3 dudes that hardly anyone knows and its been 3 days worth of Reese all over sports coverage. man that's impressive going viral with 3 nobodies and become the hot topic of conversation since sunday. for someone claiming well i haven't seen anyone triggered by it because I watch sooooo much sports media, you sure do like to put out a bunch of bs
Manufactured. Could be 3 weeks, still manufactured. The only thing that is remotely interesting is the First Lady's comments and the reactions from the LSU players. Reese was talking about not going to the White House and going to the Obama's instead, and not wanting to see the First Lady before the game because the President didn't pick them on his bracket. That's all interesting. Random dudes reacting to Reese doing something normal on the court is not.
Actually, it really ain't that interesting, but I understand the discussion and the possible politics.
random dudes is relative. they're clearly more relevant than you since these nobodies has caused a hot topic of conversation across sports outlets. to you it isn't. to others it apparently becomes a a conversation and over the court of multiple days. Just like you feel the first lady's comments is interesting. I couldn't careless about it. that's not interesting to me. who cares. see how that works
This whole narrative that Reese is being unfairly maligned is so silly. If anyone in a college or pro sports title game chased an opposing player around a field or court taunting them for 10 seconds after the game was over they would get put on blast too. What's even dumber is people trying to compare that to Clark taunting someone for a split second in the middle of a game as if they are equal examples of poor sportsmanship. But hey it's galaxy brain level behavior from a PR standpoint for the sport so good for them.
I loved it personally. Folks always talk about the game is way too buddy buddy now (NBA). Seeing some girls do it was pretty entertaining. I mean so long as it doesn't cross the line it's fair game to me. Maybe Reese kept rubbing it in but she just won a national title. Do your thing!
IMO, Caitlin Clark isn't Larry Bird. He was a bigger player who had an inside game, he didn't shoot from the parking lot and he didn't play the point (though he was an incredible passer). Bird also wasn't above-average athletically. Clark is a combination of Steph Curry and Steve Nash. As a scorer, she is Curry; as a facilitator she is Nash. Athletically, her ability to change direction leaves defenders looking stupid.
