NBA Players BREAK Their Silence in Defense of Caitlin Clark

[@judybertagna4527]

Jealousy is destroying the WNBA. YOU LADIES HAD YOUR CHANCE, BUT YOU DESTROYED IT WITH YOUR GREEN EYE JEALOUSY. GOOD LUCK TO KAITLYN CLARK. I HOPE SHE SOARS.

[@steveosborne1239]

And racist black privilege mentality and you support for segregated BLM hatred and of the USA Rather then being fair and honest

[@oceanscaper]

Carrington should be in jail for the eye stab…

[@HungryH1951]

True it was assault and battery with intent to harm. This is at minimum a misdemeanor and possible felony. Just because you are playing basketball does not make it legal.

[@Mary-x9b9x]

That’s one thing about Stephanie the new coach. Doesn’t seem like she managed her team for even ok behavior. That says something about her as a person

[@SunshineJohnson-g3n]

Agree

[@fcguam3939]

Yes

[@dixieforbes-gorby896]

When i saw the clip of nylissa and Carrington making fun of the stab, i knew that nylissa was not fit for thr fever​@HungryH1951

[@devonlindsay3879]

She's a phenomenal player. But she is also a woman who emanates grace and class; she is electric and you can't turn away. No one can fake or learn what she has and is. That's why so many of us accidentally saw her flash across our phones and were immediately hooked on basketball for god's sake, but basketball only when she was playing.

[@williamrommel9694]

Basketball has fallen to the bottom of my sports interests. I was really excited when Minnesota got a pro team back after losing the Lakers. And I was happy for the expansion into women pro basketball. But with the appearance of CC to the college game I was introduced to what I call a complete and exceptional player. A young stand out player completely hooked me on Clark's journey. Now I am addicted and I want to see the league become self sufficient. All because of one shining light.

[@beanzieobeanz2955]

you have elegantly grasped and expressed the truth here

[@tracyshipman5728]

That's true 👍 💯

[@jewellcovert2166]

CC is admired for her amazing talents

[@albertrodriguez4190]

It's the skill level. Sorry, it's not what your skin color is nor your height. This is a sport. Competitive. No excuse. Play clean look good make money. This is a business. Your selling a product. You. Performance counts. Personally attitude and as important skill

[@joannebies3879]

NBA stars came out first to support Caitlin. Too bad the WNBA and Fever management fell down on the job and DID NOT support her when she was assaulted on the court by other players or when the referees were “compromised” which happened the whole season towards Caitlin. Caitlin’s basketball IQ is off the charts. She really “coached” the Fever team to the playoffs. I love Tyrese’s respect for Caitlin

[@johnraymond9170]

It’s only new to the W, Iowa has known about her for years. She was always must see TV. People would line up for hours to get a seat in away arenas just to watch her play. She could sell tickets to her practice routines, she’s that popular.

[@ninakosi7979]

The hate and jealousy for CC is much more intense because those praises comes from male, black and good , well known players mostly. She humble, clean, straight and good hearted.

[@JamesBurden-zy8kc]

Your so right,first degree assault.

[@eytonshalomsandiego]

love how gracious these guy are, unlike some of her female colleages..

[@constantinetumino1661]

Kobe Bryant would have been screaming from the rafter’s what has been going on!

[@ninakosi7979]

The jealousy and hate is more

[@scottlanesimpson]

Got to love this stuff… Anytime you can come with the big guns everybody wants to listen. My hope is next year everybody just gets to work and they play they at the top of their games.

[@lesliegreenhalgh5478]

If she was not EYE GOUGED she would have done more - it’s a disgrace

[@Puppathepup]

Her shooting was off that game due to it. She doesn’t want to say it but I know how it is having a little piece of dust in my eye let alone getting hit in the eye.

[@Curiousever]

That DELIBERATE eye poke changed the course of the playoffs.

[@kenneth9874]

It cost them the game

[@daledowden7954]

That was the single most dirty thing ever done in the game of basketball until every ref in that game all acted like they didn't see it happen. 😮 The entire sold-out crowd saw it happen. 😮 it happened to the one with the ball. 😮... That was despicable ... Every ref there should be banned forever. 😮

[@davidjackson1138]

If she continues down the path she is on she will be the goat of the WNBA

[@fcguam3939]

Yes , NBA players are NOT BLIND but WNBA COMMISSIONER is SUPER BLIND🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️

[@MichaelHensley-dw8bc]

[@NolaDrake-d7j]

Tyrese was talking about Kelsey Mitchell, and you showed Kelsey Plum!! Get your shit straight!! KM deserves her flowers, too!!

