I saw a column one day about all the new WNBA fans Clark has brought to the league. Which is undoubtedly true. This columnist also pointed out that many of these newbies think that Clark is the best player in the league?
His opinion, which I concur with, is that currently she is not even in the top ten. She is a fine player, and likely will get into that upper echelon one day, but isn’t there quite yet. Flashy, for sure. But there are veteran players in this league who game in and game out that make solid game after game plays that win games, without some of the flair and I imagine drama that Caitlan brings. Again, she can play, but she isn’t quite what some of her followers quite believe she is.
BTW, hats off to Reeves for finally putting the focus on the miserable reffing that the league either condones, or encourages. This is NOT a Lynx thing, it’s league wide. I also wonder if Reeves Rant opened the door for Phee to evicerate Commissioner Cathy for her inability to see that mixing BB and professional wrestling does not make for an interesting, or fair, contest. It was a cold, calculated, and classy summation of what is the leagues biggest on court negative!
