"You can't take rookies to the Olympics. When have you ever seen that?"... I don't know... basically every single Olympics? What the hell is he talking about?
Exactly he loves to say Luka Donic isn't a superstar an he turns it over an Skip suddenly cares bout turnovers yet he the bum day after day we would hear Westbrook all day everyday he was most talked bout player other than LeBron an embarrassing to give Westbrook MVP for averaging triple double when teammates literally helping him secure rebounds an he was worst 3 pt shooter every year an theres reason teams play 5 guys on 4 cuz russ near 3pt line is always going be there which means u can't win when your leader who controls game can't shoot. Caitlin Clark had to deal with 30× what Reese has had to deal with an not to mention has better team Cordosa an Mabrey an gets put backs cuz they double Cordosa near rim so I'd hope she can rebound. Without Clark they lose 50% of offense an shes always hunted constantly cuz she treated like Michael Jordan except she has gotten very few calls in WNBA an it's obvious it's a racial thing with liberals lik Skip Shannon an Keyshawn. Like they used praise Obama on here an loved when Biden got elected why not mention Trump. Lil wayne can maybe try an speak some sense into this show.he supports some1 who speaks truth not lies Obama was fake as hell an now it's led to throwing ppl in jail yet dems can trade stock an dump stock cuz they get insider info like Nancy Pelosi an they push lies that end up proven lies an no1 is punished go woke u go broke
The United States did it with Taurasi in 2004, Candace Parker in 2008 and Stewart in 2016. And in the year before the WNBA launched, Rebecca Lobo was included on the 1996 Olympic team after graduating from UConn in 1995. 😮
@@shawnrigsby6534you're obviously basketball ignorant, she leads rookies in all but one category, and isn't that far behind in that one as well! Bye Felicia!
Unfortunately Paul forgot or should’ve told Keyshawn there were rookies on Olympic team previously. Taurasi, Stewart, Lobo and Parker. Also they schedule the Olympic tryouts during Final Four week. Which wasn’t done before!
Paul pierce is actually fair Skip complains about turnovers yet he praised Westbrook forever til 4 years ago when he said MVP for russ as 6 seed yet he kills Clark who is a rookie an first 20 games they didn't practice cuz they played 4 more games than any team an now since they got to practice look how good fever have looked an Clark is the entire offensive but doesn't ball hog where Mitchell can't get her buckets but rest of team needs Clark to set them u p for easy shots once she starts getting 20 every not she going be top 3 player n W an yet u got Skip an Key saying Angel is rookie of year yet 1st 8 games had no Cardosa so she got Lotta REBs an now that Cardosa is doubled it's easy to get offensive REB. Clark has just 18 less REB yet Caitlin has to be offense whereas Angel gets set up by their best player an can't shoot outside 8 feet. Clark making 3s opens floor up to give teammates easy layups an open 3s. To argue it's close for rookie of year is ridiculous is Caitlin worst shooter n W like Russ was n NBA yet Skip loved him forever now he acts lik he always hated Westbrook. Like Caitlyn had to jump right into worst team n WNBA an played 4 more games than any team an hardest schedule an once she got to practice with team has looked like much better team whereas Angel on better team isn't even better than Fever which is awful. How bout Angel do something with a stacked roster like Cordosa she should score more than she does with Cardosa an Mabrey give me a break bums on this show hating on Clark that's a fact. Just like keyshawn doesn't think Luka Donic is a superstar lmao but loves Anthony Edward's who choked against Mavs. Luka carried decent team to finals an ran into Celtics with by far most loaded roster.
Exactly it's same with Luka Donic he won't say he's a superstar even though he's taken average teams to conf finals an nba finals an won titles an MVPs overseas an should have 1 MVP considering no1 has ever scored 35 9 an 9 an 5 seed an doesn't win MVP but Jokic wins it with 26 12 an 9 that's pathetic. So in my opinion if Jokic is top 3 seed he must get MVP next 2 or 3 years unless some1 averages 40 10 an 10
I wouldn't mind Clark being on the team but everybody's argument has to do with everything but basketball. Since when has the Olympics been struggling for ratings and promotion?