[@flyaway2ak]

I am not watching the rivalry. I am for the basketball skills I have never seen any like in in many years.

[@keithlirvine]

I tried. I watched the WNBA because of Caitlin but the other teams are unwatchable. I won't watch any more WNBA in the future. ❤GOOD LUCK CAITLIN!❤

[@Honest_cheater]

Same!

[@robertstanford1778]

Caitlin has always given flowers to the women that set the table for her. Tamika Catchings, Maya Moore, Candace Parker, Cheryl Miller even Sheryl Swoops. were all her heros as a young girl and they imspired her to greatness.

[@durwoodgray3821]

Someone needs to do something about the Refs. They suck.

[@ep9421]

One thing I don't like about the Fever,is that they don't support Caitlin on the court when she's getting bullied

[@keebmarketing]

I cannot stand when people start getting all in the during slavery and the ancestors... and who "paved" the way. TF?! What year did the WNBA begin? 1997 not fkn 1902 The league was open to all races to participate in. Furthermore there were white players that were more skilled than blackkplayers...But everytime someone mentions clark they bring this trash up. What, ONLY BLACK PLAYERS participated in the league? What, black players were prohibited to play and had to rally, protest, and break down these barriers? NO Sooo as a black person, when you only mention the black players "paving" the the way and not mention white players doing tbe same... Mentioning someone who came before anybody... Is an attempt to diminish Whatever greatness you see in front of you.

[@DavidMello-b2e]

Yeah but that's not her Fault that everyone's talking about her.They should starte talking about the women that did what they did to make the league What it is that's not her fault. In Caitlyn, Clark aint never said nothing bad about them.Women, she doesn't say anything.She just works out and plays her game.That's on everybody else

[@trudyisaacs840]

Of course NBA players are speaking up. They've financed the WNBA for years, and with Caitlin Clark, and the viewership she brought in just her rookie year, they could offload that burden. But jealousy, envy, and racism in the WNBA has Caitlin's fans urging her to walk away from the WNBA, and take her talent and her money-making ability with her. So the NBA has stepped in and chastised the WNBA for their treatment of Clark. But as long as they have thugs playing in the WNBA, and the powers that be won't step in and put an end to literal assaults perpetrated by those thugs, no superior collegiate players are going to want to play in the WNBA. And the average citizen isn't going to pay good money to see thugs. Personally, I'd like to see the NBA stop providing financial support for the WNBA until they clean up their act. Or go under.

[@Thato3626]

sad that you don't see women not some not supporting her .....She is dammmmmm good!!!!

[@RafaelSanchoMorales]

When jealousies and greatness collides.

[@funkychicken2119]

Just goes to show how jealous women are and how petty they can be.

[@jerryhaines5168]

She is more like Koby than LeBron she plays both ways but love the fact that he is taking up for her her talent is what makes her special and she is getting the same hate that Larry Bird got because she is white and she is preforming at such a high level and she will get better it will be special to watch

[@robyncouchman5691]

They are not ladies.

[@kenneth9874]

That intentional eye jab cost them the game and carrington should have been immediately ejected from the game and disciplined.

[@louielouie9768]

EVERYBODY but Caitlin is talking.. everyone else talks about Caitlin but Caitlin.. Caitlin to date hasn’t once ever spoke about the nonsense.. she just played her game and that’s it.. while everyone else continues to talk….

[@joecampbell2496]

I been all in on CAITLYNN CLARK since her last year in college, the first time I ever saw her. It was super easy to do. I was confused by all the hate that revenue hemorrhaging league placed upon her. How could SO MANY PEOPLE in said league embrace hate so brazenly? So stupidly? Then we had the election.

[@Donald-my3oo]

Indiana Fever shouldbring in players who will be Caitlin's bodyguards

[@Thato3626]

They need to show some L O V E ....

[@missourimomofthree]

I keep watching for excitement with other teams. Of course, it is difficult to find those games. but the immaturity of WBNA players….a giant turn off.

