The Indiana Fever's Playoff Potential | She Shoots She Scores Ep. 25

WNBA’s Best Backcourt: Is It Mitchell & Clark? Now angel re says 95% more double doubles than any active at WNBA player that's ever existed Caitlin Clark got her second triple double and I'm g go into my first hot take which is Kelsey Mitchell and Miss Clark have the best back court in the WNBA I said it from uh Jump Street when I thought that CC would make first team on WNBA it's looking like that but in addition to that I honestly think that Kelsey Mitchell also deserves an a you know she deserves she deserves that she deserves it as well she's nine and in top nine in scoring and the two of them have just been on a tag team tear and if you got two guards in the back court averaging almost 50 a game in a in a league where if you score 80 to 100 points you're winning they're they're contributing as you can see for most of their these teams points and uh it's it's interesting to see the fact that they've been developed they from from what we've seen from the beginning of the season until now is just light years they're light years ahead of where they were and it's just scary to see so they got two Dynamic guards and they got they got a overall great team because a Leo Boston's also been playing amazing as well so that's my hot take right there just the two of them they form the best back court in the W that's what I'm go I'm GNA rock with that nice and let I think they're good I mean Kelsey Mitchell since the break has also been someone that's been like going crazy um it just like I said um on my show when I was talking like they are clicking at the right time they have so many different options um if one of them is not having the best game you get you get three or four other options that you can go to um and they're all clicking at the right time and and like what a better time than the end of the season going into the playoffs so um yeah I mean I I I don't uh I can't say what other guards back court or I mean uh yeah the back court is great I can't really compare to me to many because I don't watch a bunch of the other teams so I won't disagree with your with your high take yeah I mean it's just you know like I said the two of them they just they they've just developed and it's just interesting because you brought this up the I remember last time we spoke you we you're mentioning um you know what what WNBA records will Caitlyn break you know on Pace and I was like I said you brought up a really fair point because Angel now holds the single season rebounding record right and as we can see so it says Caitlyn needs to average 18 a game and six assists over her last will now I believe this is six games to break the rookie season in points and the WNBA season in assists so I mean the two of them I mean what they're doing is just generational and like I said just the fact that she's been able to just just just devel like you don't you don't this is not normal you know what I'm saying this is not normal this is not normal this is not stuff that you see from rookies so like either of them they're coming into the league and rewriting records and they're saying hey no this is this is their floor now this Angel Reese & Caitlin Clark Changing the Game is this is their floor this is how we're gonna see them now this is the wor that they're gonna play so it's like wow okay what's the next five six years looking like for the league like when Diana terasi talked about Asia getting a three you know how you know the ISS like what what's the next thing that's getting ready to you know we're getting ready to see so it's a it's a great crop it's a great crop and I'm just really excited for the future of the league so and then again if I could let me just pull this up about Kelsey Mitchell because B you brought a really fair point I'm trying to let me see if I can find this right quick I was looking up their team stats are trying to right now so since the Olympic break the two of them yeah the two of them combined for 51 points per game 51 points per game and the next closest back court which I thought we I we predicted this in the beginning but I thought it would be Seattle I thought it would be Seattle but instead it is it is Kelsey Mitchell and klin Kelsey Mitchell and Caitlin Clark 51 points per game and then you have the next best back court at 44 and a half four 41 points per game so these the two of them if you got what if so I think about what if both of them get hot in the playoffs and go for 30 a piece and then it's like now you have to contain the other four players on the team because they have four of scores that can get 20 so it's like it's like pick pick your poison of which which way you want it to go do you want it to go through the post where Aaliyah can get hot and Nelissa or do you want to go you know to your guards where they can get hot so it's kind of hard right now to to um like when they're hitting on all cylinders like that and I remember I don't know who who it was someone was saying like you know there was some chemistry issues and maybe that you know C or some other players didn't couldn't really get along with with her with Cc or CC was having issues with whatever but it's working now yeah it's working now I think I think her facilitating is really like the key to their success being able to facilitate and then you just have it in your back pocket where you can score if you want and and it's just you know again it's like you have you have one player who can she doesn't have if if if you Caitlyn gonna put up 20 regardless but if you want her to like just put up like 15 assist like you can just have her do that and and and kelse is not gonna care like she's like all right cool I'll just score 40 you know like I'll give my 36 35 points and I'm cool with that so it's like the two of them they understand they understand they understand it's like they're understanding each other you know so it's right now there yeah kelsea's 19 points and Caitlyn is 18.9 yeah and then right after that you get Aaliyah Boston so I mean they got a triple threat yeah and you got Lexi who can go off at any mo the thever are playing great man like and they're playing they're playing so she talked about clinching a playoff SWAT and she said she expected to get there from the beginning of the year and then she said in addition to just plan there from in the playoffs once they got in there she's like oh I I expected this but this isn't the expectation it's just to make it she wants to win you know she wants to you know see how far they can honestly go I don't I'm I'm not g you know I'm not I'm not saying no chip I'm not I'm not saying that I wouldn't go as far as that I mean Indiana's been in a rebuilding for a while now so I they're finally where they're getting getting you know because in the beginning of the year people wanted Christy sides fire now I don't really hear too much about that now that they've been been on this on this streak but it's true but um yeah I mean they were in rebuilding for a very long time which is how they got the the two number one picks and you know they're doing what a rebuilding team or a team that's like almost out of rebuilding is is doing like you know they got the right pieces they're hitting on all cylinders they figured it out they got the chemistry and then now it's like can you continue doing that like not just this season like what's next season going to look like with these people are you switching people out or is it going to change depending on who's there or not so so um it's been it's been good to see for the for the league you know we they I want to see how far this team could go because they're they're playing well they playing Minnesota and we're gonna see because that's that's a tough team is that their next game I believe so I believe they play Minnesota next and you know they you know they got one off of them but speaking I want I want to say speaking a championship team so I want to I guess we're going to switch to fact and fiction question Tiffany Hayes is leading the six well I guess sixth Player of the Year sixth Player of the Year race right now do you believe that's fact or fiction right now she's averaging that's why I want to know what you think she's averaging 12 and a half in the last 11 games she's shooting nearly 72 7 68% like 70 62% so she's just been playing really well and the next so the next best player or the the I guess one of the other candidates would be from the Dallas Wings which I'll bring up but that's colani brown so I mean you know I was looking into this her efficien like there are so many things that you can say about Tiffany Hayes but I I wanted to know what were Sixth Woman of the Year Race: Who’s Leading? your thoughts about her she's been really playing well off you know she's been giv them a SP I like tip Hayes for six player um but I don't I mean can she get it being that she came on I don't I forgot when she came on to the aces she came in late but who I think she qualifies I can she still qualify for that okay I mean that's on my team so of course I go for tip like tip has been like the the way she played I mean against my other team Chicago um she was she coming I mean and she started because uh Kelsey Plum was uh was not playing because she was resting or whatever but she H she was all over the