Well, there you go, Aja' Wilson's footwork is the reason the WNBA is thriving.
Lol.
That's not what she's saying maybe you should pay more attention and listen instead of being one minded she speaking on the talent of the women's game.
Is that the only thing you hot out of this discussion? You Caitlin fans are so nasty and messy.
A’ja Wilson is hands down the best player and she’s definitely fun to watch play! CC at this point in her career doesn’t even compare point blank period!
@@arthurnelson4581 That's not how attention works. I don't owe them my attention. I'm posting for free. This is charity. YOUR WELCOME.
What was the purpose of this interview? Is it to placate critics who begrudge a generational talent for drawing new attention and popularity? Are you diminishing Caitlin’s success by suggesting people only relate to her because her jump shot seems attainable? Steph Curry’s play might seem more achievable than dunking from the free throw line, but the WNBA never showcased such athleticism. Caitlin Clark’s performance is astounding, resembling an NBA player’s skillset for the first time. So, it’s the opposite for Caitlin compared to Steph.
What does “institutional history” in covering the WNBA have to do with resenting Caitlin Clark? Claiming the WNBA wasn’t popular because games weren’t on network TV is a false narrative. Look at attendance and merchandise sales-the WNBA never had the audience to justify network TV slots. When the WNBA launched, it had significant hype, but it waned because the games were perceived as dull, and the players weren’t comparable to the men’s game. Caitlin and a new generation of players have revitalized interest, bringing in new audiences. Be grateful for this. The WNBA didn’t create this phenomenon, but they are benefiting from it. Embrace it instead of being resentful that people now care.
The WNBA and commentators like Jemele need to confront the truth. There’s a reason for the lack of previous viewership-it’s because the WNBA was seen as a joke by many for decades. It had no substantial audience. The “double standard” argument is rooted in resentment and jealousy. Being angry at people calling out this jealousy only confirms what you’re trying to deny. While there is misogyny in these discussions, if the accusation fits, it’s hard to ignore. You’re creating this narrative with your words and actions.
You're running from the merit argument. In fact, you don't even address it. CC22 is half the player (statistically) than what she was at Iowa. It was at Iowa where she got her popularity. Why? Because she could shoot a deep 3 (individual talent) which wasn't common in the NCAA until the last couple years, and more importantly, the success of the team...Iowa going deep in the NCAA Tournament ...was attributed to her (which is a false narrative in and of itself). But, if Iowa didn't go deep in the NCAA Tournament, do you really believe that CC22 would be as popular? Why? Iowa would not get the air time on TV if they didn't win. If Iowa doesn't get the air time, CC22 doesn't get the exposure. She would be anonymous. Thus, as long as CC22 individual game translates into team wins, she'll remain popular. The Fever are a horrible team. CC22 must show that her game translates into team wins. This year she'll get a pass from her fans, and non-fans. She's tired and been playing basketball non stop since last November without a break. But next year...that's the pressure year for CC22. The Fever most show improvement over the previous year or that popularity will take a hit. Right now, CC22 isn't statistically close to what she was in college. The W is a different league with better players night in and night out. Give her time to adjust, and the league to adjust.
@@michaellacross5266 You're saying her fame is due to her college team's performance (which is why they got exposure- it was earned) and her stardom is due to her skill. Rookies have made it before, and one could argue that Caitlin’s stats this year stand shoulder to shoulder with Diana Taurasi's. If all of this was based on merit you would be consistent there.
The real question is if she was left off because she isn’t good enough. Well, according to USA Today, they left her out to avoid the fuss over her playing time. That doesn’t sound like she wasn’t good enough. It sounds like they were worried about team chemistry because the other players would be jealous of the attention she is and would get during the Olympics.
How well did that work? Didn’t help that the head coach piled on and talked down to her and her stardom- dismissing all the goodwill and fanfare she is bringing to women’s basketball. Now the uproar is over her exclusion, a move that reeks of the league's fear of new fans. It’s peculiar-complain about lack of appreciation, then slam the door when it comes. The league must grasp that fans are their lifeblood. Give the people what they want!
By the way- this has happened before. Jordan got freezes out of the All Star game because the men were jealous of him. I don’t subscribe to the idea that woman don’t support each other , but I think we can call out petty resentment when we see it.
