Exactly. Angel is one of the biggest cheerleaders of her team. Her teammates always speak highly of her. She also takes accountabilities in losses all the time. I’m telling you a lot of people don’t actually watch her
If they played the whole clip. She was asked specifically about her, then right after she brought up her team and winning and such. Lol. They not going to let her be great.
Right...I was confused as well like he was just saying anything and Amdrea was just letting him. Angel talks more about who came before her and her team more than Caitlin does. That comment was disappointing from him.
Holly asked Angel a personal question and she answered. She then proceeded to give her team their flowers and has been doing so all for a while now. In the last game when she set the double double record and was told about it, she said she was just happy to win and was happy for the team. To make a session of this pod just of one sentence without looking at the whole is quiet weird to me though. Anyway, what do I know.
Clark has never missed more layups in a game than she had assists 😂 nobody cares to double team Reese and she doesn’t ever have any big number of assists where her teammate can drop the ball.
@@ransom6892Clark's doesn't get double and triple team, like Reese. In yesterday game, Caitlin never was held outta bounds from the opposing team bcuz they were scare of her to get back on the court.
@StoriesbyDAF sides made her passive in the 4th learning experience next time she's gonna be different gotta go thru stuff to learn that's on everybody
@@jasonj7755 Really well said...this was a very important lesson to learn for them -- good for you, being a rational adult on the RU-vids comments section!!
I don't know what she was worried about, if she makes it she's the hero, if she misses, the media will just cover it up by saying it was a tough shot but a least she was brave enough to take it. It's easy to see what's going on here.
Reese have always given credit to her teammates but in this instance, she was asked how she managed to rally her teammates enough to win and she said the same thing her teammates have said about her, they all confirm they rub off her energy and that was what she said
I see this guy is a hater towards Angel.he sounds foolish. She always average a double double, so what is this 🤡 talking about turnovers. She is not caitlin! Caitlin didn't do anything in the 4th quarter bcuz she always krack under pressure defense. If Angel never waved in caitlin face caitlin wouldn't be as popular as she is. Angel was the super star in the NCAA and not caitlin. Caitlin was the star in Iowa. Caitlin was waving her hand at the opposing team and never was recognized until Angel did it to her. This 🤡 dislike Angel so much that he never did his homework on Angel but he is on a platform running his mouth.😂
BS. Cailtin doesn't crack under defense. She wasn't given a play in the 4th quarter. Her teammates don't pass her the ball. Angel was not a superstar in college. Only LSU fans and blacks liked her. Popularity among blacks doesn't make someone a superstar.
@anthonypuccetti8779 if you had wisdom, you would be dangerous. Caitlin is a professional deadbeat under pressure defense when she plays against a good team that plays defense. For example, in college, Raven Jackson shut her down. Wnba she average 12, 11, 10, 7, and she holds a record of 3 points as a so-called super star. Angel broke records in college, so do your H/work before you start air hustling
They asked Angel about the team, and she addressed it... Then she was asked specifically, pertaining to how she stayed focused and didn't put her head down being the leader and she said "Im a dawg". Yall need to show the entire clip.
I'm trying to understand what he wants from Angel. Elle asked, "What would he want her to say and he literally had no legit response, lol. Then he made up some ridiculous scenarios that had never happened. He's exactly who Elle is talking about when she said, "People just won't understand Reese." He sounded completely ridiculous, and it's obvious between this and previous conversations that he doesn't like Reese.
I experienced 2nd hand embarrassment watching Angel snatch that one rebound away from the girl with the weird hair when the ball fall right in weird hair girl's face. I mean, come on lady. You're not playing patty cake.
To be honest I think it's Sides, I really think she has told CC she doesn't have free rein to take 20 shots a game and to look for a pass more than shoot. If you remember Sides said she had bad habits from college that she need to fix...just my opinion.
Disappointed you guys are trying to paint a picture of Angel , she was asked a question. They both great basketball players with different back grounds. Stop for a second without getting to deep. Different people, why can’t we enjoy the games. It’s ok if Clark lose and vice versa. I know the picture your trying to paint
Connecticut was the home of Roger Ludlow, who, in the 1640's, accused 49 people (including men) of being witches. Eleven of whom were hung. One of them was Goodwife Knapp, went to the gallows kicking and yelling, who was from Fairfield, where I grew up. There's a parking lot now where she was hung.
