A post script:Not sure about CC being "best player hands down". She has been the beneficiary of relentless media hype ever since Paige went out with an ACL. Paige is much more versatile and IMO a better all-around player. And this stuff on the media of CC "redefining the women's game" is just that: a lot of "media stuff". I would like someone to lay out specifically ust how she has "redefined" the women's game. Give me a break.
"redefined the women's game"? How? By shooting long threes? Whoo Hoo. Have these supposedly brilliant sports commentators never heard of Sabrina Ionescu? And if looking at 3 pt %'s Clark 38%, Bueckers 42.1%, Taurasi 36.2%.
OK, what else does Clark bring to "redefine" the women's game? I'll wait while someone comes back with a valid answer besides the overwhelming media hype started by and continues to be promoted endlessly by none other than ESPN, their family of channels and and affiliates of Disney including ABC, et al. - all against long held and publicized criticism of biased coverage of certain teams (Iowa WBB being one?) and love affairs with superstar players (ESPN latched onto CC when PG was out with an ACL but can't jump ship and give PG the same publicity without looking foolish in the eyes of sports world so they continue the endless hype.)
It also doesn't help that Fox carries Big East games and ESPN does not. Their sports commentators aren't aware of this? Please.
