a coach and GM who have been in the league for decades. GOOD Luck!
Seems like Caitlin Clark may be a little overrated being given an exaggerated talent I noticed that she always tries to run behind a pic to get her shut off as if she can't get her shot off unless she has somebody to block for her to go behind so that she can shoot that doesn't seem like a really talented basketball player all the basketball players I've ever seen they shooting jump and elevate over you and shoot over you they don't need no pic to shoot the basketball with you seems like Caitlin Clark can't shoot unless she has a pic to run behind so that the defender came play in front of her I can't defend her where is Kaitlyn's clogged one on one game her offense against the defensive player seems like she always need a screen or a pic in order to shoot the ball I'm just saying can a person really be called good if they can't shoot unless they get a screen or a pic from their teammate, I saw Angel Reese and she didn't have to have a screen or pick she rebounds the ball up under the backboard with the bigs and she goes right back up in front of the bigs up under the backboard and shootsnow that's good but then that's Angel Reese I don't know if Caitlin Clark is made up like Angel Reese and has the ability to jump in the ability that's what I'm talking about the jumping ability that's why Caitlin Clark always need a screen or a pic to get her shot off that's not a good player that's a player who can't jump
From what Iâve seen her team is just not that good so itâs going to be a full time struggle. Looks like her coach could be a micro manager type as well. Hopefully someone in their management steps in if it gets out of control
The joy for the #1 pick is fighting for last place in the WNBA. Fever got #1 pick because they are so bad. So turn CC lose! Put two players to shadow her and interfer with the defense. Put the other two under the hoop for offensive rebounds and put-backs. Fans what to see how CC played in college. Let her run the show. Tell the coach to sit down, she is a loser.
They put that pressure on her trying to pushnher ahead of everyone ,if she is who yall say she is,it will happen but dont do it at the expense of bashing others,That has been there way.Clark did the wave off of Raven,Raven made her pay,she started with the John Cena cant see me,When it was done back her fans didn't likebit.Whyndont she just play the game concentrate on getting better,leave the trash talking and other gestures to those who can take it as well as dish it.I know its not Clark its her obnoxious fans, Because of Social Media they dont want to admit that has made her climb and rise faster than others not the way she plays thats a lie,If what im saying is not true,watch how her fans start turning on her if she doesn't produce thats how social media works.They can build you in one day and tear youndown in another very quickly.If her Fans stop the others will stop because people want the girl to succeed as well as the others,Im actually rooting fpr CBrink and the other rookies moving Quietly but Making waves, developing at there pace no pressure, unfortunately for Reese,as long as Clark has a bad game they are going to make sure they highlight her flaws her mistakes,knowing both , actually all the rookies need time to find there Groove. We can change this for these ladies if we all root for them without the negativity.But if you come for the others im coming for yours and trust me I know it m way ahead, because im mot a race fam,im a basketball fan,the race fans die out quickly,beca they need the instant gratification,and it aint gonna happen,you can keep blaming the Coach,her team,the other teams defense after awhile every excuse gets old .I will ne here to the end saying the same thing because i hope Clark succeeds but not at others expense,Thats not how Sports fan roll!!!
Thanks Jon for breaking us content on the WNBA. I feel like they not giving her time to adjust. Everything is new to her. Diana Taursi i find was out of line. These vets should be encouraginging these rookies because truth be told CC and Angel Reese going to bring so much money to the league that everyone going to finally get more recognition and more money. I feel sorry for CC but i know she going rise to the occasion.
The way the WNBA season is scheduled there is little time to adjust. All the rookies typically go from the NCAA tournament to the draft to the league. It's that quick.
Stop, Sue Bird. Everything you just told was not true. Anyone can go back and see or read all she just said starting this video was a whale of a story. It was said about Clark when playing in the WNBA would not be like playing with 18-year-old (which that was not true as a whole), she would not have the success like in college with her play (really, in under 10 games being a pinball by the players and double team her stats are climbing towards the best in WNBA), and no one though (even herself) she would not have growing pains playing in the WNBA (that was stupid anyone thinking that who knows sports). The truth would be how she is seeing her team not really helping her along with the coach Sides. She is trying to be a teammate with teammates that seem not to want her because of rest of the other players not wanting her. There has been one person in the league that should be on their team and that is Seattle. It would seem what that team's coach said about Clark a few weeks back was a coach who could and maybe be more towards having her back. Sides do not have Clarks back, her teammates in these games do not have her back, and the other players talk nothing good about Clark more wanting to hurt her with cheap shots. What is worse would be the refs do not want her either with this lack of foul calling on other players and calls on her. The true fact to present the WNBA does not want Clark by the actions presented not by me but by the legions of the NBA players, many spoke persons on CZcams on sports, and people fans of basketball. Who has been haters are talk show host really knowing nothing of the game, other women players, and anyone believing this Sue Bird interview, which I did like Bird till recently. I like her play in the sport just not her backlash to Clark not wanting to lose favor of her fellow players.
I know it was coming all the excuses for Caitlin Clark in college you blame the team now in the league you going to blame the team how long will it take for you to realize she's just not that good
Lol⊠CC is what you call A BUST!!!!! That means your supposed to be good in The WNBA but your not because the LEVELS IS WAY HIGHER⊠THIS IS NOT SCHOOL!!! SHES A BUST RIGHT NOW!!! SHES DEFINITELY ON THE BUST PATH BASICALLY A PLAYER NOT BEING GOOD ENOUGH! Everyone canât play in the pros just because u play good against KIDS IN SCHOOL! This Grown Folks đ«”đ»đ€Łđ«”đ»
The Fever coach is in over her head. The whole team looks lost.
Agree. The team efficiency against NYL wasâŠ