Everybody now wants to conveniently forget the FOUR straight missed Free Throws by the Sky and the blatant Travel on the Made 3 pointer by Boston. So it should have never even come down to CC trying to shot over Kamilla Cardoso.
No one is even thinking about that. Caitlin's teammates didn't catch a few of her passes and failed to get shots from her passes. Angel traveled to get a lay up.
Gary, you talking out your neck! Reese has had 1 bad game out of 15. They lost 2 games recently where Marina couldn't make her free throws at the end of the game, that wasn't Reese's fault. The question is exactly what do you expect her to do or say after the 1 bad game she had? Reese hasn't had a moment where she was shy or hiding after a bad performance, albeit a single one so far. Just tell us you "fan-boying" for Caitlin Clark and leave it at that. They both face and deal with so much outside of basketball, and yes Reese brings some of the heat on herself. The comment she made after the last game was just her letting the world know she's built different. Reese been in the W getting fouled and roughed up and hasn't cried like CC. She's much more of a team leader for her team than Clark as well. There's so many clips of her uplifting her teammates and being the voice of support, especially since Williams went out. Conversely, there's clips where CC is seen making faces because she didn't get the ball, even when her teammates score. CC is purposefully going out to compile stats, she's feeling the pressure of trying to be great. I think if you dissect their season so far, they were losing early on because CC wanted to compile stats more than win. They started playing through Boston and the team started flourishing. Everybody plays better when they play through Boston but CC wants the ball in her hands all game and its too much work on the offense to set all them screens just to get CC open.
I wouldn't say they're giving her flowers they don't even know what they're talking about😂 Caitlin is the one getting the turnovers but they're trying to give that attributes to Angel😮
Doubly impressed by what CC manages to do considering she has the worst coach in the league and teammates that can't catch perfect passes or make wide open shots
She doesn’t need to take the shot all the time! Like she said she had 13 assist and she gave it up to Boston who arguably might be the best player on the team.
Calling Aliyah's shot a bad shot is wild considering she just hit the 3 their last possession and she regularly hits from that spot. I'd expect more thorough analysis from Elle but idk, maybe it's producers. Indiana ran a great play but Chicago also guarded it well. The whole game was great but Chicago did what they had to do as a TEAM. Playing just a snippet of her statement is actually out of pocket, she legit responded to a question from Holly! smh She talked about her team in the interview if you played the whole clip.
Stop for just a second and think, on this same Sunday that this Indiana-Chicago game was played at Wintrust Arena on ESPN, the programming that followed it just one hour after it ended was just down the road at Wrigley Field and as is usually the case on the ESPN Sunday night major league games the notoriously annoying Mr. "Marlins Man" sat himself behind the umpire near home plate in his now phased out orange-style Marlins visor cap and uniform top to bring attention to himself as always, yet he seemed to have no clue about doing the very same thing at the WNBA game just down the road, he could have gotten himself any courtside ticket he wanted near either of the two team benches he would have wanted to and made it an ESPN doubleheader, lol????? I thought his whole act is to draw attention to himself with his bright orange colored attire, but it must have never seemed to occur to him how big the TV ratings for that Indiana-Chicago game were going to be, lol?????
I'm sorry but it is utter BS that Caitlin has to take the last shot. Why? Boston is a co-star of the team and if anything Caitlin is a budding star. There is a difference between a scorer and their mentality and a playmaker and their mentality. Guys like LeBron and to a degree Kevin Garnett, and certainly pure PGs, get the ball into the person who has the best shot. Period. It's not I have to take the shot. This utter BS came about with some Kobe or MJ mentality but those guys are shooters and scorers. Caitlin is a playmaker and forcing up a shot over a 6'7" defender and another defender while in motion vs. a more open Boston is never the better shot. And even MJ has instances where he passed for the last shot to a Bill Wennington or Steve Kerr. Now, if you want to say that Caitlin has to assert herself more in the 4Q, that's a fair criticism.