place like she's been such a spark for the aces not not super consistent but lately she has been um I would say since the break obviously a lot of people people have have um kind of risen since that that break or whatever just shows that they kind of needed that but um I would go for her I mean Kanani Brown I think she good she was the game that they had against what was it La when La was winning the game I think they were down by like 20 and they just started coming back and ended up winning the game by like three or four points at the end Kanani was right there rebounding getting a put back going for the ball like she was really you know pivotal in in that um so I like I like Kanani but I I I'll give it the tip I probably I agree with you because like again when it comes to like it's hard to give a Awards to teams that aren't winning so that's the only problem man I love my wings but they gotta get some dos man I mean I don't mind that but I still go with tip because I'm colani Kanani played well against Washington she had a double figure game Off the Bench 10 points so she's she's she's playing well she you're right they just got to get some wins man come on get into the playoffs so they can give you some some some awards y'all come on and they know it she want they she said it the other game Kanani said it the other day she's like you know we want to get to the playoffs we want to win and we want to you know see what we can do so and that's the Reon and that's funny that we are talking about colani so I want to ask you this Angel Reese Factor fiction will lead the Chicago Sky to a playoff birth this season when you say lead what do you mean just her tenacity and her fight and everything point because you know describe people be trying to drag my girl um yeah no I I think we can keep it I think we can I mean we've been down we've been missing people it's been tough um people have gotten hurt but um I think the whe is always there we're all the Chicago sky is always right there and just something falls apart at in the fourth quarter where they just cannot like capitalize and finish mainly their turnovers um but I think if Kennedy's coming back and she teams up with what Angel and Camila have been doing um since the Break um I think we can hold on to eth I think I I I feel like a streak is coming on and not just because of Kennedy I just was like look we G we GNA go on like at least a who three four game streak we got to pull up that we got to pull up the schedule I got we got to pull up the schedule we got La next I think we got Dallas I gotta look P we've had so many winnable games though it doesn't really matter we had we could have won against uh against the sun we could have won against the aces uh we were hanging with the aces this time it's just the the turnovers La Dallas so these are the Dallas game is a huge game on I know La Dallas Washington these are all and Minnesota don't have nothing for Camila Minnesota don't have nothing for Camila if they if the guards stay ready for when Camila's gonna kick it out if she can't get that get that point or get that basket we can get Minnesota they ain't got no inside they don't they don't they're a guard oriented and a and a perimeter oriented team which is why they're deadly because if they they're like Indiana well Indiana has a big though so but it's they they are they're they're guard oriented team so but with this with this rock okay La Dallas so you're going F that they're getting in so you got Phoenix Atlanta Atlanta game is tough too that's gonna determine that's gonna be the determining factor I think game right there yeah because we got Atlanta and is it Washington or Dallas that's like right there is it Dallas it's Washington Washington is right there yeah but I mean also if Dallas won like a game or two they'll be right there too right or if Washington lost they said it was like let me look at the standings that's I was about to pull them up just about to pull them up just I know it's two teams that's just like right there I mean Atlanta is we're tied with Atlanta it's Washington Washington's right there 10 and 23 and then it's Atlanta 11 and 22 Chicago's they're tied with you guys Dallas has a couple of games um mean if we if they win and we lose they're up they're kind of closer but Atlanta's right there and Washington is literally within two wins or two of our losses Sunny said everyone deserves their flowers in regards to us talking about r ree there you go thank you Sunny appreciate that thank you sunny it's refreshing not to get any any crazy comments I appreciate it well that's one of the more positive ones that's what I'm saying it's refreshing because I'm sure I'm sure the comments are uh going ham Kendall put Clark Rookie of the Year she okay so this is this is good these are so these are positive be careful please these are positive comments we appreciate it so let me I I don't agree with that somebody put her double doubles I'm like that's silly her double doubles are impact the winning we we already know that she impacts winning she's impacted winning she's won so now I'm GED to ask you this so we were speaking about impactful one of the wait what was your answer are you oh mes for fact and fiction yeah fact that's hold on Scott will get in the playoffs uh chat what do y'all think I mean we're in the playoffs right now we're in the playoffs the playoffs that's what I'm saying what was your answer you saiding no is Kennedy Carter healthy that's that's that's my answer is that's that's my biggest answer you can't answer a question with another question if she's healthy if she's healthy honestly because she's a huge X Factor she's our number one scorer our top score hello if she's not playing then it's it's really difficult to say yes if she's not playing and she's not healthy it's gonna be really difficult to say yes because like you just said it she is their top scorer yeah if she is healthy she makes the difference and I think that they can beat Washington with with Carter on the floor because I want to see whether spoon use Reese on the perimeter when you got a guard that's going off like Atkins or whomever use Reese on the perimeter against some of these guards you got another big anyway put on you know put she's athetic enough Stewie exactly she put her on Stewie and Stewie on a perimeter based player even though she's a four but it's like you can you can also have her play on the perimeter um Factor fiction I think again if Carter's if Carter's healthy I'm I'm GNA go yes because they're they're playing they're tied with Atlanta they play Atlanta and I would say that they're gonna beat Atlanta they've already beaten Atlanta um twice yeah I I would say yes to that and then the but Washington is like that's why I brought up if they aid is going off or whomever on the perimeter is going off they need to have re switch off and put guard one of the two of them because like they need you can't forget about big mama Steph CA she'll come up cardo is athletic enough to go out there yeah but she hits threes but that's that's my point she's card you said cardoso is athletic to go out there with her Oh I thought you were talking about posting up yeah leave her in single coverage yeah Miller I mean she's the leading score right now for the team yeah leave her in sing and she's a good passer so bab that's my point play man camil cardos could play for sure the chats are going crazy I appreciate it y'all who okay they're talking about hey h shout out to goall longtime listener um but yeah let me just uh they they they have me losing to my training thought but if Stephanie is going off and the fact that you have angel I really do want to see Teresa use angel on the the perimeter guarding perimeter def offensive players because I think she's athletic enough to do it as you can see when she always she used to always get full court steals she still kind of Trail down from it a little bit but she's she she always used to get them you know transition full court I'm like okay she could do this so and on the perimeter she but it's because she has to do so much on the offensive end which I feel like it's not to y'all part y'all y'all put a lot y'all put a lot of expectations on this she's a forward she's not playing guard and then you're expecting her to set up her own shot and she's not a perimeter based player and it's it's like y'all are expecting a lot from her and that's cool because we it's the same thing with Clark it's like y know how good y'all know how good she is so it's like I just just be real about it just be real about it but um the fact that the fact that she's doing so much in the capacity that she's given is just it's impressive again so I'm gonna go yes if Carter is healthy if Kennedy Carter is healthy I'm gonna go yes because it's just we need all our pieces if we're gonna keep that spot I think yeah I think I think it would be I think it'll be she because she is the she honestly is the difference she is the difference because it's like it's like Chelsea Gray on the aces I mean we got the MVP but if you ain't got you ain't got every piece on there that's that's hitting on all cylinders MVP can't do everything by herself I'm telling if I'm just just shoot the ball every time that's that's I don't I don't care how many times you can just shoot it shoot it