Are you kidding? You know how many people didn’t know how many (if any) women’s basketball gold medals we had? Couldn’t name one player? I see people in comments from Denmark and the Philippines that know and cheer for CC.
Best passer in the W. We all know why Clark was left off the Olympic team, the South Carolina coach (USA Olympic coach) is still mad that she lost to Caitlin 2-years ago.
The coach is South Carolina coach wow that's pathetic if I'm Caitlin I'd never play for Olympics unless issued apology maybe she should tell WNBA to make players pay her for why they got private planes now an why ppl watch WNBA now it's cuz she passes like LeBron an scored lik steph curry an no1 in WNBA looks like her. No doubt she's reason for 35% of all fans if not more that's a fact. Angel Reese with no Caitlin would be a jo name to eveey1 she should be thanking Caitlin for her gaining followers on social media an popularity. I'd Caitlin retired they lose 40% of fans. To be super petty an crybabies cuz they jealous of a white girl getting attention they not getting. We'll maybe we need rules in place in NBA an NFL so we can make it more fair for white players to make NFL cuz owners are bias against them they make rule changes for hiring black coaches yet considering population whites are lik 60% to 17% blacks so having 4 or 5 black coaches sounds normal. No1 complains including me for NFL or NBA being mostly black cuz we don't think like a racist oh my ain't enough black coaches 1 year well I watch both leagues an don't bother me having few white guys but good god if a white girl isn't super liberal an doesn't wanna live on social media an is reason WNBA is soaring oh it must be the white privilege bull crap most people would never judge on race but ppl like skip an keyshawn it's all bout race. If it was black girl I'd be all in too.
@@kc718201 Wrong, Paul has been right about the BB all along. He has honest perspectives. Key is blowing smoke, making things up, and a hater of any team that beats his team. He is a Caitlyn hater and should listen and learn from Paul.
You might want to check this but Caitlin leads the WNBA in Assists and point generated (scoring and assists combined ) 175 assists and just under 800 points generated. Her points generated represent just at 43% of the Fevers total points.
KJ and Skip don't want to hear facts. Skip said CC isn't the ROTY because her 3 point shooting percentage is sub par lol and KJ is fixated on turnovers.
Skip brings up turnovers an shooting % but was all in on Westbrook for years an supported 6 seed Russ getting MVP even though worst shooter in NBA unless Caitlin is worst shooter in W an shooting 27% from 3 an turns it over I'd understand that. Angel got Mabrey an Cordosa who always gets doubled round basket so I'd hope as a REBOUNDER she can get easy off rebounds. An she needs help scoring Caitlin has ball lik Luka Donic an when she makes 3s it opens up easy layups an shes already best ever passer I've seen an she looks lik Stephen curry at Davidson n college an Caitlin got more pressure than any1 I've seen so giving her 4 more games than other teams 1st 20 games with hard schedule is why they started 2-8 an since then she an team looks much better yet still is better than Chicago sky with much more talent not to mention they got Carter who gives u instant offense I think Caitlin on that team they be top 4 team no doubt in WNBA.
Whose best point guard in WNBA no doubt Caitlin so it's all cuz of hating her an being petty when they should throw her 3 or 4% of their pay for growing game an responsible for them getting private flights an the eye balls cuz no show would talk about WNBA. If it was a black girl getting left off an she was doing what Caitlyn has done despite hardest schedule an most games on worst team in W every1 would say it's racism why she didn't make the Olympics. Same thing with News networks they allowed to mess with elections an use DOJ to find crimes with no victims against Trump yet Joe Biden is too old to face trial an we have his own words an checks an actual facts proven that Joe is racist an lies every time he speaks yet if Trump wins it's end of life an democracy but Trump didn't jail Hilary or democrats even t though crimes were committed cuz he wants to unite not divide. But Yet news media lies clips multiple clips together to make JAn 6 seem like Trump was behind it yet he had 6 ppl publicly say he ordered 10 000 national guard to Whitehouse an speaker of house must make decision an Nancy Pelosi refused his request on Jan 3rd days b4 but yet news media won't tell these facts which is why JAn 6 was treated like worse than pearl harbor yet who cares bout Antifa BLM burning cities costing many ppl to lose life an kamala Harris raising money to get ppl bailed out if Trump bailed out ppl from Jan 6 he would prolly be doing life in prison these ppl are evil an want to ruin this country an sports
Skip just said that CC's game against the Liberty was one where they basically won in spite of her... the same game in which she became the first WNBA rookie to post a triple-double and accounted for over half the team's points... this man is absolutely terrible with basketball takes.
