great thank you so much now back to the video Angel Reese's stats are insane so let's talk numbers this season she is the only player in the WNBA to have consecutive games with at least 10 points 10 rebounds and five steals that is not only excellent but it breaks records we are discussing a rookie who is already outperforming seasoned players who appear to be catching up this is where things get strange though Reese's figures According to some fans don't add up they're scratching their brains as they take in these insane facts for what she's been able to do angel ree sneaking her way somehow found her way to the bucket has really found her footing over the last four or five games Reese that def catch and the finish on Smith and add something to say about it out Reese running the floor oh what a pass johnwell Jones on the money to Reese big to B why because although Reese is getting more and more points and rebounds the Chicago Sky her team isn't exactly winning games do you recall the game we discussed before Reese had 19 points and 20 rebounds sounds incredible doesn't it however the sky dropped 20 points that is a blowout not simply a loss people are also questioning it let's now discuss Camila cardoso she's another newcomer to the sky but she's been performing admirably as well the problem is that cardoso's playing time has been inconsistent she plays for 28 minutes in one game then just 16 in the next what is happening a few admirers believe they have figured out the code it's said that the sky approach is centered on enhancing Reese's appearance is the squad foregoing cardoso's growth in order to boost Reese's statistics stranger things have happened in the world of professional sports so perhaps this is just a wild hypothesis let's dissect it reys is snatching boards in both directions without a question she has a nose for the ball but something doesn't quite add up when you watch the game footage on certain plays it appears appears as though her teammates are practically passing her rebounds is is there something more going on here or is this just excellent teamwork not to mention the scoring reys is scoring but at what expense there are times when she's taking shots in games that leave you wondering is she attempting to maintain her double double streak or is she aiming for the team's best play which they've already gotten a few of today when we say pace let's not get confused because they they run really the the second slowest Pace in the leag and it hasn't done that in N9 years that is certainly according to Kim M hey that's that's our objective can we win one more game than we did a year ago in this tournament look at the slithery move Reese times the offensive rebound a tough reverse to get and again another defensive Play Nothing But Chicago bodies ahead extending the lead to five in relation to that run Reese holds the WNBA record for the most double doubles in a row she has outperformed the game's Legend Candice Parker for a novice that is enormous the point is does it matter as much when your team is having trouble don't get me wrong though reys has remarkable defensive abilities she has excellent instincts and deaft hands she isn't just picking up those steals but there are still some unanswered questions regarding shooting remember concerns about her potential to be a high usage player played a part in her draft selection what then is the true situation here is Reese the wnba's next great thing or is she merely Adept at padding the stat sheet there is disagreement among the fans her contributions are being praised and some have dubbed her a GameChanger while the squad is failing some are considering the wider issue and questioning whether these individual figures actually matter do you recall all that matchup with uh the Mercury let's examine each play in detail Reese was swarming the court snatching rebounds in every direction however I saw something that you probably overlooked the first time Reese receives the ball close to top of the key in one particular Play She dribbles for a while pauses and then wait for it begins did you notice that re-watch it in slow motion although it's a classic double dribble the whistle never went out furthermore it's it's not a one-time event in that game alone we discovered at least three other instances where Reese got away with identical plays let's now discuss Reese's shooting a star player should have a confident fluid stroke right however some of these shots appear to be more like frantic EES than skillful basketball on one such play reys catches the ball on the wing pumps fakes twice despite the fact that no Defender is in close proximity and then fires a shot that just misses the rim is this the kind of shot that a top player should take but it's not all about the misses it has to do with making decisions sometimes Reese has a teammate open underneath the basket but she chooses to shoot a disputed jumper instead although she could undoubtedly grab a rebound to boost her individual stats would the team truly benefit from that now contrast this with the onc court performance of Caitlyn Clark Clark is acing victories while Reese is accumulating stats which is more crucial Clark is improving her teammates rather than just scoring goals above all she's getting her team into winning positions locating the open player and creating easy basket opportunities let's examine the figures Clark averaged 22 points eight assists and seven rebounds in their previous five games of the five her Squad won four Reese in a game she averaged 18 points 15 rebounds and three assists pretty amazing huh however her team's record was just one 1 to five as they say statistics don't always convey the whole story this is where things become really fascinating though Reese made some remarks on the officiating that caused some people to take notice it's like they're not even watching the same game when she's on the court she said implying that the officials were biased in favor of Clark every player believes they aren't getting calls these days but to confront another player in such a manner that is Advanced not just the fans fans are noticing either the League's other players are beginning to converse Rees is talented no doubt about it remarked one veteran who wished to remain nameless however this game is much more than merely racking up points you must improve your team does angel Reese indeed have this much to hide or is there more to the story let's listen to what her teammates think in a recent press conference Courtney vandersloot the point guard for Sky defended Reese saying angels working hard out there she has a great deal of Promise is still young and is learning we're all learning how to have fun together however it appears that some members of the squad are not in agreement in answer to a question concerning her decreased playing time Camila cardoso said in a tactful yet insightful tone I'm here to support the team in whichever way I can naturally I would like to play more but the coach has the last say now let's talk about angel Reese and Camila cardoso the dynamic duo that has everyone talking together these two rookies are creating WNBA history and it's not only due to their individual performance uh three times this season they have recorded double doubles in the same game an accomplishment never before accomplished by a rookie pair that is absurd the strange thing is that supporters aren't exactly exploding with excitement why because the Chicago sky are having trouble Rees and cardoso are producing impressive numbers it is comparable to owning two brand new sports vehicles in your garage but being unable to operate them both simultaneously let's dissect it Reese recently finished with 11 points and 13 rebounds in a game versus the dream not too terrible huh cardoso with 10 points and 11 rebounds wasn't far behind that appears fantastic on paper however the sky continued to lose they seem to be making progress on half of the puzzle but are still unable ble to complete it this is when the exciting part starts fans are beginning to question whether the sky approach is solely focused on enhancing Reese's appearance is the squad forgoing cardoso's growth in order to boost Reese's statistics although it's a difficult question we must pose it consider it cardoso has had inconsistent playing time she plays for about 30 minutes during one game and then she hardly plays for 15 for a rookie attempting to establish herself in the league that is not the kind of consistency you want to see cardoso though doesn't appear to be affected by it nobody's going to get rebounds over us when me and Angel are together she remarked after a game in which she and reys both had strong performances you want to see that kind of confidence but is it sufficient let us examine the overall picture the sky has a 4 to6 record that's not very good indeed it's quite disheartening for a squad with this caliber of youthful Talent there seems to be a problem that goes beyond Reese and cardoso is there a coaching problem are they not making good use of their rookies or could it be that the squad is still learning how to incorporate these new stars into their system and is experiencing Growing Pains whatever the issue is the sky must quickly resolve it if they hope to salvage their season let's now discuss something that truly caused a hornet's nest to blow do you recall when Reese accused the referees of favoring Caitlyn Clark things quickly became heated it was no longer simply about basketball players were voicing their opinions and fans were divided the question is though was Rees correct it's a sensitive topic everyone believes they don't get calls so why would someone call out another player in such a way that's audacious supporters who felt it was long overdue for someone to speak up praised her some believed it to be sour grapes as it happens this is no longer solely about angel Reese it extends beyond the Chicago Sky we need to re-evaluate how we define success in the WNBA in light of the current circumstances is every statistic important team triumphs is it something more though for more Hoops videos that cover the latest and greatest stories click that subscribe button so you stay in the game if Caitlyn Clark can hit a logo 3 surely