MJ was bitter and petty too. He made sure Isiah Thomas didn’t get to be on the Dream Team even though he rightfully deserved it. They blamed that on team chemistry too. Of course the difference there is Michael Jordan was the biggest draw in the world. Now over 3 years we’re seeing pettiness and jealousy ice out another generational talent.
Sorry meant over 30 years later… history is repeating itself again. This isn’t a woman thing it is a human thing. People are jealous and we can forgive them for it but stop perpetuating the excuses. They screwed up not putting her on the team.
J. Hill was literally on Around the Horn at times talking about every single sport…but now she says other people can’t talk about sports they don’t know as well as others. 🧐🙄
So I guess that’s the end of women discussing the NFL according to her standards.
You failed English Comprenhension
Did she say that?
Turnover Clark is awful. She doesn't score enough points to make up for her turnovers. Turnover Clark is also going to completely obliterate the single season turnover record.
@@joemillz10wait until the coach takes the handcuffs off her. She needs to be shooting 20-25 shots a game
Miss Hill with the facts and the much needed context! The WNBA people know their league better than the casuals and the newcomers. All you gotta do is listen and learn and quit trying to force fake narratives just because you’re a Stan of CC!
Basketball is basketball. Literally NO NEED for a PhD in in the WNBA. Anyone who is a fan of basketball can understand the WNBA.
I learned a lot of important background from Jannele. My perspective has changed regarding the current discussions around the WNBA.
When a customer (fan) walks through the door, you welcome them with open arms. Maybe during small talk you ask how did you learn about us, and say thank you for your business. But you NEVER shame or guilt them for not coming sooner! 🤔
Agreed. Do you think that the "customers" for the Olympics are the same customers for the W?
Have you ever played sports? This is a competition not a girl's club. SMH.
@@bria1660 Thats all well and fine....just no more discussions on why they don't make as much as the men please.
The likes of Jemele Hill gatekeeping is exactly what turns people off womens sports and WNBA.
It's not enough to watch you must watch for the right reasons and you must only appreciate the players the likes of her want appreciated.
It's proof that a lot of WNBA fans and womens sports fans over the years have mainly watched womens sports as a political and feminism gesture and not because they love the sport.
Caitlin Clark is above all this because she's box office and people watch her because they love the way she plays not for supporting women, and the likes of Jemele Hill can't stand this.
Well said is right.. Some people love to spin narratives. Also, anyone can learn footwork wtf 🤦🏽♂️
I left this show with covid shot. now you beat down a young new star hard too listen to this content.
Very intellegent young lady, and JJ is a star in in his iwn right and really liked watching him play!!
Jemele is wrong, it's not the network. The product was not what people wanted. Finally the product has become interesting with Caitlyn Clark and her modern game.
Her game isn't modern. The NBA, International, and the NCAA have adopted the 3 ball a while ago making it a must for every position on the team. Now, CC22 is putting half the stats of her college game. Her 3 point efficiency is miserable right now. Why? She's facing better players. The W will adjust to a more distance shooting league because the math/analytics will force them to emphasize the players to practice that 3 point shot. But if the players can't shoot the 3 ball at .400 or better, the "product" you want to see will never materialize. Right now, CC22 needs to shoot the 3 ball at .400 or else she'll become a liability to the team. Her value is shooting the 3 ball at .400. She's tired (been playing since last November non-stop) and it shows in her stats and body language on the court. Next year is the year where she'll be judged on her actual game. Fatigue will not be an issue. Can she duplicate her college game statistically in the W? That's what I'm looking forward too. I think/hope she can!
@@michaellacross5266 Caitlyn Clark's game is as modern as Steph Curry with logo threes, great ball handling and deft passing. She is being picked upm94 feet from the rim and is game planned b y every team she plays. Everyone knows what her opponents and even some of her teammates have it in for her one way or another, despite all of it, she is currently 5rh in. assists, 15th in scoring and top 12 in steals. She is tired and needs to adjust to the size and speed of the WNBA. All rookies go through it in both the NBA and WNBA. With strength and conditioning this offseason she will be better prepared and improve on her efficiency and high turnovers. The way she handles herself ion and off the court, her success is all but guaranteed, The League, players and refs need to protect her better like they did MJ for example the foul by Chennedy should have easily be called a flagrant one, The world is excited about CC and we all hope for her to succeed to lift the WNBA. I would be remiss if I didn't mention that looking at the WNBA closely, there is alot of ugliness and unprofessionalism rampant in the league that needs to be cleaned up, You won't see or here some of the recent interviews that exposes many shortcomings of both league, coaches and players, They need to clean it all up right away.
