So her average would drop from 10.8 to 9.0 rebounds per game and she wouldn't average a double double.

If she just shot 100% from the field like everyone else who has ever played basketball... duh... Following your shot is a good thing...

Moses Malone made a living rebounding his own missed shots..

I don't care about women's basketball (and particularly don't care about the WNBA); but just taking a basketball perspective- that's not a good sign for her.

What it means is she's a good rebounder, but not a good finisher at the rim. She's not the biggest player, so she has to rely on athletic ability to get a lot of those rebounds. And right now, she's probably at or near her peak for athletic ability, which will level off and then start declining. In addition, since she's new to the league, other players will get more used to her game and make adjustments.

She needs to finish better.

Angel isn’t even a year removed from LSU & lsu fans have turned on her. You don’t win a title without her & you damn sure don’t make the elite 8 this previous season without her. This is hands down the most racist fan base in the SEC

Why are you so committed to overlook her nasty bitch personality?

She’s trash and will get herself in trouble and will be out of the league within 5 years.

The difference between them is 1 skenes and burrow were the most dominant players in their respective natty runs all throughout the league, Reese was not.


in 2023 she was an unanimous first team All American and the tournament MOP

How do you reconcile this absurd position with the love for players like Justin Jefferson, Jamar Chase, Shaq, Tyran Mathieu, Devin White, Patrick Peterson, etc, etc, etc?
You asked a question. I have a simple answer for you, and I have a more complicated answer for you.

Simple. This fanbase is also sexist.

More Complicated: Racism is not merely about skin color. Without going into a detailed explanation about racism, I will give you some examples.

For example, racists will tolerate, even love, a member of the other who acts like what the racist perceives to be the behavior of their own race. However, the more a person acts like the behavior perceived to be that of the other, the more animus that is directed to that person. To spell it out for you, for a white racist: act "white" = good; act "black" = bad. Reese's eyelashes were a source of many negative comments. Why?

Also, racists are more likely to forgive the same behavior by a member of their own race than they are a person of the other. Clark = competitive; Reese = thug. Why?

Also, there is the group think aspect of racial perception. Once a person has been identified by members of the group as being a member of the other, every thing the person does is viewed through a lens of being the other. Disapproval of the person is virtue signaling and reaffirmation to the group.

This is a partial answer to your question. So endeth the lesson. I have little interest in reviewing, let alone responding to, any rejoinder.

when your player wears the black hat your supposed to embrace it.

Given she’s never had any off the court troubles. She just talks shite the hate for her is gross.

Too many LSU fans wish they could have been rooting for Caitlin Clark when we played.

She shoots around the basket from 3'x-4' below the rim. And 1 of 6 rebounds off her owns misses is a lot, but she's tenacious, positions well and doesn't give up.

Don’t care. She’s a loud mouth, super entitled, ghetto as shite, and classless. Total example of the shitty side of basketball, a representation of throwing education out the window in college sports, and why it’s a good thing that Caitlin Clark exists and is the face of the WNBA.

They tried to do the Bird/Magic thing, and maybe they succeeded, but Magic >>>>> Angel.

Sorry, she’s a poor representative of LSU. So was Ben Simmons, for different reasons. Especially when you consider other high profile athletes from LSU, like Shaq, Jayden, Burrow, etc.

I saw a post tearing into angel and literally the first comment was Shaq telling the guy she has a ring and he lives in his mom’s basement.