Angel Reese shines bright in her authenticity, breaking free from molds and embracing her true self with confidence. What's the problem with that? Let's celebrate her uniqueness, diversity and individualit. Being different is GOOD. In a world full of contrasts, it's empowering to see how one person can resonate with another despite perceived differences. Suburbia may have its own expectations, but the beauty lies in accepting and understanding each other beyond labels. Here's to celebrating both Angel fans and Caitlin fans for who they are - united in their support for these incredible individuals! Thus the WNBA. Their rivalry is a good thing they dominated Sunday! Not even a WNBA finals has made this much noise for decades.
@@anthonypuccetti8779 yeah she played fine but to blow a wide open shot like that was rough. I think CC made the right play, coach wants to play this way then fine don’t throw her under the bus after the game is over
A little disappointed in Elle, in this one. Angel Reese haters should NOT have been brought up in this episode. Just by doing that, it allowed Gary to take a shot at Angel, saying that she wants it "both ways" by the media. That's not true. The Angel Reese haters were obviously mad that she beat Caitlin. Ignore them and focus on the basketball. Angel having a great game, and leading her team to victory in the clutch.
More turnovers than points? He is mixing her up with CC. CC is on record for more turnovers than any other player in history of the WNBA. How’d this dude get this gig and doesn’t even know the player stats?
These Beta dudes that happens to be non-Black only shows why Black women are the best. Strong, confident,fearless,TALENTED and so forth. Thats what bothers these Beta the most.
Dude a champion is a champion whether win or lose. Angel is a winner. She got a NCAA championship not Caitlin. That’s no snap on Caitlin either. Not sure what the heck you’re trying to say. They both are dogs and they both are winners. They don’t have to be how people want them to be.
Oh and by the way there is no rivalry unless you count the ones the media made up both players even said so, stop trying to make something that isn't there.
She is a rookie and learning lol She never has had more turnovers then points or rebounds lol what is bul talking bout Angel is a dog good game or bad Gene but she is learning and getting better every game
Her comments are often edited…she is constantly talking about teamwork and performing for her team…she was sulking after scoring 20 points beca they lost…THIS DUDE IS A FREAKING HATER AND A LIAR…AR has showed up for the Sky in EVERY GAME even the loses…8 double doubles dude…
Nope, one banging in 1 footers the other draining LOGO threes and leading with assist. This is just a media made rivalry. Bird and Magic were a rivalry because they both handled the ball. There has never been another real rivalry in basketball or just Faux rivalries.
The first game, Chicago beat themselves lol. The second game, Indiana just did everything right. Yesterday, both teams played their hearts out. 8/30 will be for the books.
Listen to the man on the show tell us how a woman is suppose to act is cringe. These sports stars are not your kids, nieces or nephews. Since when do we care about what the media says
I prefer a real basketball game. If i want to see someone just shoot 3 pointers i can go to avhigh school game. Competition makes a game, i dont care if someone can shoot from the logo.
Rivalry? Nope....you have a center and a guard. One is only good for short shots and rebounds. The other one swishes from 30 feet and dishes out assists like Santa Claus.
"They don't like that confidence..." NO!!! That's not it at all Elle, & I've got to believe you know that. What folks don't like is what they objectively shouldn't like...her (AR's) selfishness. It's always me me me with AR, & we we we with CC. That's just facts.
Stop lying!! In every interview from college until now Reese has always gave her teammates praise. Go listen to kamilia presser yesterday talk about Reese. Yall really trying to push a false narrative that’s slowly being debunked
This is a lie. Did you see how she defended Hailey van lith this past season? How’s it that all her teammates have the upmost respect and support for her but she’s this terrible person? Everyone that REALLY knows her can’t be lying. A few people? That’s a maybe. But EVERYONE? Cmon man lol 😂
12:12 waymin…when has Reese had more turnovers than points or rebounds?…I gotta see this. And she puts the same load on her back in a loss…her primary response is “I try to give myself some grace” she even said it in this interview…because she feels the burden of everything that goes wrong…heavy is the head that wears the crown…and she’s very loudly put the crowd on…so she’s very loud about carrying the burden…and let’s be real…she increases her game from game to came at the highest rate out of any player in the WNBA…she’s very obviously putting outrageous hours into team practice as well as into personal training….i don’t like this response at all…it seems like you just truly prefer the suppressed woman and because of that…you assume that she’s taking credit in every response…but in reality…there’s only 2 post games this entire season that she’s directly took substantial credit…and the reality is…both times were absolutely warranted.
