DT had to take her big foot out of her mouth and got served a big slice of humble pie.😂

[DerekLaugann]

DIANA SHOULD COACH THE FEVER! i think that's something she can't refuse.

[robertdanilotecson]

I Just know Taurasi BECAUSE of Caitlin Clark

[speedRacer]

I'm am so glad the hubris has finally taken a back seat to sportsmanship.

[ChefDuane]

Taurasi is smart enough to figure out that the league is changing and she better get hip or she'll be seen as the jealous queen bee of insular the WNBA hive. The fans have embraced CC and she is quickly becoming the face of the WNBA. Other rookies just can't match the draw that is CC. The only player that can't seem to handle it is Ghetto Barbie.

Zeto sold out arena for mercury since 1997, taurasi never ever sold it out..CC 1 timed sold out arena...😂

[natellareal]

Are people really so naive thinking that Taurasi and Griner would really support CC? Did they talk to he behind cameras? No.

[emjaythegreat]

You know the loss is even worse when you talk stuff about the player going to face a reality check and then lose to them first game you play against them 😂

Good for Taurasi, showed humility and 'class' for a change. Clark's classy style is catching on ! its what we as a country have been hungering for and wishing it would come back for decades. Ever since sports lowered it self to ghetto, tattoo riddled, uneducated, gang-friendly, drug infested, uneducated levels. Clark reminded the planet "you don't have to be that" to be a great athlete. Larry bird, Magic Johnson, Isiah Thomas, Joe Dumars must be happy to see the positive trend back to class.

Diana didn't say anything negative about Caitlin. All she said was, that in the move from college to the pros, there is a learning experience, and that Caitlin will have to go through it. She is going through a learning curve and fully admits it on some of her less dominate games. The media is twisting Diana's comment out of context.
Haven't heard anyone point this out, hope others have been or will.

What kinda Crappy Photos, as 'Thumnails" are ... These ?!"

[alanpooley]

Taurasi & Bird never hated CC. I've watched their podcast from Iowa days when they watched College games and nothing was said. I think the comment reality is coming was a general comment and genuine. All Star Rookies get roughed up, some of it was over the top but that was never by the top stars. I believe all this was twisted because of all the questions they get about her. It's not CC they hate it's the press/fans and questions that come with her.

Old vs new, no disrespect but as always times change and nobody likes loosing the edge they once had

[nr]

Love the love 🎉 the Rook and the Goat! I would have loved to be able to witness more thrilling matchup with them for 5-10 yrs more but DT, for sure, will feel good that W is in good hands now

[TexasFlyer]

CC is so much better than DT ever was.

[ecwee]

Taurisi is humbled . Yiu need to wirk yiur talk

[SebastianReign-vonh]

That was mere projection. It was just one game, but Reality came for dinosaurs Ichabod Crane and The Weaknd. 🏀📫🏀😂😂

[CrayCray]

Angel Reese must be burning from jealousy 😂😂😂