She's horrible!

She said âprobably the most pressure of any woman coming into the wnba.â No, She 100% without question has the most pressure. No womenâs basketball player, college or wnba has received this much publicity and media coverage.
You can handle the pressure or you can't
Sue Bird is beating around the bush,but she's trying to say Caitlin Clark's team is shit.
Yep. That's exactly what I was thinking
Total realization.. except for a trade getting the first pick means a terrible team
@kevinwoody4967 I'm a Crimson Tide football girl.
I'm new to watching Caitlin Clark/WNBA. Can she ask to be traded or could she have refused to go to the fever?

Caitlin remember what one of your great team mate texted you, "Just be You". A wise person who has your back since day one.
Media will hype you up and hype you down. Itâs on her to show and prove.
I think the media is making Clark too much of a superhero that she is going to transform WNBA?
Yes, CC is having growing pains. It's called Coach Sides!
Thank you. Why are the Fever owners putting up with this.
Praying for CC to succeed. God bless her đđœđ€
Iowa was setting picks so she could get loose and shoot. CC's players are just standing around.
Love you Sue Bird â€
Breaking in with Fever has got to be a challenge.
Well I'm glad one of the WNBA veterans came out and said something respectful about Caitlin Clark. The thing is though, when Larry Bird went to the Celtics, when Michael Jordan went to the Bulls and Magic went to the Lakers. The offenses were tweaked to fit their playing styles. Christie Sides doesn't seem to be making any adjustments Caitlin Clark.
Youâre really comparing her to those three players. LMAO

If Clark was on a better team with a better coach it would have been much different.
Don't f forget some players and coach
1st game 20pts...not too bad
â@@thabangmotea6025 with 10 turnovers. Very bad
â@@thabangmotea6025 but after the first game she started getting exposed
It couldn't possibly be that she is now facing the best players that she's ever faced.
The Fever need to run the DHO like the Sacramento Kings with Boston screening and handing off to Clark
CC has to adjust no one is gonna just let her run off screens and shoot the ball. She has to learn how to create her own shot. Iowa was built for her it's not gonna be that way in WNBA. Hopefully she'll figure it out but it's not gonna be easy because she can't jump she's basically a standstill shooter.

It's not growing pains. Teammates can't keep up with her pace.
WOW! Thanks, Sue, the magician, Bird!
I donât think the coach and her match. Get rid of the coach and let her play a ton of minutes.

The problem is a few of the girls on the fever canât make layups from a few feet away from basket.

