A lot of pressure on her , she was pressing .. she will be fine
Steph’s first year was up and down ,, she will settle in
Woah she’s Steph curry ? R u from the future ????
She shot the same percentage as in the preseason games.
Only difference is the WNBA record 10 turnovers.
Hoping in her rookie year she can break the all time WNBA PPG for a season which is only 25+ but with this clueless coach and bonehead team i'm not so sure
I think for her, turnovers are allowed in a triple double calculation. Love it
NO, there is no "adjusting" or "learning" sabotage and attack from IN the WNBA and her own team.
“Somebody on the Sun became the 5th leading scorer in the history of the league” 😂😂😂
DeWanna Bonner is her name
@@curtisclowe8294 If these guys want to showcase the most info about Caitlin Clark, that's fine, but give other players thier due and at least learn their names
@@Defender78draw money and people will remember you ..
@@curtisclowe8294holy mother of mary i thought you were joking.... That's her actual name... Her parents are killas
No one knew that until the game… They not gonna have another home game like they had all year until fever comes in town again 😂😂😂😂😂 Yall not gonna talk about her after she plays her second game and yall are making seems like yall were invested in her getting the 5th all Time score…
The Indiana Fever offense is too cluttered and Clark needs spacing which the Fever don't have
Its one game
Eh, personallyI tend to play as the Storm in MyWNBA in NBA 2k.
@@rasenganb41vtx and it was a freakin disaster....one game is enough to know the coach doesnt have a clue
How is Clark double teamed and no one is one to get a pass and take a shot? They knew coming in she would be double teamed. That is a coaching problem.
@@thomasedwinthomas Her teammates are isolation dribble down players not stand still open shooter's.
Iowa would have run the Fever out of the gym last night, those women need to get in shape and start running.
Nut job alert...
The Fever's coach... was questioning CC's conditioning after the first preseason game I think it was... my jaw hit the floor. WNBA were out of season CC, just played an entire collete season AND the entire NCAA tournament all the way to the final game. If she's tired at all... I think it's been earned. To question her conditioning... Every time the coach opens her mouth all I hear is "FIRE ME NOW" coming out of it...
@@TimMcVey She needs to go
She needs to go
lol the iowa fans are the worst for caitlin clark, your iowa team lost to a similarly excellent defensive team. Caitilin is great but she's had two weeks with these women...
Another perk of Caitlin Clark: Through her, I met the Pat McAfee show. 😊😊😊
Me too
wow really? awesome! ...Welcome to the family lol
I love Tye's idea for Bluder to go to Indy.
finally, someone understanding the meaning of two fake fouls in the first minutes. Thank you
What does fouls have to do with turnovers again? You just exposed how biased you are
@@littv1610 it was a simple and straight message to the rockie before reality coming. Leaving wrestling to unskilled and blowing two early fakes it will go as ever.
Those ghost fouls to start game ruined Clarks mojo...and her useless coach was pathetic...
Amazing she could muster 20 (heart of a champ) after the fake fouls...benching....no team game plan...no help from teammates and seemingly no one looking to get Clark the ball with opportunities for open looks....crazy stuff
@@johnnythunder196 “heart of a champ” what championships are you talking about again?
@@luisramirez5417- lol
Cope harder
What does fouls have to do with turnovers again? You just exposed how biased you are
She scored 20 and had a bad game. Things are looking good 👍
exactly everything went wrong and she still goes for 20...legend in the making
@@johnnythunder19610 turnovers…that’s a horrible game
What happened to her last night against the NY 🗽 then ?
@@TherealJess09 are you waiting for her to fail so you feel right?
@@eduardoFIFAshe lost and had ten turnovers. Why do you hate facts?
I saw them basically Mug CC and never get a foul. When CC barley touches some one they give her a foul- What's going on
3-4 times for sure she was fouled and nothing called
The W is physical. A lot of fouls don’t get called. It’s played more like old school basketball. She’s not special. She’s a rookie
It was a straight message to Caitlin from the welcoming woke committee
@@Lol-mi4ht you say that but the introduction on her was 2 bs fouls, not even sure there was contact on one of them. No consistency. Smells like bad officiating.
Yeah its strange that everyone seems to be out to get her because she is obviously the best thing that has happened to the W since Lisa Leslie was a celebrity. You would think that they would embrace CC but instead they seem like they dont want her around. Its not her fault that the media hyped her up. She had no control over that. Why are people punishing her for being popular...its like High School all over again.
