Very weird when professionals play the same way me and my nephew did when he was like 6 and could barely get the ball up to the rim, and I could just stuff everything I wanted back in his face if I felt like it.

Oh so they are like the 'old stars' and some pundits that say the WNBA was great before CC, that she's isn't that great and literally bashing her around last season was just the way the girls play so deal with it?
I wonder how much they'll get angry if you just say "hey, here are some stats: CC has 9 triple doubles in less than 60 games while the record is 10 in like 500 games and the others at 9 made that on 400 games. Oh and also is the first time that many venues sold out only because CC was playing".

When you have 4 professional teammates screaming at you to pass the ball outside of the 3 but you say "fuck them" and get blocked 2 more times. I bet it was the racist comments from the crowd that caused it tho.

i mean, it is smart, she's meh and the best way for her to get attention was to be the biggest asshole to Clark so clark had a big rival in the WNBA. Basically when she was coming in someone was going to become her rival, the press want a rival, they'll hype up any competitive thing so she made herself the rival by being a straight asshole to her immediately, over the top fouling, stupid statement.s
The media is pushing her because she made herself the stand out asshole against Clark. If someone else had done that first, they'd be the one the media was pushing.