seriously because I'm like that they need they need a guard that can just hit some shots in addition to or just create other shots for other people so it's like it just would it' be beneficial obviously that's why I said if she healthy you know if she's healthy to play and ready to go let her play if she's not she's G she's not she's not she gonna be a hindrance she's gonna be a hindrance if she's not we'll see what happens I don't want her to rush to you know we still got seven games or six games if she doesn't play why he he put not that's not true he don't think that that's true you don't I think kened is a good player what were you gonna say he said doesn't think what's not true that Kennedy's not a good player essentially he said yeah essentially I believe that he he disagrees I think they're still I don't know who they're talking about that's one no no Ken's not a good player I don't know who he's talking about I don't know who she she was going she was up for the sixth player of the year if she hadn't uh been a starter she was leading everybody yeah they're talking about somebody she's what was your next next topic yeah well the yeah next the next the next one was uh let's let's do this the WNBA mishandled the promotion of Caitlyn Clark is that fact or fiction what do you think about that it's fiction okay why do you say that because that's all they've been doing is is promoting her since the beginning the league the league they're Is the WNBA Overhyping Caitlin Clark? Let’s Talk Facts. not promoting anybody else that's their issue you you want to talk about promotion why you say that though because every IND indana game is on TV besides I think what is it four or six when they were one of the worst teams in the League last year so the only reason they got that is because of who they have on their on their team um every game that that was promoted in the beginning was graphic heavy with Caitlyn and what game she's playing who's going to be here who's playing this and they only report on the games that Indiana playing against other teams didn't care about the other teams that were playing that same day so I mean the promotion is there for her but does the promotion suck generally for the WNBA that they they they're not good at promoting yes they suck let me ask you this is it now is that the WNBA that's that's promoting the league or is that um is that what I'm asking is this is that as a result because ESPN is saying hey we want Caitlin to be on our Channel we're gonna broadcast all of her games versus the WNBA going to ESPN saying hey put kitlin on our Channel like I'm like I mean maybe not but WNBA runs their own social media and they weren't posting about anybody else but Caitlyn WNBA runs their league pass what you mean coming into the league I'm saying going into it and just just generally now I mean now you get it because people are breaking records and doing things Asia's playing crazy you got I mean you can't not talk about what Asia is doing you can't not talk about um you know Angels double doubles or what she's doing you can't talk about you can't not and they're not really talking about like Minnesota or or New York having like a long um streak and stuff like that but I'm saying where they can control it you don't see that much on their social media their commercials I keep saying that same commercial about welcome to the WNBA huh but was Sheila swis yeah was C it was a nice it was a nice commercial in the beginning but like that's the same serious yeah it would have been nice if it was one that's a good idea but they didn't do that and then like the whole like TD uh TD Garden game that wasn't even promoted that wasn't even talked about that sold out and it didn't include you know what I'm saying that that's an opportunity to include your other players because Caitlyn is good and great but I mean there's 143 other players in the in the in the W and if you want it to grow if you don't want it to just be centered on certain teams you got talk about your other your it's you your you want your other teams to be seen I can see if ESPN doesn't want to talk about anybody else or ABC or CBS but you as the W should want to be a should want to promote other players and other other teams just to get the conversation going it's just crazy to me that they that they don't I mean the preseason thing threw me for a loop because how do you when it's in China or no I'm saying North Canada rather no when they had uh the aces who were the the returning Champs not even having their one preseason game that was available on league pass but you know it didn't make sense that too I was talking about the fact that the game The League the league pass game that I was referring to was the one that was in uh it was between Seattle and Los Ang Canada yeah and I'm like was that was that not on that wasn't on TV right that's funny that you that brought up the the the reason we're gonna talk that one of the questions I wanted to ask you is do you think the game should Global that's funny that you that's that's funny that we say that now I want to ask that that's hey how you how you doing Jordan how's it going hope everything she swish Taylor swi hating on Angel in the comments I don't know why they ha course that's what that's what's the that's the fun thing to do player haters ball y'all love her so much y'all love her ultimate hater is here the ultimate hater is here [Laughter] silly he talking about the comments the comments oh no he's just he's just being funny yeah but no I just think the W just doesn't and last year they didn't do much promoting either like I think I saw two maybe commercials like the only Reon I didn't hear about a lot of teams only because I was I was following the aces but I didn't hear about many other teams it was just aces in New York because that was like the the big uh right rivalry during last year so I mean the W definitely they suck at promotion so on that part yes but not not including I wouldn't say they they did a horrible job promoting cait mclark so I'm I'm g go with fiction so it said actually yeah no no yeah no I'm gonna go fact so the question was the WNBA mishandled its promotion to Caitlyn Clark this season fact fact fact fact fact fact I'm g go with a th% fact why if you have a lightning rod player like I'm list there's like I I'll give you four simple let's go with four simple reasons one you got a lightning rod player who attracts a lot of eyeballs that means what you have opportunities for a bunch of other people to get introduced to different players so let's start here when you have a game featuring Clark and a player that they need to know let's have a need to know this type of player segment and in introduc like they need to we talked about this Jordan they need to make movies into their players so it's like nobody not nobody I'm not gonna say nobody knows their players that's not true it just people need to know who they are more and hear their stories more so it's like in addition to having this lightning rod player who everybody wants to know about have these movies built around these other players like which like what I said with Sheila swish that should have been a series hey this is blank she's also a really good player you know XYZ like they're they're you know I'm not sitting in these marketing rooms I haven't had that much thought about about it but there are ways that they can that's why I say let my first point was that they mishandled it it's because they didn't introduced other players in addition to Caitlyn with that two you have Caitlyn so it's like in addition to that we talked about we talked about the Olympics Not only was she talented enough from jump streak should have been there she's First Team all WNBA and it brings back to my point about we're going to talk about globalization the game and the global the global point in the game yeah you're missing out on the global aspect of the game so that's the second point so not only domestically did they mishandle it because they didn't make enough of a Missed Opportunities: WNBA Fails at Player Promotion emphasis on the other players in addition to Kaylin so I'm gonna repeat this they didn't make an emphasis enough on the other players in addition to Caitlyn right so it's like when they when the first time that these PE people the Casual fan or whomever is watching the game should not be the the week leading up to it or the game leading up to it or the minute the tip off oh who's the player I need to watch on the other team that's not when they need to know about these players they need to know a month and a half two months from Jump Street because I've been saying this for a minute orque has been great since college and this it's ridiculous that that no I'm sitting in I'm sitting the you know I'm a patron of these bars right I'm sitting the bar and I see somebody's talking to me about oh ER Erica I'm like her name is arque O B and if you don't know it get to know it because she will cook you and your favorite team so Erica's anagram forque so so it's like her identity secret identity so it it I again it it just like I felt like they missed the boat on that my my third and fourth points Jordan I'mma just leave it up to you uh I'mma let you actually speak it was fact or fiction do you feel like the WNBA I got I got I can speak on more