The WNBA Has a Caitlin Clark Problem

What do you think about Caitlin Clark and the Indiana Fever so far? PLEASE LIKE AND SUBSCRIBE!

[@Calidastas]

Not making the Olympic team was the best thing for her. She’s hell bent on embarrassing the haters and she is.

[@LiteralTitle-sg6kj]

Here are some thoughts from a european that isn't even all that interested in Basketball or the NBA to begin with let alone WNBA. But i find the current situation in WNBA VERY entertaining! It's somewhat of an underdog story that we all love. Veteran players try to hold CC down, on court and off while she remains calm, collected and just delivers on court with incredible skill, humility, persistence. Basically with all the traits EVERYONE wishes they had, me included.

[@CharlieBrown-qd8vc]

The Caitlin we knew in college has arrived to the WNBA. Lucky us! It's gonna be a fun ride! 😛

[@CourtsideChase]

She definitely has

[@MikeTheD]

Very fun. The games are fun to watch. CC or Mitchell have ended up going ballistic every game since the break, and sometimes both.

[@dilabakri]

I don’t know why this video isn’t getting the view it deserves. Awesome facts and great analysis. Keep it up!

[@CourtsideChase]

Thank you I really appreciate that! It had less than 100 views yesterday so I'm just glad it's up from that lol

[@ralphpal]

She took a non playoff team to the playoffs

[@blushihtzu]

That chart 1:42 is crazy

[@BigBisk]

I was trying to squint to see Caitlin’s name just to see she’s in another universe from the rest 😂of

Fantastic summary Courtside Chase!

Thank you!

Great video!

Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed it

[@Dragonboi-pm2yc]

Nice video caitlyn Clark fan here from Philippines

[@danielmead970]

See how they are when everything's on the line? 😂😂 That is when Caitlin is at her best. After the Olympic break she saw the rest of the schedule as the playoffs. It's amazing to watch. They say....She cant do this and she cant do that! That is all the motivation she needs. And with her building chemistry with her teammates. There are going to be dangerous! It's been alot of fun to watch!

[@mikelogan3816]

What kind of sport Awards the MVP award Before the season is over

[@kptyler5]

I live in Indianapolis and i can’t wait for her to be the head of a parade!!!! She’s going to do great Things in silence with a smile and collect all this hate so when she takes over the league in the next 1-2 years!!!! This is going to be a great thing to see the next 15 years #TeamCC22

[@CourtsideChase]

There will definitely be a few parades coming soon. I couldnt imagine what it's like right now actually being in Indy. The hype is insane and this really is just the beginning!

[@abel6846]

Funny thing is, because they didn’t bring CC with them to Paris, she was able to go on holiday and rest up a bit. So they motivated her by snubbing her and got her rested. And they’ll pay the price!

[@markmagee2599]

Could not have a better problem than Caitlin Clack

[@BrandonYusufToropov]

Great piece! Thank you

[@CourtsideChase]

Of course! Thank you for watching, I'm glad you liked it!

[@figll20]

This is what the players of the W are starting to realize and fear. That this is the worst version of the Caitlin Clark they are going to get.

[@thewatchmen4920]

For many years other wmba teams beated FEVER. Never saw the FEVER as a threat. Thought of playing them as scrimmage games. Now 🕯️💣🎇🎆🌋 it seems like the wnba league is 🤯😠😡😤🤬. The temperature is 🌡️🌋. Its seems like the FEVER is a threat. And to all you 😠😡😤🤬 haters congratulations the FEVER and their fans are coming to your TOWN

[@davidd5712]

Think of this Clark after her 1st two years in college she molded Iowa into a team that went back to back in the finals. That was with dog shit players, none of whom were McDonalds top 100 players Now she molding Indy with good players like Boston, Mitchell, Hull and others. And she's only been with them for a few months and she has them moving up in the standings, beating the teams ahead of them This should have WNBA Teams scared. oh, and if you're going to mention turn overs at least be smart enough to qualify that statement. You'd be better to mention her assist to turn over ratio which is 1.53:1 which puts her in the top half of the best 20 guards in the WNBA. For example the best guard on the olympic team Copper has a ratio on 0.9:1

[@bwalker77]

In a sense, Clark joined the Fever at the perfect time. She was always going to be picked first, i.e. by a bad team, but the Fever already had a few pieces she can pass to. Being drafted at the beginning of their trouble would have made things much harder.

[@CourtsideChase]

I completely agree with that. Having Lexie, Aliyah, Kelsey and Nalyssa has made things so much easier. Over half the team was drafted in the last couple years alone. Now she gets the benefit of playing with multiple really good young players. It really was the perfect situation. They get to start their own dynasty together

[@philbrule8952]

I'd give the mvp to cc.

[@seventhson27]

IF $$$ for the WNBA == MVP then C**2 is MVP in a runaway.

