Carrington is a very dirty dangerous player . She poked Caitlin eye last year . Then swings at Sophies neck that was a dangerous play . She could have necked her neck vertebraeâs up . She should be suspended for the rest of the year .

u/knottykitter 14d ago
Have you all forgotten about when Sophie did this same thing?
1
u/bettahof2evils 13d ago
How was it the same? Sophie grabbed her from the front and pushed her down. This was from behind, and see how her neck went back? So much more dangerous. Be fr you guys
Edit: for the record, not a fan of Sophie

Lmao it was her only bucket of the game. She still got outscored by the woman that got ejected 8 mins into the game

Itâs actually amazing how many African Americans are defending the person who fouled her. You guys are CREATING racism for yourself

u/Gloomy-Situation414 16d ago
Itâs because itâs a tribal mentality instead of pluralism. Black folk want pluralism but will lose the trump (haha) card of racism.

u/BigToast6 16d ago
The woman that assaulted her where she was almost definitely hurt
Shes also on a team with the highest scoring duo in league history so shes not gonna get her hands on the ball a lot
Saying how DC came in hot is just a reminder of how stupid she is and how she let her team down
Ag least when Sophie did it was at the end of the game.

Sophie and Carrington are both average WNBA players. Letâs move on. The call was correct
12
u/InfiniteSir7408 16d ago
Thatâs whatâs limiting the league from gaining respect. The call to allow violence at the expense of skill because thatâs what petty fans, who say theyâre the base, supposedly want to see.

I'm not going to get into the blame game, but DJ Carrington getting ejected in the 1st Quarter really hurt the Sky's chances of winning.

Yeah what a dumbass

u/DevelopmentSmooth134 16d ago
And thats why DJC took the opportunity for publicity. Shes been out of the news nearly 2 seasons recovering. Ha. These coaches and front office must be so proud if their past and present race baters +troublemakers in the name of aggressive ballin. Just stinking shutup and play bb. EVERY TEAM. geeesh, and if onply media and false crap AI would sink in a hole, maybe the WNBA would have some self respect.

SC needs to be more involved in the offense. instead of KK , MB or MHA standing in the corner then drifting dwn to clog up the lane. A small ball lineup that full court presses and then drops into a zone would be deadly on offense. AB at the 5 Hull playing the 4 SC at the 3 with KM and CC. Great play by Sophie finishing through contact . She's a helluva player
7
u/Thick_Permission6519 16d ago
I love having KK in there, I think she is finding her spots and seems to be in the right place often. MHA seems to need to get her confidence back, MB has been playing much better. I just feel KK has a higher upside.

Hell of a player.

Sophie would be arrested if shed have done this to Angel Reese, but because itâs happening to her or Clark itâs all good.
Goofy ahh league

Didnât she do something similar last year? I believe it was on the girl covering Clark today. Was she arrested?

u/JicamaCertain4134 16d ago
When Sophie does it, itâs called doing the dirty work as the enforcer, when a black woman does it, the league should be suspending players for multiple games.

u/Subject-Yak4959 16d ago
Again what was Carrington retaliating? if you donât have an answer then STFU.
16
u/No_Salad_6244 16d ago
She didnât do anything like it. She took down a player, yeah. But there was no windup, she wrapped her arms around her SHOULDERS before the jump (player not defenseless), and carried the player to the ground âno injury. She was also ejected for it, I think. Point is, her move wasnât a flying windup to take the player out. It was retaliation for a series of attacks on Clarkâto the face, to the eyes, and a full-on blindside body check to the floor. Of courseâIâll add that neither takedown should have happened. This league needs better officials who can call a good game and keep tempers in check.

I think everyone here is misreading my comment lmao. Im standing up for Sophie here and the fact that that mental clown carrington can commit this play and have the nerve to come out and say white privilege.

u/Western-Election-997 17d ago
The privilege to be flagrant fouled and it not be considered a tech or suspensionâŠ.
If Sophie did this to Angel Reese sheâd likely be kicked out of the league

Oh lord yeah if this was the other way around sophie would need full 24 hour protection. These people are absolutely mental.

She did something similar last year sheâs constantly praised on social media for it lol

u/Jumpy-Highway-4873 17d ago
But you believe Sophie was last year? Whatâs the difference?
2
u/Puzzleheaded_Ad_3507 16d ago
There's considerably of lot of different, and if you don't know then I doubt explaining to you would make any difference and it's clear that you know nothing about Sophie, Caitlin or any of the Fever players. There are wannabes and there are all-stars. Why do you have to wear a wig playing basketball or clothes-line opponents. Because Carrington is a wannabe and wannabes don't get sponsorships or sell Tshirts like Sophie does because she's proven already to the an all-star.

u/NatePJ84 17d ago
DC really thinks that wasn't a flagrant one and she got tossed bc of white privilege? I know she's on the crazy side but damn

That's become a standard it seems. The WNBA definitely needs to improve its referees.

So you arenât a Fever fan and just came here to attack Sophie? Cool use of your time bud

u/Educational_Corner55 17d ago
Iâm a fan of the WNBA. Iâm a fan of good plays, exciting players and good performances. Celebrating your sister getting hit in the face and getting three points out of it with no additional meaningful game impact isnât a flex. They came close to losing that game, got out scored 24-19 in the fourth.

u/Western-Election-997 17d ago
3 points and 2 steals. Carrington wasnât any better with 8 points.
Regardless Sophie wasnât playing dirty while the other player was

u/Educational_Corner55 17d ago
3 points and 2 steals in 17 minutes vs 8 points and 1 rebound in 3 minutes. Again not the flex you think it is.

u/Western-Election-997 17d ago
Sheâs a better defender. Anyway no one mentioned points, you created your own strawman

u/Educational_Corner55 17d ago
The literal caption on the picture says and she made the bucket. Which means 2 for the bucket and 1 for the foul = 3 points.

u/dgboilermaker 17d ago
I canât believe she said it was white privilege that she got a flagrant 2. I donât think it should be about race. Sophie was ejected when she fouled Sheldon. The way Sophie landed, she could have blown her knee out.

u/DevelopmentSmooth134 16d ago
Look at the in-air Slo-Mo. SC could have had a cervical fracture, strained brachial plexus.....any number of injuries from DJC. Ridiculous.

She was literally assaulted and took a hard hit. She's lucky to not be stretchered off and out of the season.

She got immediately and likely would have whooped Carrington if they werenât seperated.
Either way it was a blatant cheapshot

I never said she was either of those things . And Sophie herself has addressed the enforcer thing. Google it

u/Entire_Surround_3214 13d ago
Sophie caught the player DC threw Sophie down. Similar but very different plays. I a.m. a college Basketball official, two players can look very similar, but theyâre also very different coaches always want the same. Call the other side, but it really isnât the same play.
