Again NOT the same thing at all to chasing a player around the court after the game was over and making three seperate attempts to provoke her.......
Perhaps...but she "waved" her off in front of God and everyone including a national TV audience....Im not defending either player here....just stating what I saw on TV and what I have heard others say......
 
Be serious. You know damn well if Clark had done that, the culture club would have beaten her to death in the media. Do you really think the 3 black ladies doing the game and interview after would have been as jovial with her as they were with Reese. They just let her have a pass because "she from the hood" , in her own words. They were yucking it up with her like they went to a damn comedy show.
Pure speculation on your part here......Get over it...its was a damned basketball game! Dont let it ruin your life.

Dude its not ruining anything of mine. Unfortunately the game has been tarnished so badly that there isn't a media person talking about anything but this mess. Look farther into some of these threads. Reese is still today, making public gestures on tik tok and other social media, throwing shit and all of its directed at Clark. She needs some help, seriously......

Who the phuque cares what a girl BB player from LSU is doing today? The game is over. Move on! This is the age we all live in now......as long as you scratch the mosquito bite, it'll itch. Let her have her fun.....or whatever.

Obviously a lot of people care considering the number of media types who are chiming in. I could care less other then this huge point. This has once again become about race, even though it has nothing to do with any of that, but the "culture" has to once again move yet another conversation in that direction when it had nothing to do with that. This is way bigger then Reese and Clark, Read the comments from both races on the posts. This is a societal issue that festers constantly.....
 
As many have mentioned, the problem is that angel followed her around the court when the game was over and Clark was avoiding her.
Angel is jealous of Clark and this is her time to bask in the moment. No one will remember angel in a few years outside of LSU fans but everyone watching women’s basketball the last few years will remember Clark and what she did for the game.
 
Who? Who is labeling her as "racist"?
I have heard some say what Reece did to Caitlan was not any different than what Caitlan did to the SoCar player in the semis.....and that is a legit point.
This is all about "swag" and very little to do about racism....but the lines get a little fuzzy with emotions.
honest question…what did Caitlen do to the SC player other than egg her on to take the shot? the people who are being critical of the Hawks strategy of allowing and encouraging SC to shoot from three do not understand the game at all. btw, a strategy that helped win the game. nothing “legit” about it. Reece wanted a reaction that she never received. go to u-tube there are half a dozen videos of Reece getting technicals for taunting and none get close to what she did to Clark….completely unwarrented and completely without class.

It’s like people want Bill Belichick and the Patriots to apologize to somebody that he ran the ball 46 times and threw the ball 3 times against the Bills in 2021. They won. And then they played the Colts next and threw the ball 45 times and lost. It’s called a game plan. 🤷‍♂️

This is stupid. Caitlin talks trash and takes trash. Jordan talked trash but wouldn't have followed a player around because he knew his status. Reese knows she is not Clark and isnjjealous so she had to try to knockdown the standard in Clark. Saying she was disrespected because nif what happened to another team, utter BS. Has she ever done that for another player on a another team.

Also, you talk trash when you deliver. Reese didn't win them the game, that backup did. It anyone should have been talking trash it would have been that player rather than someone who had less than half the points that Clark did. She cared more about getting notice trying to smack Caitlin than thanking her teammate.

The comparisons of both doing it is stupid. They are different in length and timing. I don't really care about that as much as Reese tweeting about it and going full dog after the game. If she felt that way she should have called Clark out before the game.
 
I mean there were a lot of Hawk fans that were sick of the Bohannon theatrics. Reese actually backed it up. And comparing what Clark did to what happened yesterday, is just a non starter.
 
Too bad the ncaa and the ref that put out the rule from the rule book on social media why Clark got a T was not taking as much heat as the Clark/Reese encounter. I mean was anyone really surprised that a gal who has a crown on the bench for pre game teammate handshakes would do this.

The hell it doesnt have anything to do about race! The LSU player made it so in her postgame...and then the media fed into it and some pushed back and some defended her......
 
He is the one who said Ohtani should speak English in America and put down Steve Nash fo getting the Nets job for being white both racist statements

YES, it is about race, but thats not what the person who started all this is saying, Which IS my point entirely. She says its about Clark disrespecting her which is BS. Its about the white girl getting ALL the attention, and how could that be when she's not a "dog from the hood". In one of her last messages Reeses says, "Clark don't get to disrespect me, I do the disrespecting". I think you misunderstood my post. I clearly said this is a societal issue between the races. Thats clear just by reading the posts from all the different sites....
 
with a waving motion made by the back of her hand? ;)
yep, come and take the shot……not a technical action. you really equate what Reece did with that, in any way? What Reece did is an automatic tech btw.

Well automatic unless the three refs decide not to pay any attention to her antics, meanwhile give Clark a T for tossing the ball out if bounds on a dead ball, (which is NOT a delay of game).
 
Would people have an issue if Reese just kept it at the shit talk at the foul line? I personally don’t think it would be, and the main focus would be how big of a joke the refs were. The weird part is her following Caitlin around for the last ~15 seconds when she’s about to win the biggest game of her life. Hard to convince me Caitlin wouldn’t be getting killed for that in the media as well. Seems like people are just using the 2 second clip for this argument instead of what actually happened
100% agree and then continuing to bitch about CC during the postgame and on social media. Really strange obsession/reaction for a 2 second can’t see me gesture by Clark and a wave to a SC player who had all the room in the world to dribble penetrate all game but didn’t…but yeah the disrespect is real smh
 
We already know how Clark would react. We saw her actions in the semifinals. There was no disrespect shown. Not guarding a non 3 point shooter at the 3 point line is just smart basketball and it worked. Nobody guarded Rebacca there either on the men's side.

That wasn't what I saw....it was #22 flopping her back hand at her...and then #22 backed off deeper into the paint leaving the USC player more alone with the ball....
Im not saying it was a "technical" action.....but it certainly could have been (and was) interpreted by some who witnessed it as an act of "disrespect"......

excuse me....BUT I didn't hear the LSU player say that...What I heard her say was that she thought #22 "disrespected" USC....another SEC team...and LSU took exception to having someone "disrespect" their League.....THAT is what the gal said.

OMG. it was an act of saying go ahead shoot/drive. but of course there must be a rule that you have to go and defend…not sure I have ever heard of that rule though. only disrespect was not being concerned about this person’s 3 point %. but lose the game and because you must respect her shooting ability even though past performance says differently

That would have been an extremely ugly look. I agree -- considering how awful Reese acted, it would have been easy for Caitlin to turn around and smack her. Very glad the Hawks took the high road, from Coach Bluder on down, from the court to the press conference. Nobody took the bait from Reese or any reporters. It could have been a horrible look if they had -- but that also would have been completely uncharacteristic of this staff and this team.
I begrudgingly agree with you, but part of me would have loved to have seen Caitlin smack that bitch Reese. 😉
 
Joel she is already being labeled a racist on social media and she didn’t do a damn thing
Really?!? I’m not on social media…but are some people saying CC is a racist? If so, based on what???
