Her effect on viewership of women’s bball has been amazing. I still don’t watch any of it but Husker women though.
watched a lot of clark at iowa but zero in the wnba. like the nba, i just don't enjoy pro hoops at all. i'm not sure why. maybe they're just too good, thus less exciting. maybe it's the personalities, too much me, too little we.
like baseball, i enjoy the collegiate game (cws for sure) but have zero interest in mlb. have not watch the pros for decades including the world series. have no clue who won last year.
but wbb at the college level is fun. it's closer to the game i grew up loving. a lot better shooting and flow to the games. prefer four quarters to the men's two halves with all the resulting free throw attempts. far less bump and grind in the women's game, prefer t&a - i know, i know. i have ofttimes found myself watching them over men's games.

Haven't ever watched a WNBA game but Dan Patrick was just talking about it. Said she is struggling and not one of the 12 best players so she would just be a bench warmer. No one is tuning in to watch her sit on the bench during the Olympics. Makes sense.
Yeah all these people apparently like watching someone who isn't that good. Just not during the Olympics. How exactly does that make sense?
The truth is, she was playing for Iowa in the tourney when the USA Olympic team was assembling and practicing. She has not had the chance to gel with the other players on the team. She needs to be focused on the transition to professional basketball and be less concerned about the Olympics. It’s a grind. so unless there is another rookie on the USA team, I’d say she’s exactly where she is supposed to be. Their job is to win the medal and if they get some additional exposure that is just gravy.
Well since the X "tweet" went there, my guess is that Clark is more like the image on our left...
Nobody hates seeing women succeed more than other women.
This is a PC excuse. I don't remember people worrying about the men's team having time to gel...
It's salt in the wound for sure. Entitled princess who outplays them and is smarter.
True competitors want to go against the best. I'd love to be the dumbest person at my company.
"Popularity bump"
Only womens' privilege could withstand repeated losses of millions year over year.
And yet, there are still dummies saying women deserve the same pay as the NBA. Ummmm. No.
I really don’t care that the NBA chooses to toss what amounts to pocket change for them down a rabbit hole. It makes no difference.
Clark, in my opinion, is somewhat unlikable at times. She does flop too much and it’s annoying.
Angel Reese, on the other hand, is an EXTREMELY, thoroughly unlikable piece of human debris.
With young “stars” like these, the league will continue to struggle to gain popularity and make money.

Clarks team better hire an enforcer. If Reese takes five knuckles to the mouth, she may wake up. Probably not though.
No way Clark herself wants to straight up brawl either. Its gonna be more of the same and she’ll be injured.

Reese is doing what she needs to do to stay "relevant" if that is even a thing with the WNBA. She knows she has a short amount of time to make money and she is going to be the trashy bitch.
Plays like this happen all the time in Men’s sports and it’s not a big deal.
One cool note - it looks like there is some air-time on the jumps when in slow motion.