I hope Pat slowly becomes unhinged as he watches the "product" provided by the WNBA. Alyssa Thomas had 7 turnovers with barely any ball pressure. Her best move is converting into a human bowling ball to knock down smaller players.
Omg yesssss with the slowness of Indiana last night. Like, they knew they were getting CC.. why weren’t they working more on their speed during the offseason? It seemed like no one was getting open and looking for the passes
I’ll also add Iowa was so much fun to watch BECAUSE of the speed… so if they want to keep the viewers from changing the channel, instead of making CC slow down, the rest of them need to speed it up
I was at the game. It was 80% Caitlin Clarke fans, 20% Connecticut suns fans
false because I was also at the game .... lots of Fever fans but nowhere near half
was it a mandatory work function or...?
He's right about the coaching change for the Fever, Pat💯 Did you hear what the coach said about her post game? It was definitely negative, almost haterous, to ME... My own word😅 But her old coach would be a great fit, plus she has respect for her and Coach gonna know how to play her. And if she can play wit next to nothing in Iowa, she now have a little talent on her team. But these WNBA players & officials need to & better stop "targeting" her, you're killing THE ONLY EXCITING THING IN THE WNBA. Get on board, or get dropped off.💯💪🏿🤷🏿
Coach Bluder said that she eventually had to rethink style of play Iowa was running when CC step on the court
She had the hind sight .CC proved to Bluder she could do it and you know the rest of the story Back to back
Nat.Champ games 3 time conf champs .Coach Sides has some tuff decisions to make
Can't believe I watched WNBA highlights lol😂😂
I'm at Sun games regularly, that place is never less than 3 quarters full, depending on the particular game - it is Connecticut,we do love our basketball here
But hasn’t sold out in over 20 years 🤔
Oh we’re watching in IA and they need to get Bluder to the Fever. Sides is NOT the Coach to ever make her successful at all. Sides has to go!
This was hilarious 😂😂 I Luv this show
Now we are in game 3 😂 they are in for a surprise 🎉
As soon as I herd Coach Bluder retired from Iowa, my prediction is the coach from the Fever will get let go either at the end of the season or if they get off to a bad start right then and the Fever will hire Lisa Bluder since she knows how to coach CC!!!!
Great point she would have beat Parkers 30 point first game if they had fallen.
If somebody gave me a bag I might be pumped about the WNBA as well
"might" being the key word lol 😂
lmao only way id care
the great ones adjust, pat well done with the mic's. let the backend now via compliment. legend.
Fever coach Sides has successfully destroyed Caitlyn's spontaneity/offense decision-making/enjoyment.
I love Caitlin Clark, glad she's in my home city/state too! The Iowa population adds another dimension both good and bad. The bad ones expect her to play the exact Iowa game that disappointingly led to their team to a loss to the South Carolina team. The good ones are expecting her to grow and increasingly become a dominant scorer to hopefully professional GOAT status. Good ones stay, bad ones, hit the hay.
The WNBA is probably the only "sport" that doesnt get tougher when you move from college to the league
Right. Unwatchably BAD sports.
As family guy put it back in the day, "thats for the FAN to decide"
The real game last night was the aces vs mercury game
the real game involved men lol
@@Rowsy91 you don't gotta push your sexual preference on everyone else. You like men good for you
@@coralross2947 lmao bro
@@Rowsy91 😂
It is funny watching people realize the WNBA is broken. It feels way too obsessed with creating jobs for older players and coaches with 90s basketball mentality.
It is crazy that college players have 4 weeks to prepare for a league where older mediocre players just throw their weight around to make up for a lack of talent.
The fever does need a coach change. Someone like CC should be focusing on long shots to take away that physical gimmick because new players need time before they can build muscle to handle the jobbers.
The league is absolutely stuck in the 90s, not to mention the seemingly high level of pettiness and jealousness of other people in the WNBA. People who say it is the same in NFL NBA when a hyped prospect comes in and all the vets want to give them a "welcome to league moment." It is not the same. These r people that have played in empty stadiums for years, had terrible TV ratings for years, been a joke in the eye of prossefional sports for years. There are people who have put their entire lives into trying to achieve what CC has in 2 years. There is undoudebtly going to be some serious jealousy. Espically when you play a game and its empty and then the next week you play the fever and its sold out.
@@richardwolf9149 Cameron Brink looks good. Watching her highlights actually looks like modern basketball. By next season, she'll probably have that spark sucked out of her by vets and coaches. This seems to be how ownership wants it for some reason.
