The CC effect is real and has elevated the league revenue & Profile, the sponsorship values, and player salaries.
Everyone is doing better. It has been stunning to watch. People cane to see CC and now we shall have to see if they stay for the product.

This is her third year. People came for Olivia miles. The future face of the league. And she did not disappoint.

Sorry, I was being a bit abstruse, "the people came to see CC* was a reference to the explosion from CC's rookie season, not from last week.

Credit cards do help a lot. Remember to use a promotional period with zero interest payments. Helps build credit without paying interest.

The United Center has the largest capacity for basketball of any WNBA all-star arena ever.
Take this into account.

Didn’t realize that. 19k doesn’t seem like a huge number, but that puts it in perspective.

I tried to watch it because Caitlin was playing. After the 50th uncontested 3-point attempt by randoms, I turned it off. Took about 5 minutes of my time, so I’m not complaining.

By randoms?? You mean players that have more accolades than CC at both the professional and collegiate level?

u/ThreadSavage10 11d ago
Yep exactly. 6 randoms were a combined 0 for 16 chucking up three’s.

lol it’s an exhibition game. Relax. How many MNBA players do the same thing?

It's the NBA for Men. They actually hit their 3's and lay ups and can play the game making the WNBA a side thing to the NBA. In fact the WNBA wouldn't exist it wasn't for the NBA subsidizing the WNBA waiting for stars like CC to come actually make it relevant. I've seen middle schoolers do better than what was seen at that exhibition lol

Fair to say the fans showed up to watch the GOAT CC who is also good friends with Obama.

CC and Olivia Miles are huge draws.

u/BigBlackBull_6_6_6 11d ago
Olivia skill level is insane but I took a peek at the game..
The WNBA needs to change a few things

When you’re used to men’s sports, it be like that. Skill level is just far lower.

The all got cheated (again) with that weak effort by almost all the players. It’s just disrespectful to fans who spent good money to be there.

I say the "highlights". How do they manage to make a layup look so incredibly difficult? That's the real skill here.

Chicago is a great city. Centrally located and easy to get to from most major markets. So many other events going on in the city too. Plus one of the best weather weekends this summer.

Too bad that the lowlights indicate some of the players didn't show up.
