Diana is a little slow, do YOU think shes right?????????? Like and Sub for more bc if you do i'll give you 5 cents (not actually).#wnba #caitlinclark #opinion #idkwhattoputhere #information
Larry Bird didn't win the National Championship yet he put the NBA on notice and took the pain of not winning out on the entire league. Just imagine if she takes the same mindset.
The only problem I have is you're calling her the greatest player in college history please stop it she did great things that's it, she did not win Raven shut her down point blank. 100% fact. She can be great and will be if she works hard to get there like Larry Bird did. We can't judge you based on your potential but your results. Let her get the results and then all praise will be worthy right now it's just a wish. This is sports nothing is given it's OK to be a fan.
@@hottrakz I never said she was the greatest college player, that was everyone else. The point is she, just like Larry Bird was on a team that would have never made it to a national title game, and when Bird came into the league his team had the second worst record in the league at the time, and to my understanding Bird has the greatest team turn around in league history, and this is without any of the hall of famers. And if you say he had Pistal Pete on his team, well Larry Bird force him into retirement.
@@hottrakz a ring is a team stat. A players greatness is there stat. Caitlin has one of those and it’s the one that will matter to a franchise. The 13 woman on the South Carolina team isn’t more valueable than Clark just bc she has rings.
That is of course because you don't know woman's basketball all you are proving is you have social media. Popularity doesn't always translate to sustained success on the court which we have yet to see. So before we put someone in front of who's already done it we have to give them a chance to prove themselves.
@@hottrakzthe wnba as a whole is nearly never talked about 😂. Only reason any of the wnba players are getting interviews like they are now is because of CC, just because it’s temporary popularity doesn’t mean it isn’t huge for something thats practically never truly looked at. And CC is always looking for the next challenge, so hardly anyone has a doubt that she wont succeed in the wnba
Well actually you really shouldn't admit that..she is one of the great WINNERS to ever play womens basketball...unless you just don't follow basketball at all
@@rrenda1 I know enough to know when someone gets shut down at the biggest moment of their career. Goats don't get shut down that's why they are goats GOAT means you're greater than the people in front of you. We could compare her to WNBA players once she gets in there and plays in the WNBA you are comparing her to someone who she never played against right now it's just wishful thinking obviously you don't understand sports everything is earned not given

Regardless of anything Caitlin has people talking about woman’s basketball and bringing popularity to the sport. Bad look for all the wnba people hating on someone who can bring relevance to the sport.
Is hating state and opinion because I haven't heard anything anyone said that was hateful people may have stated facts on things that she have or haven't done but those are facts that's not hate. Just because someone says something you don't agree with it doesn't equate to heat Taurasi never lie she said reality is coming because it is. Caitlin is untested she has to prove herself like everyone else that's not hate it's just reality. The reality is she's very popular and a very good player and is bringing a lot of attention to woman's basketball along with Angel Reese and a few other girls but they all have to earn their respect.

I've been extremely disappointed over the reception that Caitlin Clark is getting from some WNBA players. All I can think of is that they are simply jealous of the attention Clark has received and their jealousy has blinded them to how Clark has lifted women's basketball to new heights...which in the long run will benefit every WNBA player and team in the league. Stupidly, they have forgotten that a rising tide raises ALL boats. Those players who speak negatively of Clark should re-think their motives, be grateful for sold out season's tickets across the league, and apologize to their fans for displaying such nastiness to a new WNBA player.
So if they said thank you for bringing eyes to the game but now I have to kick your ass on the court would that be better. I am not mistaken don't Caitlin running around talking trash is that hate that she spews or is it competitive trash talk. It's up to the fans to embrace the player made their competition the only people who need to embrace her is her teammates
When a talented, talked about rookie comes up to the pros, all the veterans get in a line to haze the rookie. The same thing happened to Michael Jordan when he was a rookie.
I agree is disgusting that taurasi does this. I will no longer watch her. I will support Clark even more now. Childish behavior and she says she is a grown adult…sorry
I think it is jealousy. Clark is getting the attention that Taurasi craves and has craved for years. Let’s face it, when she played in college, women’s basketball was not that popular. She goes to the WNBA and the league has had dismal attendance and tv ratings. Along comes Caitlin Clark setting multiple records, bringing excitement and most importantly, lots of eyes to women’s college basketball. And now she will do so for the WNBA. But Taurasi wanted to be that person and wasn’t. So, she takes every opportunity to knock Clark. My advice to Taurasi is you better get that grown 41 year old woman body of yours to go back in time to when you were 22 because Caitlin is going to burn you up.
They're just stupid and can't see that Clark can be a boon to all of them. They should pray she succeeds. The interest Clark brings will mean lots more viewers and attendance revenues.
totally agree a great role model for women's b ball and an unselfish reflection on Clark's value to women's sports. she is the Serena of women's basketball
As great a player as Diana has been(and I have been a big fan since her days at UConn), she and the other WNBA stars have not been able to make the WNBA a financial success. Caitlin has done more for the league already without playing one game.
