Angel Reese: Fair pay, anti-sexualization, side eyes, and Missed Buckets

So, when she doesn't miss a shot, she only gets 2 rebounds. Telling.

Zing! 

Yeah I'm sure money raised to fight cyberbullying will be spent effectively.

shame, right after she made them take down the prop bet

So she made her first shot then stopped shooting to shut up the haters? She played 21 of 40 mins, left the game midway through 3rd qtr with her team down 30, and her teammates brought them back to within 20 and Angel never came back in the game?

So she shoots free throws as well with her eyes open or closed.

Did anyone label these as "Meeboks" yet?

First off FUCK Joy Taylor...she horrendous on a Skip/Acho hot take level.

But I think she's confused...Reese wouldn't be a household name without that interaction.

Clark was always going to be.

Her team fucking sucks. 

Caitlin and co. have a little squad and I wouldn't be surprised if they make a run this year. The Sky are irrelevant and Reese isn't the type of player to ever drag a team to anything.

For anyone that cares about the actual games and results or even pays attention to them I think we're going to look back on this and laugh. I'm already laughing. 

There's a huge influx of extremely talented players that are going to seriously raise the competition level of this league and a player like Reese is going to get left in the dust. Unless she gets lucky and the next Magic Johnson gets drafted to her team. Even then - that player will be the major star over her.

Reese was never going to be a #1 player for a team.   She didnt have the athleticism or skill to be that.   What she does have is an incredibly high level of hustle and pretty good playmaking skills.   She could be a great compliment to a next level talent.    Pairing her with Cardoso will be really good once they get some better guards.   Losing Vandersloot hurt them but she is older and not as impactful as she was.   Even when she was at her peak she wasnt a scorer though.   They need a backcourt scoring threat ASAP

Reese is obviously a self-absorbed head case, but its laughable to suggest she'll wash out of the league in a couple of years

1.) She leads the league in rebounding by a comfortable margin and is up there in steals as well, so she has value even with her "make a wish foundation" offensive skillset

2.) She brings eyeballs and drives discussion of a league that is desperately trying to grow awareness and you need villains to keep things interesting. The league is almost completely bereft of basketball talent and athleticism in general, so lets not pretend she is alone in that regard. Her salary is $75K. If you know anything about advertising costs, tell me the league doesn't benefit immensely from that $75K spent. Its not like she is sitting on a $40M/yr salary like Ben Simmons.

As long as her "value" to the league is orders of magnitude more than her salary, she ain't going anywhere. Unless she decides she can make more money shoving bowling pins up her ass on onlyfans, she'll have a spot to play for the foreseeable future. Simple economics guarantee that.

Who is saying that?

I was watching some of the Sky-Sparks game the other day and that was not a lot of fun because both teams are Washington Wizards level horrible. Reese needs to visit Hakeem in the off-season and get at least one post move for next season. She got blocked by a player whose feet never even left the ground. The move went right into the defender. I just cannot fathom how she can be fairly athletic and understands the defensive nuances of the game, but has no idea how to shoot. It's like watching Kwame Brown when he was a Laker.

The sky were second in road attendance last year but fourth from last this year.  Their attendance has increased but so has everyone’s and I think CC helped beef up some of those numbers

Wearing her Meeboks as she grabs the mebounds from her prayups. 

It's petty...but I respect the commitment to the bit.

i had to check to see if this was centel, but no, it’s real:

pitch meeting: “what if, instead of putting a popular player on the cover, we found three different players that nobody likes and put them all on the cover together?”

Edited by Derka

From last night's game. She called for the ISO then promptly turned it over for a layup the other way.

 

I can finally tell people that I can play as well as a professional basketball player.

turnovers happen, but this isn’t just a case of the defender getting the better of her, this is someone who has *zero* ability to dribble or handle the rock waving off her teammates, calling for an iso, and then just immediately losing the ball because she is so totally bereft of basketball skill. it would be hard to watch if she weren’t such a terrible person.

In high school I played summer league basketball despite not playing for my school.  I averaged about 20 points a game because my teammates were all from tiny schools and sucked ass and we lost every game.  Stays don’t tell the whole story.

Yeah, your summer league high school rec team experience is definitely analogous to Reese averaging nearly 50% more rebounds per game than the next highest rebounder in the WNBA.

To be fair, a lot of her rebounds are mebounds. It’s not just Angel. She’s the poster child of WNBA players expecting to be respected (and probably think they should be paid) as much as male pro athletes and most of them have ugly game.

The WNBA having Caitlin Clark and pushing Angel Reese instead is like if the NBA decided Patrick Ewing was the big superstar instead of Michael Jordan back in the day

It's very dumb

Yea. I don’t get it.  Is Angel even Pat Ewing good though?

She’s averaging 4 more rebounds than the next lady.  So yea.  Gotta give her credit.   The angle Reese fans are coming out now😂

You could take away every one of Reese’s offensive rebounds and she’d still lead the WNBA in rebounds per game.

If you took a couple of kids out of my 8th grade class it would have made me the smartest kid in that class, but that wouldn't have made us a very smart group of kids.

I remember dominating in JHS and being named All City which was of no surprise to anyone…