but you agreed with what I said so then you so then you it's fact that they mishandled it or they didn't because you said they didn't mishandle Caitlyn Clark because you didn't talk about Caitlyn Clark you were talking about other players that was my point but I feel like they should use her in addition to to promoting the other player so it's like if you if you have there's no reason why it should just only so put Caitlyn plays against blank blank plays against blank you know what I'm saying like whatever if that's what you need to do to draw the eyeballs on this game and then have Pro files built around this and they should have it in general they should have it in general it's not like they shouldn't have it in general don't get me Twisted but I'm saying with just this aspect it's like why not include that as well so it's like have have those types of you know and again with this I don't want to hear that they not Rivals I don't care what y'all say this is Magic and bird like I like I love them both I love watching them both honestly and it's like as much as they try to downplay it for the media for whomever it's like play into that you know what I'm saying if you're if you're the NBA or the WNBA or whomever it's like people want to hear this even if it's not true amongst both of them which is quote unquote not but nobody can sit there and tell me if if if Angel ree ain't making the playoffs these comments are gonna go crazy so don't tell me it ain't no rivalry between the two of them in their fan bases or whomever you want to make it there there it's like there whatever word is not saying is not there there's some type of word that that's attributed you know buding rivalry friend like whatever word that yall want to use I don't I don't know what word to attribute but whatever sit in Jord I'll let you cook the WNBA mishandled Caitlyn Clark's entering the W like inaugural Beginnings juster nor when they she got into the I'll put this up on the chat I mean they definitely mishandled the impact that Caitlyn Clark has made you know I mean from her not being on the Olympic team from the fever I mean the you know it it it just occurred to me today when we step back and think about it if the question is has the W and a like failed sort of the impact of Caitlyn Clark the answer is obviously yes the only people that keep it going are sort of shows like this the people whether they are in Caitlyn Clark's camp or Reese's Camp these are the people that are sort of promoting the game it's like the Grassroots people you know I think Caitlyn Clark is the Rookie of the Year you know unanimously anyone that disagrees with me though those are the people that are promoting the game the people that are disagreeing with me it's like it's like the lital promoting the game yeah you are promoting the game like everyone that thinks Angel ree is Rookie of the Year is promoting the game so it's literally the literal people not the WNBA that's promoting the game um uh Cheryl swoops is promoting the game you know like she's promoting the game you know um by by by by her comments it's like it's literally everybody but like the higher ups of the WNBA that are helping bring eyeballs onto the game first things first first take all these talk shows gills Arena these are the people that are like building up the sort of storylines I I I just feel like so much more could have been done to sort of harness this lightning rod because there's a world in where no one cares anymore in three years can you imagine that like I I saw this picture of WNBA Arenas like 3 years ago where they were only like 25% capacity versus a Indiana uh fever game which is like at 100% capacity the lights are super bright it's it's just an incredible atmosphere you know I mean what if no one cares in three years you really have to strike when the iron's hot because you know America's uh uh taste changes you know I mean do you guys remember WNBA Rivalries: Why We Need to Lean Into the Drama like like were you guys paying attention to feder and AD doll in like 2006 2007 dude everyone could not stop watching watching this thing you know I mean things things things go in and out of of it's It's Not Guaranteed that there's going to be continuous growth I I just wish that the WNBA had sort of harnessed this lightning rod while it's happening I don't think that they may y go we you I'll let you go no I would say maybe I'm misunderstanding the question or I'm I'm seeing it different because I still think that y'all are saying that they should have used her more to promote other people that's what you're saying not her being promoted bball yes absolutely okay promoting her promoting her and promoting her and her cohort of of players the people that have been sort of I want to say forgotten but Asia Wilson could have been promoted more in the last five years and we could use Caitlyn Clark as a sort of catalyst to that's it to bring that's it that's it I mean we've been saying that but I mean that's pretty much the same like well that's the same thing I kind of been saying like yeah they they I just think they suck at promotion just they still haven't they still haven't gotten it together they still don't know because I mean it shouldn't take this long like you said people should know who who Asia Wilson is she didn't just start I mean she's playing crazy now but she didn't just start being this good player or a Stewie or you know a Sabrina or somebody like that and I just think that they just didn't realize what was coming and hopefully they uh understand what's still to come with these next couple of Seasons with with these rookies coming in that maybe they can broaden their Horizon and like like you said catch lightning in the bottle be able to use it you know the correct way I don't know I just I don't have a whole lot of faith in just just just one more quick point that yeah Rob and jumari have kind of touched on a little bit over the last couple couple of weeks is that these WNBA players are so like inviting and interview they they the the sort of connection between the media and the fan SL fans and the actual players it's pretty close you know like like access to them is pretty close the fact that you could get your T-shirt signed by all of them is pretty close or almost all of them but like but like they're willing to talk to you and there is there's that disconnect in like the n we're like bro try to get 5 minutes with LeBron like you will never ever ever get 5 minutes with LeBron you know what I'm saying so there's this sort of like um human you know like like like like like they're within Arms Reach you know that there's a there's a connection between the average person and them they don't get paid that much either which is because like I looked up their you know so they're they're very relatable you know also nice I'm gonna say this you talking about within Arms Reach you sleeping on a plane and you you you hit you hitting Asia Wilson seat like yo move up you know like for real like think about that you talking about Arms Reach move up man yeah I don't care who you got a game against that's crazy I you know like so think about like you talking about relatable so it's you know yeah yeah and again they should be making airplane commercials like there's so many bro like I would man we would have had all of them on the airplane commercial it's only airb here but you know I'm only only airb here but still y don't get mad at me still yeah I try to get shot like The Whistleblower the boring the boring the boring man I don't want the boring man to cover me I man no they they keep coming up missing so you might I don't want to say too much the B I don't want the ball man what you GNA say go to nothing it's just uh yeah it's just I I don't know I mean there's still the playoffs hopefully they could capitalize on that because there's some interesting story lines that are about to happen in there I was gonna write this speaking of playoffs is this the most well do you think this the most interesting playoffs in most recent I'm not gonna say that in fact and fiction but I mean in your to up to your recent memory I was gonna put I ain't GNA say yes but I'm I'm just lean closer to yes we're bord if anybody want Ian I me I think more eyes are watching so yeah it probably might be more exciting for other people but I mean I've I've watched since 97 so I've seen some some good some good uh playoff um games and stuff like that and series and Rivals so I wouldn't say this the most exciting one but I mean it's people are behind it so the the excitement and stuff just of the spirit the fans as a whole is probably there we're gonna have to have a Moro Sports media watch party you know for the playoffs yeah yeah just get the family together Miss do you think well we you missed that last topic but I think we we're I think we're pretty good we solid on that I think we're we're good on that one I think we we're consensus that let me ask you this we'll start off with you Jordan we go because we're we're gonna pull up our over under s over under over under so AIA Wilson right now is 91 points away from becoming the first ever well she probably is yeah she is no she's first ever WNBA player to have a th000 points to achieve this feat wow she would need 13 points per game in her next seven games now sh I think we're all