Dirty Diana 41yrs old 20yrs in the league, Champion(Obviously not Humble)and NO leadership skills apparently. Played on Stacked teams in college and her game instantly translated to 20ppgm. The only adjustment period coming is going to be for Taurasi. Steph gave us a little taste when at Davidson and it translated into Championships. But we haven't seen anything like this since Larry Joe Bird. "I hate it when they put a white guy on me, it's disrespect to my game." A player inducted into the hall of fame recounted listening to to a Indiana ST game, Bird this, Bird that, Bird scores. "Dam this dude is good." "Then I met/seen in the paper, he's white." It's not racial, it's that there are a lot of great Black players and just every once in awhile a diamond rolls out of the rough, one that everyone can cheer for. Some of you WNBA players want to throw the Virgin in the Volcano. You better get to the Gym, you're going to have to be a little quicker.😂🐠
Steph Curry was nowhere near the player in Davidson that he is he developed in front of us in the NBA through a lot of hard work and good coaching. A lot of what you saying it's true however giving somebody a crown prematurely is a recipe for disaster. I wish Caitlin Clark the best but she has a lot of work to do because while there are scrubs in the WNBA there are plenty of Raven Johnsons there licking their chaps waiting to lock her down or prove she is who they say she is. America has always been about black and white she is or maybe that diamond in the rough amongst many talented Ebony players and when America sees that they embrace it it's just how it is in a country occupied by 70% caucasians. It may not be all racial but in America that's always been the driving force I understand Caitlin Clark has plenty of other fans then Caucasian but if anyone knows about numbers this is a fact that cannot be ignored. I personally think she will do fine she has enough support from NBA players that will actually work with her whether it's for publicity or because they genuinely care. As far as any titles I will hold off on those until she actually earns them
This is what may happen. These WNBA women laughing at Caitlin will stop laughing. Let them sound stupid until the season begins then see how it feels when they have difficulty guarding her. She played against mostly 19 to 22 year olds. Yes, some of these older women may want to show Caitlin Clark up and when they cannot they will turn to dirty tactics. Talk trash, get physical and even try and cause harm by deliberate dirty tactics but Caitlin is tougher than Taurasi. Their mouths are talking now whilst Caitlin is already in the gym preparing for the next season. I have seen some of their practise sessions and Caitlin is fitting in so well and of course playing awesome basketball.
The crazy part is, they're not even talking about about her handles and passing, which is the most lethal part of her game. Aliyah Boston is going to have a blast. That tandem is scary.
That's what I've been saying! She's FAR from a one trick pony with the logo threes. How many assists could she have had in college if her teammates made the shot every time she delivered an awesome pass?
Clark had 1 game in single digits in her entire collegiate career and only 9 games with less than 20 pts scored she's way too consistent to not have an immediate impact on the WNBA.
Yeah, its y i hate egos with a passion. They choose to play in a profession with an already super successful male version and they can’t handle how little they make compared to the nba and now their seeing a woman half their age getting PAID for something they’ve been doing for much less and instead of simply congratulating her their acting like she’s mediocre which is miles from true
Caitlin made it very clear on the Pat Mcafee show that the shit talking doesn’t bother her, just part of the territory of success she said lol. So im guessing in a possibly humble way she will explain who the Caitlin Clark is 😂
Exactly. The University of Iowa was never had a top tier women's basketball program like UConn, Stanford, Notre Dame, or more recently South Carolina and LSU. FYI, I attended Iowa State University and can't think of a single male or female athlete that came out of there that went professional in any sport, except Brock Purdy. ISU has 25,000 students, while the University of Iowa has 22,000 players.
@@happykt Tennesse was ranked higher than UCONN in the 2002-03 preseason and UCONN beat them in the title game. The same season Taurasi lost 4 of her teamates to the WNBA draft (first pick was Sue Bird). Am I lying?
Raven was a role player that she got locked down by defensively. Caitlin was met a little past have court and couldn't overcome the one-on-one defense. You have professionals bigger and stronger who have done this for longer they give an opinion and it's considered to be hating. I haven't heard anyone say 1 hateful thing about the girl yet. Caitlin's school her family her team and fans are the only ones who should be celebrating her. Outside of saying thank you for bringing another aspect or eyes to the game what more should somebody say why would someone bow down to someone who hasn't done anything yet in the league. She has to prove herself
I think it's perfect. Diana Taurasi is the tough jealous old villian and CC is the young superstar superhero. You need both to create great storylines and millions of viewers. They play each other June 30th. The build up and anticipation and ratings for that game will be off the charts. I would not be surprised if DT welcomes CC to the WNBA with a hard foul knocking her on her ASS just like she did Kelsey Plum. Guess we will all have to tune in to find out.
I've never thought about Diana Taurasi before aside from knowing she's a wnba star. But if this is her personality, she was never going to be a successful face of the league. She's not likable. Clark is super competitive, but still seems to be an overall happy, likable person.
