The Sky traded her for Atlanta's first round picks in 2027 and 2028. Those picks will be worthless. The Sky francise should be investigated.
Addition by subtraction.
If she played a Dennis Rodman role, she would win a championship. I'm just not sure she is willing to do that.
Probably should tell you what her actual value is. I'm sure she is a complete distraction and the juice was not worth the squeeze, as they say.
Other way around. She demanded the trade. Why would Chicago want to get rid of an All Star on a cheap contract?
AR is a legend in her own mind. Atlanta will rue the day they volunteered to baby sit this diva, this prima donna, this overrated wannabe. I don't know anything about the Atlanta team, but the Dream may have just turned into a nightmare. I only watch the farce that is the WNBA to see Caitlin. And if she is treated the same way this season that she has been, I won't even watch her games, and the WNBA can crawl back under the rock where they were before CC arrived. IMHO, of course.
Let’s hope not. Best thing to happen would be for her to fade away into oblivion.
Some players make those around them better - my guess is she brought the entire roster down. If she accepted a Rodman type role she would be a huge asset. Her ego at this time won't allow for that. Rebounders and defensive players who don't score also don't get shoe deals.
What roster? It was her, cardosa, and a van slooten that is a shadow of herself. Chicago is a dumpster fire. She said if they wanted to compete they need more talent (not wrong) and after it all blew up she demanded a trade.
There have been plenty of "All-Star" caliber players who have been dealt/not re-signed because they were a complete pain. She is not a player to have a franchise built around for many reasons.
She’s not someone you build around but everyone won this trade but Chicago. They just traded away the only person selling jerseys for a nickel and bubble gum. Didn’t even get a player back.
HVL was a bad fit there. Losing Alexis Morris hurt them way more than HVL helped. They still went like 31-5 and made it to the elite 8.
She is likely to lead the WNBA in rebounds if she stays healthy while also breaking the rebounds per game record (which she already owns). If rebounds ever become insignificant in the game of basketball then, yes, she will probably fade away.
When I think Angel Reese, "blending" does not come to mind.
They had the best roster in the country and it wasn't even close. Reese had to be ordered to take time off by her coach and went on what, like a 10-day hiatus when she wasn't even with the team? And they didn't even make the title game. There's no other way to describe that season other than as an epic failure for LSU and it was 100% on the crappy team chemistry that happened when Reese had to deal with the fact that there were better players than her that were brought onto the roster.
Ya I'm pretty sure very few people here would stay Fever fans if Clark were to go elsewhere in free agency.
That's exactly the point. She should not have led that team in scoring. She's a diva who didn't want to give up the spotlight to better players and better scorers and as a result had to be benched because of problems it was causing in their locker room. And it's probably the biggest reason one of the best rosters in women's college BB history didn't even make it into the Final Four.
lol what? It was obvious that their season plan was going to go through Reese. If she was such a cancer, why did Mulkey bring her back?
The better question is if she wasn't a cancer why did Mulkey remove her from the team for 4 games?
Reese spoke highly of her relationship with Mulkey and said she appreciated that her coach did not tell the world where she was during her time off.