in consensus to 13 points per game so I'm gonna go let's let's let's go over under 22 points per game for Asia Wilson to break this record and become the first player to get a thousand it'll leave her with a, 100 and like two points Las Vegas Aces they told me that over really oh bro she's gonna crush it I think there's also a sense of players in the WNBA when they know they're close to a record they're getting the record you know Caitlin Clark was one rebound away she got that triple double re dude like Reese needs that rebound she's getting the rebound you know uh I I think AIA Wilson's gonna be the same way and I hope she does it because she's having one of the greatest years I've ever seen bro she's she's something different you going you going as as Wilson to over you going to overb yeah over over I mean she's very hard to guard so no Fanbase Growth: WNBA’s Strategy to Diversify & Expand matter what's going on with the team she's going to get get her points I mean she she's almost getting 40 as it is right now her last what five six games she's 36 points a game every so every answer is yes with her I'm assuming did y'all did y'all see her and B at a bio at the um in Miami for the when he got keep to the city he got a key to the city as I'm not in your business girl I'm staying out of your business girl it's me and you shout out to shout out to bante he got a key to Wade County yeah D County right is that what it was Wade it's Wade I thought somebody said Dade on online yeah wa y gotta waade and a DAT they just oh join Wade County yeah they misspelled it there's not a d County in in Florida we don't have like I don't I don't understand why say that though it's kind of misspelled just like Dwayne Dwayne it's Miami D that's what it is it's it's Miami Dade right but but it's misspelled amongst everyone it's it's w a you oh when they just call it date correct correct oh that's crazy it's a consensus dat know because the city the city had a name change back in about 2006 and then right around when uh D way to beat the Mavericks some somehow the the city's name changed so it's uh you know okay well yeah but yeah he got the key to the city with some other olymp Olympians yes that and I mean speaking of Olympians we got future Olympian in the building I'mma go over under over under five points six events sporting events for Paige Beckers in the next because she's just literally been on a summer tour everywhere what at the US Open that she's gonna be at more sporting events correct I'm gonna go over five I'm gonna go over I'm picking the over that school has started right I'm picking the over Pi the over she I love me some P She I'm picking the over that's why she gonna fit perfectly in LA with them Sparks shout out to I mean I love Paige but if she's in school now they're about to start practicing and doing games I don't think she's going to beat many places she'll make she'll make sure she's somewhere in the next she'll find a way she'll find a way I'm gonna go under just because I need her focused I'mma say over yeah I'm G say over she's is she a this her senior year Focus I think she graduated already she's just taking some classes and playing I want her look we look I want her in tiptop shape don't get hurt again now wait you're the one that's talking about you don't like people doing extra stuff when it's time for to play games now you now you want her traveling around the US when she got games to play but yall know how this the same thing with angel I don't mind when they travel I don't mind when she impairs doing this or not I don't mind her shooting the podcast my only thing again when you in practice I don't want to see you playing with balloons I want to see you putting the work in yeah but since they played with balloons they've been what seven seven and two they've been seven and two since they played with balloons they got theot they're the hottest team right now since they played with balloons you still mad about that I'm not mad about it I was listen balloons bro they said it bons what is with balloons they said it was before practice they said it I feel like the Chicago Sky gotta play with some balloons now too everybody your point is true because you said they gonna play better because of it and Christy sides talked about the chemistry that they built she said that the team didn't know each other and the fact that all of them were were on break together they got to sit there and talk to each other and blah blah blah blah play defense Etc she said that Caitlyn said that they had to Play Def defense which is why they had to change a lot quicker and um so it just every it was like again I told you what Kelsey and her playing together it's like the perfect storm you know the perfect storm so you could see that they got their chemistry on the court off the court you know but the Chicago again the Chicago Sky had a talent show off the court so it's like they did they had a talent show off the court bro how the hell are all these players graduating in like three years bro I had she had a CO year so she she's just taking her covid year and year yeah you can take classes quicker there's so many different way to do that you could take summer classes because I think Haley van lith is a grad student right still playing her last she got her Masters already yeah see Miss see Miss TC shout out to bro that's nuts so that but yes so I mean yeah I'm going under she be I'll take over Pig do you so speak I mean we kind of answered this one but let's let's get into this then let go into this we're gonna pull up in our debates so I'm I'm gonna find this debate segment for everybody right quick so let me see pull up the first debate question does it involve Cheryl swoops no I'm just playing you I mean if you want to this let's talk about that's like my Aunt I call her like my auntie so shout out to Auntie Cheryl so shout out to Auntie char like I already like I'm met sh sh so she's a you a hear no bad words for me about sh I'll say this she because and I'm talk you you see me I met Nancy liman I'm talking to Nancy liman so it's like it's crazy Stephen so when I see when I see the ogs all fighting each other it's like Civil War I'm like everybody's allowed to have their own opinion about the game and that's okay it's okay it's okay you know it's okay but like I always say like you know I like to base everything based on fact but it's like okay if you feel one way put it on the facts on it or whatever if you feel another way put the facts on it whatever like I'm good with it but it's like it's the same way when people say Angel's trash I'm like how can you tell me Angel's trash no fact no metric no anything says anything about her leading to those words so it's like now you're just hating so it's like you can't it's like can you really just say that or do you really have something to validate what you're saying and if you are then say it and that's okay but if you have a difference of opinion that's okay it's like so I I really do hate to see that the two of them are like beef in I hope the gri you know you know I hope the best works out between everybody obviously I just I just find it so it's so different to hear personal conversations get Spilled Out in the media like this like you don't really see that too often you know like uh private conversations kind of spill out in real time will yeah I know D changed he changed everything bro he really did it's just it's just it's just interesting because it's like right or wrong like you like can you remember the last time such a a long conversation was kind of spilt out on social media like this regarding something super personal about friendship or it's like a Charles Barkley Michael Jordan type conversation you know what I'm saying when he criticized the Bobcats drafting you know it's seriously it's like when's the last time something so personal was kind of played out in the media like that yeah and I just can't remember right now I don't either and that's why I I don't like the two I'm saying you know oh I'm good of cheating my life or not other one say I'm like come together because like they like they both are in Dallas at these games you know what I'm saying so it's like now it's you know like oh my God come on like we let's come let's have a come to Jesus moment let's have a come to Jesus moment yeah that's half though so hopefully they can work out for the best so but yeah again and then y'all hate all these comments in Miss in Miss whoops like it's crazy she she it's just dumb y got to stop with these stupidity comments like these fan bases you know it's just nonsense it's nonsense man it's just nonsense I I pray for these people on Twitter Diamond the shields praying for you DJ Caren like all these it's just so crazy man it's a it's a game like you said Jordan and I I ended on this Julius Irving punch bird in the mouth and they kept it moving boom yeah the whole the whole city of Boston might have hated bird or whatever I mean hated Urban whatever but it's not yeah right social media era so it's like everything you everything is is heightened and and way out of blown out of proportion when it comes to social media speaking speaking of social media I'm going to read this right quick has there you go so this is one of our debate topics so if you want to get into this a little bit more but