Ya, she'll have transition problems at first. Maybe week 1- week 5 she'll have a horrible time. Instead of 30pts per game, maybe she'll score only 25! ROFLMAO. Maybe her 3pt shots might suffer by 2-3 per game. But, if you look at what the fever done last year, if I remember right, the best players off the bench for them only averaged about 6 pts each. So if you figure that way, she will more than make up the difference and could take the place of any three off the bench with no problem. It would seem to me, that would of been enough for the Fever to win at least 10 games during the regular season. And all the above is if CC has mediocre games with no hot streaks. I say the other teams in the league better hope she has LOTS of mediocre games.
She's not averaging 25 per game. Aaliyah Boston was last year's rookie of the year and she's also playing with other scorers like Kelsey Mitches. Clark will likely average around 17-19 ppg, and that's not bad at all, but she's not getting anywhere near 30. The all time record is 25 ppg by Taurasi. Rookies in the WNBA just don't average that much.
Honestly she’s probably done it enough that she doesn’t need the logo lol. Wat ur saying is smart thinking, but shes a very humble person so i think she would adjust if that actually happened lol
Whens the last time you saw a basketball player that was great in high school, and great in college, not translate well to the pros in BASKETBALL... only the ones who let their off the court shenanigans get in the way or they were injured.
DT is jealous because she knows she isn’t as good as CC. DT is a has been and need to retire. It’s time for the old lady to give some young blood a shot at the rkster
You are so right, I watched Diana Taurasi play in her day and she always had a better than them attitude. She is a sad person who can’t accept a 22 year old broke her college records. If she truly loved the sport for women, she wouldn’t be so jealous and envious of Clark. Poor sportsmanship on her part. CC can handle the WNBA the only difference between playing with college and Pro. Pros get older she’s a young buck who can out play Diana Taurasi right now, even on her best day today!!!!
Agree 100% I looked at the college stats to 😂 Stewart and Taurasi combined 286 GMA 32.6 points a gm and 7.3 assts a gm Caitlin 139 gms 28.4 points a gm 8.2 assts a gm in 137 fewer gms . Who is reality really coming for ?
I grew up in the 60’s in Los Angeles. Elgin Baylor was my favorite player. I stopped watching NBA Basketball after Kobie and Shack. I noticed Caitlin Clark’s name early in the Season this year. I’ve never been one to watch Women’s Collegiate Basketball. I began following Caitlin and finding out when she was playing next and on what channel. She is a phenomenal athlete and player! I grew to enjoy the Women’s Collegiate Basketball. Their game is similar to the game I grew up watching and playing. I’ve NEVER watched a WNBA Game, but I will be this coming Season. The haters are jealous! You’re spot on about Them having to adjust for Her! Good Job on the Video! Good Job comparing Stats! 👏👏👏
The best video I’ve seen in a long time! Fantastic work. Haters are going to hate but you can’t pay rent (except in the head of Dianna’s head) with hate
🏀 IF CATLIN WERE BLACK. THEY WOULD BE SINGING A DIFFERENT TUNE, NO DOUBT. SO WE KNOW IT'S ABOUT THE COLOR OF HER SKIN .🏀 REMEMBER DIVIDED WE FALL UNITED WE STAND ❤️🏀❤️🏀❤️🏀❤️🏀❤️🏀❤️🏀❤️🏀❤️🏀❤️🏀❤️
Diana Taurasi is the face of the WNBA right now and she knows that the "new generation" of WNBA players are beginning to trickle into the league beginning with the 2024 WNBA season. The WNBA drafts in 2025, 2026 & 2027 will continue to infuse more talent into the league from the women's college game.
@@conlanding The underclass college talent was amazing throughout the tournament. Maybe the vets will be more appreciative when they get a nice bonus the end of the season.
Instead of hate coupled with jealousy, these haters should embark on developing talents in other bb players. CC founded an organization for the improvement of the skills, and physical and mental health of aspiring bb players, girls and boys.
Everyone is Talking about 3 quarters and Ravens defense. It's one game out of an entire career. I don't know how you judge a person of just one game. I think Caitlin is going to translate better than everyone thinks. Iowa has never been a top team like Uconn Stanford Notre Dame South Carolina or LSU. She's used to playing along teammates not being highly recruited and getting them to all play together as a Team. People don't realize how Fierce of a Competitor She is. I noticed it her first year playing against my Iowa State Cyclones. She's special and she's different.
I watched her working out with her teammate and she was making the three pointers, passing to her , they looked great, i dont think theres going to be any adjustment.
Princess Diana needs to chill. She would have taken the deal also. Sports is incredibly important in our great country. And every so often someone comes along with great talent and they get way more attention than normal. It happens and it will happen again. So let her play.
The nba isn't perfect but the players there always talk up new stars when they come in. Those guys know how their bread gets buttered. The WNBA ought to collectively shut down the petty jealous crap from old veterans like Taurasi who weren't able to draw any viewers to the sport in 20 years of playing
its a matter of pride and defeat. Taurausi knows that Clark will not just pass her scoring record.........but will badly obliterate it, while besting her at everything else at the same time. tough pill to swallow
If Diana had not started off with “reality is coming”, everything she said after that is on-point. My question is would she still be criticized for what she said after that?