Get your facts right Duncan….. AR had ONE assist not five. AR was a beast and was outstanding but assists she didn’t have. AR is SLOWLY improving her media time but she’s a serious turn off to 50% of the viewers. People don’t look up to “dawgs” people look up to players that ball out on court and carry themselves with grace and being respectable to and by all. That’s why the majority of kids are wearing 22 jerseys and not #5 jerseys. CC is total package. AR needs to be an actual adult not a TikTok star. CC & AR absolutely are the two best rookies in the league and I wish they were on the same team because they compliment each other on the court.
There is no rivalry. Clark is not competing against Reese if Reese feels that she needs to push this narrative to gain recognition. So be it . Clark is playing to win. Her own coach holds to 16 pts a game so she isnt breaking anymore records than she has . If Sides let Clark play PG the way she lets Wheeler play it, instead being ranked next to Tarusi she would be fighting with Wilson for highest scorer.
I think what my guy was trying to say, which is also how I feel, is that if you’re gonna call yourself a dog and say that’s what you’re about, that’s fine. You should own your moments but… You can’t make statements like that and beat your chest if when you lose you go on and on about special whistles, and how the refs lost you the game. That’s a big part of why people would rather see humility because if you’re not gonna show that humility when you lose, people don’t wanna see you beat your chest when you win.
Also she’s been humble but she’s also confident. You can be BOTH. CC also does her gestures when she hits a big three shot, that doesn’t make her not humble, she’s just confident in herself as a shooter
@@Tiarawatches I don't think you read my comment thoroughly because that is not in the slightest what I'm saying. I'm saying if you compare the last two times the Sky played the Fever, when they lost Angel in the post-game somberly talked about people getting a special whistle and the refs doing a bad job. So when they win and she beats her chest, some people won't like it as much. She definitely deserved to, she definitely has that dog in her, and she's a beast on the court. I never once mentioned gestures, or that she shouldn't be confident and I never once mentioned CC.
@@mattparks8434 if i misunderstood you i apologize and I’m open to further clarification. I guess what I’m saying is that it’s frustrating when people (not necessarily you) try to claim that angel’s actions are “hypocritical” when she’s remained the same win or lose and is shown to be both humble and confident. She’s learning and she constantly emphasizes that she’s working on being better but that doesn’t get clicks. The one off comments out of context do and people don’t follow up and instead just run with the narrative. It’s especially frustrating when large nationwide media does that same. This morning I’ve also seen media speak on the fever and Aliyah Boston and CC disingenuously. While it’s not as bad as what angel reese gets it’s still frustrating. These ladies are all balling in their first year. Their personalities are different and they play different positions. Give them grace and watch the magic happen
@@Tiarawatches No worries, there's a lot of noise in the W rhetoric right now. I just wanted people to watch and enjoy good basketball. I've started blocking out all of the media on it cause it's just stupid and unhealthy and disrespectful to all of the players in the W. My only point was that no one likes when players blame losses on the refs so when in the next win you beat your chest, it doesn't feel as good when you can't take a loss with humility. I like Angel Reese a lot and I like her dog attitude. I think as the season goes on, the dumb and narrative pushing media will continue dying down and the true basketball fans will remain. It's too exhausting to keep up for the whole season. Appreciate the cordial discourse my friend. Here's to the talented women in the W and good basketball like we saw last night!
Yet folks elected President a self absorbed bragger. That was not that long ago. And he's back. America has embraced bragger types since it's inception. However, Angel is not what you are projecting her to be.
Gray just talks out the side of his mouth. He didn’t know the United Center was booked for a concert ?? He clearly doesn’t watch Sky games or know Angels stats. I’m tired of these “analyst” who don’t watch the W 🫤
We clearly need All Women covering Women's Basketball.....to me the guys wind up sounding like they are on something else and basically scratching the chalkboard because no matter how hard you try, you can't out-Woman a Woman. 🫅🏿✨❤️🏀🙌🏾
This guy doesn’t know anything 🥲. I feel so bad for Angel. If he actually watched her games and full press conferences, he would never be spewing this bs. Misogynoir! look it up AH!
