Not interested before. Too bad they are all racists and bigots, amirite?

Also, if you don’t find it entertaining, how much WNBA have you watched this season? You really have made some very confident assertions tonight, so I assumed you were an avid watcher to have such strong opinions such that anyone who disagrees is racially prejudiced

Caitlin Clark being left off team USA shows the cattiness of the WNBA

I don’t care about business or viewership, pick the best players. Period.

Indy Coug

This is the right answer. It would have been even worse for her if she was

Not when you’re trying to grow the game, then it’s a dumb move

If they had tryouts and she missed like stated below then I take it back

If you don't want the jealousy against Clark to grow, don't treat her different.

runnincoug

Jun 8, 6:44pm

I could not care less about the jealousy against Clark! Anyone JEALOUS of Clark

Endocoug

Jun 8, 7:04pm

Why do you believe she is the future of the sport?

Archaea

Jun 8, 7:20pm

she is the most popular women’s basketball player to ever

Endocoug

Jun 8, 7:28pm

Being popular doesn’t make you the future

Archaea

Jun 9, 5:38pm

It makes "no" sense leaving her off? What's the rationale for her being a top 12

runnincoug

Jun 8, 7:25pm

She is THE (#1) most popular female basketball player ever

Endocoug

Jun 8, 7:31pm

The olympics are not about popularity. That's where we disagree. If it was,

Business is the only thing that matters. No mon' no fun.

Exactly, are you chosing the best players or the most popular players

Jun 8, 6:37pm

The original dream team would like a word!

Everyone agreed then and now that adding Laettner was dumb. No one

Jun 9, 10:02am

She is not remotely close

Archaea

Jun 8, 6:37pm

She’s not remotely the top 12 US female in bbal?? I beg to differ

ABN RGR

Jun 8, 6:40pm

Not remotely close.

Archaea

Jun 8, 6:42pm

She's 13th in scoring, 4th assists, 17th in steals, 18th in blocks. Seems closer to top 12 than not remotely close to me

Spiff

Jun 8, 6:47pm

So a volume player is judged solely on stats? No, you like her

Archaea

Jun 8, 6:50pm

If she didn't show up for tryouts, then she shouldn't be on the team. I'm ok w/ a rookie having to tryout.

Spiff

Jun 8, 6:54pm

She was playing in the Final Four and so missed the tryout camp, which is not

chilawcoug

Jun 8, 6:54pm

Treat rookies all the same. No special treatment. It’s not like she’s A’ja

Archaea

Jun 8, 6:58pm

I’m not saying that. I’m saying it’s being mischaracterized as “not showing up”

chilawcoug

Jun 8, 7:03pm

So? Why should rookies be that important?

Archaea

Jun 8, 7:05pm

Cool story

chilawcoug

Jun 8, 7:07pm

If she is good enough, she will earn her way on in four years.

Archaea

Jun 8, 7:12pm

Cool

You keep saying didn’t show up. It wasn’t like she blew it off. She was playing

Archaea

Once again, you dodge the point and assign someone a position he never took

chilawcoug

Jun 8, 7:13pm

Wow. Right to calling me a racist. Nice.

Spiff

Jun 8, 8:04pm

How many are foreign? (I don’t know wbb well enough, but I guess there’s some)

ABN RGR

Jun 8, 8:05pm

She's going to shatter the WNBA record for most turnovers in a season.

Y05

Jun 8, 6:43pm

Yeah these turnovers are egregious

chilawcoug

Jun 8, 6:57pm

The entire world is conspiring to keep poor CC down.

Archaea

Jun 8, 7:13pm

No I just thought the videos were funny in the context of the response.

chilawcoug

Jun 8, 7:15pm

There are always some head scratchers from stats people, but

Archaea

Jun 8, 7:18pm

I’ve watched enough to know her turnover problem is bad right now. I know you

chilawcoug

Jun 8, 7:20pm

She may become a good pro player. I have tried to like women’s bball

Archaea

chilawcoug

Jun 8, 7:24pm

I watch the Aces because they are the local team

Archaea

Jun 9, 8:31am

Considering how dominant the US Women are in the Olympics, it's likely her turnover problem would be resolved by a

Spiff

Jun 8, 7:21pm

Nope, not yet. I think she will be eventually, but not close right now.

runnincoug

Jun 8, 6:46pm

To all those saying no:

chilawcoug

Jun 8, 6:49pm

Because the season is young and they don’t like the undue attention she receives

Archaea

Jun 8, 6:51pm

Wow. It’s amazing so many coaches and players are purposefully making their

Jun 8, 6:53pm

More like, whoever is guarding her that night is extra attentive so they don't

runnincoug

Jun 8, 7:03pm

You’d think some coach at this point would stop that selfishness

chilawcoug

Jun 8, 7:07pm

"Hey, you, player! Stop trying to defend so dang hard tonight!" It's selfish!

runnincoug

Jun 8, 7:27pm

No coach is going to tell a player to stop faceguardingher opponent full court?

chilawcoug

Jun 8, 7:33pm

That'd make sense if it were a single defender. Why the double teams?

ryebrye

Jun 8, 7:38pm

The defensive gameplan should nearly always be to double the other team's best.

runnincoug

Jun 9, 9:16am

What are Plum, Ionescu, and Stewart?

Jun 8, 7:28pm

WNBA advanced stats have CC as 7th best guard in league (under efficency stat)

They left off Reese and Brink as well.
