Precisely, hard to justify dumping one of the best players to wear your gear. Especially after two games but they wont do a thing with her playing like she is on a team by herself. Maybe she will ask out and make it easy on them if she doesnt want to change. Edited May 20May 20 by d2o

May 23May 23 Good for them but still such a waste to not connect them to the Nets and share facilities instead of spending $100 million on a practice facility

The name recognition of tying them to a city/NBA team is free publicity, easy for the fans etc. What does a new practice facility provide other than a real estate investment?

Perks like that are a FA draw. Especially given that the salaries that teams can offer are not very different, perks can make the difference in a player's decision. They are already tied to the city in their name and the fact that they play in Barclay's Center. They are one of the original teams in the league and have their own name/identity.

May 23May 23 Yikes 0-12 from Angel last night and Kamilla seemed totally out of it. Don't blame her as she KNOWS she's the better player taking a back seat to the bigger mouth. When Angel, or her damn team, realizes she's a Draymond-light, or Noah, type player...good rebounder, defensive anchor type, and NOT the focal point of an offense, or even top 3, they'll be SO much better off.

May 27May 27 WNBA has concluded it's investigation into the racism charge towards the Indiana fans and found that nothing could be corroborated or substantiated.
May 28May 28 Shocking they again played the race card to defend a WNBA player who goes after Clark (AR’s over reaction to a normal basketball play etc) or criticizes a player for doing so.

There’s a line in there, “they said she wasn’t good enough.” Wilson was the national HS player of the year, 3x SEC player of the year, 3x consensus All-American, NCAA player of the year, 1st round draft pick, 3x WNBA player of the year. Literally her entire playing career has consisted of absolutely everyone affirming that she is absolutely good enough.

Funny how you all nitpick shit like this LOL MJ was getting inducted into the HOF and he was still talking about how he didnt make his HS varsity team as a sophomore. Every great player talks about some slight (or perceived slight) they encountered along their way and it becomes a part of their story Edited June 1Jun 1 by d2o

Every great player talks about some slight (or perceived slight) they encountered along their way and it becomes a part of their story He did. My own opinion is that most high-level athletes can seamlessly switch between “they all give me their best shot cause I am the champ” and “they are disrespecting me.” Whatever is needed at the moment. I am nitpicking Nike and not AW here, though. I think it’s fair to call out massive publicly traded companies when you see logical failures in their PR. It’s not an insult to AW. CC reminds me of MJ and Bird because she absolutely plays with a hard edge. However, it is so controlled and strategic and targeted that causal fans don’t notice and even sophisticated fans can justify it. She’s not ever dirty or out of control. She’s surgical with it. And onto the motivation, I don’t mean to suggest she is not emotional or driven. Rather- she has the capacity to really master the “disrespect” or “best shot” emotions and deploy them when needed for her purposes. It’s a remarkable skill that you saw with a player like MJ, who knew full well that everyone respected him but could convince himself otherwise. People like Clark are seriously impressive and scary. I think she could be something like an old-school test pilot or a F1 driver if she didn’t dedicate herself to basketball. That’s why she’s a transformative player and not just a great one.

June 11Jun 11 Man the Fever are really struggling without CC. Just got popped by the Dream by 20. They have a lot of other injuries too but they are struggling. The season is pretty short and they will need to get on a run to get back to a high seed