[@mikegeld1280]

Caitlyn Clarke = FIRE

[@94520shatto]

This is comparing Caitlin Clark, professional basketball player for the Indiana Fever of the Women's National Basketball Association to many women she competes with. Then I realized that I described my kind of woman. ***** NO lip gloss, NO triple-layer eyelashes, NO hair extensions, NO additions to the uniform, NO makeup, NO jewelry, NO LOOK AT ME! How can CC-22 outshine us just playing basketball? And smiling?

[@majorzot3851]

She’s not a problem; definitely more like a blessing.

[@felixarcangel2558]

CAITLIN IS WONDER IN WNBA GOAT NO OTHER THAN HER

[@JackLee-bp2jx]

No body in this world compare MJ vs Dennis Rodman. Therefore, please do not compare Caitlin Clark vs “Me Too” .. 🤦🏻

[@russty5692]

From last place to playoff contention.... Only difference is #22! Hands down, ROY!

[@johndub3866]

You mentioned CC's high rate of turnovers. From what I've seen that's down to her teammates having butter hands a lot of the time.

[@jonathonpalbicke6122]

If the Fever are not gonna lose, she can throw the ball away all she wants. 🤣🤣🤣 ☑️👌😎 JP

[@audrasforest]

MVP

[@josephjackson7269]

WNBA needs to unite for benefit of all players in league . Caitlin goes out of her way to at least try by sticking to basketball. The women in league who are obviously jealous need to lose that so women can be respected about being sincere concerning the women’s movement. At the moment it’s shameful how they are acting and a real setback for their cause !

[@GIBBO4182]

1:03 3 4ths…otherwise known as 3 quarters! 😂😂

[@CourtsideChase]

Same thing

[@GIBBO4182]

@@CourtsideChase I know, but no one says 1 4th or 2 4ths do they? You just say a quarter or a half…3 4ths just hits the ear wrong

[@CourtsideChase]

Lol I always say 4ths, halves, thirds. 3 quarters definitely sounds better but I didn't even think about it when saying it

[@guimbanian25]

There is no question Aja Wilson is the best player in the game except when going against Cardodoso. But Valuable? Lets put value in the word valuable. What is Wilson’s value to the Aces? What is Wilson’s value to the WNBA? What is Wilson’s value to overall attendances and TV viewerships? What is Wilson’s value to her community? Like I said Best Player in the league but MVP no way.

[@CourtsideChase]

Mvp doesn't mean mvp anymore and hasn't for awhile, It always goes to the best player in the league

[@jonathonpalbicke6122]

What happens if CC plays off the charts, and the Fever beat LV twice? And… the Fever pass them in the standings??? AW still wins no question, I have zero issue with that, but CC will make it more difficult, just sayin’. ☑️👌😎🤣 JP

[@marcleblanc6293]

So MVP is a points award? Not really about who has been the most valuable to their team and overall to the league? So why call it MVP? Why not M.P.P. most points player?

[@CourtsideChase]

Aja is having the best scoring season in wnba history and is by far the best defender too. Caitlins time will come

[@cupiddstunt]

At 1.15 you claim "wilson is obviously going to win it". Really?? FACT. Currently Wilson while surrounded by stars is upping her stats from last season but her team is going backwards so where is her value????????? How does that make her first choice for MVP? Currently her team is going backwards so she is of NO VALUE except to herself. I understand that ego and dumb statements go hand in hand in America, well not just hand in hand but actively cheered and revered in some quarters. You just need to look no further than Trump to see the lunatics are running the asylum. But to place Wilson who can do nothing to stop her team collecting loses. Above a rookie that has lifted a team “locked in the basement” for the last 7 seasons, up to a team no one really wants to face. A rookie that has been victim of 17.5% of the whole of the leagues flagrant fouls, and they still can't stop her, a rookie that is setting records so often it is almost becoming boring, Ohhh really ok what record has she smashed this time. And you have Wilson as MVP???????????

[@franciskeys9810]

I had to stop listening. The downspeak was driving me crazy.

[@lionden8421]

Thank you for not crowning CC as MVP, like everyone else is doing. I love to watch her but there are many other vets, not to mention Kelsey Mitchell, who are racking up points, stats and wins.

[@CourtsideChase]

Yeah Caitlin has been unreal but Aja alone is having one of the greatest seasons ever as well. Possibly the best scoring season in league history and also the best defender in the league. Caitlin's time will come

[@sheldonwaves2381]

Everybody is saying unanimously it’s Aja. What r u talking about. Tbh CC should be MVP. The award doesn’t always have to go to the best player. It’s the most “valuable”key word.

[@lionden8421]

@@sheldonwaves2381 You have a point. I would agree that CC has had the biggest "impact/value" on any team in the W. (Like Brady did wherever he played). Hard to argue with Aja as a player... But it sure looks like CC will get MVP multiple times before she's done.