it says has the WNBA truly made progress in diversifying its fan base actually no it's a little different or are most marketing efforts still f failing to reach key demographics well what are the key demographics you tell me it's like who do you want to who do you want to I I can't I don't want to say something that might be deemed as disrespectable whatever but it's like that's the question who are they trying to attract who are who is who exactly who is the key demographics in the situation who are they trying to bring on that's a great question well I don't have numbers in front of me but if I had to imagine the core base of the WNBA are probably like I don't know like 17 to 35 female minorities if I had to guess you know um but I mean I I feel like everyone of all Races and you know genders are interested in the WNBA because the stories are so compelling right now you know so I think they're they're tapping into a lot of key demographics um I think I think there's growth across the board you know I mean as as a dentist I talk to my patients about the WNBA all the time and you know I live in a very rural part of Florida so I'm talking to like old white people retired white seriously like and and and and they know who Caitlyn Clark is you know and and they know who Angel Reese is and they know who Asia Wilson is and that and it kind of falls off from there but like they know who these people are so I it's it's reach it's really slowly reaching them um so I don't know that's my personal take on it I would say it's made progress because now obviously you got a whole different you got a whole bunch of different fan bases um you know watching the league so I'd say it's made progress but I mean like I still like they're honestly still failing we kind of already talked about it a little bit because like they could be they could be propped up a lot more so um what we going to say B my fault what are you going to say I mean I wasn't going to say anything I don't I don't really know like like uh Jordan was saying I don't know the the numbers or who they're trying to go after um but I mean I think there's always progress there of of growing your your fan base um but I I don't know if they're the marketing efforts I just don't they're never there they're never there so it's hard to say if they're making progress I think the progress was WNBA Marketing Needs a Revamp: Here’s How made from the college kids um like every the fan base from college coming over and actually following them because it it was once where you follow the people in college but once they went to the W didn't it would fall off you didn't want you didn't really care what they were doing and now it's like we're actually watching them play in in college and all the Fan Fair is there and they're selling out there and they got all the you know there's celebrities there and now that fan base is actually following them to their professional you know their professional team and then now those teams are reaping the benefits of that um so I mean I think it is reaching a younger um base but it's also reaching more like I would say families CU families like are are the ones that's college at school watching you know these kids through these four years and the dad is there and the dad went there the mom went there now the kids go there now they're all watching their favorite players and they're following them now to hear so it's a progress I mean they're making progress but are they going to capitalize off off that I don't know I like that that's a because it's true when you go to these games it is a lot of families and it still is kind of a family friendly show um but let me ask you this though so why do you feel like it fell off between the two of them like meaning like watching a player through college and then like when they hit the W like I for me personally because I I was a person that fell off from watching The W because I've started watching the 97 but it was the time where I wasn't watching and then I came back to it but it was access um to be able to to see them like I was I mean I sound it's going to make me sound old but I'm watching I had to look through the newspaper to get the box scores and stuff like that because where else was I going to be able to see them like I need to know where where the Sparks were in the standings like literally I'm like writing it down like yes young people there were these things called newspapers um but that's how I I mean I used do that all time a lot young people but yeah I used to have to like track them by their standings and how many games they needed to win by looking at the newspaper and I would see in the sports section like get my reviews or the updates on the games and stuff like that and then once it came off of like National TV because I think it used to be on ABC so at least on Saturdays Sundays I can watch the games but after that I had to have like paid cable and for a while I didn't have that I didn't I I stopped paying for cable I just had regular you know TV um so I couldn't Accessibility Wins: Watching WNBA Just Got Easier watch the games and then they just weren't that accessible unless you you know went on wnba.com to see what what they were doing after a while it was just like too much for me to try to keep up with because I'm I'm living life I have a life that I'm doing I can't just spend my whole time on the computer so it became less accessible for me so I lost track of the people like I knew I knew Candace Parker I watched her in college but I couldn't follow her whole career because I just didn't have access to watch The W and just now that there's more access I was able to get back on and you know start watching it again but that's kind of why I fell off I don't I think people just didn't want to put the work in that you had to at one point to follow the W I mean that's from my point of view I don't know what you guys think I think yeah that's that's a really great you made a really great yeah now it's I'm gonna agree with you because I never heard the I never heard um access point I would say a huge part of it would be access access were you g say Jordan but yeah I I mean yeah that was really I have this I don't know like tell me what you guys think about this Physicality Debate: Time to Soften Up or Let Them Play? but I have this suspicion that more people would watch the WNBA if the game was softer if everybody played more like Caitlyn Clark and everybody played more free flowing less aggressive SE that for years I mean less less less physical like less physical gameplay like kind of like how the because it's like it's like the WNBA is kind of stuck in like the mid 2000s NBA but what people want to see from the WNBA is actually like the current NBA and and what people want from the NBA the current NBA they actually want the '90s 2000s NBA yeah the current WNBA so it's like it's like I think America secretly wants a more feminine WNBA game but a more physical male game slightly more physical male game way more femin feminine softer female game I'm about that I wouldn't say all that what I was okay so that I ain't gonna say but what I was gonna say is this to up to your point the reason why I want I'm not saying I want less physicality in the W I don't care if there if it's IAL or not what I do want is them to call the foul more right right let's just start there call the foul if if it's a I don't care if they're shooting 400 times in a game now there's no reason why games and teams should be having 13 points in a quarter are and they're going Chicago they're going to the like freaking foul bro like why are we watching this this this archaic form of basketball right right and then it goes so but it goes back to saying okay yeah if somebody's running off a screen and they're shooting a three or whatever and they get hit call the foul it's like just call the foul game should be in the0 like Caitlin was saying we missed layups which is why they didn't get to 110 but it's like okay cool other teams aren't even they're still cracking 60 to 70 points points WNBA Media Coverage: What’s Lacking and How to Fix It what that's not gonna get it with what eras come on now we got call the foul call the foul so it's like that thing is like okay freedom of movement calling fouls getting the game more sped up getting more threes getting more players that could get downhilling kicking like I mean I mean that's why that's that's why football succeed I mean kind of had an uptick in Serge also because scoring went up because they removed head hunting Devon's bfix of the world you know like all this kind of stuff take this out yeah yeah like make it safer for the quarterbacks is a great quarterback and and I think personally that's why baseball's struggling because scoring is like down batting averages are down you know it's strikeouts and home runs like that's the way people are building teams now based around saber metrics and it's just like it's like these these games are just not as interesting pictures a game type you yeah like what what what is this yeah it don't make sense so I I think the WNBA has a NE it's not optimized right now to draw fans into the game I guess not yet I mean I'm not gonna say that but not yet because they just I just feel like like I said we're just need to there are players that are pushing the the the