[@debbiecantrell6480]

They are so mad they broke their record. No record can’t be broken but for some reason they don’t understand that. Of course when the wbna started players set a record but then they decided that record should never be broken EVER. It’s crazy

[@billsharich7466]

Granted there were players before Caitlin that opened the door. But has any created such a buzz for the W as Caitlin?

[@tommyleefunderburg7766]

To survive as an iconic athlete it is good to be humble but that's not going to make you an iconic athlete if you want to be an iconic athlete then you have to be one of the best of the best and you have to continue to be one of the best of the best it's not just about being humble that's what makes people like her so much is that she is humble but being a great player and continuing to be a great player player is what's going to make you be considered one of the greatest of all time is when you are one of the greatest of all time it's just common sense humbleness will only get you so far humbleness without greatness is not worth anything as far as being an iconic athlete there are very many humble athletes in the NBA that nobody has ever heard of

[@DarrylPelletier-qk1wu]

You know I agree with your comment but if they locked up all Dirty Players then they would not have WNBA League because they are all jealous, and dirty plus Racist Biggets also, it's not Caitlin Clark's fault for her Talent.

[@paparazziphotography6712]

Her talent is the truth, and it speaks for itself. some have that special gene & talent, some blossom in time,and others who may have to work harder to blossom, and here's my point, no matter the level of ones talent ,it steel must be worked on, and with that said, some bloom early and they just have that IT, but what what carries that special talent is the inner hunger to continue,and keep working and asking that all important question how can I get better, and also speak with those who have scaled to continue to progress and pushing as they grow and mature. Every now and then youll come across that special one, no matter what they've achieved it isn't enough to just settle for that: Michael Jordan, Bill Russell, Stepf Curry, Mike Jordan Dr. "J", and now Caitlin Clark. Real talent doesn't have a color! Larry Bird himself which quite a few people aren't aware of, and he stated this himself, that in his upbringing he played with mostly older Black players due to the proximity of where he grew up, He himself stated that most of this skill level came about when playing with the older black players that was in his neighborhood. So when it came to the NBA it came to him as NO surprize or big deal to him because of the black players that were in and around the neighborhood that he grew up in and he has stated himself that playing with the blacks is where he really appreciated and benefitted from his talents being sharpened and HE himself had not hesitating of speaking of how and where his game was shaped at! Where I was raised it was ALL about your ability to show your gaME, BASEBALL, BASKETBALL,FOOTBALL, TRACK, VOLLEYBALL, AND EVEN SOCCER. So what she's a white girl and I have NO problem with saying that! The question can, The girl can BALL! Beginning and end of question! So if she can, she's a winner and shes on my squad. Like the late great owner of the Oakland now L.A. Raiders Al Davis ALWAYS said, "just win baby". Good enough for Al Davis its good enough for ME and Caitlin Clark! Mr. Hop....

[@davidbrand1668]

Solid advice from LeBron

[@cornellthornton7726]

Caitlyn, keep up the good work. Stay fantastic like you already are. Don't let these Jealous stupid idiots bother you keep going. You're doing great. If anybody ever says the thing to you just say to them 62, then they'll shut up. Hopefully, unless they're really stupid.

The only reason I even know about women basketball and this is just in the past 2 months or so I find this to be so interesting why is this girl you know what I think that she honestly should be considered as a Globetrotter I believe that this girl is that good and you know this I saw whatever the hell her name is why I don't even know their names man the only one that matters is Caitlin and her teammates the support her especially Lexi I think they both should go to the European league and stay there just to spite the NWA for deliberately allowing this to happen to an incredible rookie one who does the work one who really is into this game is set up for the fame so to hell with this thing

Way toooo long winded

[@tommyleefunderburg7766]

I just don't see Aaliyah Boston being as great as everybody makes her out to be I think there's just about and Aaliyah Boston on every single team in the league there are bigger taller better players playing her position and she's slow getting down the court which actually slows down Caitlin Clark's type of basketball Hull and Kelsey Mitchell helped her game much more than Boston does despite her size Boston moves around pretty quickly but she doesn't get up and down the court she doesn't get back for defense like a Slimmer player would do

[@Honest_cheater]

You said they unanimously got rookie of the year… and in the same breath say how many has voted again them both. You make no sense! Goofy

[@tommyleefunderburg7766]