Fever coach is lost! Need to get some advice from CC's college coach on how to mesh CC to the whole team
Theyâre not playin Caitlin style of basketball. She seems to be competing with the other guards on her team that want to be the stars.
she's played 2 games...... she will settle in and then put up the numbers.
Just let her play every thing will work out for her sheâs just too good and sheâll figure it out sheâs a great player and very intelligent
Blame the MEDIA for any Overreaction... ijs
And her insane fans for thinking that the WNBA was just a bunch of scrubs that she'd walk all over.
I wonder what sheâs got to say why the other rookies are doing just fine
Because they're on better teams. 1st pick goes to the đ© team.
The other players are not the all time leading scorers in NCAA history.
None of the other rookies came close to Caitlin's offensive stats...
Sheâs playing for the Washington Generals
"4x wnba superstar legend, sue bird"
Caitlin is playing with a bunch of shitty players. If she had even one really good player who could yell at her teammates and tell them to move and run maybe things would be better. Plus, I've watched games in this league for years. I have never seen a player be guarded like Caitlin has. And once again, they can stay on her the lenth of the court and double team her when she hits the top of the key because her teammates just stand around and do nothing to help her.

Go no coach, just let em straight up ball.
It IS!!!!! They have finished last for two seasons in a row!! They play NO defense, and they have nobody to get rebounds or block shots. They are not using Aliya Boston the way they should. They should adopt the offense that Iowa used, where Clark passed it to their center and she just laid it up. I know it's not as easy to do this in the pros, but they have to try something different or they won't win a game!!
It seems they need to play her at the one. That way she can create for herself and her teammates.
Very curious to see whatâs the game plan for Saturday game from the coach! Is it a make or break it for Sides?
Two games into a 40 game season and yall calling for the coach head. Smh...
The coach got there a little before Aliyah Boston got there they both only been there a season Sides maybe 2.. itâs 2 games in.. Give the team time to gel.. she did go from NCAA to WNBA in a matter of weeks..
Sabrina in the post game interview says it best Caitlin has what it takes to not let early struggles bother them.
It's going to take time for her
She's now in the pros
Great offensive player but have to learn defense
Indiana Fever is not the place for her. PERIOD.
You're right.
I just watched film of how other top players having lots of space. So, if she needed to adapt, why smother? Is that on purpose from the veterans or are they scared of her scoring on them?
Exactly. They are afraid
Because with normal wnba players you can give some space and know they wonât shoot it from that far out . . . But with Caitlin you gotta guard as soon as she crosses half court.
Well Clark Don t have space because being a professional the players know something call defense . Playing defense dumbasses mean I not supposed to let you score or make it hard for you to score.

Clark got skills I will give her that but why she is listening to people on social media that canât play basketball or play dead with acting lessons is crazy .. sue bird and tarsus was trying to warn her if she wants to be a champion she will have to learn other things in basketball then just scoring.. besides didnât she try all the scoring in two college championship games if I remember correctly that didnât work out too good for her.
@@larryhinton991 To be fair the world ainât ever seen Caitlin on a great team before
Bro what yall sound stupid scared to let somebody score. lol yall want her to have it easy lmao yall donât know basketball
That really gets me - just because it has always has happened - it always will. they just don't want anyone to be the exception - that's sad, put her down from the start, if you give support she could be the exception, they say the same about American football players from collage to the pro's - my answer to that would be - Brock Purdy - who was given the right support - 1st year championship - 2nd year Superbowl - but from out side the team he got - SO MUCH HATE - they wanted him to Fail, all the pro's want to put themselves above all else,
The BD want to see her fail and back to begging and complaining they ainât getting paid enough
Not so much what you said! Itâs how you said it!
If turasi or bird walked by me on the street I wouldnât even know who they were! Most people cannot even tell you the name of their WNBA team or if they even have a team! Most people couldnât even name three players in the WNBA.
I think it is the way it was said, that sounds bad and jelousy among wnba players, so the fans reacted.
Right on. NBA player have several months of practice from college to pros. WNBA only had a few weeks. It takes time.
You mean, what Taurasi said?
oh we feel so sorry for poor Caitlin!đđđđđđđ

