WNBA Discourse Has Become A Caricature of The NBA Twilight Zone

Bomani Jones: WNBA discourse 'hardly ever about basketball'

The 2025 WNBA season is barely underway, and we're already back in the thick of Caitlin Clark and Angel Reese's narratives. Bomani Jones has seen enough.

Say it louder for them folks in the back, Bomani.

I forgot how disliked Angel is on this forum.

Run me up to speed, because from all that I see on here it seems to be less dislike for her, and more dislike for the narrative that some posters on here are trying to force her into being on CC's level.

Which makes this all the more bewildering because all the Black players (who're on CC's level) are getting ignored in all this, in relation.

It's nothing more than cutting off one's nose to spite one's face shyt.

 

[Gil Scott-Heroin]

It's a damn shame, ain't it.

No thread on it either. Which tells you all you need to know.

We got a whole damn extensive thread on here about Angel Reese's [meaningless] double doubles, to the point where even pointing out the absurdity of it has got me banned from the thread -

I can't post in there @FAH1223

WNBA discourse is a microcosm of everything wrong with this country on both and all sides

 

[NotAHotep]

Is it anything beyond how many point blank shots she misses? I figured everything else was just jokes like any other player

Nah. Missed layups are a normal occurrence in the WNBA, but Angel’s are picked apart on another level.

Because she's a big named player man it's not a conspiracy

She gotta take the good with the bad for having such a big marketing push, that's how it works for everyone, people are more critical of LeBron mistakes than lesser known players, it's been this way for everyone except international players usually

A’ja Wilson is one of the best ballers in history and she don’t get any where near the attention on here and in media.

Nothing is interesting about her. She didn’t get her own shoe until Clark and Reese entered the league.

That’s making @Gil Scott-Heroin ’s point

He should lead by example and make threads on them.

 

[fifth column]

Ain’t gon front, I can’t get around to watching these chicks play ball but Angel is cute though

It would merely by a drop in the ocean.

It'd get a handful of replies and then quickly be swept out by the tide, pushed past the first page never to be bumped again. We have a 70-page thread on Angel Reese, so this board has already decided on which Black player they want to attach themselves to (almost entirely due to her being CC's adversary). It's why you have all her apologists coming to her defense no matter how bad she plays and no matter how far away she is as a player, compared to CC, and nothing will change as they continue to fight on that lie.

Because if this was about hoops, then they'd get behind A'ja or Phee instead, but we all know that's not the case.