If she would work on her defense then she would be the total package because she gets cooked on a regular basis on defense and you can't be the greatest if your defense isn't as good as your offense that's what made men like Michael Jordan the greatest and men like LeBron James not the greatest because the Braun doesn't play defense he rests on defense but you never saw Michael Jordan or Scottie Pippen or those great great players Like Larry Bird Isaiah Thomas Magic Johnson you never saw them rest on defense they played defense just as hard as they played offense and that's where her game needs to improve

[@troybody6662]

Sorry, but America is going broke, and they are promoting Caitlin because she is White. Check out SportsPro who is a media company which is asking the Western world (Europe and America). America is 63% White with 10x the wealth as Black people who are only 13%. It is no longer done on merit who would be A'ja Wilson. A'ja Wiilson has a college championship. She has TWO WNBA titles. She has an Olympic championship. Caitlin was asked to attend the Olympic tryouts, but she (CHOSED) to stay in the Final Four and lost. So, maybe next year. But this year A'ja out did her in every stat, but free throws and assists. However, they are going by White people's paychecks during a time when people are complaining about the price of gas and eggs.

[@kenneth9874]

Lol, making excuses as usual 🤣

How about getting off the dole and putting in the work?

Yeah, Shaq calling her the truth on Reese's podcast only because she's white... Despite the fact he's been backing Reese throughout her college career.. gtfoh 🤡

[@tommyleefunderburg7766]

Caitlin is not unparalleled and I was started watching WNBA to see what she would do in the WNBA but what I saw was she is not unparalleled because she doesn't play good defense and there are women that shoot the ball just as well as she does if if there weren't women that shot the ball just as well as she does she would have been the highest score in the league and she's not she wasn't even close to being the highest scorer in the league if Caitlin Clark's desire and repetition repetition repetition to always get better if she had the great athletic ability some of these other women were born with it's just like a horse you cannot make a great I'm talking about like the greatest a trainer cannot make that horse the greatest that horse has to be born with certain attributes athletic ability which Caitlyn does not have a lot of she's fast vertical jump is minimal she doesn't play good defense a cutting horse has to have certain attributes like awesome athletic ability a huge stop the desire to Crave working a cow just like the desire for Caitlin to play the game which she has the huge heart and the big motor Caitlin Clark certainly has that also the only place Caitlin Clark is lacking that these other girls have over her is some of them or just much better athletes and she has made up for that by her living in the gym her awesome ball-handling skills her awesome passing and her great shooting from the outside the only thing she lacks is something she can really not give herself and that is something that a great horse has to be born with it's something that a great athlete is born with and that is great athletic ability she does not have the quickness she makes up for that with her great ball-handling skills on offense but on defense she does not have that great quickness and a lot of it is because it's like nobody ever taught her how to play defense she plays it from a stand-up position when you watch Kelsey Mitchell Bend her knees and get close to the ground where her butt is nearly on the ground and the quickness that comes out of that and then her vertical jump that's great athletic ability and there are about 30 women in the league that also have that they don't have Caitlin skills but sometimes athletic ability makes up for the Lesser skills example is Michael Jordan when he went into the league two variables with his left hand and he was either going to switch to his ride or pass or shoot the ball he wasn't a good ball handler with his left hand I see that a lot in the WNBA but in his first off-season he worked on nothing but his left hand his ball-handling skills he only dribble the ball with his left hand he never used his right and then just one season he could shoot the ball left-handed or he could shoot it right-handed or he could handle the ball he became a real baller because a real baller has to be able to handle the ball with both hands the same Caitlin Clark has that which makes up for her lack of quickness on offense but it can't make up for her lack of quickness on defense everybody pays attention to offense nowadays defense wins ball games is no different than football defense will win ball games in any sport that is a team sport defense will win ball games and that's what she needs to be working on in the off-season is working with Kelsey Mitchell just watching tapes of Kelsey Mitchell playing defense and she's only 5 ft 8 and watching how low she gets to the ground you've got a teammate that could improve your defense if you would just watch her she's not going to improve your jumping ability that is something people have tried to do for years and years and years but the truth is it's just natural ability you were born with it does not matter how much you desire to be fast you are either fast or you're not and it was that way since you were a little kid I've seen kids work 10 times harder to be fast than kids that were just naturally fast and they never get there there's certain things you can improve in a team sport that you can't improve in a sport like track and she could improve her defense they were the second worst defensive team in the league a lot of that is coaching a lot of that is not playing good defense
