Chennedy Carter DOUBLES DOWN On Caitlin Clark Cheapshot 6 Months Later...

[@HighlightReelFactory]

@yngtrey1638 chennedy is the one still talking about it.... she posted it on social media... allowing people to be social about it.

[@sirtwentythree]

The two guys that squared up with each other were both ejected from the game, that's how the NBA does it. Carter on the other hand, was not ejected for the cheap shot on CC.

[@yngtrey1638]

Yeah and the nba is getting heat for being so soft, the WNBA is doing it the right way. Fans like you try to make it soft, it’s a sport. IT’s physical, if your emotions can’t handle it go watch a teen drama movie.

@@yngtrey1638Legal action, for assault is probably overkill. BUT, that being said the league and the referees FAILED MISERABLY by allowing a foul of this type to go unpunished. THAT is what everyone has a problem with. Nobody minds a hard foul but where is the line that determines what is a hard foul and what is a flagrant foul? It all goes back to officiating. Or more so the lack thereof.

[@jortizie]

You could never make me like Carter

[@ericMT]

This made me so angry hearing about it again. I really think the Pacers organization should have filed a lawsuit against the WNBA, Carter herself or the Sky ownership. Not to get money but to get her banned from the league. Zero remorse, she’s basically a psychopath. Prove me wrong. This is unacceptable and imagine if this move had put Caitlin out for the season? We are talking tens of millions of dollars lost because the league can’t be bothered to hire good officiating. This cannot happen to any player, it’s not just a Caitlin thing. Someone is going to have their career ended because of this monster.

[@jmikew417]

Her nick name should be "Cheap Shots Carter." She earned it 100% by herself.

[@twinforce_fusion6560]

If the players, the referees and the League will not protect CC against dangerous fouls and hits, CC should boycott all games that are played on the road. Why in the hell CC will give all that $$$ by filling out their centers and still gets beat the hell out. Will never happen, but would be okay for her to play only 20 games. Maybe it would be the only way the League to understand the situation.

[@comfortsheriff1352]

Caitlin Clark was talking to people like you who claimed to be her fans, you aren't CC fans, you are just a hater

[@zealazax6287]

Rotten inside and she desperately seeks attention and doesn't care what kind it is. The league should have suspended her. But no suprise there the refs didn't even call a flagrant foul. The league only changed the call because everyone was talking about it and maybe the league feared a legal trouble.

[@yngtrey1638]

And 6 months later y’all are still crying over a hard foul lol. Says things about both of y’all lol

[@laraby40]

Carter and eye gauge Carrington just dont belong in the league. Players should be able to play the game without being attacked.

I'd add Kahlea Copper to that list, just for what she did to Karly Samuelson.

[@mckennag04]

​@b-rad3681 unfortunately you are right

[@jaago1522]

I don't know, a few more draft classes of good professional players might be enough. Reese is the only drama queen from last year and she'll be out of the league in 2 years unless she puts in some serious work in the gym. By then a lot of the dinosaurs will be retired or riding the bench. Hiring professional referees this winter going into the season will hopefully clean up all of the no calls we saw last year. Englebert being fired for utter incompetence will help a lot too. Add in the new TV money and the WNBA might actually make a profit for the first time ever...

[@mckennag04]

@jaago1522 the Refs were instructed to let CC get abused by the league. It reminds me of Rollerball. CC is Jonathan. Watch the movie and you'll see

[@julianlane2638]

Oh I didn't do anything wrong. If you're playing in the NHL lol she should be charged with assault and fined

[@gregsmith3302]

If we could have a Chennedy Carter with Erica Wheeler's personality (for instance), she'd be one of the most popular and sought after players in the league. Few players are more fun to watch from a game play perspective and tougher to like from a personal perspective than dear ol Chennedy. Who I admit to having a soft spot for.

[@allstarfever1030]

Chennedy Carter is talented. She is a favorite of mine, but I don't agree with her most of the time.

[@lindadunbrack6498]

Caitlin was jawing in Carter's ear the whole way down the court. Carter reacted with the cheap shot. They should have called a flagrant 1.

[@Nerdlessly]

If she did nothing wrong, why is she still defending it? Should be a hard pass = get over it. As it turned out, it was one of the least vile or violent mugging attempts on Clark and that's saying something.

[@luihrms]

[@kentuckylucky5762]

Just suspend her next time .

Her facial expression on your thumbnail really sums it up.

[@AntiNeoFascist]

I love that your content and commentary on things, but you've got to do just a bit of prep and include some of the videos of the events you reference. You know you're gonna talk about Carter's cheap shot. You know you're gonna talk about Clarkson squaring off. Think of other examples you might bring up - like the Seattle flagrants - and have them ready to show. The best basketball channels I follow splice in clips as they talk about them. Even if it's "Take a look at this then we'll talk about it." with a hard cut to the clip (no voiceover). Again, love your perspective and how you get good commentary out, but it hurts that 90% of the time it's just you looking at a tweet.