This is why Angel talked about the media twisting her words. Yall did not watch the entirety of that postgame interview because after Angel said she was a dawg she literally used the rest of that interview to praise her teammates and make it about the team. I SWEAR I HATE THE MEDIA!!!
when has CC and her turnover are 90% on her teammates just not catching her passes. Is it their skill lvl or something else. I'm not sure yet. I'm 100% sure that people are jealous of CC> even people who have never watch basketball game in their lives not less a WNBA game!
@@desotohybrid2175 right you ever watched the game? or any basketball game? I have an 11 cosin that could catch those passes. There is a reason the Fever and Sky is the worst teams in the WNBA and it's not CC
I agree with you. He doesn't like Angel Reese, and I am like, who is he? I won't be watching this again, and I really like Elle, but I will just have to support her on other platforms because I can't with this nobody!!!
Regarding Angel saying that she's a dawg, I think that context needs to be explained better. Holly asked her what enables her to come back from such a deficit and come out with a win, to which Angel said that she's always aiming to win and that she's a dawg, implying that she will fight til the end to win. You guy's conversation (especially Gary) made it seem as of she walks around saying that she's a dawg all of the time and that she's always the reason for her team's success. That's an unfair implication, and could create more false narrative. In every single interview, even yesterday's post-conference, Angel calls out her team members by name and mentions their success and how they contributed to the win.
Right, but you already know how the media is depicting Angel. She's aggressive, all about herself and a hater. She fights hard and supports her team no matter what
Yeah I was fully confused by his take. She never once said she’s the the only dawg in the league. Or even on her team she literally just said she’s plays hard til the end. He spat literal nonsense even making up her having more turnovers than points… like sir what? Lol
The guy cohost clearly isn’t paying attention and is running with narratives that a certain crowd with ulterior motives has been pushing on the internet. Angel has always taken accountability for her bad games and was critical of herself for missing the few shots she missed yesterday during the postgame press conference.
@@Sportsguy0258 You’re right. “Bad” is a bit harsh. I was referring to the first few games where her fg % was low but even in those, she still managed to produce and contribute in other areas.
This guy must be a sit in cause what is he talking about more turnovers than points.. Waste of time watching any further. He gets his talking points from twitter comments..
I'm 13 minutes in and I feel like no one has researched angel outside of this game and the press for this game. first of all angel is confident but she is very much for her team. she will uplift them at any given opportunity and even when she got her first double double talked about how she wasn't satisfied because they didn't win and how personal victories are less important than team victories. second of all, angel is wonderful with the media, win or lose. her saying she got that dawg in her doesn't go away when she loses. it doesn't mean she always wins, it means she's always scraping and fighting for the wins (and she IS she's getting double doubles on those losses y'all) every time the sky lose she talks about what her and the team need to do better and what they are working on and its not just one person. like all the post game press conferences are public and available and while only 13 minutes in, it is at this point I feel like neither person in this video has watched more than MAX two (2) sky games and two (2) press conferences
My question is Was she not that same dawg in the games they lost? Because you can’t get 8 double doubles in a row if you’re not still a dawg even in a losing effort.
Caitlin made the right play passing to a wide open Boston who just missed the shot. Caitlin was being double teamed by Cardosa who is 6’7. You don’t jack up a contested prayer over a double team when you have Rookie of the Year A. Boston wide open for a game winner. Even Jordan passed to Steve Kerr for game winners.
Take race out of the equation or color out of the equation then you have two great players.The world is dealing with lots of issues without adding unnecessary agendas and racism.The two players are strictly competition and thats it. Hopefully all the haters catch up because CC is not signing up for that madness!
When Victor Wembanyama said that he has no relationship with Chet Holmgren and said that he has extra motivation every time he plays against him, people thought it was cute. When Angel Reese shows that she too has this kind of competitiveness and authenticity, she is criticized. It's her personality. And it's great. Plus, she works too much. This girl will surprise a lot of people. It's not over.
@@ransom6892 But who walked away with a ring? You guys are funny, when Clark loses its her coach and teammates fault, if she wins its all her. Delusional 🤣
@@ghsense2626 Did she have that ring in her pocket when Clark retired her from college basketball? Is it stained from tears? Teammates are how Angel gained her biggest accomplishment, a team championship, while Clark’s biggest was getting an award for her own accomplishments. Player of the Year, twice, back to back
