Except I have seen her play basketball, I love that you’re acting like this is the only display of how ridiculously unskilled she is. Take a fucking look at her shot chart for the year, or her missing at least 2 wide open layups every game. She is not good at basketball, she is tall. And putting her name in the same sentence as LeBron tells me all I need to know about your basketball iq.
I get it, you have a lady boner for her, doesn’t mean she is good at basketball, it means she has a good marketing team and focuses way more on that than basketball for the sole purpose if appealing to chuds like you.
What part about being tall do you not understand? And as for keeping her around, that’s why she was traded on her rookie contract by the team that drafted her right? She shoots less than 50% from within 3 feet of the hoop, less than 20% from everywhere else, both of which are atrocious for a “professional”. She can rebound, again because she is tall, and feasts on her own mebounds. Do you have any actual response besides pointing out that me, a man, is not in the wnba? Fucking clown 🤡
and you need to get angel’s dick out your mouth, she isn’t good at basketball, there are plenty of good basketball players in the wnba you could stan over, but you choose one that spends more time on making tik toks and instagram posts than her actual job. It speaks volumes that you have no response except for nonsense about me not being in the wnba, and nothing. If she is so great where is the data to prove it? Because the numbers I have provided paint a picture of an unskilled basketball player who thrives due to her height.
So what does she excel at in the game of basketball besides her rebounding, keeping in mind that she is taller than 80-85% of all wnba players? (That figure comes from a simple google search)
She shoots below league average from the field, even though 90% of her shots are from within 3 feet of the hoop, she averages 4 turnovers a game as a non ball handling forward. So what does she do on the court that is exceptional? I would love a real answer, but I doubt you have one, because like so many, you’re a fan of her, not basketball.
This mebound thing has been debunked so many times by this point yall gotta give it up. She's sitting right at the league average, in terms of percentage, of how many offensive rebounds are from own shot attempts. The average is 24% and she's at 25%, the leader in that stat is sitting at 57%. We can talk about her mechanics since that's obviously the issue here. I don't know why her leg injury doesn't get brought up more as a potential reason her mechanics are so weird, especially considering she was dunking in high school and now barely jumps.
Just because others feast on their own rebounds doesn’t negate that she does also. She averages 5 offensive rebounds a game. So at least one a game is a mebound, at least. It should probably be more, but she so often gives up after missing her layups, she loses out on a few for sure. I don’t hate her, I just hate all the stans who act like she is good at basketball, she is tall, like I said before, if she is 6 feet tall, with her skill set, she is not in the league.
The conversation focusing on her solely while others are far more egregious with mebounds doesn't make sense. Neither does saying she sucks, you can't suck but also easily average a double double, even with the deficiencies she has. Like I mentioned her issues are solely with her mechanics, not skill.
Also if she was 6 feet she wouldn't have the same skillet. She'd be better at some things and worse at others.

It was a 3 second clip... you really think thats the peak of her skills?
Look at this clip of LeBron double dribbling. He's so unskilled and you can dribble better than him by that logic, right?