These Boxer short idiots played for Geno and power house Connecticut and beckles who is injury prone plays for same team ,nobody knew Iowa existed until Caitlin Clark,the Hate is deep nobody talks about the WNBA,until this woman came along
Taurasi used to be the golden child of WNBA and now CC is the golden girl of WNBA and she's really having a naricistic episode over it. Did you see that after the play dirty foul Taurisi did recently.... shows how petty and vengeful and spitelful she really is. I would love to see a last minute swapout for the olympic team of CC in and Taurasi out
😂😂😂😂 Like Diana Taurasi said, there are levels to this shit. So far, it seems like what she's been saying is spot on .Never ever question someone who is actually in the game. 🤡 💩
L. Edwards inspired Tspoon, R. Lobo n C. Cooper to be the best they could be in basketball. Then they inspired Diana T., Sue Bird, n Britney Griner to do their best in the sport. Then these 3 women inspired C. Clark to do her best on the court. Now she n the rest of the 2024 rookie class can discuss to the next generation of young women to follow whatever dreams they have. I'm happy to see that C. Clark can be part of the shining light.
i dont find it that far off. gop look at the numbers. all of them and not just what this dope told you to look at in the video. paige for her career and this past season by a LARGE margin for colege career anmd this season. paige .530% fg for carrer and this past season, .580%2pt fg for career and .588 for last season, .425 3p fg for career and .421 last season from 3. now lets look at caitlin .462 fg % for career and .455 for last season, .553 2p fr% for career and .571 last year and from 3 .377 for career and .378 last season. paige statistically speaking blew caitlin out the water. litereally not even close from 2 or 3 and she blows her oput the water when it comes to offensive raiting. pickingn paige over caitlin isnt crazy at all
@@DanDolphin4 I gave you the statistics. The ones he said show Caitlin is clearly better. And I showed you with those same stats Paige literally outshoots Caitlin from everywhere on the court by a large margin except free throw. And instead of saying how I'm wrong like I did( Bec I have a brain) you just say You're wrong. Well that's not good enough. Show me how I'm wrong
@@ForEducationalPurposesOnly Caitlin outscored Paige last season by 10 points a game, beat her in assists by 5 a game, more rebounds by 2 a game, Paige got her by a quarter of a steel and she got her by a half a block. Field goal percentage she got her by 7%. 53 to 46. 3-pointers she got her by 3%. 38 to 41. And then Caitlin got her by 3% free throw shooting. That's fine I'll give you that but who gives a s***. WHO CARES!!! Paige Becker's three-pointers are coming with her toes on the line. I don't see any big Logo highlights from Paige. Caitlin shot 38% with an average 3-point distance of 27 ft!! Caitlin PACKS stadiums!!! Caitlin took a team with no WNBA players to the CHAMPIONSHIP game BACK-TO-BACK!!!!!!!!🔥🔥🔥🔥 That's why she's a SHOWSTOPPER ☀️ PAIGE BUECKER'S IS AN AMAZING BASKETBALL PLAYER. I agree with you. But she's not a SHOWSTOPPER 🤫👑🎊 SHE HASN'T COMMANDED THE ATTENTION OF THE ENTIRE WORLD🌎 🌍 🌏The basketball community knows about her but not the 🌎🌍🌏 Not sure what were at odds about. Paige was a higher percentage shooter last season. 👍🎉🎊 Points. 31.7 21.9 Assists. 8.9 3.8 Rebounds 7.3 5.1 Steals. 1.8 2.2 Blocks 0.6 1.4 Field Goal %. 46.1 53.4 3-Point % 38.0 41.3 Free Throw % 86.2 83.4
The only way I would pay money to see a game with Taurasi would be if Caitlin Clark was playing in the same game. Taurasi is just a jealous old lady who needs to invest in a good rocking chair and remember to take her meds(she's obviously missing some of her dosages).
Taurasi is overrated at both the college and pro level. And she has never made an all-defensive team at the college or pro level. She will be 42 years old when she plays Clark and they play 3 times (the second and third time in Indiana). I would love to see Clark drop 50 on Taurasi especially if she has the guts to cover Clark in one of those 3 games.
I'm glad she has a beast in Boston to probably make them immediate contenders this season. You can't double Clark and leave Boston open under the hoop. As Dawn said she will lift up the leauge. Also there is only one GOAT...
Larry Bird didn't win the National Championship yet he put the NBA on notice and took the pain of not winning out on the entire league. Just imagine if she takes the same mindset.

"Then I met/seen in the paper, he's white."
It's not racial, it's that there are a lot of great Black players and just every once in awhile a diamond rolls out of the rough, one that everyone can cheer for.
Some of you WNBA players want to throw the Virgin in the Volcano.