@gr5382
If you got sarcasm.. then you can figure out the âweâ part!!
đđđ
@gr5382 Yeah right
I think new coach after team goes 2-38
It always takes time! And the narrative is always wrong. She was the best college player of all time. And now she is adjusting. Important is the team to giet her to her spots. She will be the rookie of the year. The narrative will change.
I believe theres alot of talented of rookies rn, but the pressure on her shoulders has got to be insane, not to mention being a #1 pick your going to a shit organization, shes faced the BEST defensive team and a WNBA RUNNER UP CHAMP back to back, and there schedule is set up against the craziest teams in the leauge talent wise and im sure people love aeeing her struggle but its unfair the pressurw she goes thru and all the trash talked about her, if she left the game and it went back to what it ust to be i wouldnr be surprised
Mate Martin is t going thru that Cameron brink is t targeted like clark
Some of the stuff the coach says seems common sense, but listening to people who pay attention to basketball, it seems Caitlin is being used wrongly and she doesn't have much help. The league seemed to make the decision to shut Caitlyn down early with a front-loaded schedule. I don't think the WNBA wanted this kinda spotlight; with all the bad coaching, bad attitudes, calling the excited new fans dumb for wanting what they want. It's still garbage. They need 12 Caitlyn Clarks to bring enough excitement to this league to make it sustainable.
We know itâs gonna take time for Caitlin but her teammates have to help her they are not. Thank you Sue Bird for saying Caitlin is under a lot of pressure and she must be great no she does not Caitlin has to adjust to the WNBA but Christie has to play her right with her teammates or sheâs not gonna be happy. She wants to win but Indiana might not be the right fit for her maybe she needs to go to another team Lisa Bluder is still working for the Hawkeyes behind the senses. Lisa Bluder makes a million a year Christie Sides makes 500,000 I think the whole team needs a wake up call and say grow up and stop thinking about yourself Caitlin does not play like that she humble sheâs not a selfish lady at all.
Her team is shyt but let's be honest what other rookie is being double and triple teamed. And we don't care about what yall went through because everyone of yall veterans are re camping what yall said
đ đđđangel ,brinks all dogged that #1 pick high profiles attention
How can anyone compare WNBA to NBA? Coach and current and past player's envy her! Especially DT!!
If shoots the ball better, it will make everything else better. It is as simple as that.q
Jason Whitrock was exactly right. Clark should just drop out. Go home and call it a career. The WNBA is a circus not a basketball team.
I find it interesting that while she is promoting a documentary on her lifes success in Basketball she is also promoting transgender females playing in women's sports. Does this mean that she doesn't really care about the women trying to make a career in basketball going forward, and is she just interested in her own success? Pretty hypocritical!
Iâm confused, as a newbie to wnba I thought Boston was supposed to be good?
I was surprised at how Jones dominated that match up.
She won Rookie of the Year in the WNBA last year.
You could say the same thing about Caitlin.
@@georgewmitchell sheâs still best player in team while being double and triple teamed. Boston is non existent
@@WSG23 Doesn't look that way to me. Looks like she's the best baker with all them turnovers. Clark might be a bust. Media gassed her up and her fans set limits that nobody could achieve. I feel sorry for her.
Youâre the great sue! But sheâs putting points up! Hasnât played long everyone just calm down. Boston needs to run not sure if Boston likes that. The transition game tho huge
Its not just only Talking about It,
It was the way It was said.. It was said sarcĂĄsticually , It was said with irony behind It comments.. thats what people IS talking about..
It was like no White girl IS going to come in the League and out plays any black WNBA veteron..
No one said that, but you. The narrative going around is that Clark is better than ALL the veterans, even the white ones. Did you see the two white women on the Liberty team that were shooting 3s against Caitlin's team and also in Caitlin's face left and right? No one said that Caitlin wasn't a good player. What is being said is that she is being overly hyped up by the media and her obsessed fans as the top woman's player in the world and these two games unfortunately proved that this simply is just not true.