Omg!!! Skip said that “the fever won in spite of Caitlin” playing against the mercury and the liberty. Against the mercury Caitlin was responsible for 44 of the 86 points. Cc basically had a triple double in both games!
Caitlin not scoring in the second half has very little to do with Caitlin’s aggressiveness,, and more to do with coach sides taking the ball out of her hands, not running plays to give Caitlin an opportunity!
These idiots obviously aren't watching the games It is serious issues on that team From players to besties Players dating players on other teams Its insane
CC is in her first year, has set undeniable records for a rookie, dealt with a coach that benches the first string half way through a game, and fails to start the whole first string at the last game, and CC still turns 29 points and brings the team back from a 20+ point deficit,. She's not the team leader, she's not the coach, yet she is still doing the job of a seasoned veteran with leadership skills way beyond her years, and she is not being given credit for ANY of it, and has been cast as a second to a player who hit her with a flagrant foul for ROTY, unbelievable.
Wow!! And she was a -5 for the game & her team lost ! But people will be celebrating this amazing random stat in a regular season loss for years to come! We are truly witnessing greatness !
@@shawnrigsby6534 the only people saying that are supposed Reese fans. but she doesn't have fans she just has black loyalists aka a cult.. who feel like it would be going against their blackness to admit Clark is just that much better lol Same motherfukers that are saying it's the kaitlin klark klan.. constant projection and racism with no facts and it's just getting old to watch an entire group of people become so fragile
@@shawnrigsby6534 The previous game they won against #1 team in league and she had a first ever triple dub but you have a SHORT memory eh? Yup, that's what I thought. Selective forgetfulness. Haters gonna hate while AR and CC keep rising to the top.
@@shawnrigsby6534There are just some people who are predisposed to diss generational talent as their biases causes their eyes and ears to deny reality. Unfortunately, you are one of those people. 🙄
Paul is right, historically women’s basketball was not getting the attention they deserve. Now, if NBC has a decision to broadcast gymnastics vs basketball, they will play gymnastics. It’s about viewership and money when growing the game!
CC + AR should've been on the USA team. But to be honest they need a break they both been playing since college. All the new viewership is coming from CC first and then Angel. Their growing the game in a massive way and this was an opportunity to grow it more. Good thing is their still young and they will be there in 2028 with bigger brands ready to go to the next level.
Rebecca Lobo was on the legendary womens '96 olympic team and she was fresh out of Uconn. Reese and Clark should be on that team. Can't wait for the all start game though when they play against the olympic players on the 20th LOL That is going to be messy ha ha ha
Smfg kind of shocked that 2 points wasn't brought up by any of them. That angel reese shit 14 double double was rigged as hell last night lol😂😂 n 2nd, if the fever just beat #1 team in liberty a few days ago, why the hell did christie sides feel the need to do a line up change against one of the worse team, the same team that you already beaten twice lol. The coach is getting that bag to self sabotage n will be fired at the end of the season 😂
Skip fails to mention that Clark basically runs the entire offense of this team! She plays the entire game, EVERY MINUTE... she brings the ball up Court, and she's working on the defensive end... steals, blocks, boards. Where is she supposed to get extra energy to take a bunch of shots???
I can unders5and a rookie never having a triple double but the double double record was 13. I think that double double record in a testament to how bad the skill level in the WNBA is
The fact that people think Angel Reese is good is crazy. She can't even dribble up the court without double dribbling and carrying. She misses more than 50% of her layups under the basket. She just big and has hustle.
