WNBA’s MVP of All-Time Continues to be Constrained by Refs and Her Coach

WNBA’s MVP of All-Time Continues to be Held Back by Refs, Other Players and Her Coach

Another day – another nightmare basketball game for Caitlin Clark in the WNBA. Just as Clark is finally mentioned in the discussion for MVP, her coach Steph White removes Clark from the offense and makes sure all plays go through “Selfie” Mitchell (arguably one of the most selfish players in bball history).

When the Fever finally realized that Caitlin Clark is in the MVP conversation

— we are now back to the old Steph White system of offense tilted toward KM isolations and a slower, more deliberate motion and half-court style rather than the high-pace, Clark-driven two-man game.

Caitlin’s coach White is trying to stop Clark from being MVP.

Stephanie White is tweaking hard today. Second game in a row she’s playing Caitlin Clark as a 2nd or 3rd option…….and for the second straight game the opponents are dominating Indiana.

Last night Selfie scored the most points for the Fever – the Fever are 10-10 when this happens but 11-3 when Clark is allowed to cook.

Make that 10-10 when Kelsey leads. https://t.co/gGIokK7hy2

Awful coaching destroyed the Fever’s coaching again.

In addition to awful coaching, there seems to be an agenda in the worst league in sports to allow any and all fouls on Caitlin Clark. The word appears to be out. This was from last night.

🏀I WENT BACK AND CHARTED THE FILM. NOW I HAVE A SERIOUS QUESTION FOR THE WNBA.

I didn’t want opinions. I didn’t want narratives. I wanted to see it possession by possession.

So I rewatched Indiana vs. New York and charted the contact on Caitlin Clark myself.

And I DIDN’T EVEN FINISH THE 4TH QUARTER.

My film chart:

63% of the possessions I tracked with Clark handling the basketball featured what I graded as a hand-check, grab, pull or bump.

54% featured contact I graded as a defensive foul.

I counted 82+ separate instances of illegal contact.

On ONE POSSESSION, I counted 11 separate contacts that could’ve been whistled.

Now here’s the punchline:

Caitlin Clark officially went to the free-throw line FOUR TIMES.

FOUR. 🤣

So somebody at @WNBA needs to explain something to me.

Either New York suddenly assembled the greatest collection of perimeter defenders basketball has ever witnessed…

OR CAITLIN CLARK IS BEING OFFICIATED UNDER A COMPLETELY DIFFERENT STANDARD.

Because you cannot pick somebody up 94 feet, face-guard her, chase her through screens, hand-check her, grab her hip, redirect her movement and bump her off her path possession after possession and convince me that almost all of it is legal defense.

At some point, when the SAME PLAYER repeatedly receives this kind of physical treatment without a proportional whistle, people are going to start asking whether this is incompetence…

OR AN AGENDA.

And THAT is the conversation the national media seems terrified to have.

Don’t show me Clark complaining afterward.

Don’t show me her facial expressions.

Don’t debate whether she needs to “control her emotions.”

SHOW WHAT HAPPENED TO HER BEFORE SHE REACTED.

Because after charting this game possession by possession, I’m convinced the biggest Caitlin Clark officiating controversy isn’t the fouls they call.

IT’S THE ABSURD NUMBER THEY DON’T.

🎥 WATCH THE CONTACT. COUNT IT YOURSELF. THEN TELL ME I’M WRONG.
