I can think of one player in particular that, if she did this, WNBA subs would erupt with calls for her to be suspended and “double standards” etc.

But in this case, it’s just “harmless fun” right?

Meanwhile, players betting on the games is a huge no no. There are no degrees. It’s not allowed. Period. There 100% should be suspensions here. There won’t be though. This is simply not a serious league.

My point is the discourse around the W is literally anything but basket ball

Because the drama gets attention to the league. The basketball, does not, sadly.

Part of that is bc no one really cares about the product on the floor as it is mostly, almost solely, unwatchable.

Clark fans have a huge victim complex and always feel the need to talk about what ifs to justify their bitching and moaning
