Of course, folks like Shaq have also suggested that Reese should win ROTY. Again, I disagree completely and think Clark is the clear leader. Are you suggesting that Shaq is a racist for disagreeing with you? |

If she's better then call her better. If she's not, then don't. There's only one conclusion if the first is true. |

The hate comes from several people. Those who insist she doesn't represent the culture (yes, this is being said). And I kind of sense theres almost a peer pressure for people like staley or juju Watkins to call Reese roty when they are way too basketball smart to actually believe that nonsense. It's not even close. Because her supporters get roasted in these inner circles Now in my honest take... Angel Reese is a very good player. There are lots of illogical and racist takes that want her to be terrible. It's a shame but thid is what those media trolls want. They race bait and then play victim when the worst elements take the bait. angels a solid defender and elite rebounder and she plays tough. But this is like comparing Andre Drummond to Steve Nash. |

Btw you know something is off when Vegas has Clark at -1800 odds to win Roty yet this inner circle are pretty much unanimously giving it to Reese. They're not even hiding what they're trying to do

I'm also not going to suggest that Staley or Shaq are racist because they disagree with my take. |

Bro she had 19 dimes in her last game, breaking a league record. 19 assists in one game is ****ing bonkers.

There are a few things to recognize with Staley. First she was part of the decision to exclude Clark from the Olympics where it's been widely speculated was due to the team not wanting that kind of attention. Secondly, its not farfetched at all to guess she prefers Reese because she "represents the culture" or because she's worried about getting roasted for not voting for her. The first is borderline racist, the second is race driven peer pressure. If it were 1 or 2 people that would be one thing, but it's a representation of this weird isolated echo chamber where there is a consensus that Reese is roty and it is way more about how she represents the league than it is her actual play. |

This whole thing is like watching social division play out in real time. Troll wnba media sends out dog whistle that Clark has white privilege. The league refuses to accept her and even her teammates are bullied for being affiliated with her. Her fans start to resent other players and even her teammates. A bunch of Clark "fans" who don't even pay attention to the sport jump in and start firing back. Troll media doubles down on Clark having a racist fan base. Which is why a lot of support for things like rookie of the year has become tribal. For many it isn't about who the better player is, it's whose side you are on in this division.
And this is exactly what those media trolls wanted much as they want to play victim. It's why even activist media like espn have booted them from covering other sports. And it's a shame because this goes very different if they just embraced her from the beginning. |

19 assists should surprise nobody if you have been watching.
Hundreds of assists have been stranded on base so to speak. Her teammates getting better about converting them is the difference. So glad you know who isn't here to talk about turnovers and losses to try and diminish 19 assists in a game |
