[@SaturnFrost]

Las Vegas is # 1, NYC is a very close # 2. Both were considered Super teams last year. Aja Wilson (Vegas) and Breanna Stewart (NYC) ,in my opinion, are the Best 2 players in the league right now. Both high scorer's, can shoot, can drive it to the hoop, and are defensive monsters.

[@tinoramos-jd9us]

I'm not gonna lie. I have never watched a WNBA game before. I was curious about Clarke but Breanna Stewart was a beast. I was originally skeptical of the Indiana coach because of all the internet controversy but Clark was effective in the offense. You can see where Indiana needs time to gel. Boston had a rough game.

[@chhansen9813]

CLARK, NOT CLARKE

[@casilatino]

Boston needs to finish stronger at the rim. Can she jump more than 2 inches? She plays small and needs to just go up into all those hands hooded over head and get fouled.

[@eman1549]

Boston has no lift at all. Clark is tired and needs time. The coach is horrible

[@mongoslade277]

​@@eman1549Why are people blaming the coach after 2 games?? Just curious. New York is the 2nd best team in the league. Indiana had the 1st pick so they're clearly the worst

[@randumo24]

@@mongoslade277 People are blaming the coach because the defense is glued to Clark way behind the 3 point line, and even doubles behind it at times when she has the ball, yet whatever offense they have in place doesn't take advantage of it. There's a reason why defenses are not able to play that tight on top tier 3 point shooters in the NBA. Even lower tier coaches should know how to take advantage of a defense that is spacing itself out badly and putting itself way out of position when they move to double outside the 3 point line. It's simple stuff that's not being done.

[@chhansen9813]

Damn are all of the teams full of giants except Indiana? Indiana's defense is horrendous!

Stevie Wonder, Ray Charles and the 5 blind boys could see that Caitlin Clark was not WNBA ready. The 2 most dominating drifees went to The Chicago Sky. And as it's panning out to be, Caitlin is not and should not have been the #1 overall pick. This is turning out to be crazy.

[@williambowers8042]

Look like Clark was playing against 9 players... her teammates sure weren't playing with her.

[@mariofan2867]

This is a large learning curve for Clark. Taurasi was telling the truth about this. A lot of people were thinking it would be a walk in the park for Clark because of all the attention she brought to women’s basketball, but nope, there’s a lot more learning to do. This is however the beginning of something very special and I have no doubt Clark will learn to adapt to the competitive nature of the WNBA.

[@ХорхеГарсия-э5е]

Yeah, being in a team so bad that makes the one she was in college look like an All-Star in comparison, despite having likely just one player making it to the WNBA in the entire time she was there, probably has nothing to do with it. She is literally being guarded one on one the whole game with the default pick and roll defense being doubling her, yet the rest of her teammates can't take advantage of it and the coach two games into the season is just letting her getting tangled on that.

[@loverofhumanity]

@2216sammy worst team with an awful coach. Clark plays well when it's a free uptempo style offense that allows her to shoot threes in transition. This is more of a crappy half court offense with no movement. There's no chemistry and ball movement. It's genuinely hard to watch. Clark as well needs to do way more off ball movement. More screens should be set for her. There's always just one screen being set. Iowa would often have 2-3 screens and clark was moving a lot off the ball. Her eyes were always up to pass ahead in transition. Aliyah boston isn't a good transition big. She's more of a slow paced half court big which right now doesn't mesh well with the way clark likes to play. Also, clark doesnt have the speed or athleticism yet which is a big problem.

[@NelsonJ1]

[@silewis9396]

@2216sammy Happens to a lot of #1 picks

[@yvette39]

EXACTLY! People were accusing Taurasi of jealousy but she was giving veteran advice and she of all people should know. WNBA are seasoned and can ball, unlike college players who are developing their game and finding their strengths and weaknesses. Clark will be just fine once she adjust and learn the difference.

Scouting report on Clark. When going left she’s looking to shoot trying create space with the step back or use a top side high pick. When going right she’s looking to drive or pass. No midrange game. Do not leave open shots a high percentage when left open. Has range. Liability on defense cannot defend pick and roll or pick and pop. Excellent free throw shooter. Prone to turnovers if played physical or picked up full court. Struggles with quick guard or big guard who can move there feet. After the 1st 2 game the league is ready for her. I think she’ll do fine by mid season.