You better get to the Gym, you're going to have to be a little quicker.😂🐠
Steph Curry was nowhere near the player in Davidson that he is he developed in front of us in the NBA through a lot of hard work and good coaching. A lot of what you saying it's true however giving somebody a crown prematurely is a recipe for disaster. I wish Caitlin Clark the best but she has a lot of work to do because while there are scrubs in the WNBA there are plenty of Raven Johnsons there licking their chaps waiting to lock her down or prove she is who they say she is. America has always been about black and white she is or maybe that diamond in the rough amongst many talented Ebony players and when America sees that they embrace it it's just how it is in a country occupied by 70% caucasians. It may not be all racial but in America that's always been the driving force I understand Caitlin Clark has plenty of other fans then Caucasian but if anyone knows about numbers this is a fact that cannot be ignored. I personally think she will do fine she has enough support from NBA players that will actually work with her whether it's for publicity or because they genuinely care. As far as any titles I will hold off on those until she actually earns them
@@hottrakzwell said brother
@@hottrakz vegas has the over under at 21 ppg and 6.5apg…. Bet the under if you’re sure. Most people won’t.
Um….her teams were STACKED…..by HER, DUMBBELL!!!
@@traybern I might be a Dumbbell to you.
But you apparently can't pour piss out of a boot with the instructions on the heel.
This is what may happen. These WNBA women laughing at Caitlin will stop laughing. Let them sound stupid until the season begins then see how it feels when they have difficulty guarding her. She played against mostly 19 to 22 year olds. Yes, some of these older women may want to show Caitlin Clark up and when they cannot they will turn to dirty tactics. Talk trash, get physical and even try and cause harm by deliberate dirty tactics but Caitlin is tougher than Taurasi. Their mouths are talking now whilst Caitlin is already in the gym preparing for the next season. I have seen some of their practise sessions and Caitlin is fitting in so well and of course playing awesome basketball.
I watched a WNBA game for the first time and got the impression the women play dirtier and fight more than the men
@@a1612 I agree.
One word describes these women =
JEALOUSY!
The crazy part is, they're not even talking about about her handles and passing, which is the most lethal part of her game. Aliyah Boston is going to have a blast. That tandem is scary.
Dynamic Duo🫡
Her handles are weak what are talking about that’s why raven locked her up that’s something she needs work on to get that pretty shot off
cant wait
lol stop it she trash, she got ripped or blocked when ever she got the ball in the second half lol
That's what I've been saying! She's FAR from a one trick pony with the logo threes.
How many assists could she have had in college if her teammates made the shot every time she delivered an awesome pass?
Clark had 1 game in single digits in her entire collegiate career and only 9 games with less than 20 pts scored she's way too consistent to not have an immediate impact on the WNBA.
I saw this after I posted it it’s a crazy stay
@@imH00ZEY She's crazy good.
Vegas has the season average over under 21 ppg, 6.5 apg…. She’s gonna do good
The reasons are jealousy... And getting her name in the news -- look how well it works!
Some people don't know how too handle success. Your league has no eyeballs and someone is finally bringing eyeballs to your league and you hating?
I hope you don’t mean I’m hating. Bc I’m talking about why this hate isn’t deserved for her.
@@imH00ZEY I'm talking about these ungrateful WNBA players.
Yeah, its y i hate egos with a passion. They choose to play in a profession with an already super successful male version and they can’t handle how little they make compared to the nba and now their seeing a woman half their age getting PAID for something they’ve been doing for much less and instead of simply congratulating her their acting like she’s mediocre which is miles from true
I’m worried they gonna try to hurt Caitlin! I hope the league is doing something about this!!!!
The comissioner and owners aren’t stupid. They know the golden goose must be protected or you’re out the league.
That's when CC took it personally. CC gonna cook DT when their teams meet.
Caitlin made it very clear on the Pat Mcafee show that the shit talking doesn’t bother her, just part of the territory of success she said lol. So im guessing in a possibly humble way she will explain who the Caitlin Clark is 😂
Clark played with role players and Diana played with hall of famers
Exactly. The University of Iowa was never had a top tier women's basketball program like UConn, Stanford, Notre Dame, or more recently South Carolina and LSU. FYI, I attended Iowa State University and can't think of a single male or female athlete that came out of there that went professional in any sport, except Brock Purdy. ISU has 25,000 students, while the University of Iowa has 22,000 players.
The fact that Tennessee wasn't mentioned here lets me know that people nowadays know absolutely feck all about sports
@@happykt Tennesse was ranked higher than UCONN in the 2002-03 preseason and UCONN beat them in the title game. The same season Taurasi lost 4 of her teamates to the WNBA draft (first pick was Sue Bird). Am I lying?
Raven was a role player that she got locked down by defensively. Caitlin was met a little past have court and couldn't overcome the one-on-one defense. You have professionals bigger and stronger who have done this for longer they give an opinion and it's considered to be hating. I haven't heard anyone say 1 hateful thing about the girl yet. Caitlin's school her family her team and fans are the only ones who should be celebrating her. Outside of saying thank you for bringing another aspect or eyes to the game what more should somebody say why would someone bow down to someone who hasn't done anything yet in the league. She has to prove herself
and thats why her numbers look pretty pedestrian. if caitlin was in that system she isnt averaging 30 for a season
Like the format of the video, keep up the work
Appreciate you ✅
I think it's perfect. Diana Taurasi is the tough jealous old villian and CC is the young superstar superhero. You need both to create great storylines and millions of viewers. They play each other June 30th. The build up and anticipation and ratings for that game will be off the charts. I would not be surprised if DT welcomes CC to the WNBA with a hard foul knocking her on her ASS just like she did Kelsey Plum. Guess we will all have to tune in to find out.
