A straight baller all the way around plays defense. Caitlin is an offensive threat, but a liability on defense. The Iowa coach does a good job of hiding her defensively.

A lot of the NBA playoffs games weren’t even being televised when they came into the league. Games that were were often on tape delay, due networks not wanting to play the games in prime time, since rating were so low, also most teams were losing money, think of the WNBA today, but quite as bad. The game exploded during the 80’s due to Magic and Bird. Jordan also helped when he entered the league in the mid 80’s. But, he didn’t take over until the early 90’s when the Bulls won 6 championships. The Lakers, Celtics, and then Pistons owned the 80’s. There wouldn’t have been fans interested in Jordan and the Bulls, if not for Bird and Magic.

Lynette Woodard wasn't ignored, unfortunately, her points came under 2 different sanctioning bodies, the AIAW and NCAA, because Kansas switched in '82 when the NCAA began women's tournaments. And Lynette isn't the high scorer of either. If you included the AIAW then Pearl Moore, the all-college all-time leader takes over with 4061 points. But the biggest hypocrisy of this issue is Grace Beyer of the NAIA just finished her collegiate career as their leading scorer 100 points shy of Pearl with 3,961 points during the same time as Caitlin was chasing Plum.

Has anyone actually ever been to a WNBA game? Has anyone actually watch old video of the WNBA back in the early years and up to today? The game has improved so much since the days of Swoopes - if you watch old tape of Swoopes you would soon realize that she technically would not be as good today in the WNBA. But with even that said - the WNBA is just flat out hard to watch - which makes it even harder to pay to go watch. I've did so for about 3-4 times a year for 3 years because of my daughters (who played basketball) but when they turned 15 & 16 they said they would rather go watch the NBA, men's college or even the local high school boys play. The game lacks speed, athleticism, creativity, excitement. Caitlin seems to have the ability to create excitement - but the pettiness of Swoopes reared her ugliness and tried to blow out a flame that could help the WNBA. The woke ALWAYS ends up destroying everything they touch.

3 point line? Rule changes benefitting offense? These things are worthy to note on why comparisons are meaningless. Throw in the fact that women are starting younger, training has improved, and coaching of young women has evolved. For me, more important than the records is the impact all these women have had on the game and the "we got next" of upcoming female ballers. Caitlin is amphenom..a phenom. NUFF SAID,

The NBA no longer puts an emphasis on defense, so why are we talking about Caitlin Clark being a WNBA superstar? She could easily average double figures in the NBA.

Everyone seems to be on the Caitlin Clark train. She is the highest scoring player of her generation. Her performance speaks for itself. However...comparing statistics between athletes of different generations and differing rules is just folly. Pistol Pete was not eligible to play varsity basketball as a freshman. The NCAA changed the rules in 1972. The NCAA did not introduce the three-point shot until 1986. Even arguing those two points, college basketball was a much different sport early on. For example, the shot clock was not introduced until 1985-86. The importance of the shot clock changed the strategy of many teams, which had, previously, employed stall tactics to protect their lead, thus almost mandating low scoring games. With the shot clock going from 45 seconds intially to then 35 seconds and finally 30 seconds in 2015, teams are more "run and gun". Remember the UNLV "Running Rebels"? That being said, Caitlin Clark is a head and shoulders above her peers. Women tend to do their full four years of eligibility in the NCAA, while many male players are "One and done". There are just too many variables in the record books to say who is the best all time. Imagine a Lew Alcindor playing all four years, or if there were no shot clock? Caitlin Clark is a worthy mention for all time best player, but one would only have to guess how many points Pete Maravich would have scored if he had been able to play as a freshman and make three-pointers. We will never know, because do not have all the film footage and too many variables exist, like supporting players, injuries, or even the argument of whether or not any of the older greats would have even made the varsity as freshman. Whatever your thoughts on Caitlin Clark, she should be celebrated for her multitudes of accomplishments above and beyond just her scoring ability. 1000+ assists and possibly 1000 rebounds, as a college player, is nothing to sneeze at either.

The ncaa and other college organizations got the COVID year crap all wrong. Dude playing college sports at 24 is crazy. But it also killed high school kids dreams because the didn’t get an extra year. The got onto college teams like baseball that’s had expanded COVID rosters. I know several that just walked a way because they had zero chance of getting playing time When they could start kids 4 and 5 years older. That were bigger and stronger.

and the Green Bay Packers have won { 13 } NFL championships in total, two 3 peats in that time, OH WAIT, most of that was before they changed to the " Super Bowl " format. Caitlin could beat Pearl Moores scoring record and STILL not be good enough because Pearl didn`t get credit for 3 point shots, current times are current times and now it is the NCAA format.

Hey Glad she bring light on WNBA because the NBA made it a one on one game. You get 4 years of eligibility and tough coming in at 17 and 18 to compete with men. Remember most these athletes this is it so they redshirt one year no big deal. Also Clark did it in 4 so what is this about?