[@ATC43]

Her lacking a mid range game is why I've always felt Paige is a more "ready" WNBA scorer. Paige has a bigger bag and better ability to create shots off the dribble than her which is super important when youre facing great defenders every night. Her only problem will be her size and strength. I'm sure Clark will adjust, but it will be rough and she will shoot a VERY poor percentage if she doesnt improve her ability to create shots off the dribble.

[@FabrizioPati-i6f]

@@ATC43 Bueckers played power forward this year, and did pretty well, so I wouldn't worry too much. In her freshman year she was called to the national team for the 3x3 world championship, along with 3 pros; she knew how to hold the field well and the 3x3 is tough

@@ATC43 i agree. Paiges style translates so much better to the wnba than clarks one dimensional AND also predictable style. She's simply far far too predictable. It's important for players to have a variety of ways to score and not just spam moves. When you play the best in the world, it just wont work. I genuinely think unless she can develop a mid range game and ability to shoot while going right, she will have a mediocre career. She's also such a bad defender and doesn't have the physicality to compete in the wnba. That's going to be a problem unless her offense can be so good that it doesn't make it a liability.

@@ALLCITY73 Not necessarily, in fact it's pretty unlikely. Even with an expansion team, there's still a lottery in basketball. I think the last time in the WNBA there was expansion, teams were assigned either the 4th or 6th pick,- I can't remember offhand now, but expansion teams usually aren't granted the first overall pick in the NBA or WNBA. There's still debate as to how it'll be done this time; there definitely will be a limited expansion draft for the Valkyries, and then, based on the CBA rules and just, how it's happened in the past, they're probably gonna get the first draft pick, that comes outside, the lottery, which in this case, the WNBA has four teams that miss the playoffs, so they'll probably get assigned the 5th pick. I say probably 'cause there's a slight chance still that they might add another team next year...- I think it's most likely they'll add Toronto in 2026, but Portland might pay the expansion fee in time....- I think Cathy Engelbert has mentioned this is a possibility, but....- This is a little unclear and I think it's too unlikely, but, if that's the case,- well, there's a couple ways this could happen. Honestly, if I remember correctly, when the Raptors and Grizzlies joined the NBA, they actually had a coin flip to see who got the higher draft pick, but it would still be like, the 5th and 6th picks. Also, the WNBA lottery is slightly unusual 'cause the odds of the bottom four teams are actually cumulative from the previous two seasons, not just the previous seasons' records. This means, despite Indiana being the third worst team last year, they actually had the best odds to get the number one spot, which they won, because their previous year was just particularly bad. Indiana probably won't have it next year,- unless they just fall off a cliff completely; right now, it's probably either Phoenix, it could be Seattle, but I think they'll improve this year, but those two have a better shot right now. But yeah, Golden State, very unlikely to get the number one pick, unless they change the CBA rules completely before the draft, which doesn't seem likely at all, or they trade up to get it, which...- eh, maybe they steal somebody in the expansion draft, but I don't think they'll have the capital to potentially give up somebody like a Paige Beuckers, unless the Fever need more height; I could see them trading down for somebody like Ayoka Lee, put her in at center, move Boston to forward-, eh that still seems a little risky, especially since they can also use a true PG and move Clark to SG. Depends how the draft falls.

She's bigger and likely stronger than most other SGs in College so she can get her shot of easier, but now everyone guarding her is just as quick and bigger/stronger too. She will struggle to get separation. And for someone like her who isnt the most effecient shooter(lets be real yall she's a streaky shooter with crazy range) the adjustment will be tough.

what both you said is kinda evident watching the game. they kinda made a run in the third, so the Fever has some game, but when they came back to start the 4th, all the ground they made up was gone pretty quickly. you could just see that NY was better, and finished plays better.

35-10 in the 4th quarter is BRUTAL. Clark actually looked a lot better than her first game. Once her shot starts falling, everyone will remember who she is.