Baton forward but it's like it's got to it's got to move forward the game has got to kind of but it's I love the Product Where It's At so I'm not like I'm not gonna say all the product but I just wish the rest just call the freaking foul and get the games maybe that's all it needs maybe that's all it needs just I don't want to curse but just call the foul Bo you got something to say on this one no not really I mean I agree with what I mean what you're saying I don't I don't know about I mean I like the physicality I don't know I just I'm an SEC Watcher from you know college it's physical over there um I like that it's physical in the W but I mean I think it's it's um there's a piece of the pie you want the flashy passes you want the high scoring but you also want to see that they battle too and that you know it's not some like Ticky tack they're not running around in tennis skirts like they're athletes they're playing basketball um is going to probably be physical like you know if they're playing soccer or rugby or whatever it is like you know I know people may want a certain thing from from women that they you know they don't want to they don't want to look at it and say like this is like the NBA but I mean athlete as an athlete it shouldn't matter male or female that they're here to play ball so on that part I don't you know I don't really agree with it having to be less physical but I do think I agree with um DJ just about the following like it just needs to be consistent if you're going to have one team that gets all the files that way they can score all the points and get all that stuff and then you don't do that to other teams it m it makes it kind of boring to watch because then you're just sitting there like one team is at 89 the other team barely get you know 30 because they never got you know I mean I I guess that's kind of I guess I'm looking at it like results based it's like if you could make that type of physicality and not get called for a foul the game is too physical and needs to be softer you know what I'm saying it's like if you could make those things and and not have a call a foul on you the game is too physical absolutely hold the standard that's my point we don't hold the NBA to this like why I'm like what are we doing I'm like bro yes absolutely I can't say that enough you can't be letting them get beat up and you're just like not even seeing it people get their headband knocked off in front of you and you're like know good call go go ahead and play and they're like I'm bleed th up everybody she just get off I me was one point where Asia literally was bleeding she had a black eye and a cut across their nose and they had not called who wants to watch that bro luk complains about you take your glasses off put your glasses back on Shannon but it's like like like bro Luca gets like scratched he he literally turns to the rest where's my foul Harden jump I'm not actually going to shoot I'm G lead into you so I can get these three free throws it's like dude like what like it's it the WNBA you know relatively is like a tougher game than the NBA you know so it's like I don't know you know because because you make and get away with it it's too physical you know for sure for sure they need to call well not everybody some people breathe the wrong way and they get a file called on them but it just depends they're just not consist and they don't flant no I've seen people get tackled on the court and they do not call a flagrant I people get tackled on a court and they do not call a FL are I've seen somebody try to attack somebody's knees on the court and take out somebody's like I've seen these things I'm like what are we this is this is insane no no no no no this this this this this Ain will never they they push Joker in the back the man out the league for a you know what I'm saying like like no they don't this is a no no they got to change they gota again freedom of movement because they're G to have they're gonna have the committee they're going to when it's they're that's gonna change because they're gonna Usher the WNBA into a new era they're gonna the game's too slow we got to speed this up boom bo boom like right that there's no way that they could stay like this especially if one of your as you bring in more of these players these revolutionary players these generational players they they're not going to let them get hurt they that ain't gonna happen yeah that ain't gonna happen so they G that's GNA get switched up but yeah I would Marquee Players: Are They Helping or Hurting the League? absolutely change that up I was ask you does the w because let me ask yall this there's a few more we got a few more debates um does the wnba's Reliance on a few Marquee players hurt the league such as Caitlyn Clark and Angel Reese or does it boost interest in women's basketball overall what are y'all think shortterm games well go ahead no you can go ahead no I'm just gonna say I don't think it hurts the competitiveness I don't think the players I mean they're there to play I don't think they care about who's the Marquee player or not they're just trying to win games but as far as the viewership is concerned they do rely um heavily on those I mean which they I mean that's what you guys were saying earlier they should be relying on them to get viewership and interest in it so um I don't think they do enough of like we said earlier spreading that out but I don't think that hurts um it being competitive I don't I don't see how that would but I'll see what y'all say what I mean like hurt the competitiveness by relying on Angel Reese and caitlinn Clark like I mean I guess I don't understand the question so the better question is do you feel like they're missing the boat by only promoting the two of them or just focusing the spotlight on the two of them that's how the NBA and WNBA I mean the NBA kind of has always done it right like short-term gains it's going to be real tough when LeBron retires because we don't have the next one yet you know I mean can you imagine when Angel Ree and and Caitlyn Clark retire we'll probably have the next one and JuJu and Paige are already already there but it's like you know it it just hurts so much more when these people leave the game though when you put all your eggs in one basket so but as far as the B I mean but that's that that's exactly why I said that that's exactly why I said that so it's like if you're only putting it in the two I mean so okay why do you feel like that the disconnect is there between I don't feel like there is though but it's like okay you're saying if if okay let's say that both of them wen't playing today Angel and Caitlyn boom they both get you know something boom what I'm playing okay how how do you why do you feel like the other players in the league aren't able to like I guess carry or hold or you know manage the next the part like why able to like kind of like I guess uplift or keep the league intact because I think it's because I'm not saying you don't think that I'm just saying why do you think well I I think because America hasn't built enough of a relationship with AJ Wilson and Erica ogumbo for years you know what I'm saying like they were Angel ree Caitlyn Clark Paige Haley you know we've known these people for a couple years now you know so it's like we we kind of follow their story and when they're not there we don't you know the the the WNBA has trouble introducing new viewers to the existing great storylines you know like like like it's just it's just like it's difficult to catch up on Briana Stewart and her move to New York and it's just they don't do a good job of bringing these stories to us for us to feel emotionally attached to them and when you're not emotionally attached to these storylines or these players you just don't watch I mean but the question is why that's that's that's I I don't know that's my only that's my only thing but but you brought up you brought up a a question when you you mentioned media coverage I'm sorry mentioned um Erica not Erica you me I forget I forget the the the term you used but it had something to do with mediate coverage but I wanted to ask you is this so do you feel like it's actually improving amongst the spe because I'm the reason why I'm pausing because I'm thinking aboutt Auntie swoops and then I get Nancy L in so but do you feel like media coverage I guess amongst the league is is improving I know it's changing do you feel like it's improving or do you feel like it's still not I guess doing the WNBA Justice I think that it's improving for sure because people are having stronger opinions about things and it's bringing you know Gils Arena actually talked about this where they were like it's like you're bringing in people and they might be ignorant about it but as long as but as long as discourse is happening about the league it's an improvement overall because we get familiarized with all these people and overall I mean for example like first uh uh Nick Wright on his podcast he was talking about like AEL Olson is for sure MVP and the fever probably can't beat like three or four teams but he was at least critically like you could tell he had at least critically watched a bunch of games so the Discord will improve around the sport by just kind of being in it peripherally which I mean progress has to start somewhere you