The CC Show....
- Thread starter Joes Place
- Start date
You do need "minutes".
Want to guess how many "minutes" Martin clocked in the game an hour ago?
Now 312
Will break the season record almost certainly in the next game.
She had a rough night vs the Aces (one of her worst as a pro). But bad games happen; I expect a big bounce-back on Friday.

Caitlin Clark is the best player, all-around, in the WNBA. And if you don't agree, you're wrong.
I’m a huge fan of CC, but no. She will be in the MVP discussion for years to come. But A’ja Wilson is a force of nature and is clearly the best all-around player in the world right now.
Wilson is the MVP player this year, but the most impactful rookie for for the league and their team is Clark. No one else has drawn viewers or excitement toward the WNBA like Clark. Personally I never watched men's or women's basketball on TV until last year due to CC. Now I don't miss her pro games. She may not be the best WNBA player this year, but she's generated more excitement, fans, and revenue to women's basketball than anyone in history
CC's rookie season compares pretty favorably to hers, although A'ja was a more consistent performer.
Clark’s impact on the league is completely unprecedented. Certainly in the WNBA and arguably in any sport in my lifetime. The only athlete who comes to mind who had a similar impact on the popularity of their sport was Tiger Woods. Ten years from now there will be rookies in the WNBA saying that Caitlin Clark is the reason they became a basketball player.
But right now on the court, between the lines, A’ja Wilson is in a class all her own.
Yep. Pretty shocking and incredibly stupid that anyone would ever leave her off olympics. Only complete idiots would think she shouldn't be on the team
Incredible. Imagine being so effing dumb to argue that she shouldn't have been on the Olympic team! There can't possibly be anyone that stupid can there??
Indeed. Ignoring all the data posted above, and still making that sorry claim.
A’ja Wilson is the best player in the WNBA this year, but the most league's most "VALUABLE" player is Clark.
IF's season pretty much turned around when she upped her play level. Certainly, from that perspective she's MVP. But agree, not (yet) the best the league has to offer. Putting up a rookie season on par w/ A'ja will probably set her up for future MVP awards, though.
Not arguing, A’ja Wilson has been the best player in the WNBA this year, just pointing out CC has brought the most "value" to the league.
Speaking of A’ja Wilson, she scored 29 points tonight to become the first player in league history to score 1000 points in a single season. Her Aces beat Connecticut to sweep the season series and keep alive their slim hopes of earning the #3 seed.
If Las Vegas beats Seattle and Dallas this week and Connecticut loses to both Minnesota and Chicago then Las Vegas will claim the #3 seed and a first round date with Indiana. Given Chicago’s tailspin, that seems pretty unlikely.
On the flip side, Connecticut still has a shot at the #2 seed. If the Sun beats both Minnesota and Chicago and the Lynx also lose to Los Angeles then Connecticut jumps over Minnesota to the #2 seed and the Lynx would play Indiana in the opening round.
Any other combination of wins or losses by those three teams means Connecticut plays Indiana in the first round.

Out of those three, Indiana probably wants to play Connecticut right?
Thought this was funny, but I can see it. CC is probably competitive in everything.
None of the three are a particularly good matchup for Indiana, but if it was up to me I would probably choose Connecticut. The Fever have had no answer for A’ja Wilson or Napheesa Collier. Las Vegas is the only team they didn’t beat this year, and their one win against Minnesota was with Collier sidelined by an injury.
It would be nice if the Fever was guaranteed at least one home game in the playoffs, but that’s not the case in the short first round. Indiana will have to win at least one of the first two games on the road. But the plus side to that is that if they can manage a split of the first two games then the deciding Game 3 will be in Indy. Gainbridge would be an absolute madhouse.
Curious what the ratings will be for her playoff games. Guessing through the roof.
Olympic committee will look like idiots yet again after seeing the ratings I would imagine. Whole lot of morons in that room looking more stupid by the day. Must be a terrible feeling to be that dumb

She is such a complete idiot. And to think she posts on this website and even created this thread
Swoopes is an idiot with an irrational disdain for CC, but I don’t completely disagree with her here.
Clark is a difference maker who has elevated the team and energized the entire franchise. But is she ‘dominant’? I think that depends on your definition of ‘dominant’.
A’ja Wilson is dominant. Clark is going to be at some point, but I’m not sure she’s quite there yet.
She has had "dominant" games; but has not had the consistency of Wilson.
Rookie season is pretty comparable to Wilson over her last 20+ games
We now know that Indiana will not be playing Minnesota in the first round. The Lynx held off a furious rally by Connecticut to beat the Sun on a 33-foot shot by Bridget Carleton with 4 seconds remaining.
The Lynx have clinched the #2 seed and Indiana’s opening round opponent will be either Connecticut or Las Vegas. The Aces are playing Seattle later tonight. If the Storm win then Indiana will play Connecticut in the first round. If Las Vegas wins then we won’t know Indiana’s opponent until after Thursday’s season finales.

If its Indiana-Connecticut, that series will get veeerrrry chippy
Swoopes is determined to be Clark’s #1 antagonist for some reason and she doesn’t care how stupid she looks in the process. She’s now claiming that several Fever players want out of Indiana because they’re tired of dealing with Clark’s supporters. She specifically mentioned Aliyah Boston but strongly implied there are several others.
Those Fever players HATE playing in front of packed crowds, yo!
The funny thing is, Swoopes even admits she has zero evidence to support her claim. It’s just something she decided to speculate and stir up some shit. It’s like she’s daring the Wings to fire her.