[@EarthaKiddmore]

This is not a hockey league. Enforcers don’t belong in a basketball team’s strategy. For all of the garbage that has happened in the intention of punishing CC for being a skilled player, why is there no dialog about coaches setting standards and boundaries for the players? Weatherspoon should have sat Carter’s butt on the bench for the rest of the game. Instead, she either encouraged it or looked the other way. Either way, she supported the violence. The W is the way it is right now because crappy coaches and other leaders are not setting better standards & expectations.

[@dplagoon]

No one would want their daughter to behave this way on the court. Its wild that those defending Carter will go to bat for her because how uncomfortable it is to admit she's perpetuating a stereotype. Especially at a time when the narrative is so racially divisive from those extremities on both sides.

[@kytaem]

[@remproperties3560]

I appreciate you being able to talk about this from a non-biased perspective towards Chennedy. I agree she’s a great player and like her game, as a Caitlin fan and have moved on. I can understand what she’s saying about the double standard, but definitely not the same thing like the example she used.

[@ecalager]

Two players not touch with a ten foot pole: Chennedy Carter and Angel Reese. Drama, drama, and assault and battery. The Fever should stay far far away from Chennedy Carter and never consider trading for her.

[@Justin_Watson23]

If I'm the Fever, I would have taken up Angel McCoughtry's offer to be an enforcer for CC if CC isn't going to protect herself. If McCoughtry checks Carter into the stands after that bush league move, I bet these players are going to be MUCH more hesitant to do shit like that. Jordan had an enforcer, Mario Lemieux had an enforcer, & Bird was his own enforcer. You protect yourself or acquire someone to protect you as a star. All this stuff ends when emotional players have pay a physical price for not being able to control their emotions. Facts of life.

[@joelsdobermans45]

Is she someone that you would want your daughter to look up to?

[@henrymarkson3758]

Carter is right. This incident would have been handled differently in the NBA. Firstly, they don't let you get away with cowardly sucker punches in the NBA. The whole opposition team would have been all over her. Secondly, after the opposition were done with her, her own teammates would call her a moron for potentially causing a career ending injury to a fellow professional.

[@cjprince1]

No one has been talking about Carter since August, so she had to pull something from the middle 😮of last season to get her name back out there...

[@StarTraffic-z1o]

Reporters ask her questions and so she answers.

[@timwoody3835]

We’ll see what happens next year on the Caitlin getting no calls situation as well as the Chenedy Carter flagrant foul situation. It just depends an improved refereeing corps whether the foul situation gets better next year. If the refereeing improves next year it will be just another thing that the WNBA will have to thank Caitlin for.

[@realMDizzy]

What would be more comparable is the Jokic Morris incident.

[@nathanedison8692]

So is it that “the W is more physical”? Or that there’s a double standard for women showing emotion? Because you can’t have both as the explanation for the same incident. Never mind the fact that neither explanation applies to this particular case.

[@jojolina7]

It wasn’t a lapse. It’s her personality. I can tell she’s been through some things and has anger issues but that shouldn’t be other players’ problem.

[@Darkmoonrose888]

Just because she can play well doesnt't mean she "deserves" to be in thr WNBA, there is more to being a professional than just talent. In my field, I know some amazingly talented people who will never make a big name for themselves in the industry for a variety of reasons (laziness, alcohol, cannot work with others, etc.). It is incrediblely rare to be so good that all other flaws will be overlooked and let's ve blunt, as hood as Carter is, she isn't Michael Jordan good. To her credit she was cleaning up her act though.

[@anthonytaylor7928]

[@cathygregory3443]

My sense is that one of Mick's major issues with this is Carter's very sad continued sabotaging of herself. She really is a good player, has the fire and skill to add excitement on the court, and it's tragic that she can't seem to process things well enough to learn not to destroy herself. She is a microcosm of some of the worst tendencies in the W as a whole and we really feel the frustration of all of that.

Personally, I would have taken Mayonnaise out if I was her teammate by a well timed elbow on a blind screen or follow through on a layup and would have welcomed the consequences. The code has always been, protect your stars (generally include Refs, but these aholes condoned the abuse). IMO her teammates didn't do enough

[@godkot4466]

I don't blame her. Clark enables all these stuff, so who am i to argue. I've followed the NBA for 15 years now, and players have always called out dirty plays and cheapshots. Clark has decided to take the high road everytime for some reason. Personally, i think the more she does that, the more she'll get more dirty plays.

[@WitnesstotheCrime]

Even if you call it a cheap shot. A flagrant 2. Is this worth talking about 6 six months later? Mick is proving Chennedy right about the double standard. We would never be talking about a a cheap shot in the NBA six months later.
