The CC Show....
- Thread starter Joes Place
- Start date
Shocked, actually, that I've seen no "Fever Cowbell" merch out there.
Do they disallow those at games? Cuz I'd be handing them out as promos for big games...
The only good thing that came from this thread is i know my vote for wpoty
Joes Place is the message board equivalent of the Sarlacc from “Return of the Jedi”.
I have only made posts here with Twitter content that points to CC's numbers. Some compare/contrast her numbers with other players current and in the past. Doesn't mean we are saying she is close to league MVP (I made no such claim).
And, I don't post anything on Twitter.
Actually I read a quote from her earlier this season where she said she doubts she’ll ever move back to Iowa.
Just another example of that dreaded brain drain, eh?
‘That does not mean she's the best player in the league; most of the top tier players have 3+ yrs experience before they achieve that.’
The people entrusted with that decision say 4th in the MVP voting. As far as ‘most of the top tier’ CC has been voted to be above ‘most’
You think it was a popularity contest. Either way the votes are in the ballots have been tabulated and
Voters >>>>>>>>>> Your opinion
Yes; I told you it was more of a popularity contest. There are several other players who have been "lights out" in their playoffs games.
CC had one "good" game, but was not even the best player on that floor that day.
Re-read that until it sinks in for you.
Please parse the voting on merit versus popularity. What should have been the correct order of finish? Follow up question would be based on what criteria (other than being on a better team advancing in the playoffs).
Looking back at Clark’s rookie season and all the accolades she received, the thought occurred to me that she probably should’ve been on the Olympic team.
What do you all think?
What do you all think?
If she was playing in June at the level she was playing at by season's end, absolutely.
Unfortunately, that was clearly not the case.
There were better options than Taurasi, as well.
Amazing and well deserved accomplishment to finish as 4th in MVP voting.
Is it as impressive as actually winning WPOTY here though?

Well I did as I was told. Re read it. Let’s see how well it sunk in.
‘Yes; I told you’
So what? Your opinion doesn’t matter.
Take your own advice and learn this
Voters >>>>>>> your opinion.
You don’t have a vote. The voters don’t give any validity to your opinion.
Let’s see if you can follow the pattern
‘There are several other players who have been "lights out" in their playoffs games.’
Once again
So what? The votes were already cast and they were based on the entirety of the season.
Once again
Voters >>>>>>> anything you are trying to say
For the hat trick
‘CC had one "good" game, but was not even the best player on that floor that day.’
For the third time
So what? No impact on the vote.
Voters >>>>>>>> you
Be better. That was a pathetic attempt. Absolutely zero relevance. Time for you to make up some more lies.
Well at least you didn’t lie in that post.
You also couldn’t refute the facts.
Not unanimous...ridiculous.
"Indiana Fever guard Caitlin Clark was a near-unanimous pick for WNBA Rookie of the Year, the league announced Thursday.
Clark, the No. 1 draft pick in April, got 66 of 67 votes from a national media panel. The other vote went to the Chicago Sky's Angel Reese, who was the No. 7 pick in the draft."

This is just a wild guess, but any chance the one person who voted for Reese is Black?
Gabby Williams made her season debut in the EuroLeague last night for Fenerbahçe of Turkey. The game didn’t last very long, though, because fans started throwing firecrackers onto the court shortly after it started and they had to postpone the game.
My bad: I thought CC was supposed to be on the Olympic team to inspire the next generation of women athletes....
Congrats to the Olympic snub on her first team all-WNBA selection!
There were 67 voters for Rookie of the Year. 66 of them picked Clark and one (1) chose Reese.
There were 67 voters for All-WNBA. 52 of them put Clark on their first team, 14 placed her on their second team, and one (1) voter did not put her on their ballot at all.
I don’t know if it’s the same 67 voters, but it sure seems like one of them despises Clark.
Sheryl Joe must have a vote
Not sure what point you're trying to make, as I'd stated unequivocally that she was ROY over Reese, many times.
Go re-read them.
She started the season about league averageNot bad for league average.........
She finished the season (particularly after the break) well above that
Those metrics were posted for you many pages ago.
Too many 9 point steals in those metrics.
Isn’t it time for you to lie again by quoting a post you changed? Character personified.