What so shocking about this post nothing click baiting is real đđđ
Really, nobody mentions The Fever are the worst team in the league?
That's how you get a 1st round draft pick, plus they got a new coach.
It ain't realistic to think the worst team could come in and start beating the 2 best defensive teams in the league.
Let me applaud you . Out of rest of imbecile on the page you are another person besides myself that know players in the wmba can play defense. Those two teams just show Clark the levels to the game that taurasi was trying to warn her about.
How she was double and triple teamed, even locked down by 2 or 3 actually shows how much they fear her skill.. She has a huge target on her back and she will need the team to relieve some pressure.. She can't do it by herself.. That's why they call it a team..
The fans need to dial back and stop pointing fingers at other players thinking theyâre hating on this young lady!
It's a Reality These are Professional Women Athletes.. The Weight is on Her.. Hopefully she will Get an opportunity to Relax As The Season progress.. Again Thanks to CC and Angel Reese they flying private Jets..
All đ's on WNBA which means Revenue for Everyone..đ
Ok it's not going well for the great white hope people are talking about putting the blame on the coach that is bs the truth is that she is not a goat okay and her team just is not good
The Fever will set a record of the total game loss this season: 0-40
Thatâs the Truth Caitlin Crybabies!!!!!!!!!!đđ
Kate
Everybody seems to forget the Fever is the worst team in the league which is why two years in a row they got to make the number 1 draft pick.
Oh cmon donât over analyze if the the WNBA players canât see what CC has brought to the game with young kids filling stadiums again then the owners better sit their players down either embrace whatâs happening or leave!
Come on people, its only been 2 preseason games and 2 regular season games. She is on a team with players she has never played with before or who have played with her. Lynn Dune said it in the beginning; they brought Clark here as a complimentary piece to what they already had. Its not just the CC show! Dunn said while Clark is a phenomenal shooter, she is also a great passer and that is what they are looking for to compliment the 2 low post players of Boston and Smith. t takes time to adjust to a new team, new coaches, new city, and the speed of the game. Clark said it her self she hasn't found her game prep rhythm yet. These are pros, the do their own thing, its not like college where everything is regimented and they players have everything done for them. I mean just look at how Plum has had to adjust since coming into the W. She was the Nations leading scorer when she came in the league and she wasn't shooting lights out either. I believe of Clarks overwhelming popularity the masses have lumped way to much expiations on the young lady. Give it a year a two in the league and she will be fine. For all those fokes calling for Sides to be fired, I hope to see all of your names lining up for a meeting with Lynn Dunn to interview for the job 'cause yall seem to know why more about Pro Basketball than a coach and GM who have been in the league for decades. GOOD Luck!
Seems like Caitlin Clark may be a little overrated being given an exaggerated talent I noticed that she always tries to run behind a pic to get her shut off as if she can't get her shot off unless she has somebody to block for her to go behind so that she can shoot that doesn't seem like a really talented basketball player all the basketball players I've ever seen they shooting jump and elevate over you and shoot over you they don't need no pic to shoot the basketball with you seems like Caitlin Clark can't shoot unless she has a pic to run behind so that the defender came play in front of her I can't defend her where is Kaitlyn's clogged one on one game her offense against the defensive player seems like she always need a screen or a pic in order to shoot the ball I'm just saying can a person really be called good if they can't shoot unless they get a screen or a pic from their teammate, I saw Angel Reese and she didn't have to have a screen or pick she rebounds the ball up under the backboard with the bigs and she goes right back up in front of the bigs up under the backboard and shootsnow that's good but then that's Angel Reese I don't know if Caitlin Clark is made up like Angel Reese and has the ability to jump in the ability that's what I'm talking about the jumping ability that's why Caitlin Clark always need a screen or a pic to get her shot off that's not a good player that's a player who can't jump
From what Iâve seen her team is just not that good so itâs going to be a full time struggle. Looks like her coach could be a micro manager type as well. Hopefully someone in their management steps in if it gets out of control
2 games đđ growing pains? First game 20pts which was top 5 in the whole league đ
10 turnovera
@TyStreets34 it's the wnba đ€Ł turnover city
She a good shooter but she canât handle the pressure when the other player but that pressure on her
I don't understand why people are giving a pass to the WNBA players anger with CC . . . it's obvious they are deeply jealous of her fame and fortune.
Another reach đ
We doubt that she is going to make it with this team and this coach...the chemistry just isn't there
Didn't Clark jsut break the record for a rookie scoring in the first ten games? wtf is this chick talking about?
The joy for the #1 pick is fighting for last place in the WNBA. Fever got #1 pick because they are so bad. So turn CC lose!
Put two players to shadow her and interfer with the defense. Put the other two under the hoop for offensive rebounds and put-backs.
