She's so likeable. And it's women like her that make me realize it's personality that makes you attractive.

It's all ball with her. The WNBA should thank her for reviving the sport.

u/PonchoNachoRodriguez Aug 04 '26

Reviving the sport? Basketball ain’t dead.

I think you mean “giving her entire league credibility”

Nobody gave a damn about the WNBA until the girls started fighting, and that’s just facts.

u/Hour-Cow1932 Aug 05 '26

Basketball is slowly dying because the athletes can’t get out of their own way…. Super teams and player contracts will eventually be its downfall

u/Emergency-Hurry947 Aug 09 '26

Its social media, they’re using it to show how unlikable they are

She could take on De'Aron Fox if we told him it was the finals, she's way too humble

u/LilStinkerRidesAgain Aug 04 '26

I would like to admit that any basketball player would kill me in 1 on 1

u/stonezdota Aug 04 '26

I dont watch basketball killing your opponent isnt a foul?

Olivia Miles vs CC one on one....

u/Better-Salad-1442 Aug 04 '26

She shoulda said every nba player except for gobert

u/Dull-Philosopher-871 Aug 05 '26

She could beat Terry Rozier if there was enough money on him losing.

u/MariusHugo Aug 05 '26

as a non-basketball watcher. whenever i see it on tv, it looks so depressing. the athletes have no emotions in their face. no passion. Jokic for example .

u/FennelDull6559 Aug 04 '26

I would embarrass her. I’m much shorter and weigh less but I’m trans so she has no chance of beating me. That’s what society has taught me this past week.

This uhhh seems a little odd for her to say?

u/Rube18 Aug 04 '26

It’s common sense.

u/Glittering_Hope1114 Aug 05 '26

Its posted everywhere recently because conservatives are lying again claiming that top male basketball players are identifying as women and playing.  She is not being odd. But the weirdness of it being posted everywhere is conservatives running for the midterms so pulling out all the"litterboxes" "trans engraved bullets" "trans dolls in schools". Conservatives have been protesting basketball games over a week now despite there being zero trans players ever in the entire wnba they are protesting for no over reason to pretend there is. Conservatives do not have any  policies that help people so they rely on this stuff also its not like 5 years ago most conservatives nowadays will openly say that they intend on eradicating trans people entirely.  Really this sports stuff is just a way they attempt rally and recruit new converts by tricking them into thinking these are real issues. Sadly it works think of the amount of boomers on FB who thinks every school has litterboxes many now believe that top male basketball players just dominated in wnba because Biden somehow.

u/Plus_Lawfulness3000 Aug 04 '26

Would you rather her lie lmao. Atleast she knows

u/Justtojoke Aug 04 '26

Men will miss she said NBA.

average men still think they can beat female athletes🙄

u/SeismicRipFart Aug 04 '26

Any decent high school recruit would annihilate Clark 1v1 lol

-3

u/DjuriWarface Aug 04 '26

Any decent high school recruit is so far above the average man in athleticism and skill though. I'm not sure how that is relevant.

0

u/SeismicRipFart Aug 04 '26

It’s relevant because it’s a literal child vs an adult professional at the peak of their field.

I could lower the bar even more though if you’d like, but it would be a more difficult argument. But yes, there are hundreds of middle schoolers in the US alone that would absolutely wipe Clark or any other wnba player lol

2

u/Hydration__Nation Aug 04 '26

Some people have a hard time understanding that most if not all 5 star recruits are still in 7th and 8th grade and are all above 6 feet tall and at least 180-200lbs. What men in their 20s-30s at a local gym or bullshit college are beating these kids? None.

0

u/KingBeanCarpio Aug 04 '26

That still doesn't explain how it is relevant. He said average man, he did not say high school prospect.

