Blaming the style of play, which comes from Sides. Shooting is as much mental as it is physical. Caitlin just hasn’t looked comfortable shooting for a while….so who are you going to blame? You don’t just forget how to shoot.

Pretty good for a league that loses millions to have two uniforms for an all star game.
At some point in the last few months whenever Caitlin shoots a 3 I expect a miss.
Man, this bar in New Mexico is craving a swish.

CC is a freaking assist machine. Such good court awareness.
I think she's partially to blame, yes. This is due to her poor coaching, drawing up plays that don't get her decent looks, and obvious encouragement not to shoot the ball as much for the first 10 or so games of the season. I think she's let off of that line of thinking after her post game comment of saying CC needs to shoot more.
But I think a big factor for Caitlin has been fear. she's become more reluctant to shoot and less confident. Could just be the transition to the league, but this is a mental hurtle that she needs to overcome.
I think they took away her block, because CC doesn't have a block listed on the stat sheet on ESPN anymore.
Tell me how Taurasi is better that Ogunbowale?
Is it impossible for Clark to cut to the basket just ONCE IN A WHILE!
Arike's thoughts on not being on the Olympic team:
That’s terrible they left her off AGAINArike's thoughts on not being on the Olympic team:
You know they are likely auctioned for charity, right?
Most entertaining all star game I’ve ever watched regardless of sport.
Ogunbowale is by far the best player on the court tonight. She is absolutely cooking. Our Olympic team is old and slow.
Blaming Sides for Clark's shooting is a ridiculous take, why CC fans get a bad name. That issue goes back to the beginning of March.
Just stop.
Just stop.
A buck apiece, and $1000 for Clark’s.😂
I didn't realize an entertaining All-Star game was possible. Team USA might lose by double digits if they don't get their shit together in the 4th quarter.
Yeah, you’re right, Clark just forgot how to shoot….that makes much more sense.
The stakes are a little higher when it's team USA vs. the ladies that they said aren't good enough!
I don't think it was so much her shooting as it was the lack of opportunities. I blame tired legs for Clark and it might not get corrected until next season when she has an offseason to condition herself for the faster pace and actually having to contribute defensively.
CC to Angel for the layup!
The world is about to end....

As much as we all dislike Reese.... Her and CC would be a pretty good duo
Terrible take dude. Cmon.
You know when Reese got the pass before, she was running the floor thinking Clark would get her the ball.
This is an embarrassing showing for Team USA. They have been playing together for a LONG time
Team All Stars has had little time to practice together and they look incredible

Not as bad as people getting pissed at Clark saying she doesn’t know how to shoot anymore.
I’ll give credit where it is due. Angel corralling that pass on the run and laying it in was down right impressive. Feels better since she’s playing for the good girls this time at least.
Forget losing by double digits, Team USA might lose by 20+. Yikes.
It's reese's attitude that draws me away. She has the athleticism to be a good player. But I can not stand her personality
With a month of games ahead of them, I wouldn't be surprised if they let off the gas starting the second half. This is more of a show than it is a game.
