![]() I feel like I helped grow women's basketball this year. Twitter is going to go in a rage every time. This was for - It was bigger than tonight. It's unapologetically you and that's what I did it for tonight. So this is for the girls that look like me, bag on us, trying to speak up for what we believe in. "When other people do it, ya'll don't say nothin'. 6xtMCfBbJc- Arielle (Ari) Chambers April 2, 2023 In her postgame press conference, while Twitter was aruging about how classy Reese had been, she called people out before she even saw what was taking place.ĭrops mic. Who doesn't love someone defending the honor of their conference? Visiting Elle Duncan, Monica McNutt, and Carolyn Peck on the ESPN desk she said Clark is a hell of a player, but does not take disrespect lightly and she felt Clark had disrespected Alexis (Morris) and the SEC. That's why everyone was so damn excited about it in Reese's postgame interview on ESPN.Īngel Reese talks about that moment /Domqih0zM8- CJ Fogler account may or may not be notable April 2, 2023 Can you imagine how heated a rematch would be? Who wouldn't want to see that? Rivalries are good for sports and this moment made for great theater and will hopefully set up an even better sequel. With that in mind, Reese taunting Clark was great. Even if they're just friends on the television. Nobody wants to see their friends getting picked on. There's something very human nature about that. I feel like the only time it's really understandable to be bothered by someone talking trash is when they're doing it to the team you're rooting for. Of course, regular humans do get annoyed. Why would this possibly upset a regular human? It's a reference to professional wrestling. Why else would anyone ever care about someone waving their hand in front of their face? It's not an obscene gesture. But he also wasn't telling his friends to shut up because they're down 15 in the Elite Eight) /A640O2uDMs- Pablo Torre April 1, 2023 I've talked a lot about how the infantilization of him as this cute lil kid denies his insane physical strength and on-court arrogance. ![]() She didn't just capture the nation's interest because of the way she could score, but because of the way she did it. ![]() So I moved on.Ĭaitlin Clark, after a lifetime of causing opposing players frustration and then letting them know about it, will probably be OK after Reese picked on her for a few seconds. Rooting for teams you know nothing about and riding that wave until they're elminated and then just moving on with your life. This is the kind of thing we see in the NBA all the time. Luckily, taking half a step back to remember that I did not care about Iowa or FAU or Kansas State basketball as recently as mid-March, I was able to put some perspective on this incident and realize it's pretty damn funny. Plus, who honestly wants Kim Mulkey to be rewarded with success? I had gotten wrapped up in the (completely deserved) Clark hype. In full disclosure, my initial reaction was that was uneccessary. Here she is letting Clark know about it by doing the You Can't See me celebration and pointing to her ring finger.ĪNGEL REESE TO CAITLIN CLARK □ /2NY0CEzwJ3- SportsCenter April 2, 2023 Limited by foul trouble and the fact that her teammates put together one of the most impressive offensive performances you'll ever see in college basketball, Reese only had 15 points, 10 rebounds (6 offensive), 5 assists, 3 steals, and one blocked shot. Reese knew it was coming and basked in it, which somehow made it more awesome. It quickly became discourse with the word "class" being thrown around unironically as certain people desperately wanted to put Reese in her place. Fans who tuned in watched in horror as LSU star and first team All-American Angel Reese taunted Iowa's National Player of the Year, Caitlin Clark at the end of the game. LSU beat Iowa in what will likely be one of the most watched women's college basketball games ever played. ![]()