90% of the WNBA audience are men. 62% are middle aged white men - so we need to have the context of the discussion - why aren’t more women and minorities supporting the WNBA when that’s the majority of the players in the league??
I am a middle aged white man - liberal - I had the WNBA league pass the last few years. I watch it with my nieces. They have noticed the toxicity and they are kids. “Man these girls don’t like CC”.
Now there is SO much toxicity in the league it’s gross. It’s fine to stand up for a cause and be who you are. CC is getting hate for existing and being popular.
People are more receptive to people who look like them. That’s the reality of human beings of ANY color or race. I am not saying it’s right but it’s just reality.
There needs to be a really nuanced long form discussion of this - but people have so many agendas - some people wanna use her to promote whiteness and conservatism- some people want her to fail to say she was overhyped and I told you so.
Some people wanna defend a black league from a straight white girl - even tho there has been straight white women in the WNBA.
Marketability is not the same thing as best. Like I said I am totally liberal - but if you watch a WNBA game you are bombarded by LGBTQ messaging - to me I am not bothered by it but I could see a more conservative person who may they don’t hate gay people but just don’t want to promote that as strongly - they are turned off.
I am not saying it’s right - it’s reality. Marcelis Wiley talked about this on his podcast.
If CC was out here promoting trump or hate I could see calling her out for sure - but I haven’t heard her connected to trump or politics in ANY way whatsoever.
But I can imagine CC thinking “you all hate me for existing as who I am and want me to fail but now you are mad I won’t fight hard enough for your cause?” - cause anyone in that situation - most of us - would tell that person to go to hell.
In this situation CC responded the right way. But people are so bothered by her existence and being popular that they are so triggered they can’t think straight and are acting the fool.
"If CC was out there promoting Trump..."
What would be wrong with that? Other athletes and artists do it. Why can't she if that's what she wants. So, as long as she's not openly supporting Trump she's ok in your estimation? Incredibly limited thinking.
@@MeneerHerculePoirot Yes. Because she would be promoting a FASCIST CONVICT. Which tells me you need to narrow your thinking...just a little bit. Or, pick a better example.
@@MeneerHerculePoirot Other athletes and artists do it? You can count them on one hand
@@michaellacross5266 Do you even know what "fascist" means?
In the long term have you gave any thoughts on next year???
In What World did Swoops, Leslie and Parker NOT get marketed? All of them had their own Shoe deals and were all over the TV decades ago, I've never watched a WNBA game and I know WTF they are along with Holdsclaw and Maya Moore.
The reason the WNBA never grew, is because WOMEN are not watching the sport. If these journalists are going to be honest, be all the way honest. These recent discussions are hella dishonest!
Facts!
Great to find jim jackson here. Great commentary man. You are way better than richard jefferson and kendrick perkins
J Hill when yur next cruise trip lol 😂😂😂😂
It only took her 9 min to bring race into it😂
Nobody wants to bring up how CC is the most guarded and defended player ever. Checking her 94 ft is wild.
Turnover Clark is awful. She doesn't score enough points to make up for her turnovers. Turnover Clark is also going to completely obliterate the single season turnover record.
Obviously, you have never played competitive sports!
lol the metrics tell you that. She’s trash but the most heavily guarded player by far 😂😂
@@isachayden9987 Anyone who has played knows that a full court press is practically unheard of. Lebron, Kobe, and Jordan didn't get that much defensive pressure just bringing the ball up the court.
@@joemillz10 I'm sure anyone getting beat down like her would turn the ball over just as much, if not more. Her own teammates laugh when she gets knocked down. Makes it pretty hard to do well when it feels like 9 vs 1.
People watch/attend games for CC… Other teams viewership/attendance is terrible!!! The problem is the media hates promoting white/straight ppl.
