I see she gets a lot of rebounds, but it also seems many of those are put backs on her own misses. Serious question...where does she rank Caitlin Clark is LeBron James. Angel Reese is Tristan Thompson. Hope that helps. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
posty 2,641 Posted May 23 Some (obviously not here) wonder why Angel Reese gets so many rebounds... Here is a little very short stretch from today's game against the Liberty, early in the first quarter... 7:44 Kamilla Cardoso misses driving layup 7:42 Angel Reese offensive rebound 7:41 Angel Reese misses layup 7:38 Angel Reese offensive rebound 7:37 Angel Reese misses layup 7:36 Angel Reese offensive rebound 7:33 Jonquel Jones blocks Angel Reese's 1-foot layup 7:32 Angel Reese offensive rebound 7:30 Jonquel Jones blocks Angel Reese's layup 7:28 Angel Reese offensive rebound Reese in the first quarter was 0-5 from the floor and had seven rebounds (five offensive)...

Cdub100 3,863 Posted Saturday at 01:21 PM I don't watch the WNBA, but the amount of black rage on white women is astounding. I'm not surprised by it, but maybe this will help some people wake up. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kilroy69 1,228 Posted Saturday at 02:41 PM I watched a clip yesterday of Angel Reese getting blocked by a woman who did not even jump, TWICE. I am not even kidding. It was comical. I like watching Clark and I was 100 percent wrong about her. I did not think she would translate into this type of success. I have heard so many times in the past that THIS WNBA player was going to transcend from a local celeb to a nationwide one. The rest of the league is really hard to watch though. Reese had 12 rebounds last night. half of which were from getting a rebound on HER OWN missed shots. She is like the female version of Dennis Rodman except she cannot get into anyone's head. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

avoiding injuries 1,534 Posted Sunday at 11:31 AM I noticed Sir Britney Greiner wanted in on the racial hate against Clark too. Maybe they think their absurdity will bring more viewers? It may work, except I think the only thing people are seeing are clips posted to social media and nobody is actually watching the games. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's dumb to martyr a career criminal because he got killed by a cop who was then punished. We all know this. We need to stop pretending this isn't stupid. The result is more dumb stuff. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I could probably list a lot, but a lot of people here are too insecure about women's sports... Some notes/questions: The season now consists of 44 games. The finals are now a best-of-seven. How will the Golden State Valkyries do in their first season? How will Caitlin Clark and Angel Reese do in their sophomore season? How about rookie Paige Bueckers? How will she do this season? Will A'ja Wilson become the league's first player to win four MVP awards? With all of the trades and free agent moves this off-season, how will it pan out for all teams? Can the New York Liberty repeat? I know that the biggest question here would be, "Why should I watch women's sports?" or something very similar to that... As I said above, you are just too insecure and think basketball needs to have dunks to be considered "worth watching"... These posts just make me (and others) laugh... Anyway, enjoy the season...

listen2me 23 1,836 Posted yesterday at 11:28 AM I dont watch any WNBA but I will see clips on X every once in a while. The clips of Reese trying to make shots from point blank range are hilarious. Looks like an under 10 youth league player. I read she gets 35% of her rebounds off her own misses. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Even though much of Angel Reese's rebounds come off her own missed shots, the defense could rebound those. So I don't know how fair it is for people to say it's all just junk stat padding. Yes, I've seen her get blocked by a defender seemingly not even jumping...but again, how are they allowing her to rebound in the first place then? At the very least she must have box out skills and the ability to play good bully ball underneath.... So I think saying she is Tristan Thompson is a bit over the top. In the context of this being the WNBA and the talent level, there has to be a better comparison Draymond minus the 32% career 3 point percentage? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