SPOT ON ... FIRE the ref !
woulda had 30 points if she made more shots? lol
I only watched 1 minute of that game then I went back to watching the NBA playoffs
Very cool bro
So you were the one...
Commercial break I assume
AS I OFTEN SAY, "PEOPLE LIE...NUMBERS DON'T":
The TOP 3 highest-rated, most watched NCAA women's tournament games ever, ALL feature....Caitlin Clark. That is not a coincidence. IOWA played a game vs DePaul in Kinnick Stadium--an outdoor football stadium--and filled it with nearly 56,000 fans. That, too, is not coincidence. Nor was it because of anyone else. It was because of Caitlin Clark. People lie. Numbers don't. Nor do numbers see race or care about feelings. So huge is Caitlin Clark's impact, that it has actually been studied, dissected and quantified in dollars. Even the DRAFT drew millions of viewers. Even her 2 PRESEASON games BOTH broke attendance records.
Caitlin's debut regular season game--last night--was the most watched WNBA game in 23 years. It drew 2.13 million viewers. By contrast, the reigning WNBA champion Aces vs Mercury game drew a measly 464,000 viewers. THAT is the Caitlin Clark Effect. Haters can cope or try to split hairs all they want. As I said, numbers do not lie. And if you think they're crying NOWWW....just wait until Caitlin's Nike shoe launches and outsells BOTH Aja Wilson and Angel Reese--combined. The amount of tears will rival the Thailand tsunami...stay tuned!
It will be interesting. I tuned into a handful of Iowa games this past season and I rarely watch women’s basketball - college or pro. I won’t tune into a Clark WNBA game unless I’m sitting on the couch and there’s nothing else on. That’s my truth. No lie. Nothing against her. She’s amazing. So was/is Sabrina Ionescu, Diana Taurasi, etc. the WNBA is still a team game that lacks a bit of speed, power, dunks, etc. to grab my attention long term.
Everyone just witnessed the crowd we have at U of Iowa year after year, when she came through. It's a lot about her but it's about the vibe Iowa had as a team as well.
Dont mean jack s*** if shes not good
@@littv1610 - yawn. double yawn.
@@littv1610 And Angel Reese had 11 points.... by that logic, Angel Reese is worse than Cailyn Clark as a bball player....
Thanks for saying the quiet parts out loud.
2:02 what happened there? Lol
Think he is gonna comment on Harrison butker speech?😂
He's scared witless about being called "woke" again, so no.
Heck no. Political issues and ESPN is a no go. Remember, PAT sold his show and integrity away.
Not a chance. He's still scared witless about being called "woke" again. Plus since the Favre suit and apology he's going to be a lot more calculated in what he says.
@@luisramirez5417 They have commented on other stuff before. Honestly, I'm used to low-life idiots like Butker who call their own biases "religious views" and if his wife was smart she'd take the kids and all his money and run for the hills with her kids and find herself a better man, but she's going to stay with him because she knows she makes money through him being an athlete. She probably secretly resented him for saying what he did at that speech.
Add to that, he, like all overly religious idiots like him, try to spin it and say "It's just my religion" I was born and raised Catholic, and I call bs on anyone who says that kind of stuff and then says that they're holy and love all people. You don't love all people if you are biased against SOME people.
Refs chopped that game up.
One game in and blaming the refs
They gotta start playing with a full size rock before they can levelall the way up
And just think... Caitlin had a bad game and still scored 20pts - 3 assists - 2 steals. Future is goooooood!!! Better catch a fever and hop on this train ya'll!!!
😂😂😂😂😂😂 nah dog
@@I_Like_Turtle390 If the WNBA don't take full advantage of this right now they will disappear back into the shadows. They need to pump this up with Clark and Reese as much as possible.
10 turnovers. Double double
You ppl are delusional
For those of you new to women's basketball. If you fire that ref that made those terrible calls, he will just be replaced by someone worse.
Oh is bad officiating exclusive to the wnba?
Wonder what they thought of the Stewie screen
Bluder for the Fever
Taurasi and Plum weren't being picked up full court, or being double teamed all game. I agree Sides is clueless and way over her head. Lexie and Celeste not even touching the floor inexcusable. They need spacing and shooting. In my dreams I'd see AB traded for Brinks who would play way better with CC.
Fully agree about Lexi and Celeste
Then you have 3 perimeter players that struggle to guard at this level on the floor. Sure you open up the floor but at what cost on the other end
Shes the goat tho right?
Most turn overs in a debut lol
And the Kirk Cousins Award goes to.....
