What about Reese's game is at all entertaining? The 10 foot set shot? Just not seeing her being a draw in 2_3years.

It’s not and that’s not a knock on her. She does a really good job of building her brand. It fits well with the current wnba brand of tough physical players. But it’s just clunky to the majority of the country who are not wnba loyalists. players like Caitlin, juju and Paige are way silkier.

It's deeper than just her game. She built a huge following after the Clark situation and it's followed her to the wnba. And yes she's not as exciting as Clark but beauty can also be found In great defense and rebounding. She's also a warrior on the floor and has been trying to build her offensive skills by hitting a midrange jumpers here and there as the season has progressed.

Would anyone have a clue who she is if not for Clark? We will see if the league continues to grow around players other than Clark. I mean the league is over 20 years old and this might be the first year that they make a profit without being sustained by the NBA.

I think it's amazing when you look at how the WNBA is treating Clark vs how the NBA treated it's stars. It seems like there is a severe case of vitriol by the league against her vs realizing what she is doing for the league. She is elevating the popularity of the sport and all of the league is benefitting from it.
They have a built in story line that they could run with a Clark/Reese rivalry, similar to the Magic/Bird era. That rivalry worked wonders for the NBA and this could as well for the WNBA if they would just embrace it. |

It’s awesome and totally fitting that these racist carpet-munchers are going to destroy the best thing to ever happen to this abomination of a league. Good riddance.

Because of his off court antics. No one tuned into watch the Bulls play because of him. He wasn't popular because he rebounded well and played good defense.

Paige and Juju going into the league over the next two years will elevate things even more cause both are arguably more talented than Clark. Paige might actually be playing alongside Clark if the lottery goes Indiana's way again which would be crazy. Then in three or four years time Kaleena Smith, who is a prodigy and has Clark's range from three plus Kyrie like handles, should be going into the league too. So there is gonna be major talent across the league which would create a lot of excitement