know good point that's a good point I B I was do you feel like media covers is improving in the W or do you feel like it's still lacking they need to they need to do better media cover as far as just talking about the W or showing games and stuff or do you mean like the rasat Taz at the shindig in Big D I was there I was there when that happened I know I heard you laughing in the in the audio that was so silly that but that person has done that before right that's what they do he did it to Braun he did it to Braun he did it to Braun Braun answer Braun answered back James Harden but they they ain't like that it's too much [ __ ] rasat Taz bro um but I mean that's why I wanted to start laugh I see her like media coverage you know the fact you see crazy stuff coming in like I guess that the game's growing I mean it's true it's getting there but it's not there yet I mean I think um media coverage for the W is very like uh pigeon ho hold and it's like very like like this they're not broad enough covering enough things um there's only one show on TV that covers the W WNBA weekly it's a weekly show and they try to fit as in much information as they can in like a half hour 45 minutes um and then they just replay it it's on NBA TV they replay it every other day and it's like the same it's the same show for a week they keep playing it's like that's old information because like yeah it was new on Monday but we're Thursday now we can't still be talking about that same thing you know why though it's because and it goes back to scheduling it's so it's next game next game well no but what I'm saying is we need more than a weekly show I mean they talk about WNBA on NBA today I watched that but that's a segment that they they bring up so as far as media coverage they're doing what I guess they can do within the time allowed and you know what they're what they have and there's internet shows as well um that ESPN has um that we'll talk about the W but the media coverage as far as talking about them definitely needs to be be out there because like you were saying earlier there needs to be like story about these players and things like that when they're know during the games or during commercials or something like that and when I was watching WNBA weekly like um Renee Montgomery she's one of the hosts who used to play for Atlanta Dream but now she's one of the owners she actually did like a whole thing on like who is who is uh Tina Charles when she made the became second alltime scoring and did you guys really know about Meer Mo and did you know about this person and like she has like these segments that she does where you're really getting educated but no really able to see it like unless you have NBA TV and then it's just a weekly thing so they can work on that I mean I know there's a lot of you know red tape and things that to do you know like they can't just say they want a half hour show every day and think someone's going to give them one I guess you know it's a lot of stuff that goes into it but the media coverage can be a little bit better right now it's like I don't I didn't hear what you were saying Jordan but it is a lot about discourse that's being talked about and a lot about which you know drama drama you know gets the numbers there drama gets the clicks and stuff like that but um if we just had a little bit more information about the stuff that's not drama like mixed into there so they do know who Asia Wilson is and they do know who uh Kennedy Carter is or they do know who uh Baga Laney is or you know stuff like that like mix into that that would be that would be great in growing the game and and get get that stuff out there for other fans that aren't just stuck on whatever drama is going on in W right now yeah they do better I I agree um I just think yeah because I'm like sometimes disc a lot of the time the discourse is outside of basketball oh this person bumped this person bumped this person this person was hyping up a crowd this I'm like oh my God I'm like I'm like just just who cares you know what I'm saying not like who cares in a bad way but it's just like okay they did that mov the needle that's what they I'm like is it this is it this in the league but then I okay so one of the things that's funny I wanted to bring up but it's like why is Twitter such a toxic Place why why is it such a toxic place because I'm like have you been on threads easy now I can't even get on threads okay is that like twit longer or something like that it's it's um Instagram's version of threat of Twitter um if You' been on if you're on WNBA threads that's where it gets is hot and heated you think Twitter is crazy is it is it is it like Reddit have you been on R bro I don't I don't know how I've never been on Reddit rdit is SE bro reddit's the sewer of the internet bro like it's the wor it's the worst social media period anywhere where you can speak you know speak put your opinion out there in how many characters that's it's just going to be but what I was saying is I'm like okay so so I guess because I'm like somebody about to drive the Taca to fight somebody on Twitter so I'm like the NBA Twitter TW has always been crazy WNBA Twitter is just like y wow it's a Hil hole over there bro for a good time go on Reddit bro I I for a good time dude I went to look up something about electrical sockets or something I posted something bro I got so much hate from all these electricians on the internet telling me how stupid I am wow bro bro bro you can't ask anyone anything on internet you know speaking of internet and asking I'm I'mma open up the chat if anybody got something to say we'll do this real quickly anybody wants something to say I'm G let y'all chime in for a minute or two Etc but um other than that I mean we about to close out other than that I might drop off just because I gotta feed my dog that's say Shoutout to Our Favorite WNBA Teams & Stars! we about to close out so anybody any if you have final thoughts nope it's always y'all know how I feel it's always go Sky Go Aces we're going uh my a is are going to go I'm putting it out there we're going to go on the running streak the rest of these seven six seven games I think the the the sky if we can get Kennedy back and she's healthy like DJ was saying I think we have a good chance of um holding down that eighth spot and and making it you know a solid thing like nobody can catch us um but I'mma root for them whether they make it or not I'm so I'm so proud of of Chicago and what they've been able to do so far this season when they weren't even supposed to to be uh anywhere outside of 12th um they've done so much they're rebuilding new team new coach and they're fighting for their lives to stay in eighth place while you know dealing with all the stuff that they're dealing with so I'm proud of them no matter what so go Sky Go Aces uh my closing thoughts y'all don't want to play the Indiana Fever you better guard that's theam to play we've been talking about her all day if y'all don't want to play they keep playing like this you're not gonna want to play them that's the only thing I'm G say I'm but it's still I I'll go Minnesota still in Las Vegas two teams beat and then I'm gonna go and follow by New York City those streets I don't think Seattle Seattle's done I think Seattle Indiana can handle Seattle truthfully I think they can handle Seattle it's that means Kelsey Mitchell and CC gota out score JW and Skyler and I think that that could be done and then the factor is Aaliyah Nea I'm a Le NECA um you got Liz Li is GNA win that match up between Jordan so yeah I will go Indiana and then you got Lexi who's like yeah I'm GNA go Indiana how far Sun yeah what about the sun bro Conneticut Connecticut I think Indiana figured out I love I had I had Connecticut early going to the finals um but I want to see the seating if for for Connecticut it just I feel like the seating got to be the right way because they can they can play defense they're versatile they can match up with any team like they got four of the best players in the league with obviously D Alysa Gana and then you have bon best so you got you got uh you have them so I think I think they honestly can match up and they should they should have won a ring you know you know they played they've come close they're in the finals they're in the finals so it's like yeah it's you know they need to have the ability to I don't know man I don't know with teams when they end up losing I feel like they take a step back and then another team is has so you know I just Circ life you get so I don't know man I don't know that that Connecticut Sun roster is good so I'm hoping that they kind of pull through too honestly what you say nothing my closing thoughts follow moral Sports media you know where you get uh unfiltered uh WNBA content you know no holds bars we have real debates about the WNBA you know um and we don't just we just don't you know talk about only the the the flagrant fouls and the the crazy conversations when you know people are on the treadmill and they got to get off the treadmill to have tough phone calls you know you know we we uh we we we talk about everything here so you you know follow moral Sports media oh and watch our watch our interview with Odyssey Sims Odyssey Sim we got more coming up we got more coming up for yall appreciate it y'all take care