If the Fever don't start winning, their viewership/attendance will dip too...in time. Maybe not this year, because her fans want to see how her game translates in the W this year. As you can see, she's half the player (statistically) of what she was at Iowa. Also, unlike Iowa, the Fever are struggling, albeit they're showing improvement even if it's little. CC22 fans, most of them, like her because of her distance shooting (individual talent) and the impact of her on the team (Iowa going deep in the NCAA Tournament). That is the basis of her fan base. Two good reasons. But next year, if the Fever doesn't win 50% of their games, and CC22 continues with so-so stats like what we're seeing now, that popularity will dip...not evaporate...but slip.

@@joemillz10 She isn't struggling at all. She is 16th in points per game, 4th in assists, 15th in blocks, and 6th in 3 pointers made. She also finished in the top 30 in every other category out of 112 other players. Just cope.
I respect WNBA players but I don't even like watching player like P. J. Tucker in the NBA. I'm not watching someone bang other players and collect rebounds.
I like player like Kai, Steph in the NBA,.. I like Clark, her teammate Kelsey Mitchell, Ionescu, Paige Bueckers, Juju.

Not close
It’s not a double standard. 18:29 When Victor W. was being super-hyped, I didn’t see a single NBA player on air saying “he’s got another thing coming…playing in France is like playing with boys, now he is going to be playing with men…” But, yet, Diana T. goes on the air in the midst of the Final Four to steal some of the spotlight and say just that, but about CC in the W. Don’t act like the reaction of NBA players OUTWARDLY is anywhere like what has been shown by multiple WNBA players about CC. Imagine an NBA player saying “I ain’t answering any Victor W. questions…”! 🤯
And using a L. James reference from 20+ years ago isn’t relevant anymore.
Taurasi is a MADE women OG Olympian since age 18 now 42 years old so HUSH!!
@@PRODIGY-AND-HAVOC you spelled ugly wrong.
The Steph/Caitlin comparison in regards to marketable qualities is a good one. I've attended at least 10 arenas where Steph was the visiting player and nearly every kid of all races and cities is wearing his jersey. The NBA players would slight him and attribute the phenomena to him being 'light skinned' before his play muted those conversations. Bottom line is that it is beautiful to watch an athlete toss in logo 3s. Marry that with a winning personality and relatability...you have a star. That said, women's tennis owes the fact that they have had equal prize money for 40+ years to Billie Jean King-a gay woman. The women's game has been dominated by international talent since the 70s of various races and sexual orientations at or near the top. The sub narratives around the WNBA will die down when we get to focus on personalities we care about. At some point, it doesn't matter why people started to care about the sport...they do now.
The problem is that Steph's popularity and Warrior attendance took a hit in 2019-20 season when the their record was 15-50 and they got the a lottery pick. Steph and the Warriors are tied to the success of the team, and how deep they go in the playoffs. CC22 is no different in that respect. How long will CC22 remain popular if she's putting up half the stats of her college career on a losing team in the W? A year? Maybe 2 years? If you truly care about CC22, you need to hope that she improves (over her current play) and that improvement translates to WINS for the Fever. If that doesn't happen, you'll see just how fast that popularity tanks.
@@michaellacross5266 I agree with that and it's been my concern as well. Not just for Caitlin, but for the league. I'd like to believe that the fans will be patient with Clark and easily drawn to the other players and story lines in the interim. As I'm writing this, I'm thinking that it would be cool to get some NBA coaching blood into the mix. Mark Jackson can't seem to get arresting on the NBA coaching circuit and he did develop Curry...just sayin':)
Nobody would be talking about the wnba if it wasn’t for CC there’s nothing else anyone needs to know
And that’s sad because it’s a fun league to watch and o btw 7 gold medals but that’s how life goes

That's such a red herring. #1 No one said it's soft we said the technical skills were lacking #2 if you put crap on public TV, it's still crap. It's not from lack of opportunity
Hard not to like her. I’ve tried. But knowledgeable and tries to stick to facts.
LOL..."Aja WIlson's FOOTWORK" is absolutely NOT why the WNBA is thriving LOL....what a joke.
