I'm a WNBA newb. I've watched clips of games through the years, but this is the first year I've sat through entire games, mostly because of CC. IF...this turns into a vets vs rookies game, I have a feeling it's gonna get barbarically entertaining - like watching a bunch of old warriors and new gladiators go at it. ⚔
If both teams actually ball out, this will be one for the ages. However, the egos of the older women on the national team might be too fragile for the world to see the younger players ball out if they get to. I don't think DT would run the risk of the yungins showing them up. I'm more excited about Sundays Fever Mercury game. We'll see some real competition there. Home cooking of the refs will be in if all goes to pattern that I've seen so far. A joke.
The old Soviet tank movement versus the new leopard / Abhram tanks moving thru from the rookies. Experience vs Youth eagerness to learn... this is great to see. A handover batons among their position from #1 to #5.... love this. Old guards can leave NOW after HOLDING this League to a LOW level for so LONG..... Thanks for your MEMORY.
@@user-ii7do6gy4e you said nb ever heard about her until clark now you switched it to she was never the best player on any team she’s been on which one is it 🤣🤣🤣.. Reese was definitely the best player on her team at lsu both her junior & senior year check the stats before talkin 😂😂😂😂🤣
This has always happened, without any issues. What the Sports Media is hoping for is some kind of Brawl to break out, drawing the Numbers they dream of. They couldn't care less about who plays, just who is best for "Numbers", Scoundrels that they are
The all star game is not a competive game. it's just a showcase game. they play easy so as not to get hurt. I think CC and AR will have fun playing together.
This will be one of the best sporting events of the year. Both sides want to prove they are most deserving of being the very best. Will the snub of Reece and Clark unleash the monsters that turn the tide. I will definitely be turning in.
I’m feeling the viewership for the WNBA ALL STAR GAME will be between to 4 million to 5 million. More views are added each time the Fever play, as more eyes are being drawn to the spotlight that Caitlin Clark has helped shine the light on the WNBA league. The ALL STAR game will definitely be BOX OFFICE numbers just for the amazing talent that will be showcased in the arena!! Looking forward to it!! Let’s pray that nobody gets hurt in that game. 🙏
Lets be real if i was a veteran of thr wnba a great and work hard but never got the respect deserved i wouldn't be happy about these rookies getting all this hype. Its human nature.
Yes, but being toxic and hateful towards the rookies won't help with anything. It's irrational to hate on someone else just because you didn't get the attention you deserved.
Rookies would rather freeze CC out and lose and celebrate with the bitter vets than beat them and have CC look good 🤣 CC is having a great season despite all the nonsense from other players and teammates and her own coach! I can’t imagine if she actually had support how awesome she would be doing.
I think the rookies are gonna come to prove that this is their league. They have to play hard because everyone will be watching to see if Angel Reese and Caitlin Clark actually got snubbed.
There is one problem with this format…Team USA HAS TO win this game. If they don’t it just reignites all of the talk about Olympic snubs and it puts a dent in the idea of Team USAs invincibility right before the Olympics.
All those rookies won't be there. The fan vote is 50% of the vote. There is no way the media and the players are voting Martin in. That's just be real. There are far more deserving players than Kate who averages 4 points a game. Reese, yes. CC yes. Maybe Cordosa but I doubt it. I agree it will be a much-viewed game. Maybe a little of Reese's dawg can rub off on CC. She seems a bit timid.
Like Ice skating.. The last Champion country ALLOWS to bring their own country 2nd team... That would be AWESOME to see... USA1 vs USA2.... that is going to be crazy with NBC rating and MORE to Women games. Change the rule for USA 2028 Olympic ....... please PUSH this idea forward to Olympic Committee.... Thanks.
They have to play it like a regular game and probably a rookies' win over Vets will be good for the WNBA. they can't afford to let it bomb like the NBA All star
@@nascarjoe7006you think so? I think coaches and vets respect who is skilled and who isn’t. Even Angel refers to CC as “Sniper CC”. I give them more credit than that.
Rachel, i love hearing your podcast but you have to do something about the mic. it is too distracting to watch you hold it. aside from that you are awesome and love your analysis and topics.
I hope that when that WNBA All Star game is played, the players will play as a team and not play to prove that they are better than Caitlin Clark. This is not far to happen considering that fans have eyes only for Caitlin Clark and the jealousy that the players of Caitlin Clark’s popularity. This being played by women such game will be played with jealousy, hate, and insecure attention-getter players except Caitlin Clark.
I agree ,theres no way the Referees will favor the ALL STAR,COZ IF THE THE ALL STAR WIN AGAINST THE USA TEAM,THEY LOOK ßSSSSSTTTT in the Public,it means they SELECT THE WRONG PLAYERS! SO EVERYTHING IS IRON WELL😂😂😂 I DONT KNOW IF ALL STAR can Win vs USA TEAM😂😂😂
you should talk about the womens soccer olympic team it came out today and its basically an entire new team with the best and highest paid womens coach in the world.
Dude, top 10 are on the list to be considered by the coaches and media. That means no guarantees. CC passes to Angel and pops off her nails and eye rakes.
The business man that all this together is laughing all the way to the bank. We have the best players in the world, we could send two teams. The rookies will not beat the vets. The young are maturing. I look at the top three teams in the league. They are fast and most can play any position. Watch how they shift. Big girl can’t hit the three too. Have you watched the Lynx. Pilar was drafted there and would start or come off the bench earlier. She did have twenty point game this year. I have been watching since the beginning, Rebecca Lobo was put in the spot like CC. Also how long did it take the NBA to develop.
They ALL are "Good", and it would be the height of Stupidity to Go All Out for a meaningless game and get a few players Hurt, maybe Badly, and screw up a Season or Career, because of that Meaningless game. Remember that Cameron Brink ended her Season with One Misstep. Nothing Dramatic, just a Foot Placed Wrong. That is why a good many NBA Players take a Pass on the Allstar games
I'm sorry but you is completely gaslighting, cc is the only reason why people is recognizing any other players, the only reason why I'm interested is because of CC, I really don't care about the other players I just want to see CeCe play, and she didn't make it to the Olympic team because it's pure jealousy and hatred, I just wish you women stop worrying about the other woman's feelings and cut to the truth, and the reason why CeCe is so popular with all of the fans, because she is the image that majority of the people want to see, the people that the people that want to spend their money to see, she is the example of a perfect superhero, she's humble, she's respectable, she's totally focused on the game, she's not fake good she's really good, and she don't demand respect, that's why a lot of people love cc, cc effect is real,😊
If I’m not mistaken, any player in the top ten in voting who’s not on the Olympic team will automatically make the all star team, which means that as it stands, Clark and Reese would both make the team. Also, shoutout to Reese for being a marketing genius because this all started when she did those hand gestures to Caitlin after the 2023 championship, lol. She made women’s basketball a national story for the first time, and made it an interesting story with drama and intrigue and mystery and made me want to know what was going to happen next, which got me interested in the players, which is the only reason I’m sitting here watching women’s basketball today.
why are you misleading people. the only one moving the needle is caitin clark. media numbers proove attendance of all games. reese is not moving the attendance.