@quisshmoov6313 Angel Reese is someone I'd want on my team because of her hustle and defense but I get lost when people try and compare her to CC as far as skill and drawing crowds.
@@RushBig0786 Yes, she's an elite role player that fans of a team love, but to talk her up like she has superstar skills is insane at this point. The agenda is wild with her lmao. The credibility of the "basketball" analysts talking her up like she's a superstar are in the gutter. The one's doing it are the people who look in pain when they have to acknowledge Caitlin lmao. So it's just due to haterism. Guess they should start talking up NBA post players point/rebound double-doubles now. Everyone deserves participation awards now right? This is the dumbest conversation I've ever seen, all because a white girl is a generational point guard with a fan base lol.
Paul "The Truth" Pierce is spot on. This petty, jealously-driven decision by the five ladies on the Team USA selection committee will become known as one of the most bone-headed, stupid moves in all of sports history.
It is amazing how little Keshawn n Skip know about the WNBA. Glad Paul is here. How in the world does Keshawn not know CC is with Nike. It is only the most lucrative contract in WNBA history.You can also tell he does not watch the games at all.
Keyshawn she leads the entire league in points generated. And yes there have been plenty of rookies on previous Olympic teams. Taurasi being one of them.
If Caitlin was on the US team, she would be the best point guard, passer, and playmaker on the team. CC is already leading the league in assists!!! CC is also leading the league in combined points per game = scoring + assists !
Actually Clark does have a fan base over seas. She was a 3x junior olmypic gold winner. But He is right, its simple, you bring the popular players along, while the fans waiting for the players to get in, they stay to watch the whole game and get to know the other players. In my life I have never see a womans olympic basketball jersey.
Skip obviously didn't notice that mitchell and sides screw cc over by not getting cc the ball early enough...dribble dribble for 3 minutes and then pass the ball to cc to barely give her a chance for a good look?? Mitchell waved off cc when she asked for the ball towards end of 4th quarter...Mitchell wanted to close and not let cc get the chance to do it and show her clutch gene...she closed with many walk off shots in college...sides didnt want to answer conference questions...politics
No doubt Caitlin Clark belongs on the USA Olympic Team like rookies DT (2004), C,Parker (2008) & B.Stewart (2016) before her. Caitlin leads the WNBA in points generated & earned the only rookie TrDb in history while breaking the prior rookie record (3) in PTS/AST DbDb (5) in 6 games including 4 in a row. CC (2nd now) will almost certainly lead the WNBA in AST while breaking the all-time record in AST (316) & APG (8.1), Caitlin will also almost certainly achieve the 1st ever 16+PTS, 8+AST and 6+REB season in WNBA history. We may have the greatest passer (CC) & rebounder (AR) of all-time in the same rookie class.
I second that emotion paul, you're on point brother, but they can't see it, look at the coach, fire the dam coach ,yesterday already dam, Caitlin is the goat😅
PP is absolutely right about CC-hate and getting snubbed in the Olympic team. Stop being apologists for the CC haters. Let me ask the two CC haters in the show- if someone insists on leaving out Juju and Paige off the 2028 Olympic team, are you gonna be apologist for those people too?
What is Keyshawn saying? DT was chosen as a rookie. Breanna was chosen as a rookie. She shd have been chosen her first, then those who missed would just be like all those who missed, none the wiser. They dropped the ball to politics
Did any of these guys point out how Reese kept her double double streak scoring in the last :few seconds , bush league play ,up by 7 , and she is going to the hole as the other team is letting the clock run out . Skip how stupid are you,you point out her lack of scoring against the Mercury and Liberty in the 2nd half ,great players know what needs to be done helping her team win ,she needed to dish the ball and run the offense ,she did that ,double digit assists .
The Fever got a Darvin Ham type coach. Absolutely head scratching decisions. She waived Caitlin off the final shot to tie the game and gave it to Mitchell who was 0-8. Constantly bad coaching.
Crazy how people think Paul is right when he's clearly wrong. Popularity doesn't matter in this context, it's not a factor. That being said this was the best game Clark has played and she showed what she could be.