Fans what to see how CC played in college. Let her run the show. Tell the coach to sit down, she is a loser.
Cc has to take control of this team..she's the only one who wants it fuck the coach. Be a leader and take control
They put that pressure on her trying to pushnher ahead of everyone ,if she is who yall say she is,it will happen but dont do it at the expense of bashing others,That has been there way.Clark did the wave off of Raven,Raven made her pay,she started with the John Cena cant see me,When it was done back her fans didn't likebit.Whyndont she just play the game concentrate on getting better,leave the trash talking and other gestures to those who can take it as well as dish it.I know its not Clark its her obnoxious fans, Because of Social Media they dont want to admit that has made her climb and rise faster than others not the way she plays thats a lie,If what im saying is not true,watch how her fans start turning on her if she doesn't produce thats how social media works.They can build you in one day and tear youndown in another very quickly.If her Fans stop the others will stop because people want the girl to succeed as well as the others,Im actually rooting fpr CBrink and the other rookies moving Quietly but Making waves, developing at there pace no pressure, unfortunately for Reese,as long as Clark has a bad game they are going to make sure they highlight her flaws her mistakes,knowing both , actually all the rookies need time to find there Groove. We can change this for these ladies if we all root for them without the negativity.But if you come for the others im coming for yours and trust me I know it m way ahead, because im mot a race fam,im a basketball fan,the race fans die out quickly,beca they need the instant gratification,and it aint gonna happen,you can keep blaming the Coach,her team,the other teams defense after awhile every excuse gets old .I will ne here to the end saying the same thing because i hope Clark succeeds but not at others expense,Thats not how Sports fan roll!!!
Shouldn't you rename your Channel as you seem to specialize in videos dealing with Caitlin Clark?
Thanks Jon for breaking us content on the WNBA. I feel like they not giving her time to adjust. Everything is new to her. Diana Taursi i find was out of line. These vets should be encouraginging these rookies because truth be told CC and Angel Reese going to bring so much money to the league that everyone going to finally get more recognition and more money. I feel sorry for CC but i know she going rise to the occasion.
The way the WNBA season is scheduled there is little time to adjust. All the rookies typically go from the NCAA tournament to the draft to the league. It's that quick.
Not with this current team sheâs in but in a few years she mightâŠ.
CC fans are going to blame everyone but CC but itâs her own fans fault for putting so much expectations from her
Is it fair to wonder if Caitlin lacks ideal size for the pro level?
She needs to hit the weight room this off season
no the pro game is just faster, and she needs to get used to the speed plus she needs to push her teams to speed up with her.
@@ReadR00ster1 exactly and needs to learn how to play defense
I knew this would happen.I posted this before.When my girl locked her down in the playoffs I knew she would have a problem in the pros.
They never seem to pass the ball to her. Every once in a while.
Stop, Sue Bird. Everything you just told was not true. Anyone can go back and see or read all she just said starting this video was a whale of a story. It was said about Clark when playing in the WNBA would not be like playing with 18-year-old (which that was not true as a whole), she would not have the success like in college with her play (really, in under 10 games being a pinball by the players and double team her stats are climbing towards the best in WNBA), and no one though (even herself) she would not have growing pains playing in the WNBA (that was stupid anyone thinking that who knows sports). The truth would be how she is seeing her team not really helping her along with the coach Sides. She is trying to be a teammate with teammates that seem not to want her because of rest of the other players not wanting her. There has been one person in the league that should be on their team and that is Seattle. It would seem what that team's coach said about Clark a few weeks back was a coach who could and maybe be more towards having her back. Sides do not have Clarks back, her teammates in these games do not have her back, and the other players talk nothing good about Clark more wanting to hurt her with cheap shots. What is worse would be the refs do not want her either with this lack of foul calling on other players and calls on her. The true fact to present the WNBA does not want Clark by the actions presented not by me but by the legions of the NBA players, many spoke persons on CZcams on sports, and people fans of basketball. Who has been haters are talk show host really knowing nothing of the game, other women players, and anyone believing this Sue Bird interview, which I did like Bird till recently. I like her play in the sport just not her backlash to Clark not wanting to lose favor of her fellow players.
I know it was coming all the excuses for Caitlin Clark in college you blame the team now in the league you going to blame the team how long will it take for you to realize she's just not that good
Lol⊠CC is what you call A BUST!!!!!
That means your supposed to be good in The WNBA but your not because the LEVELS IS WAY HIGHERâŠ
THIS IS NOT SCHOOL!!!
SHES A BUST RIGHT NOW!!! SHES DEFINITELY ON THE BUST PATH BASICALLY A PLAYER NOT BEING GOOD ENOUGH!
Everyone canât play in the pros just because u play good against KIDS IN SCHOOL!
