Angel Reese flops, outclassed by Caitlin Clark in WNBA opener

[travestyny]

I posted a link here... other than that you can search for player ratings match reports etc in your own time

Your link here doesn't use the word "outclassed."

So now that we know you lied about that, do you have something real to share?

it says she was dominated... dominated, outclassed, embarrased, they all convey the same message

Doesn't say she dominated her personally. Just sensational headlines by people more interested in drama than actual nuances of basketball that you guys are willing to cling to, but again, Clark already told you it's unnecessary. She doesn't see things the way you see them. Let it go.

Did you watch the game? She was rubbish...

Her offense is trash. I don't need to watch the game to know that. Again, if anyone involved with her team is expecting her to lead the team in scoring, they are recognizing how badly the team is put together. She will improve, but for now she should only have to do what she is great at. That being mostly rebounding. They need to pair her with the right personnel. Get her a baby jump hook, improve her free throw percentage, and try to put Cordoso in a package for a much more polished offensive player.

I also agree the "flagrant foul" was soft. Clark made a play for the ball to me and at the same time prevented giving the lay-up with a little shove in the back. I didn't see much there. But the refs saw that there was windup and she shoved her in the back so I guess they want to send a message to keep things clean. I just thought it was a little extra on it to prevent her from getting the shot, but not that big of a deal to me.

That's not the argument. You obviously can compare their value to the team. But saying she was outclassed makes no sense as she could have been doing fine at what her particular job is for her team. She gave them 17 rebounds. Yes she should have hit more of her shots, but if they are relying on her to provide the points, it's going to be a very difficult road ahead and I'm sure they know that.

Did Aja Wilson outclass Clark in their head to head basketball games last season? One game, Aja had 28points 9rebs 13-22 from the field. Clark had 13pts 11 assts 6rebs 4-12 from the field.
Why would you call that Clark being outclassed? She's not in there guarding Aja. She also contributed to her team with really good assists, much like Reese contributed to her team with 17 rebounds. They just both had off shooting nights. And Reese especially should not be expected to set the world on fire with scoring.

You don't prove anything in one game. But I've already stated that I believe Clark will be the best passer ever so I don't know why you are writing to me about it.

Yes there were times last year where Wilson obviously added more value to her team than Clark did to hers. Not sure what will happen this year.
Reese needs to bring the ball back out when she gets a rebounds and restart the shot clock. She needs to watch a lot of Rodman film. Too many of her offensive rebounds are wasted.

That being said, I'll be happy when the New York Liberty smashes the league again! Let's Go Liberty!

Is it true that straight people are comming out of the closet in the WNBA?

Or trans people set to dominate the league?

If #2 happens my money is on the Golden State squad to thrive due to an unfair graphic advantage.

It was definitely a flagrant foul by Clark, but also Reese definitely fell on purpose to be overly dramatic like always lol. Whoever started that “ Angel Reese looks like a baby giraffe” joke really hit the nail on the head lmao. This rivalry is the best thing to ever happen to the WNBA

[GhostofDempsey]

Clark only fouled Resse immediately after Reese fouled her teammate by shoving her from the back with both arms while going for the rebound. Funny how the usual suspect immediately spun this into a racial thread. Every single thread he posts on, regardless of topic.

Man that is hitting the nail on the head. It must be pretty boring for race to be someone's main interest. And it makes them boring too.
