No question that everyone is getting more votes this year because of the fans who that came to the WNBA through Caitlin.
But
Boston was 4th in the voting last year….just a handful of votes from third…with a large lead over fifth…she has her own fans as well.
No - in the context of fan voting
Another No.
Have to be in the top 10 to make it, yes, but top ten. It’s not the top ten of non Olympic players…top ten. Only going to be a handful that are automatically in the team.
The fan votes are only half the vote.
The WNBA players vote as well and count for 25% of the vote.
Media that covers the WNBA get the other 25% of the vote.
Going to be tough for Kate to get enough support from the players and media to make the top 10 to be automatically selected.
The Dallas Wings really stink. They started 3-2, now they are 3-12. They lost to the Mystics today by 28 points. The Fever play them for the first time on July 17th, the last game before the Olympics break.

Indiana congressman Jim Banks has had enough. He sent a letter to the WNBA requesting that the league take action.
In a letter addressed to Cathy Engelbert, Commissioner of Women's National Basketball Association, Banks wrote:

Congrats for someone with some common sense to speak up
America must be absolutely in a much better place than four years ago, if this is the type of stupid shiz a US Congressman has time to worry about.
Well, a president spent a lot of his time trying to get a WNBA player back from Russia, so apparently the WNBA is important enough.
American citizens held by dictatorships on trumped up charges are usually a pretty big deal to the US State Department. We’ve gotten five back from Iran in the last calendar year alone. And while it isn’t a dictatorship, there was that dumbass we freed that was stupid enough to carry ammo in his luggage that we just saved.
🤣 🤣🤣....that's all I got 🤷♀️
Edit...It's actually mind-boggling there are people that can actually believe this

Watching the Phoenix Mercury & Minnesota Lynx.
I cannot in good consiousness select Brittany G. & Diana T to the Olympic team. Their form is horrible and neither is deserving. The eye test does not lie.
38-25 Lynx at the half. If you had two Olympians on your side, it would look different.?!?

Reminds me of how the USWNT tried to hang on to too many of the old players in the last World Cup. Spare me the “Taurasi is a legend so she gets to play anytime she wants” argument people make. It’s the Olympics, not some exhibition send-off match.
Well, she confessed to the charges, so I’m not sure how trumped up they were.
I’m not sure why we’re not suiting up Sheryl Swoopes and Maya Moore, since they’re legends too.
The tape continues to roll and the selection process continues to look more and more pathetic.
The WNBA "Old Heads" arguments is becoming untenable.
well.. if Taurasi is still getting lots of All Star Votes.. its hard to argue she doesn't belong
Oh...you're one of those who thinks the lockdown four years ago is better than NOT being locked down. What a silly thing to think.
My investments are up more than 4 years ago too. Not to mention we don't have a rapist conman in charge like 4 years ago.
The world is better off than it was 4 years ago? I don't know what credibility you had ... but I would suggest waiving bye bye to it.
Today's game:
Fever (7-10) at Chicago (5-9)
Tip: 3:00 pm CT
TV: eSECpn
Indiana is a 1.5 point favorite
O/U is 168.5
The Fever, at the moment, have the 8th best record in the W; the Sky are just 1/2 game behind. The top 8 teams make the season ending playoffs.

Remember when the last President broke up a pandemic team and then scoffed at thousands dying of COVID, then said it would probably go away like an Easter miracle, then our economy tanked, over 1 million Americans died? Oh, and also he instituted massive tax breaks for the wealthy and ballooned our national debt at a pace not seen before or since? Or how he kept telling us he had the best people but his administration was a revolving door of corruption that ran so rampant that he had over 20 convicted of felonies in his administration (before himself)? Or how as divider-in-Chief he inflamed tensions across this country ultimately ending in his electoral defeat, but he was such a narcissistic loser he led a violent coup of morons?
But now America’s GOP Congressmen are obsessed with Bud Light cans, NCAA rules, and infighting over their speaker. Ts and Ps on your brain injury.
Guys, let's not derail this thread. Please.
I like this thread.
Thank you!

Take the political crap to the off topic board.
Clark generally has 2 types of turnovers. Those where she is trying to make something happen (which are the ones where the recipients often deserve half the blame). And those where she is lazy in protecting her dribbling or lazy on the passes out of the double teams. She does need to work on reducing the 2nd type (I am confident that she will)
Lolol.. I get your point, but Swoopes couldn't get her fat A-- out of her warm up suit and down the floor even once.....
menace suckeyes is a woke idiot
