Should Clark be on the Olympic team?

[Mr. Cam]

That door swings both ways .... can Clark realize the team will be more succesful by embracing her teammates obvious talents while humbling herself?

1:19 - 1:40

Now we have another authoritative answer instead of an opinion or a supposition.

Great interview. She just gained a new fan.

Context is important:

This whole argument can actually break several ways:


3) Clark obviously makes those around her better with her passing skills and as a decoy to draw defenses to her, therefore making life
easier for her teammates. But what if Clark's teammates along with her coach's system actually make Caitlin better? Their ability to put
the team first and realize they'd be more successful by embracing her talents while humbling themselves is not easy to do, especially
the buy-in seen by an entire team.

4) Will a team of pros be real pros, in the sense their primary objective is to win. Or will they be pros simply by being paid for playing the
game? Will they succumb to pettiness and hazing to make a new player earn their place, or will they do their best to integrate her into
the team....regardless of her skill level. Maybe she will be ordinary; perhaps she'll elevate to become an WNBA star as well. It seems as
if the Fever are willing to take this path, even if the rest of the league isn't on board.

Will be an interesting ride, especially with the heightened audience that's going to be following.

"That door swings both ways ...." can Clark realize the team will be more succesful by embracing her teammates obvious talents while humbling herself?

My comment (That door swings both ways....) is specifically in reference to the bolded section in item 3 above. The op asks will the team embrace Caitlyn talents while humbling themselves? They should ALL embrace each other talents (not put one above the other as suggested by the op) and be a team first and last.

Agreed. From the interview clips I've seen it sounds like they are. This whole "Caitlin vs WNBA vets" talking point has been really frustrating to see bantered about. Can the season just start already so we can finally see these teams play?
