***Official Caitlin/Fever/Kate/Meg Games Mega Thread***

I dont think she is failing, I dont completely agree with his analysis. But I do agree that she is playing in a league that is tired of hearing about how great she is, is pissed off that she is walking in with a bag of money, the country is split amoung blue/red and a lot of the "new" faans are coming from the red side. There is also the racial dynamic. Hes right about the players and coaches not saying it, but ther body language, what they dont say, how they say what they do say, and the on the court actions make it really cleart that they want to shut her down. THe ways they games are reffed, it seems like they call her for ticky tak stuff while consistantly being one level below what the fouls merit. She is aon a bad team, but also the schedule is so unbalanced that it *looks* like it was designed to run the team off the rails. They played almost double the amount of games than the sun and aces in the first 20 days, and something like 70% were agaisnt last years tom 3/4 teams? It like the max difficulty level level on every setting is maxed out. If she makes it through the year, she is going to be a grizzled vet.
If nothing else this has put a pretty clear focus on just how poorly managed this league is. Front-loading the schedule both in terms of volume and the best teams, refs have clearly been told to let her take her lumps. Shitty product with shitty management.
 
Geno is full of shit on this one. I don’t think anyone on this site has said CC was going to walk in and dominate.
He made sure not to name this site nor Iowa fans. So I'm wondering if he is developing ,or in his own mind developing a Cult. Or if a cc cult is developing itself after college and into the pros.

That's dumb. I am a diehard 90s Bulls fan - ride or die. But they brought in Rodman and Kukoc. Not sure how that's different from Bosh and Wade.
Dumb you say? Like Rodman was one of the top players in the league? Not hardly. Great rebounder sure. And Kukoc was hardly even a household name, and he was drafted. We're talking about THE STARS banding together and deciding how the top players in the league should maniplulate the system and end up on ONE team. That has ZERO to do with TEAMS drafting players or trading for them. Just FYI Jordan and some other HOF players addressed this with a great deal of disdain and something they ALL said they would never have done. But hey, It's just me who thinks that....Just food for thought. What do you think would have happened to the league if MJ and Bird went to LA and played with Magic so that they could be assured that they would win a ring? Better for the league, the fans and the game, or not? Think about it......

I didn't think it was going to be a piece of cake for Caitlin to begin with, and I knew she would face plenty of defense, but I didn't think she would get physically mauled from the time she stepped on the floor until she stepped off.
 
The Bulls drafted Kukoc.
Exactly. Nice that someone else understands the difference between TEAMs building through legitimate means, (the draft, and signing players) to build a team, and the PLAYERS strong arming mgmt into signing the other top mercenaries.

They're all over CC already. At least she finally put a hand in her defender's face, drawing a foul.
 
Clark is being guarded so tough every game, I'm constantly worried she's going to get her pocket picked.

She needed that three to fall.
 
After one quarter, the FEVE lead 28-19

CC's stats:

Played all 10 minutes

1-2 (50%) from 3
1-1 (100%) from 2.
.....................
2-3 (67%)overall shooting

0-0 FTs

5 Points
5 Assists
2 Defensive Rebounds
1 Steal

1 Block

1 Turnover
0 Fouls
I think she has 2 steals.
 
Not really a good take by Gino.
He had some good points, but I think part of the issue with everyone, including Geno, is that too many people lump everyone into singular groups.

Not every Caitlin Clark fan expected her to be GOAT Jordan from Day 1. Not every WNBA player is jealous of the attention Clark has gotten............but some are.

This needs to be better explained by the people complaining about these individuals.......
