Bronny would be the best player in the WNBA. Easily.

but the same could be said for the vast majority of dudes playing in the league
Have we fallen into a mesmerized state that makes us accept as inevitable that which is inferior or detrimental, as though having lost the will or the vision to demand that which is good?

Absolutely.

I think Bronny is one of the 15 worst players in the NBA currently.

In a world where she had to play the same minutes per game:

She is shooting sub 40 in her league.
She would be shooting sub 20 in the NBA.
She is averaging 5.5 TOs in her league.
She would be averaging 10 plus in the NBA.
I figure 99 times out of 100 you would get the first case scenario in this video.
1 time out of 100 you MIGHT get the second case scenario.

While some may think the WNBA rookie of the year race is very close at the moment, I happen to think/feel/believe if she stays healthy, Clark wins WNBA rookie of the year easily - without knowing who is doing the voting.
If both Clark and Reese continue to play the same way they have been playing, no matter who wins, ZERO chance people don't/won't take the race of the voters and how they voted in to strong consideration. That's a shame.

Watching Caitlin whenever possible. Her coach is amazed at her passing ability. I have to replay some of her passes and her Maravich-esq Globetrotter-esq like passes.
The Indiana Fever is catching on to some of Caitlin’s moves and the team is starting to gel. Caitlin for ROTY!

Good for the Liberty? I say yes.
Thing I don't understand is why were the starters still in the game at that point?

P.S. Maybe I am overthinking things but is seems to me Reese might have had a beef with Lindsay Allen (#15 on the Sky) not passing her the ball in the last 6 seconds.

P.S.S.
I am somewhat confident my 91 year old 5 foot 2 inch tall mother wouldn't look this bad on a layup.

Those videos are a great introduction to these comments by Adrienne Ross, Gutter.

I'm a fan of Caitlin what's her name, but like the NBA, I'm not steeped in the details. That being the case, I didn't know about any of the things Ross alleges in her comments below. It makes me tired and cynical just to listen to it. Let's hope there's a huge learning curve this year with all the changes Caitlin Clark's arrival has wrought on the league, and things are upward and onward in the future.

Angel Reese's double-double streak ended at 15 in the Chicago Sky's loss to the New York Liberty on Saturday. But all the hoopla around the streak lowered the standard of greatness, thus diminishing the sport.

Angel Reese's Now Defunct Double-Double Streak Diminished the Sport

In case anyone cares, the Indiana Fever, 10-14, are playing the Minnesota Lynx, 16-7, on ESPN starting now, 4:00.

First play of the game and what's her name turns it over and the other team scores...

I'm watching the soccer match but looking at the WNBA game box score at the 5:48 mark of the 2nd quarter - Caitlin Clark sucks.
