Does anyone actually watch womens basketball?

And Jackson. All three of them can be locked up in rookie salaries for at least two more years. Then you can use the extra money to sign better FAs.

In the meantime...

WNBA scores top non-Clark playoff audience in 20 years

@paulsen_smw

If there was any question whether the WNBA can maintain its momentum sans-Caitlin Clark, Tuesday's playoff viewership may provide an answer.

Caitlin Clark made the WNBA popular and in the league physically abused her and disrespected her. I don't blame her for quitting basketball for the next 200 days.

Carrington made such an obvious eye gouge (watch the video) and the league and the media did nothing and most were afraid to call her out on it for fear of being called racist.

Then Carrington played the race card and the league jumped to her defense. I have never seen a player targeted like that with permission.

I watched it live. it wasnt an attempt to "gouge her eye out" in the least. just a follow through and her fingers caught her eye. the refs didnt even see the contact. they assumed Clark was being dramatic like she sometimes is. even Clark said it was a basketball play after the game. and anyway Clark hip checked her into the 2nd row on a later play for a little pay back. neither was called. thats baskteball. stop trying to make it a racial issue just to stir sht up. she got fouled hard by white girls in college on many occasions. why werent you crying then? and black women foul other black women in the WNBA hard all the time. its a physical game. did you not see the Griner vs. Jackson altercation earlier in the week? you only watch Clark games, its no wonder why you only call out fouls on Clark...

Spike Lee does. (I don't know what trash he was talking with Kelsey.)

Spike Lee and Kelsey Plum Trade Trash Talk During Liberty Aces Playoff Game

The Liberty took Game 1 from the Aces with a 10-point victory.

Spike Lee is still alive? Didn't his career end about 35 years ago with Do the Right thing?

Who will be the WNBA's version of Reggie Miller circa 1994 😂.

If well below Clark heights, WNBA viewership still rising as semis begin

@paulsen_smw

While nowhere close to the heights of a Caitlin Clark game, WNBA viewership continues to rise as the semifinals begin.

Link:www.sportsmediawatch.com/2024/10/wnba-...

Sunday’s Aces-Liberty WNBA semifinal Game 1 averaged 929,000 viewers on ABC, up 27% from Game 1 of last year’s WNBA Finals between the same two teams, which aired in the same Sunday ABC timeslot (729K).

Who? And I live in the LA TV market.

You write "Who?" And then state you live in the LA market. So you know the Sparks play in LA.

Paige Bueckers won NCAA player of the year as a freshman over Clark. If she hadn’t struggled with injuries she’d be bigger than Clark. A healthy year next year for Connecticut and WNBA going up another level.

Tuesday’s Aces-Liberty WNBA semifinal Game 2 averaged a 0.56 rating and 969,000 viewers on ESPN2, surpassing Sunday’s Game 1 on ABC (929K) as the most-watched semifinal game since 2002.

Like Game 1, Game 2 outdrew all four games of last year’s WNBA Finals between the same two teams, the most-watched of which was Game 4 with 889,000.

Ratings: WNBA, SEC on ABC and more

@paulsen_smw

WNBA playoff viewership continues to rise; the SEC is powering ABC to its best five-week start in eight years; and more.

UConn has sold out their season tickets, and so has Iowa... without Clark. People must be very excited about Lucy Olsen and Hannah Stuelke!

Celebrating 4,000 attendees??

Are you numerically illiterate? That post says 17,035 average attendance. 507 more than Indiana Pacers.

This entire post was 100% true. Before someone suggests this is racist, a number of black pundits agreed with your take. The eye gouge was obviously intentional and fit into Carrington's past behavior.
