She’s only polarizing because the media and fans wanna argue about her. She’s been pretty chill in regards to all this and has said all the right things.

Every star in the sport of basketball is going to get this same treatment. The issue we are having right now with her is that its the first time its happened with a female player in the WNBA and fans don't know how to approach it. The other players in the league don't know how to approach it. The media doesn't know how to approach it. Lets also understand that when a new star is born, new fans are born and many of those fans have no idea of what they are looking at, the history of the thing they've suddendly become fans of or the history of how its covered or the historical markers of greatness. This happens no matter the sport, athlete or league. This is not new.

The short answer is no not right at the moment. I feel like the majority of people are behind her still and she is more supported then loathed but the Media is doing all they can to make sure half the population hates her guts because that is what they do. When they get finished with her she will be just like LeBron James because the Media just cant let things happen while forcing every narrative. She doesnt strike me as someone that embraces fame like other people in her position. She doesnt say or do hateable things or come across as narcissistic.

Their are people like myself who remember those players from the past and some who still play today .

Reese has a following in the black community
Caitlin doesn't even really say anything lol. She has said the hard fouls are part of the game. She's never gone on any tirades about Reese like Reese does to her. She doesn't talk lol. It's everybody's hate for her and let's be real. A lot of black women resent her for being such a mega star who's white and not gay. Media doesn't want to say it but we all know what it is.

Patrick Mahomes CAN' BE the best player in the NFL because he doesn't play every position in the NFL. An argument for best quarterback can be made, but not bet player. Put Lamar Jackson in Patrick Mahomes place and Mahomes in Jackson's place and the argument would likely swing. A great quarterback is only as great as his supporting players.
"Her numbers are pretty good" 15-5-5 is a good statline with her efficiency and turnovers? How are these RotY stat?

Women’s game isn’t the men’s game. Percentages are lower and turnovers more common. Her numbers are similar to Sabrina Ionescu. She has a couple more turnovers a game but. She’s also a rookie that is blitzed more than any other team (forget player).

@@andrewbak08 I'm not expecting her to put up 30pt triple doubles. I would even say that 15-5-5 could actually be a solid statline if she had great efficiency and the turnovers weren't so high. It isn't the men's game but the competition is relative to her projected skill level.

@@Gymantis her numbers are comparable to the other elite guards in the W and she’s a rookie. My point is you have to view her stats compared to her peers and not Chris Paul in year 10. There’s a reason people are, rightfully, hyped about Reese even though she’s making about a third of her layups. Efficiency is much lower in the W.

@@andrewbak08 We can't compare her to her peers because the expectations were so high. She was called the Michael Jordan of woman's basketball and many said she was good enough to play in the NBA. Even if she was to fall short we both have to admit that 15-5-5 on subpar efficiency and high turnovers just isn't the standard we thought she would set. She had an offer for $5m to play in the Big 3 league.

If Caitlin had a supporting cast of team mates the equivalent of what Michael Jordan had supporting him, then Caitlin would be top in the WNBA. She looks bad, as would any other superstar if similarly situated with the league's last place team mates. Turnovers would not be nearly what they are because good team mates fight to get to passes, good team mates don't stand around and let their point guard get trapped by two or three defenders. Do you ever wonder why LeBron has fought to get a good supporting cast or Michael Jordan played alongside future Hall of Famers and all stars, or why Bird had Mchale, Parrish, Ainge, Ford, Dennis Johnson, etc., or Magic had Jabbar et al.? It os because basketball is a team sport and one superstar can't be a star by him or herslf. Even when at Indiana State, Larry Bird hasd a team mate with a 46 inch vertical who was making a difference. Hell, sometimes Caitlin may as well be playing one-on-team against her opposition.

Nobody wants to watch average bland basketball.We need finesse and style, I tried telling all these small town country boys that hoop, Their game is average and weak, I'm a city street baller and we got finesse and style and we entertain, Not just Run to a corner wait for a pass and open 3, Just like lebron his game has been bland and boring, I'd rather watch steve nash tracy mcgrady stefan marbury shaq kobe, Their game was entertaining
News Alert to THE ODD COUPLE, and Serious Sane Listeners, Instead of being the most Polarizing Athlete In Sports Today, She is easily the most Anointed Hype Athlete, The Media has created. Has she lived up to the Hype? Yes, if you consider she has played a few NationallyTelevised Games with record-breaking attendance. She will probably win the Rookie Of The Year award, because of her Popularity. In the meantime, as far as, not name to the Olympic Team, she will not be missed, considering the USA will be playing for their Seven Straight Gold Medal. Just a Talkie Talk Thought, and Real Opinion that the Olympic Committee should be given props, for not allowing her to add a Gold Medal to her Resume, at the expense of riding the coattails of WNBA Players, who doesn't the recognition she is receiving.

Nothing says triggered than deny the Gold just because. You said the press created Clark ? So the press created 3 big ten tournament in a row, a sweet 16 2 final fours and 2 national championship back to back. Set every scoring record Set assist records POY back to back number 1 draft choice in the Wnba what part of that did the national media create?
