  1. What bothers me is this portrayal of the other women as "just being catty" or "they're just jealous of her", as if any human that is in that situation wouldn't feel the exact same way. You guys realize that when Pete Maravich was drafted, his salary as a rookie exceeded the salaries of the rest of his teammates combined, right? He had teammates resent him and refuse to play with him that went to the ABA. This is a natural dynamic at play here and it isn't just women who would feel that way if they were in that situation. You have established players being well out-earned by a rookie and being told they should thank their lucky stars that she came along and that they have the opportunity to play with her. How should they feel.
  2. Still one of the most impressive things you'll ever see on a football field. Fuck getting old......
  3. Actually I don't have to direct my post at anybody. The topic is about Caitlin Clark. My post is about Caitlin Clark. If you have any issues with the things that I posted then how about you can address those points that I made instead of being a big huffy baby about everything. I agree with this. I didn't like it. I was also watching and saw what led to it and so saw it in proper context.
  4. In a league where everyone makes a teachers salary, why are we surprised that people resent the person who has a $20m shoe deal without having played a minute? Why can't we fathom that some of these women are going to come after her to up their own profile and presence so that they can get endorsement deals? I think it's pretty fucking natural. Anyone ignoring that dynamic is just being obtuse.
  5. He is yet again speaking authoritatively about a subject he clearly knows jack shit about. It's fun.
  6. Clark is one of the biggest trash talkers out there lol. You simply aren't paying attention if you don't see that. She is going to have plenty of rivalries. Yall act like poor little Caitlin Clark is just out there trying to play basketball and these big mean girls are just picking on her for no reason. As if she isn't stirring it up and trash talking at them as well. Like they aren't also pros and they should just roll out the red carpet and let her do whatever she wants. As if all the good new players don't have an adjustment period of getting picked on and everyone coming after them. As if that isnt a huge sign of respect because if you werent a great player, they wouldnt waste their effort doing it. Wtf are we even talking about here.
  7. Imagine thinking that rivalries are bad. Imagine complaining that the players don't like each other. Imagine thinking it's better to have it where everyone is best friends all the time like in the NBA.
  8. Wonder what he's saying....
  9. I have to agree. The gameplan for Minnesota should have been to be very physical with Luka. Foul him. Anything to disrupt the rhythm. He was just kinda doing whatever he wanted. Like oh, hmm, I think I'll just go over here and shoot....yep, swish. Haven't scored from there yet....yep, swish. Too easy for sure.
  10. The place is just fantastic. A perfect test for a US Open.
  11. Wouldn't that just be Darwin doing his thang?
  12. So is this what we do for a week? Argue about who had more adversity or which road was harder or how shitty player X played in a previous series? As if that matters one bit?
  13. I wanna say Boston will win this series too but Luka and Kyrie have been too hot. If Boston wins though, it will be due to hot 3 point shooting and the Dallas bigs not being as effective against this matchup. Boston will definitely go small on them to test it.
  14. Interesting change in matchup for sure. Boston is a different team than Minnesota with their 2 elite scorers both being perimeter players, as well as their best 2 role players.
  15. Jeez. Imagine what that thing would cost if they DIDN'T cut all those corners.
  16. So far today the best anyone can muster is -2. Korda may not even be out of it.
  17. Nah. Lancaster CC is fucking amazing. I'm gonna watch this for sure.
  18. For people who don't know what gaslighting is, this is what it looks like.
  19. I am absolutely loving this Lakers dumpster fire. Please, keep letting Linda Rambis have a say.
  20. Yeah you're basically taking all the talent and putting them on NBA teams and around NBA coaches at a younger age. They develop fine, and you can see the parity right now in the NBA. It isn't really possible to consolidate the talent and build a superteam because there's so much. Sucks for the colleges but now that they can pay players maybe more will go that route. I doubt it though because if I was a talented 19 year old basketball player I would want to just be about basketball without the facade of going to school and taking classes.
  21. That's not a foul I'm going with ball don't lie on that one.
  22. Minnesota is just begging to lose this game
