I think we went up really strong a lot of times and we didn’t get a lot of calls and going back at looking at the film I’ve seen a lot of calls that weren’t made I guess some people got a special whistle I bet we all know who got the special whistle as we can all see The Golden Child isn’t far from making the legend LeBron proud with her record-breaking stats in the WNBA she became the fastest player in WNBA history to record 500 plus pts and 200 plus as also the first rookie to reach those numbers Clark also recorded her

her day one in the WNBA Nick brigh talking about Clark’s on court treatment said it’s culmination of rookie hazing jealousy and some racial animus I’m not going to uh say I made a mistake uh falling in love with uh Caitlyn Clark and women’s basketball and following it all this season I enjoyed it I I really did I I I’d like to see athletes compete uh that are free of all the tattoos and all the uh hip hop all the stuff that’s been smothered in in sports and baked into sports you got to look
like you just came off a rap stage or just came out of prison to play in the NBA or NFL that all the music sounds like it’s a prison concert and it’s just hard to watch it’s hard to stomach so while Jason Whitlock also called out the racist s and bigots who use their platforms trying to denigrate and diminish Clark is this plot much thicker than we all thought you know how long ago Don Staley could have told everybody hey get up off of Caitlyn Clark’s back you know how long ago she could have done that but she waited until
after she won a championship and now now now it’s time to back off and tell every she could have done that when some woman she didn’t know that had nothing to do with women’s college basketball Rachel Richardson or whatever the Duke volleyball player was when her auntie talked her into claiming that by students chanted the nword at her Don Staley jumped in this conversation from South Carolina Duke is playing BYU in Utah in volleyball Don Staley jumped in that conversation all the way from South Carolina to defend Rachel Richardson who
was lying Caitlyn Clark gets abused All Season everybody’s trying to denigrate and diminish her Don St is quiet oh man Clark is fast becoming a reckoning Force to the WNBA causing ruffled feathers on and off the court especially with a fever recent breakthrough and her strong foothold to be named Rookie of the Year a feat that’s not gone unnoticed by the Chicago Sky head coach Diamond weather spoon when you’ve had an opportunity to play them and then having an opportunity to watch them play you see that they’re
really jelling well together playing extremely well together Caitlyn is the head of that snake and she has that team running and utilizing every bit of everybody’s gift so they’re playing extremely good basketball so head of snake Weatherspoon has got one hell of a talent for word play Let’s dat the facts fam Caitlyn is more than the head of her Viper she’s the Viper and also the body the rookie embodies everything about teamwork and growth despite the incident and string of hostile moments between
