    People love drama. Remember the ratings Honey Boo Boo and the Kardashians were getting?

    This is the value of marketing. It's great for the league. I love it

    Well apparently this lady started out playing really well and then played a bit better and then decided to keep playing well after the league decided she wasn’t good enough to play in the Olympics. Now she seems to have developed a bad habit of turning the ball over.

    The league didn't decide she wasn't good enough for the Olympics. She wasn't able to try out for the Olympic team because she was busy playing in college. She had never even practiced with the Olympic team.

    How good she was or was not wasn't really a consideration.

    It should have been a consideration. Along with her popularity.

    I know brother. It was a joke. Maybe a bad one but a joke nonetheless.

    As much heat as Team USA has taken for it I feel like it's worth pointing out.

    I wouldn't even say it's a bad joke. It's just worth pointing out is all.

    A'ja Wilson just set the all-time WNBA single-season scoring record (with 4 games to go), and is 28 behind Reese for the all-time single-season record for rebounds. With all the attention CC has received, it feels like A'ja's historic season has been under-recognized.

    CC just set the single-season assist record.
    Oh never mind, I forgot about the turnovers. No big deal move along.

    It's kinda funny you say that, because this is the same kinda stuff that people (rightly) were critical of Scoot about.

    I'm sure they'll both improve. Swoops had a worst assist to turnover ratio her rookie season.

    Did Scoot set a single season assist record?

    No, but that's kind of irrelevant.

    Although she never wanted it, people on the right considered Clark their great white hope. White and straight. Tried to portray her as fragile while lady pushed and shoved by black thugs. Total bullshit.

    Then she liked Taylor Swift post endorsing Harris and encouraging people to vote. Clark has been bombarded with hate mail.
