She plays absolutely no defense and saves all her energy for offense
True but she was also required to have the ball for iowa every single possession.
Exactly
Sounds like every NBA player in the league these days.
That's not true at all. She just plays alongside janitors and can't afford to get in foul trouble or her team will lose by 60 every game.
Not hard to tell the Doug is the least liked in that room
Doug is a weirdo for this segment ngl.
Are you serious? Dude was wrong and Doug called him out.
@@tonyesquire5308 I saw it as him trying to flex on somebody beneath him but to each his own.
@@ShadyMike I see your point, Doug could've handled it better.
@@tonyesquire5308nah it just seems like Doug doesn’t want this to be a “thing” which is weirdo behavior
She is a 6 ft guard that's a really good ball handler which is equivalent to a guy in the NBA being a 65 guard she's going to be really good
Yeah I agree
Folks like u say shes a good ball handler yea against a weak defender so how do u explain her getting her pocket picked four times
Folks like u say shes a good ball handler yea against weak defenders but how do u explain her getting her pockets picked four times against South Carolina and Jacy Sheldon picked her pocket a couple of times against Ohio State
This dude said Catlin Clark is a better basketball player than Jimmer. 😂 Jimmer wasn't great in the pros, but come on dog. Respect for Doug for calling him out. 😂
He's saying compared to their genders, CC is better which is true. Obviously jimmer is better bc he's a dude.
@@Mr_Fairdale No, he didn't say that at all. This dude initiated a personal attack and got himself corrected.
@@tonyesquire5308 dude, you really think Doug thinks CC is better than Jimmer? Don't be daft. He he clearly meant CC is better compared to women than Jimmer was to men, which is true. Also where was the "personal attack "?
Doug's first co-commentator is a total downer. She'll be Tebow? There aren't questions about her fundamentals the way they questioned Tebow's ability to throw the ball. She will excel.
no one will ever know what happens to caitlin in her first wnba season because no one watches the wnba why did he spend time on this? it's like a tiktok video (semi) popular for like 2 weeks and then people move on
It's not her, Caitlin will no doubt be a superstar among other superstars of the WNBA, the problem is for almost 30 years not enough people like the product
I still don't know anything about the WNBA but to say Caitlin Clark ain't gonna raise the ratings of the WNBA is just madness...she doesn't need to be the best player...she just needs to be the most exciting player!...I really wish Paige Bueckers declared too but I guess its up to Caitlin and Reese now!
It could be like the dion sanders effect, interesting until they lose lose lose
I think she will tear up the league. She will be like Larry Bird in 1980. People forget all the "Great White Hope" hype when Larry was drafted by the Celtics. Many black fans like myself and also many players thought he would be a bust. He won rookie of the year and took the Celtics to the playoffs. They had only won a little over 30 games the year before. She will have the same success in the WNBA.
Its segments like this that show why women's sports is such an uphill battle, we should all be excited and try to see if the sport can get to another level...instead of predicting its downfall.
They’ve had the benefit of the doubt the last two decades. They need to earn it back. They also actively crap on viewers which makes them extremely unlikable. I hope she can change that but it’ll be an uphill battle.
No. You have to read between the lines. What they are really asking is whether Clark will be just another white basketball player who played well and received incredible hype in college but was mediocre or bad in the pros. Thus the comparison to players like Jimmer. I think she's going to be a great player in the WNBA.
Sam def quit after this 😂 Doug was right though 🗣
If she doesn't start on the olympic team, the WNBA if in trouble.
That was one of the most unlikable segments I’ve ever seen from a media personality.
I don't know, I can't handle much of Chiefs/Kelce/Swift stuff in the NFL again. Maybe NFL takes some little downturn in popularity, a small one, but maybe a little!
CC is not a better player than Jimmer. Women's basketball is not competitive to even close to the same degree that men's basketball is.
For women, the ball is too large and too heavy and the basket hoop too far and too high. So most of the female players have to shoot the ball from their chest like a 🐸 jumping. It's ugly to witness that even if the team is a champion team. I don't enjoy watching female basketball but it was fun to play.
@@yumitokushige8486 that might have been the most logical response a person might have hoped for
Well, Caitlin shot .462 at Iowa, Fredette shot .455. Caitlin was also playing with janitors with zero post-ability. Clark is already the best passer in college, imagine her playing with competent bigs?
@@willpomeroy7711 remind me. Who was defending her? Men or women? CC is FANTASTIC, but Jimmer against CC isn’t a comparison
@@davidkrueger9053 I mean, no one is arguing that. We're talking about 'better' in their respective college careers. Not 1 vs. 1 in real life.
she can pass...which will help her greatly...her ppg will prolly drop.....she will face better talent every game....so lets give her a chance....
Yeah I agree
Fox sports shows are not going to follow WNBA, are they?
I think you guys are underestimating the fever for Clark. I would bet money that when she has a game that goes up against an NBA playoff game, the viewership will be similar or even exceed the numbers of that specific NBA game.
That’s still isn’t saying much. The NBA hasn’t had good numbers in years. They’ve started to go up but historically it’s at a low point.
@@cotati76 You're making no sense. The WNBA ratings have been been well under 1M viewers. The low NBA ratings that you describe is still 10M viewers. So, if a Clark game matches that, it will be incredible.
@@TonyBeauford 10M people out of 340,000,000 isn’t anything to crow about. Thats terrible. That means 97% of the public couldn’t care less.
@@cotati76 You don’t compare the viewing number to the US population. You compare the number to other sporting events and tv shows. For example the World Series averages 9.1M viewers. An NFL games averages 17.9M. The Superbowl had 123.7M viewers, but that’s basically a US holiday.
@@TonyBeauford you have a point but I’m just judging it off of how many people used to watch basketball. It’s not close.
Not sure much carryover. If she's really good it will increase ratings, and make people want to go to more games, but I think women's basketball still on a pro level doesn't have much pull to hoops fans overall. If she's like Steph Curry could elevate the league somewhat.
Dude. You sound like a crazy person. Trying to make someone apologize over a basketball debate is a bit much. Fans shoot the sh_t all the time man. It's not that serious.
Iowa Sam... why is he there?
Juju is USC and just as popular
Doug is not watching women's basketball. She is a great passer aside from her fun to watch logo threes. iowa team just lack of size. South Carolina just simply outrebounded iowa both ends on the floor. just watch few indiana fever games then conclude afterwards.
Doug’s daddy must own the company
When do they talk about how small a Woman's ball is in comparison to a Men's ball?
Goodness she is hard to look at. That's supposed to be milk and cookies
The milk is spoiled and the cookies got over cooked
Shes not better than jimmer fridette
Doug. Do you have a woman? Why so much venom towards women’s hoop?