Remember how folks wanted to cook Skemes after his debut? It’s one game
I haven't watched the W since they disbanded the Houston Comets. I'll watch a game or two of Indiana's season.
10 turnovers? Ouch
i had no clue they played
People make it look so easy people forget shits had
Not even one of the CC fans calling for coach to be fired, but come on, no movement or purpose in the offense, star PF barely touched the ball, Clark needs pace, to have the ball, and people to move, none of these are happening. You dont fix things early, that record isnt getting much better, so id say watch that head coach closely
She's not bad necessarily, but she really isn't helping to develop the young players. Also, the Fever have had literally top 5 picks the last 4 years and haven't developed or gotten to be more competitive since then.
I’ve been watching for a long time. Some of these female athletes like Diana have been in a movie before. It’s a basketball movie that was in theaters years ago. The movie is called “Juwanna Mann.” It’s about a black man who goes into the WNBA as a woman and plays pro ball. I seen it when I was young. Some of them were featured in hip hop videos years ago.
its time to bring geno up
Pat is Caitlins buddy now 😂
All the sudden right? No wonder even her own HC hates her
@@luisramirez5417So criticizing players mean u hate them now? Yall are pathetic
@@littv1610 you must be from Iowa.
Eh, it took 2 seasons before the Storm with Brianana Stewart got competitive.
The overall brand of how they play as a whole needs to be be updated
Can we talk about her shooting NBA 3s !!🤯
Why so much focus on refs? Coaches? 🤔 🧐
Bluder 2024
CC#22 Fever
Lmao 🔥🔥🔥
Election time. It's time far another interview Pat
4:05 It was their first home opener sellout since 2003 but they've sold out other games. I know in the 2022 Finals it was a sellout
Only way CC can succeed is 1. Get rid of the coach 2. Bring in some foreign female baller 6.7 center 3. Bring some of her Iowa players. 4. Trade some current players. I’ll bet you fans, international and local will go crazy.
That’s an awful lot of conditions needed for her to succeed
4/11 behind the arc
Everyone calm down it’s her 1st official game. Let her get the flow of it and she will be unstoppable
ONLY CLARK HERSELF (and her family) can FIGHT this unprecedented level of industrialized sabotage, including her own team. Does Clark give a ----- now?
Pat is Bluder putting her staff together ,to take over when it crashes .Maybe be prepared for next year .Great Coach Bluder vs an assistant coach .Win win if they do this
Wheres the Charizard at??
Michael Jordan scored 16 points in his first career game… Unfortunately Indiana is not a very good team (Why they picked first in the draft). However I think Caitlan Clark will improve.. i have no doubt about that
nor Bulls were
You seriously comparing this overrated trash to MJ?
Unless the entire product gets better, the WNBA will continue to be a money pit. Clark can’t float the boat. I hope she cashes in early because a leaky ship doesn’t carry the cargo for long.
Get a new Coach!!!!!!!!!!
Yes, CC's game will take time. BUT- the coaching for Indiana was indeed lousy. You know that CC's going to draw double and triple team coverage- are you running plays to capitalize on the resulting defensive mismatches? No. Are they running enough picks and screens to get her open? No. Are you pushing taking the easy quick 2 shots- of which they were SO many opportunities? No. The ultimate goal is to get the ball in the basket, and the Fever's game plan, so far, is not capitalizing.
CC team needs to step up
The Fever need MR Griner🤔
Salesforce
I cant believe people had the audacity to say caitlin was "clamped". She scored 20. Thats not clamped.
5-15 10 turnovers is clamped and she scored 20 late in garbage time lol
@@Easy3Breezy 20 points is 20 points
@@356zno it isn’t
@@Easy3Breezy The Suns played their starters the whole game and I didn't see them ramp down the intensity. She hit the shots she was missing in the first half.
She needs to remember she is the NOOB now.
10 turnovers most ever by player in first game ?
I doubt if CC ever gets down on herself, but if she does, she should just queue up this video. Or better yet, come visit the studio again!
5-15 with 10 TO's is NOT hooping
Breanna Stewart played so much better than Caitlin Clark in tonight's game with the Liberty vs the Fever.
@@midnight-2021 yeah it’s gonna be that way allll season LMAO gassed her up now she’s getting everyone’s best
I mean even tho they lost, majority of the people like to watch CC play. Theres no other wnba player that can shoot the ball like catlin clark.
CC knows how to hustle... she plays run and gun... The rest of the Fever are too slow and too comfortable... no screens or picks to free up Caitlyn and break op the 3 on 1 coverages on her..
