Women are catty and jealous of each other?

Pages of argument and this is all it is. It’s like y’all have never been around groups of women

Not as if a group of men would freeze someone out on the court or say,  block another player from being included on an Olympic team.

WRT relevance to their respective leagues, it would have been Jordan, not Zeke who was left off the Dream Team; if you're going there with the WNBA.

Not the point,  the idea that only women are petty when there are multiple examples of feuds and pettiness in the NBA.

Imagine not knowing one of the lead guards on a team that won a championship back to back recently and almost 3peated and is still one of the better guards in the league today and then think people should give a shit about your opinion on the matter. I guess you Clark stans assume everyone is as ignorant in regards to the WNBA as most of you are. So far the only argument in this discourse has been they should have voted her first, well because she is CC. She has missed half the season and believe it or not there are players that have been better than her this season. 

God I hate having to agree with Derka, but that was literally his fucking point.

The casual fan doesn't know most players. Clark. Reese obviously.  Maybe Paige cause she's been talked about for years.  Possibly Sabrina, and of course A'ja...maybe a small group know Breanna and Griner That's about it for current players.

I get what you are saying, but I actually think you are making the opposite point by saying it.

WNBA was a flailing league. If it wasn't outright dying, it sure wasn't growing with any alacrity that would anyone would confuse with health. If you cop to being a WNBA fan pre-CC, that is cool, but it's rare. And it stands to reason that the reason the league was failing (cue Bill Burr for the 11th time) is that it had no broad support from any sufficiently large demographic.

So the fact that the (massive) growth drivers are new fans who don't really know a lot of the players who were drowning in a sinking league isn't the flex you think it is. That said, there are a few names that casual fans shold have heard of and I think Kelsie Plum is one of them. You should have a passing awareness that she is a person and a component of the league just as I know there is a fat rapper named LIzzo and Gorilla the red, even though I have never and will never listen to woman rap. Just by virtue of being alive.

Exactly.

Fucking laughable. My guess is if you stop 10 people randomly on the street and ask them how Kelsey Plum makes a living, 1 might be able to tell you she's plays in the wnba. If you ask details like what team she plays for and what position, you might have to ask 25+ before someone knows. Unless you're at a  Subaru owners convention, Plum is as relevant nationally as someone like Sergino Dest. Solid player but moves zero needles.

Pretty much.

That scoring record should still be Plums.   It took Caitlin 9 seasons to break it

I know you were jagging but, I decided to go ahead and take a look at their stats while in college.

Both are wonderful players.

Both played 139 collegiate games.

Clark averaged 28.4 ppg while Plum averaged 25.4 ppg.

Plum played more minutes per game, 37.4 to 34.8 which, if you just divide the total by 40 minutes, works out to basically nine more games than Clark played.

Clark averaged more rebounds per game, 7.1 to 4.3 and assists per game, 8.2 to 3.8.

Clark shot better from the floor, 46.2% to 44.3%. Plum did shoot better from 3, 38.2% to 37.7%.

Clark scored 3,951 points to Plum's 3,527. 

Blew her right out of the water.

Who said “only women?”

The casual fan ≠ Caitlyn Clark stans that refuse to become casual fans because CC isn’t being treated as a holy grail.
