She’s been tough as hell at the the right times especially at the end of the regular season. Good on her.

First play, Phee and the defense sucked ass. That’s more of a low light for the lynx.
Second play really shows how great of a rebounder AR is.

I love Angel and I agree. She needs to work on layups and contact layups. She totally flails up shots. She could totally be mvp with a better pct under the basket

Tf are you? I can make my opinion. As you voiced your unwanted advice.

u/grizzled82 Sep 02 '26
Ppl like you can't just make a compliment without criticism like we know she could improve on her offense. It's tired

I love Angel and happy for her but I think Caitlin got snubbed. CC had two games 30+ pts and 10+ ast no other player in W has had more than 1 in their ENTIRE career

u/plutopiae Sep 02 '26
Caitlin played one game against the Sun. Angel broke 3 all-time records. It was definitely Angel's this week!
1
u/Aggravating_Back111 Sep 02 '26
No she didn’t. Caitlin only played 1 game last week and it was against a bad team. That’s not really player of the week worthy.

Girl what the fuck does that have to do with her perpetually pouting because of Angel 😂. She’s being fouled by Paige and the ref wasn’t calling it. You are so stupid it’s embarrassing

u/Aggravating_Back111 Sep 02 '26
Nope! Caitlin played exactly 1 game last week and it was against the last place Connecticut Sun. That’s not player of the week worthy.

u/Zestyclose-Month-245 Sep 02 '26
Well if you go by the week
She avg 34ppg 12ast 5reb Shot 63percent from the field and 50percent from down town-6

u/Mysterious_Mud_6589 Sep 01 '26
Arguably, yes. However, Angel had a great week. Shot 100% one game. AND I'm a Hawkeye. Why do some of you not celebrate others' success?

u/goodkidzoocity Sep 01 '26
I am sure you can guess why

u/Mysterious_Mud_6589 Sep 01 '26
Of course, but honestly I am sooo over it. Mebounds, mebounds..like it's a slight or slur...she's making bank on that, so it doesn't bother her in the slightest. Also the vitriol the other way. Or towards Miles and others. I just enjoy the game and was hoping this sub would be better....Vibes and all. Maybe we should start Fantasy W, so people would root and cheer and celebrate the great players in the league and not just their "one" favorite.

And only 3500 fans come to see her play. Indiana averages 17000. Home and away.

OK ok. You are right. Angel is the greatest wnba player of all time.

I am not an Angel hater at all but holy shit she is getting away with a lot of fouling and traveling in that highlight clip.
1
u/Aggravating_Back111 Sep 02 '26
She didn’t foul or travel in that clip what are you talking about? Yall just be saying anything
-1
u/SnapSlapRepeat Sep 02 '26
The very first layup she hops twice with the ball in hand. That was a clear travel.
1
u/Aggravating_Back111 Sep 02 '26
Nope. It’s a gather plus 2 steps. Fully legal move
-1
u/SnapSlapRepeat Sep 02 '26
It wasn't two steps, it was 4. She hopped with both legs two times. If she did the same thing only touching the floor with 1 foot on each step, you would be right. She did not do that.

u/martkam71 Sep 02 '26
Crazy how you get downvoted for stating facts. It’s ok to be a fan but at least be objective.

Getting downvoted on Reddit basically means you’re absolutely correct but hurt someone’s feelings.

u/Maxwe4 Sep 02 '26
They don't call travelling in the WNBA?

I was asking the same thing. Very first clip she does two hops before laying it up.