She meant to say the skill level of top players have greatly improved and caitlyn will be better her 3rd year in league because Ajai is similar to jordan with skill level comparison jordan wasn't just athletic he was fundamentally sound and possessed skills. Much like Wilson's ascending status
Blah, blah, blau..Maybe the fans love CC is because she's so "Down home"..Signing autographs before and after a game, teaching b-ball to kids..She's someone parents see as a great role model for their children..She's not political, she doesn't carry a "Im better than you" attitude..She's not spiteful or mean, etc..CC is just a nice person and all her fans recognize that..All this woman is blathering is just "Word Salad".

no thanks
There are certain people like jamila Hill should not be on TV or heard from , because of her past comments and being fired from ESPN because of these comments and in this interview again she was just talking not answering any questions with very little intelligent like before
Why did it take a Caitlin Clark? Hmmmm, Why did it take a Michael Jordan to take the NBA Global?
So what she thinks getting assigned to the WNBA was a reward?
Maybe her or someone that actually knows what they are talking about. Wnba needs it's on coverage to many people really don't appear to know the league.
Salute To Jim Great Interview💯👍
The leaves been around for 25 years. The most watched games ever are from Caitlin Clark. Nobody else and a discussion
Not true the aces sellout their home games all season in Vegas. The wnba has a terrible marketing dept. In fairness it's hard to market studs with no media training
J Hill dieing to get back on TV after epic failure. I didn’t hear any politics this time wow. But, still why didn’t these customers come sooner??😂
Steph and Caitlin are popular cause they are fun to watch.
But Steph is not an everyman lol, his dad was an NBA player

@Smittysportsmachine @BigLowKuntry Amazing trailblazers interview perspectives and so glad the WNBA transcending to stratospheric levels etc.
Nobody cares about the woman that started the W, we just want to watch Caitlin. I don’t need to be educated on the W, I’m so sick of this narrative. Just let me watch the game and get rid of Jemele Hill, she’s horrible.
I feel it's like magic and bird or steph
Except for the fact that Magic and Bird had an immediate impact on their teams success. The Lakers won the 'ship in his rookie year, and the Celtics saw a 30 game turn around in wins. The Fever are horrible.
Well I will never watch this show again after having jemele hill.

Good to hear Jemele may be back on TV - she always has deep, complete thoughts and not just “takes.” And Jim is a great “new” voice covering the game. Great stuff.
Jemele Hill condescends by pigeonholing CC’s game as “shooting from the logo.” She has the knack to make all of her perspectives on everything a substitute for racial victimhood. Which only results in compromising the very goals she advocates. She’s a dim bulb who generates a faint light not worth the intense heat.
Dont bring k own racist on the show please
Jemele Hill isn’t a gatekeeper, I don’t need her permission or any of these other people’s permission to watch a basketball game. Jemele Hill Islam has never kept a job at any network she’s not good.

@@PRODIGY-AND-HAVOC the only time she gets any run is when she of course makes it about race and gender. She’s lost all credibility and is not likable, those are 2 elements that don’t work in the media.
Two words: Logo 3s.
It’s why CC is popular. She’s doing something the other women can’t. If it was being white, straight and a walking bucket Kelsey Plum would’ve had this popularity. Kelsey broke the scoring record also, she’s white, she’s straight (in fact she was married to an NFL player) and you can argue she’s prettier than CC.

@@joemillz10 I'm sure anyone getting beat down like her would turn the ball over just as much, if not more. Her own teammates laugh when she gets knocked down. Makes it pretty hard to do well when it feels like 9 vs 1.
u Cray...she a legend been on GREAT shows for 20 years now making moves with spike lee...you??
Jemele is a terrible person that spreads hate…
Juju is generational player, Clark doesn’t have long. Juju is coming
She's really good. Made me have a different perspective on this entire subject. She should be the spokesperson for the wnba. Make her the commissioner..
CC, is pretty good 👍 👌 😉 .........
GROSS!!!!
Gross.
like it or not, CC is.a runaway hype locomotive. this type of magic happens once in a generation, regardless of her skill level, which happens to be elite. jump on the locomotive, or don't, but definitely get out of the mfin way so the rest of the planet can enjoy the ride.
Woke MVP Jemele Hill is the worst.
Turnover Clark is awful. She doesn't score enough points to make up for her turnovers. Turnover Clark is also going to completely obliterate the single season turnover record.
