An expectation is a conjecture about the future and judging by the recent past a shoe for a "rookie" is not well received. It relates to the shoe. Just let me know your guard rails and I'll try to stay inside them. What may or may not happen is pretty much the grist of sports chat. We are always getting ahead of ourselves, whether it be will we get X recruit or how will we match up against Notre Dame or USC. That and what just happened in the sport.
This is interesting because the whole "league resents Clark" still comes across as social media hype than actual reality to me. Everyone will have their opinion based on how they perceive things. My perception is that most of it is bunk and that Taurasi's comments were taken out of context more than they should have been.
It's no different than these "WNBA" pages on FB and social media making erroneous claims that Clark was dropped by Nike, she's signing with Adidas for insane numbers, etc. This has taken on a life of its own due to trolls who want to drive engagement to their "sites" that were recently created, have no long term credibility in the sport and could be a home for malware that attack our devices.
It's not a matter of guardrails for me but understanding what you actually meant. It's taken two replies to get the full context of your perspective regarding your orginal comment.
I think it's too soon to say anything as to how Bueckers will or won't be treated. You see things differently. That's how the world works.
