Why would anyone think CC fans are racist ********? JFC..
This is so unbelievably dumb that only a special few posters could have posted it.
CC ranks 7th in the WNBA in FTA per game....and only 3 Gs are ahead of her.
Explain to me how this is racist? What exactly in this wording is racist? Unless you are making an assumption of what that person is feeling inside there is nothing in those words. If you would have said vulgar then I agree. I suppose you think all of the crazy twitter posts attacking CC are just an objective expression of feelings? At some point direct criticism of a person who is black is just not always racist at its core. How many times is it going to take for false accusations to resonate with some of you?
If a death threat is made - then report it to the police.
Realistically, not one guard should be ahead of her. Post players - yes. But it's not like she does not go to the basket as much or more than most of the guards in the league.
No one would call White homophobic. She's a lesbian as well as Thomas.....
Yes. When you factor in the way she is guarded, and the non-calls by these nincompoop officials, she should be the top guard in FTA's.
The fact that others have said that doesn't mean it did or did not happen to Thomas. It COULD be her crutch to cover her butt over all the flack she's getting. Also I'm pretty sure Clark has also been on the receiving end of some of that. Did White also comment then. I'm just asking, because I don't remember that.....
I wasn't referring to White or any specific person. It was a comment based on the issue as a whole. And it is for certain part of the reason this league continues to trip all over itself.
In late May CC and Golden State Valkyries guard Tiffany Hayes got into it on court. After the game, Hayes was on Threads interacting with "fans" that were trashing CC. One "fan" wrote, "Listen. I got some cousins we don’t speak about that will ride at dawn upon request. Just let me know."
Hayes replied, "
that’s real."
The league didn't do a damn thing. And, Hayes endorsed the threat to kill or harm Caitlin!
Now the entire WNBA is genuflecting to AT.
If you can't connect the dots, you don't have a brain.

It could be a crutch, sure. But given how much attention this story has gotten in and out of the sports world I'd bet a large sum of money that AT has gotten vile **** sent to her online over the last week.
Clark gets a lot of hate, hell if you told me she got the most **** sent to her online in the W I'd believe it. She, as far as I know, has chosen not to address any online attacks she's received publicly. If she came out tomorrow and addressed them publicly I'd anticipate and expect White to comment on them as well.
White was going to get asked about AT's comments at some point so she lead off her media availability by making a statement that is fairly benign. She made it clear that there's lines that shouldn't be crossed with what gets sent online, no players in the league should have to deal with it, and that these messages are being sent by people who aren't actual fans of the Fever or the Wnba.
When CC speaks to the media next she'll get asked about the incident with AT and the fallout. if I had to bet her message will sound a lot like Steph's.
Not sure I agree with everything but at least you make valid points and are a respectful poster unlike some of this nonsense.

Tell me who has the ball in her hands more? Sure as f^ck arent 7 players out there who do
You expect that Clark would be voted the 11th best guard by the players, but I'm kind of surprised by the low key spite for Kelsey Plum also being down voted by her peers while putting up the numbers she is on an otherwise terrible roster.
Because race and orientation don't have anything to do with it. He loses all credibility and just sounds like an angry *******... in a world full of angry azzholes.. he feeds the stereotypical image of an Iowa fan.. we don't need to hear it.

She’s not 11 in player vote, she’s 11 in just back court.

Also it should be noted that no one voted Clark as 11 guard overall. All the players got the same ballot as the fans. Pick 6 front court and 4 back court. They just didn’t put Clark in the top 4.
Kelsey Plum is averaging 23.9 points a game, shooting 52% from the field, and 6.4 assists per game. No guard in the W comes close to those numbers, yet her rank is 5 with the media and 12 on the player vote. That tells everything you need to know about the travesty of a sport's league. An absolute joke.
Maybe not that tweets point bc it’s just an angry rambling rant. My point is she could be closer to 5-6th best guard in a lot of players’ minds but they can only choose 4.
I found when filled out the ballot there were a lot of people deserving of a vote but there are only 4 spots and a lot of really good guards