I can only think of one word to answer your question... Envy.
I've never thought about Diana Taurasi before aside from knowing she's a wnba star. But if this is her personality, she was never going to be a successful face of the league. She's not likable. Clark is super competitive, but still seems to be an overall happy, likable person.
More people will watch the Fever/Wings pre-season game on Friday than any WNBA game, probably, ever.
Diana Taurasi looks like when Alec Baldwin in Beetlejuice transformed into that long nosed creature to scare the family out of the house.
Ya, she'll have transition problems at first. Maybe week 1- week 5 she'll have a horrible time. Instead of 30pts per game, maybe she'll score only 25! ROFLMAO. Maybe her 3pt shots might suffer by 2-3 per game. But, if you look at what the fever done last year, if I remember right, the best players off the bench for them only averaged about 6 pts each. So if you figure that way, she will more than make up the difference and could take the place of any three off the bench with no problem. It would seem to me, that would of been enough for the Fever to win at least 10 games during the regular season. And all the above is if CC has mediocre games with no hot streaks. I say the other teams in the league better hope she has LOTS of mediocre games.
She's not averaging 25 per game. Aaliyah Boston was last year's rookie of the year and she's also playing with other scorers like Kelsey Mitches. Clark will likely average around 17-19 ppg, and that's not bad at all, but she's not getting anywhere near 30. The all time record is 25 ppg by Taurasi. Rookies in the WNBA just don't average that much.
more parity in the women's game during CC's time than during Tuarasi era
Diana, the face of loss.
Jealousy*
If you can’t beat Caitlin Clark ! Just simply Acknowledged her gift of greatness ! She is a Generational Player that comes “ Once in a blue moon 🌖 “!
If I were the GM of a team facing the Fever, I’d remove all logos from the court. Maybe that’ll throw Caitlin off her 3 pointer.
Great idea tbh
Once she crosses the halfway line the green light appears
Honestly she’s probably done it enough that she doesn’t need the logo lol. Wat ur saying is smart thinking, but shes a very humble person so i think she would adjust if that actually happened lol
🤣
😅
Diana and others are just jelouse of another talented player Clark is great for the game
Whens the last time you saw a basketball player that was great in high school, and great in college, not translate well to the pros in BASKETBALL... only the ones who let their off the court shenanigans get in the way or they were injured.
Ain’t like she’s got those problems right now too
Nice Graphic with the green dot! Love the analysis.
Much love 🐐
DT is jealous because she knows she isn’t as good as CC. DT is a has been and need to retire. It’s time for the old lady to give some young blood a shot at the rkster
You are so right, I watched Diana Taurasi play in her day and she always had a better than them attitude. She is a sad person who can’t accept a 22 year old broke her college records. If she truly loved the sport for women, she wouldn’t be so jealous and envious of Clark. Poor sportsmanship on her part. CC can handle the WNBA the only difference between playing with college and Pro. Pros get older she’s a young buck who can out play Diana Taurasi right now, even on her best day today!!!!
I tryed watching wnba the first couple seasons for free and couldn't do it, now im willing to pay money just to watch 22 cook!!!
My friend, the "Green Dot" chart says it all!
Agree 100% I looked at the college stats to 😂 Stewart and Taurasi combined 286 GMA 32.6 points a gm and 7.3 assts a gm
Caitlin 139 gms 28.4 points a gm 8.2 assts a gm in 137 fewer gms . Who is reality really coming for ?
Jealousy and envy are not a good combination
I'd love to bump into to Taurasi & hold up her stats compared to Caitlin's & say if it's not impressive then why didn't you do it?
The only reason I care about women’s basketball is because of Caitlin Clark
I’m impressed. This video was put together very well.
Thank you Check out the others if you want or care about the topic 🐐
Subbed
I hope you do more content for the WNBA, starts Friday!
We’ll see if Clark is killing it or sucking could be a follow up vid. Appreciate the sub 👑
Diana has been is down right jealous because she can't play CC
I grew up in the 60’s in Los Angeles. Elgin Baylor was my favorite player. I stopped watching NBA Basketball after Kobie and Shack. I noticed Caitlin Clark’s name early in the Season this year. I’ve never been one to watch Women’s Collegiate Basketball. I began following Caitlin and finding out when she was playing next and on what channel. She is a phenomenal athlete and player! I grew to enjoy the Women’s Collegiate Basketball. Their game is similar to the game I grew up watching and playing. I’ve NEVER watched a WNBA Game, but I will be this coming Season. The haters are jealous! You’re spot on about Them having to adjust for Her! Good Job on the Video! Good Job comparing Stats! 👏👏👏
Anybody knows the link where I can find the data on which the chart at min 2:15 is based?