Her coach Side need to fight for Caitlin for the fouls. At least the second foul. Ref are haters
I dont need CC to win (a bonus if fever does), i just want CC to score as much as 3s as much as possible lol same as Spurs with Wemby. Viewers and ratings will increase because of her exciting shot making. No need to pressure her of winning coz thats plain crazy 🎉🎉🎉
yeah, because nobody cares about winning in sports anymore. Sports have evolved from the greatest competitions into trying to be the greatest individual show on a nightly basis and it kinda grosses me out. But I genuinely do hope CC, Sabrina, Angel and Paige (next year) and the rest of this generation of female athletes are able to capture the American audience and make some real money. I hate the idea of them making more money overseas but being dragged away from their friends and family for months at a time just trying to make a living doing what they love. More power to them.
@@mikeemayhem3201 nope i think you take it into extreme. It doesnt make sense to pressure CC and Indiana to win it all this first year together. Its impossible. So knowing that, then it makes perfect sense to use the games to test different plays and then continue to be effecient with it. Right now, they look like desperate to win than to learn.
@@nr14989 I do see where youre coming from on this, but I also see a different side, the business side of players and coaches. I dont really care about the big business aspect of it. Billionaires can squabble over that stuff all they want. But what I see is that not trying to win every game leads to changes. Coaches losing jobs, assistants, training staff, clubhouse staff, other non-star players getting traded/cut etc. These are people who all have lives and families and would potentially be put out if their team doesnt win. Its the often overlooked side of professional sports that we as casual fans dont think about, but hundreds of families each and every year are at risk of having their lives upended because their team didnt win games. Like I said, I really do hope this generation of players can can help change the current situation, but we are a fickle fandom. When the next big thing shows up we will be onto the next. Just ask the USWNT. They have been fighting the same fight for 25 years.
I hope all Caitlin haters know that the Fevers came last place in the WNBA last year while Reese and the other chics went to a good team in the WNBA. Clark wasn't bad at all just wait its just game 1
She can’t win championships. Plain and simple. She will have all the stats and “story” (like she had it so hard or something) but won’t win the championship at the end of the day.
Nobody hate Caitlin like you ppl hate reese..... pathetic
CC first 2 preseason games weren't played like preseason games... everybody wanted action, they got it an nobody complained about CC. Now that her first game was under par, all the bugs are coming out of the woodwork. I think CC will unleash her beast on her opponents soon.
i think we can all agree it was better before we had to pretend to care about wnba lmoa
I saw Pat's take on the 70K as him just showing who he is, he takes care of the people in his company. Pat's special in that regard though, not many heads of companies make such an effort to take care of their people. Pat is one of one!!!!
CC shot 33%, 20 points negated by 10 turnovers, Boston did nothing, poor coach with losing record.
Hey!
I love the 'If she had been great she would have been great.' sentiment. She wasn't. She was bang average. Treat her how you would treat any number 1 draft pick. She has talent, she may be great, but don't patronise her and us by trying to sell ice to Eskimos.
I'm going the other direction. I want Clark to foul out every game. Score 40. At least 15 turnovers. I will watch. Catching the fever
Caitlin Clark will bounce back
Yes, change the coach, please!!!!!
Come on Pat, don’t act like there aren’t obvious reasons why things are how they are, I’m rooting for Clark to be able to bring bigger and better things to the league but the league is why they pay 3 nearly 4 times more than an entry pay in the military
The Fever need work.... Connecticut dominated. They were the better team from start to finish.
CC will figure it out.
Always talking finance … this isn’t Bank of America, Merill Lynch .. this is professional basketball.
With most of her points coming when the other team stopped pressing her after the game was out of hand she was 5-15 from the field and 4-of-11 from behind the arc. for 20 points and TEN turnovers in a loss? That is not a special player no matter how much you want her to be. If she can not average 30 points a game no woman is getting another shoe for a long time.
Lol they lost by more points than she scored
It is kinda strange that the average shooting percentage in the NBA is higher than that of the WNBA. Strength and athletic ability are not really factors in a jump shot. Shouldn't men and women both have an equal chance of shooting a basket? Is it because of the average height? or maybe the style of play? I imagine there are more dominant centers and power forwards in the NBA and because they play closest to the rim, they have a higher FG percentage...just food for thought.
Clark was great, but let's be real, in the W, the Aces are on another planet, then there are the Liberty and the Suns, and everyone else is below that
they should trade her
The number of missed free throws and air balls was shocking