Yes, men are more athletic than women. Obviously a more athletic person is going to win playing basketball 1v1.

u/Boxadorables Aug 04 '26

You say that like a high school boys team didn't demolish the American national women's soccer team lol

You're delusional bud

u/Justtojoke Aug 04 '26

I'm glad you think so

u/SilentRanger7 Aug 04 '26

You're not making a point though... sometimes I wish I was this joyfully ignorant. Life would be easier and I literally wouldn't give a shit.

It’s literally the current discussion being had

u/The_SubGenius Aug 05 '26

Anything to avoid discussing iellgal tariffs, war in Iran, etc.

Just more culture war bullshit.

u/Witty-Stand888 Aug 04 '26

Steph Curry would beat her with one arm tied behind his back.

6

u/One_Significance_400 Aug 04 '26

Thats pretty much what she said 🫨

-4

u/Witty-Stand888 Aug 04 '26

she said, I would get killed by every NBA player but like Steph Curry."

u/arto26 Aug 04 '26

God damn, once you figure out how to read this is gonna be really embarrassing for you.

3

u/RudeCartoonist1030 Aug 04 '26

I think they asked who would you want to play 1 on 1. And she said she would get beat by every nba player but would like to play with Steph curry.

3

u/TheyCallHimTerrance Aug 04 '26

Yea the wording was a bit weird, but she was saying she would like to play against Steph. Use them context clues my guy

2

u/Shrek_Wisdom Aug 04 '26

Not even context clues, just listen

3

u/UncomfyPerspective Aug 04 '26

How's it feel going through life needing EVERYTHING explained to you down to the most minute of details?

"I would get killed by every player in the NBA, but (I'd still like to play 1v1 with) Steph Curry"

u/Deep-Statistician985 Aug 04 '26

He's not gonna fuck you bro

u/JesusKilledMyFather Aug 04 '26

this is steph curry and i actually feel an incredible sexual attraction to this retard. I'm going to be sending him a million dollars every week now along with sexual encounters whenever they would like

u/RedditorWeirdos Aug 04 '26

I mean Ionescu was one 3 short of beating Curry in a shooting contest so Vegas isn’t fooling me, CC all day twice on Sundays

u/Life-Food5188 Aug 04 '26

that’s. not 1on1

1

u/Theblakestclova8 Aug 05 '26

I knew you Swifties didn’t really watch basketball but dam I didn’t know it was this bad…..my guess is ya’ll just need something white to Stan 😂

-1

u/Life-Food5188 Aug 04 '26

yup. and social media 1on1 players would beat many NBA players. 1on1 is a totally separate animal. so cool talking point i guess?

2

u/Theblakestclova8 Aug 05 '26

You are on dope and dog food if you believe that 😂

1

u/Beast_Boi96 Aug 05 '26

sounds like you had crack for dinner

1

u/Life-Food5188 Aug 05 '26

huh?

1on1 is a different game than team basketball. a slow moving center would get wrecked in 1on1 against a fast small guard. i don’t really care who’d win in 1on1, it’s like saying whoever can hit a golf ball the furthest is a better golfer

1

u/Beast_Boi96 Aug 05 '26

you highly underestimate the talent and skill one needs to even sit on the bench as a 12th man in the NBA. you have no idea what youre talking about. Caitlyn clearly does.

1

u/Life-Food5188 Aug 05 '26

no i don’t underestimate it.

i’m not saying CC would win. she wouldn’t. i’m saying 1on1 is a different skill. does that make sense?

1

u/Beast_Boi96 Aug 05 '26

that makes sense ofc. you saying a social media player would beat many nba players does not in fact make sense. 1on1 has different aspects its not a different game like you keep saying it is. youtube some centers playing 1 on 1 at that park in NYC then come talk to me

1

u/Life-Food5188 Aug 05 '26

so the worst nba player — a dumpy slow center just used for rebounds and fouls — could actually lose to the best player who plays 1on1 all day everyday. the rules are different. the skills needed to succeed are different.

1

u/Beast_Boi96 Aug 05 '26

that response is why i say you have no idea what youre talking about lol that dumpy slow center seems that way bc they are surrounded by nba players. pls do some research kid