Should see some old studs retiring to make room for some new blood
Excellent Expose!
#GO CAITLIN CLARK!
🏃♂️🏃🏃♂️🏃🏃♂️🏃🏃♂️🏃
Diana is not a grown woman. She’s the damn child for putting down the sport and hating.
Shit , C.C. Is underrated by this graphic in my opinion. I think we’ve witnessed something extraterrestrial 👽 n most people just can’t process it.
The best video I’ve seen in a long time! Fantastic work. Haters are going to hate but you can’t pay rent (except in the head of Dianna’s head) with hate
🏀 IF CATLIN WERE BLACK. THEY WOULD BE SINGING A DIFFERENT TUNE, NO DOUBT. SO WE KNOW IT'S ABOUT THE COLOR OF HER SKIN .🏀 REMEMBER
DIVIDED WE FALL
UNITED WE STAND
❤️🏀❤️🏀❤️🏀❤️🏀❤️🏀❤️🏀❤️🏀❤️🏀❤️🏀❤️
Imagine if people stopped being jealous and can actually support each other
Taurasi is just a sad old WNBA player holding a spot keeping a young player out of the league.
Or she knows that she’s not the face of the league anymore and it’s not sitting well with
Diana Taurasi is the face of the WNBA right now and she knows that the "new generation" of WNBA players are beginning to trickle into the league beginning with the 2024 WNBA season. The WNBA drafts in 2025, 2026 & 2027 will continue to infuse more talent into the league from the women's college game.
@@conlanding The underclass college talent was amazing throughout the tournament. Maybe the vets will be more appreciative when they get a nice bonus the end of the season.
Instead of hate coupled with jealousy, these haters should embark on developing talents in other bb players.
CC founded an organization for the improvement of the skills, and physical and mental health of aspiring bb players, girls and boys.
CC will change this league and game for the better.
Everyone is Talking about 3 quarters and Ravens defense. It's one game out of an entire career.
I don't know how you judge a person of just one game.
I think Caitlin is going to translate better than everyone thinks. Iowa has never been a top team like Uconn Stanford Notre Dame South Carolina or LSU. She's used to playing along teammates not being highly recruited and getting them to all play together as a Team. People don't realize how Fierce of a Competitor She is. I noticed it her first year playing against my Iowa State Cyclones. She's special and she's different.
Cant wait till Caitlin shows them all whats up🔥 didn’t even know who Diana was before this
"Thank you Caitlin Clark for the charter planes. We're trying that for more than 20 years. You made it happen. I am a big fan now." - Diana Taurasi
They are afraid of her. Because she is going to teach.
I watched her working out with her teammate and she was making the three pointers, passing to her , they looked great, i dont think theres going to be any adjustment.
I am one of those people who Caitlin Clark got to watch woman's collage basketball for the first time and now I'll be watching the pro games
Diana Taurasi is just jealous
Dang I didn’t even see her dot until you pointed it out. Lol.
SVP = Clapping seal.
🤣😭
Princess Diana needs to chill. She would have taken the deal also. Sports is incredibly important in our great country. And every so often someone comes along with great talent and they get way more attention than normal. It happens and it will happen again. So let her play.
The nba isn't perfect but the players there always talk up new stars when they come in. Those guys know how their bread gets buttered. The WNBA ought to collectively shut down the petty jealous crap from old veterans like Taurasi who weren't able to draw any viewers to the sport in 20 years of playing
theyre just bitter and envious that a college kid is worth 10x what they are at 40 after an entire pro career.
Great point: "I'm not talking about teams." I'm so tired of hearing that Caitlin hasn't won a championship, so that's a fault.
Dawn Stanley was good player too
that was great but that was not amazing. if she can dunk a basketball that would be amazing
Diana knows Clark is better then Diana has ever been and is very JEALOUS
Its about championships thats what they play for
its a matter of pride and defeat. Taurausi knows that Clark will not just pass her scoring record.........but will badly obliterate it, while besting her at everything else at the same time. tough pill to swallow
If Diana had not started off with “reality is coming”, everything she said after that is on-point. My question is would she still be criticized for what she said after that?
Fresh legs, unconventional game play, confidence and work ethic through the roof, she going to bust their asses. F**k Taurasi...
Look its something we need to understand. Going into the WNBA is like crossing over in a sorority. Its levels to this life.
Wow that graphic is mind boggling!
These Boxer short idiots played for Geno and power house Connecticut and beckles who is injury prone plays for same team ,nobody knew Iowa existed until Caitlin Clark,the Hate is deep nobody talks about the WNBA,until this woman came along
She's going g to force the women to do better. The whole WNBA has been stagnant like the Bulls were before Jordan got there
I remember pro golfers were also jealous of Tiger Woods until they realized Tiger's rise made their bank accounts twice as big.
I couldn't name ANY woman basketball player, college or pro until Caitlin came on the scene.
Only a Blind person couldn't see the Jealousy and Racism against Clark!
