Because the old guard resents her popularity. And for some weird reason resent the kind of attention she’s bringing to the game. There’s no other good reason to explain the stupidity of leaving a cash cow off the roster for a position that we all know is completely meaningless to winning.

And it’s not like you’re inviting Anthony Bennett. You’d be including a highly decorated player who can sharp shoot with a decent supporting cast. |

I did. I did not say clark is the 12th best player. But neither is taurasi. If anyone got actually snubbed it’s Arike ogunbowole. So whether she is a better player or not is irrelevant.
But that isn’t what matters here. This is an irrelevant benchwarmer spot for a team that’s going to destroy every opponent regardless of who sits in the 12th chair. You don’t need McBride when you have plum and ionescu as sharpshooters and 7 guards on the roster. It is a largely irrelevant roster spot which makes the clark exclusion super dumb. McBride wouldn’t play meaningful minutes and neither would clark. Unlike McBride, clark brings a ton of PR to the team while she’s riding the bench, which McBride does not. Easy choice |

I will never forget watching Bennett's first summer league game and the very first shot he put up was horrible form and an absolute flat BRICK with no arc to it that looked like it hit the bottom of the rim and the announcer goes "UH OH" It was the first of so many |

Also it's not a very common take, but having all these WNBA players that hate Clark and are jealous is actually really good for the game. Don't get me wrong it's annoying that these idiots aren't on there knees thanking Clark for making their shit league actually relevant, but it is getting the league a ton of publicity.
People are actually talking about the WNBA and if it wasn't for the hate Clark is getting, then I think people's interests would have faded pretty quickly and I know the WNBA wouldn't be discussed daily on social media and on pretty much every sports show on TV. Rivalries always get more interest and people absolutely love the drama and shit talk. Why do you think that absolute hack Skip Bayless has probably the most popular sports show on TV? All this drama may be able to keep eyes on a subpar league for a season or 2 and maybe that will give Clark enough time to acclimate into the league and people will watch because she's dominating. I don't know how long they can get by on being the equivalent of a reality TV show. |
