Angel Reese Appreciation Thread

[AFM22]

Caitlin Clark is officially the only player in WNBA history to record multiple games with over 20 points and 10 assists. She has shattered expectations by reaching an all-time record of 12 games hitting those marks, and she accomplished this incredible milestone in just 57 career games

And also leads the league in turnovers and sits lower in the standings than Angel Reese and the Dream.

 

[AFM22]

Because it is pretty crazy for a forward to lead the league in turn overs??

Natasha Howard is a forward and is tied for most turnovers in the league with Clark (20 in 4 games).

 

[AFM22]

Not until she dumps Connor for a black chick.

She probably should come out of the closet at some point. Maybe it will help her get her 3 ball back.

 

[GesterHawk]

Now do average.

 

[Torbee]

Not until she dumps Connor for a black chick.

Not gonna lie, that would be epic drama. Make it so!

 

[GesterHawk]

Not gonna lie, that would be epic drama. Make it so!

It couldn't happen to a better former Hawk than Connor.

 

[AFM22]

Now do average.

5.3 vs 5.0.

You're going off a 3 and 4 game sample size.

 

[GesterHawk]

Also, I'll toss in $50 to see it.

That is how averages work.

 

[AFM22]

It also speculates that that's what Reese will continue to do, which is unlikely.

You are right, it probably is a record pace for a forward. It would be hard to keep it up all season. But Angel is no quitter.

Lil' fella knows the window is closing as CC is getting her mojo back, whilst Angel keeps dribbling the ball off her leg and bricking layups. Let him have May.

 

[PalmettoTiger1]

The thing is, if she would be willing to be coached the sky is the limit.

Sadly I think she might be great

She is a total crap show

I hope for the sake of the WNBA that Clark gets her mojo back. Would hate to see Angel get another championship before her.

Getting off of Chicago was smart for Angel - that is a craptacular franchise.

True!

 

[Yellowsnow51]

And also leads the league in turnovers and sits lower in the standings than Angel Reese and the Dream.

And is a thousand times better than Angel Reese.

 

[AFM22]

And is a thousand times better than Angel Reese.

How can you quantify that?

 

[Torbee]

How can you quantify that?

By multiplying by 1000.

Are you dum or sumthin?

 

[AFM22]

You think if Clark went 1v1000 against 1000 Reeses she would win?

CC needs to get away from Stephanie White

 

[AFM22]

CC needs to get away from Stephanie White

Are we going to say this about every coach that Clark has?

 

[Torbee]

[AFM22]

that's crazy. we're going to need a big court to find out.

 

[GesterHawk]

It's 3 games.

She has a long road ahead of her to continue to lead the league, but I have faith she will be up to the challenge.

 

[Torbee]

Why?

 

[AFM22]

I doubt she has an 8 turnover game again this season. I bet she regresses back to her average of around 3 by the all star break.

 

[GesterHawk]

Why?

Because the sh_tty coach pulled her to keep her healthy in a blow out as opposed to letting her rack up stats.

 

[AFM22]

Why?

I think White is a good coach taking the blame for CC and KMs poor early shooting. And unless she's signing off on roster moves, she's not the one that didn't go out a proper backup for Boston.

If Clark/KM even shoot 40% they could be 4-0 right now and no one would give one shid about SW.

 

[95Hawk]

Why?

Biggest criticism is that white is not building an offensive flow that fully embraces CC’s abilities. White - up until this year - has prioritized veteran players and limiting CC’s creativity. I see a little more looseness with CC’s play so far this year but there’s been a butting of heads since CC arrived

 

[GesterHawk]

You should have more faith in her.

Unless you are banking on them cutting her minutes, which you might be right about.

 

[Hydro2.0]

So Reese, who handles the ball quite a bit does not get a pass, but the other 2 forwards in top 5 for turnovers get a pass?

Please answer my question first before asking more questions.

She got that team to massively overachieve last season given injuries etc.

I'm gonna go ahead and give her the benefit of a doubt.

Seems like a good coach to me.

Part of that is Kelsey Mitchell and being tied to her.

Kelsey has never met a ball she would pass.

75% of the time KM gets the ball she holds on to it too long and has to put up a shot when she could have easily passed it off for a better look.
And she hardly ever passes it back to CC22 when she does give it up.

KM averaging 1.5 assists per game is crazy.
