Time for a Real Discussion About Caitlin Clark

Interesting pivot.

What pivot? I’ve always said she’s an amazing shooter…. best women’s college basketball shooter I’ve ever seen.

If you’re the best shooter ever…. and you start for 4 years…. there’s a VERY good chance you will be the best scorer ever too.

That has never been a criticism of mine about her. Plenty of other issues I have about her game though.
 
Just turned on the game. Have they really had a Clark stat line shown the entire game? How annoying for anyone watching any game or player. She already has the record, so just confused. No other player gets this in any sport off the top of my head. It’s like nobody has ever seen a great scorer before. LeBron didn’t get this chasing Kareem.

That’s really dumb but at least she’s playing that game. Remember when they would track Trae Young’s stats in NON Oklahoma games? That was unbelievable.

You said everybody outside of Iowa thinks she's a "whiny, overly dramatic, baby." I posted just a few examples of non-Iowans heaping praise on her without saying she's any of those things. You then shifted your focus from them thinking she's a "whiny, overly dramatic, baby" to them not saying she's the best player of all time. Pivot.

It’s somewhat disrespectful to the game. The only comparable thing might be some Tiger coverage in golf. Some events in his heyday did cover him as if he was the only player and it’s probably what a majority of the audience wanted.

LeBron’s durability is absolutely insane, as popular as he is/was his record breaking individual stats are probably under covered compared to other stories. He’s not a top five player anymore but he’s a looooong way from having to retire because he’s not good, if he hangs it up in next 2-3 years without injury it’s just because he’s ready to be done. I love the goat debate in terms of greatest player/winner, but for total career stat production there’s no longer a debate.

ESPN devoted an entire year of its social media presence to Lamelo Ball’s rookie year (hardly anything else) and I’d just pop in and comment how weird it was when Tyrese Haliburton had identical or slightly better stats at same position, age and same rookie season. At least CC is doing anomalous unique stuff.

Obama saying she’s the greatest women’s college basketball scorer of all time says nothing about what he thinks of her all around game OR how she acts and behaves on the court.

Btw…. CC is back at it again today…. constant whining and crying. It’s at a whole different level than anyone else.
