WNBA

I've been watching the WNBA. Mostly the Indiana Fever. Caitlan Clark is that good. She's a force out there and she gets some hard fouls directed at her. These ladies aren't afraid to mix it up on the floor. They don't take any guff from anyone. The games are interesting.

I see that ticket sales for the Indiana Fever playing in Chicago against the Sky have dropped down to near nothing because Caitlin Clark won't be playing for the Fever when they visit the city.

So much for all the BS from some of the players that it isn't Clark who is packing stadiums it's them. They aren't getting the attendance except in games against the Fever when they visit, but yet, some of the older women and even some new ones are whining that Clark gets too much attention and it's really all about them.

I think we know who fills stadiums. It would be like players on the Philadelphia Athletics whining that it isn't Babe Ruth coming in to visit that's filling those seats. It's the pathetic team that gets 3,000 attendances instead of the 25,000 when Ruth's in town.

I dont watch, but see clips on News feed. I was kind of interested in Caitlin Clark, but now it's starting to feel pro-wrestling like with all the drama being manufactured.

Well then switch your attention to Paige Bueckers. She has been playing pretty great from the start. Check out the SportsCenter recap of her game last night. She hits hard shots, gets steals, passes the ball well, and enables her teammates to score. Of course there are other great players in the WNBA including Breanna Stewart, Napheesa Collier, etc.

I liked watching Clark in college. She really elevated Iowa with her shooting and passing, but I also think that the fame caused her to press her shots a little too much towards the end. She's figuring her way around the WNBA. I'm pretty sure that I would have failed miserably with all of the attention and scrutiny that she gets at 23yrs old.

I watched Bueckers too. She's a darned good player as well. The two are really changing the face of the WNBA, and I'm not referring to skin color, I'm talking about the finesse they bring to the court. The problem is, officiating has allowed the both of them to be constantly mugged on the court and no fouls called, yet a hand check will bring a foul. It doesn't make sense. They need to improve the consistency in their officiating and stop the petty chippy attitude some players constantly display out there with aggression after a play.

Sounds like a fair critique of the regular NBA as well.
