Side note, hope Becky gets a shot at a nba team at one point. Next year when Charlotte or someone rebuilds again

I truly want to like the wnba but I saw basic fundamentals lacking in my brief viewing.

Was it here that the debate about high school men's team winning over the best wnba team?

No one can convince me the women would win now.

I would definitely block the **** out of Angel Reese! Assuming I'm in my athletic prime..theres no way you're gonna get that swooping **** past me or anyone decent.

And she's in the conversation for ROY?

Most dominant player I've seen since Shaq.

Yeah, whatever team wins the 5A championship in Indiana Men's HSBB would wafflestomp the Fever to the point they stop the game.

A lot of it genuinely seems to be no desire to put the players in positions to succeed. As any HS player the first rule about getting a off. rebound inside, and they'll tell you "Don't bring the ball down". Yet you watch the IND/PHX game today and a bunch of ORebs got taken away by defenders because the players got them...then just looked confused about what to do.

7 game win-streak on the line

Dream +1-108

Chicago stinks

angel Reese! 19 rebounds tonight. leads the league in rebounds. last time a rookie lead the league in rebounds was like 15 years ago.

11th straight double double

WNBA single season rebounding record is 11.88

angel Reese currently averaging 11.8

board woman gets paid or chairwoman of the bored?

A'ja (pronounced 'Asia') Wilson is incredible

Chi Barbie





Don't Call Her 'Bayou Barbie,' Angel Reese Has Chosen A New Chicago Sky Nickname. The new WNBA player says her new moniker is Chi Barbie.

Yeah I have immense respect for her game.

Like the spiced tea?

pretty easily the best player in the world

That would be Chai

Las Vegas is better than they were last year.

The playoffs should be more difficult with Minnesota and Seattle emerging as final 4 teams. LV got to steamroll Dallas in the semi-finals last year

Luv the women's game and have for a long time. Clark is a double-edged sword of raising interest big time and being a prima donna big time.

Lakers hired JJ. Green Bay hired Doug Gottlieb. Fever should do the right thing and hire the Youtube coach.

They should pretty clearly hire the Iowa woman.

angel Reese playing in Seattle tonight, trying to extend her record breaking double double streak, and win back to back rookie of the month for June and july

Angel Reese: 27 PTS, 10 REB, 8-13 FG

12th double double in a row

and she sat most of 3rd quarter cuz 4 fouls

She can't be stopped! She won't be stopped!

she's averaging 18 points and 15 rebounds a game, over her last 6 games

Reese has definitely surprised everyone, she'd even slipped as far as 7th in the draft and everyone thought CC would be running away with the rookie of the year award without a doubt


however, CC is still leading in every cat but rebounds basically

https://www.basketball-reference.com...e-records.html

she's also shooting very badly compared to college, obviously, a big part of this has to do with increased workload and higher quality defenders - but it's a fair assumption that she'll both adjust to those over time as well as regress to the mean as it's such a dropoff that we can probably assume she's running badly with variance

55.3% from 2, 85.8% ft and 37.7% from 3 in college compared to
49.4% from 2, 88.5% ft and 33.7% from 3 in wnba

she's going to improve her shooting without a doubt

they've also played 13 of 21 games on the road, including the last 5 in a row - angel has been amazing, but cc probably edge her out if the season ended today and likely prime rookie cc has yet to be unlocked

I'd like to see cc edge angel out.

I haven't watched much cc this season. I have watched a lot of angel Reese. so I don't really have a full picture.

and I could easily concede that cc is having a better season, and is a better player. cc probably is better. she could end up being the greatest ever. she is amazing.

I have seen a lot of prejudice against angel Reese, regardless of whether or not angel should be rookie of the year.

angel is outspoken, trash talking, unapologetically genuine, black... and she gets a lot of unfair hate for all that.

her coaches and teammates love her. she wins everywhere she goes. she lifts up others.

seems like players all over the WNBA love her. I see vets from opposing teams regularly offering her encouragement and support on the court, advice even.

she gets a lot of hate that isn't about her basketball play. and it's unfair hate to boot.