Taurasi used to be the golden child of WNBA and now CC is the golden girl of WNBA and she's really having a naricistic episode over it. Did you see that after the play dirty foul Taurisi did recently.... shows how petty and vengeful and spitelful she really is. I would love to see a last minute swapout for the olympic team of CC in and Taurasi out
She known as one of the biggest studs in the league
She’s like the all time leading scorer in WNBA
DT can't even dominate in WNBA even with a stacked Mercury line up
She has 3 titles and was just in the finals 3 years ago 😂
they will DO TO her LIKE EAGLES DID TO CARSON WENTZ SO SAD THEY ARE SO WORRIED THAT SHE WILL BE GREAT AND STAND OUT IN THE GAME ONLY
One should be glad to have new and different challenge. I would be on fire if someone go tell me “is that the best you can do?! Gotta man up💪🏾
😂😂😂😂 Like Diana Taurasi said, there are levels to this shit. So far, it seems like what she's been saying is spot on .Never ever question someone who is actually in the game. 🤡 💩
props to the SC coach for forcefully stating the obvious.
L. Edwards inspired Tspoon, R. Lobo n C. Cooper to be the best they could be in basketball. Then they inspired Diana T., Sue Bird, n Britney Griner to do their best in the sport. Then these 3 women inspired C. Clark to do her best on the court. Now she n the rest of the 2024 rookie class can discuss to the next generation of young women to follow whatever dreams they have. I'm happy to see that C. Clark can be part of the shining light.
What I think is hilarious is that even Paige wouldn't take herself over Caitlin Clark. 🤣😂😅😆
Fr🤣
i dont find it that far off. gop look at the numbers. all of them and not just what this dope told you to look at in the video. paige for her career and this past season by a LARGE margin for colege career anmd this season. paige .530% fg for carrer and this past season, .580%2pt fg for career and .588 for last season, .425 3p fg for career and .421 last season from 3. now lets look at caitlin .462 fg % for career and .455 for last season, .553 2p fr% for career and .571 last year and from 3 .377 for career and .378 last season. paige statistically speaking blew caitlin out the water. litereally not even close from 2 or 3 and she blows her oput the water when it comes to offensive raiting. pickingn paige over caitlin isnt crazy at all
@@ForEducationalPurposesOnly You seem to have no idea what you're talking about whatsoever. 🤦🤔🤫
And that's okay. Humans make mistakes.
@@DanDolphin4 I gave you the statistics. The ones he said show Caitlin is clearly better. And I showed you with those same stats Paige literally outshoots Caitlin from everywhere on the court by a large margin except free throw. And instead of saying how I'm wrong like I did( Bec I have a brain) you just say You're wrong. Well that's not good enough. Show me how I'm wrong
@@ForEducationalPurposesOnly
Caitlin outscored Paige last season by 10 points a game, beat her in assists by 5 a game, more rebounds by 2 a game, Paige got her by a quarter of a steel and she got her by a half a block.
Field goal percentage she got her by 7%.
53 to 46.
3-pointers she got her by 3%.
38 to 41.
And then Caitlin got her by 3% free throw shooting.
That's fine I'll give you that but who gives a s***. WHO CARES!!! Paige Becker's three-pointers are coming with her toes on the line. I don't see any big Logo highlights from Paige.
Caitlin shot 38% with an average 3-point distance of 27 ft!!
Caitlin PACKS stadiums!!!
Caitlin took a team with no WNBA players to the CHAMPIONSHIP game BACK-TO-BACK!!!!!!!!🔥🔥🔥🔥
That's why she's a SHOWSTOPPER ☀️
PAIGE BUECKER'S IS AN AMAZING BASKETBALL PLAYER.
I agree with you.
But she's not a SHOWSTOPPER 🤫👑🎊
SHE HASN'T COMMANDED THE ATTENTION OF THE ENTIRE WORLD🌎 🌍 🌏The basketball community knows about her but not the 🌎🌍🌏
Not sure what were at odds about.
Paige was a higher percentage shooter last season. 👍🎉🎊
Points. 31.7 21.9
Assists. 8.9 3.8
Rebounds 7.3 5.1
Steals. 1.8 2.2
Blocks 0.6 1.4
Field Goal %. 46.1 53.4

Free Throw % 86.2 83.4
Wait til next year and ask diana what crow tastes like!
The only way I would pay money to see a game with Taurasi would be if Caitlin Clark was playing in the same game. Taurasi is just a jealous old lady who needs to invest in a good rocking chair and remember to take her meds(she's obviously missing some of her dosages).
Taurasi is overrated at both the college and pro level. And she has never made an all-defensive team at the college or pro level. She will be 42 years old when she plays Clark and they play 3 times (the second and third time in Indiana). I would love to see Clark drop 50 on Taurasi especially if she has the guts to cover Clark in one of those 3 games.
Plot twist... Taurasi is doing this on purpose to generate more buzz for this upcoming season.
I'm glad she has a beast in Boston to probably make them immediate contenders this season. You can't double Clark and leave Boston open under the hoop. As Dawn said she will lift up the leauge. Also there is only one GOAT...
