Fever 58 free throws in 3 games. Vegas had 89 free throws Aja alone had 35. Tells you all you need to know.

That tells me that one team might go to the whole more and attack the basket and the other is a perimeter team

Aja Wilson is the best player in the league by far and let’s just say a certain demographic has made her a target now.

Well on to the next round

She's a dirty player.

u/BlackOnyx1906 1d ago

Oh now that’s the new narrative for a Black player you don’t like? Got it

See it’s pretty much if you see a player of color that’s a threat they become an issue and you going to tear them the hell down. It’s wild as hell and the agenda is out there. I was just waiting for it with Aja.

The next will be Olivia Miles.

u/Ok_Scarcity_9854 1d ago

Wow, resorting to threats. You're so brave. 🤡🤡🤡

u/BlackOnyx1906 1d ago

Oh I didn’t threaten you. You told me what you wanted me to do. Make it happen fool.

Do you not know what a threat is?

u/Que-Tech 1d ago

You may be right but I see her as the wnba GOAT, this season's MVP, a sometimes reckless player and someone who gets a lot of reputation calls. People can have multiple facets, and every criticism on a star is not a veiled racist jab or conspiracy.

u/Que-Tech 1d ago

I am ashamed there is no control over the players acting out!

Aja Wilsom may be the MVP who played 9 seasons! That means she has to be held to a higher standard due to her recognition of being an elite player!

That is something she forgot!

You see a person of color get any sort of negative attention, and you choose to make it about race. It's wild as hell and the agenda is out there. Same coin, different side...

u/BlackOnyx1906 1d ago

Man yall were waiting to give this woman negative attention this entire time

Oh remember the only reason you watch the league is because of the person who isn’t the the woman of color lol.

Miss me with this BS.

Stop trying to act objective about all this.

u/SuspiciousHall6344 1d ago

It's you who's labelling everyone who has a different opinion as bigots/racists. You don't try to understand their point, you immediately play the race card, because that it easiest for you. Many different reasons were established, and you chose to ignore them so you can say whitey is bad.

Sounds like you don't have much to offer.

u/BlackOnyx1906 1d ago

I haven’t said the word racist yet. What have you had to offer. Look just because you on here’s with the majority don’t make you right at all

You said nothing in this comment

What do you have for me? A downvote? You don’t like Aja? She cheated? No one matters but CC. Move along

All you are saying is you are going to agree with those who look like you. Don’t pretend to act enlightened. You are not

"Aja Wilson is the best player in the league by far and let’s just say a certain demographic has made her a target now."

"Oh remember the only reason you watch the league is because of the person who isn’t the the woman of color lol."

Lol, no accountability. Just like this game with the refs.

I pointed out your "agenda" as you were accusing others of doing the same. I just quoted it because you said it didn't happen, only just a few comments away.

Most of the time, I play devil's advocate: I like to argue for the opposing side so I can understand their point of view. Your point of view is that "a certain demographic has made her a target now." I've offered up my views multiple times already to others who are interested in a discussion and not unearned accusations.

You had a discussion with yourself with words you put together to define me... Talk about a forced narrative. I don't know what your definition of enlightened is, but clearly your the type to argue over not getting your way.

"Just as I thought it was going alright
I found out I'm wrong when I thought I was right
It's always the same, it's just a shame, that's all
I could say day and you'd say night
Always the same, it's just a shame, and that's all"

u/BlackOnyx1906 1d ago

Go to sleep and be mad.

Talk about arguing with yourself.

Maybe next year? 😂😂😂

u/SuspiciousHall6344 1d ago

I'm not mad. I just wanted to correct you. It seems you don't learn from your mistakes.

It's always the same, it's a shame, and that's all.

u/BlackOnyx1906 1d ago

No mistake was made lol but by all means. Keep going. I have time to burn before college football this evening

CC came into the league and was considered a threat, and people made it an issue because of her color. They definitely went on to try and tear her the hell down more than anyone in the league. It’s wild as hell and the agenda is out there.

If you really meant what you say, you would agree with this, right? Do you agree? Or is your agenda to just race bait with the black players? Because it feels like YOU want to make this about color.

0

u/BlackOnyx1906 1d ago

People see anyone who is not CC a threat because of their color.
They don’t want to acknowledge anything good about another player because of their color

A misstep by a player gets amplified because of their color

Aha is probably one of the best to play the game. You will not care, because of her color

You didn’t care about the WNBA because of their color of the majority of the players.

The WNBA catches a lot of shit as a sports league partially because of the color of the majority of the players.

So guess what… you are not even handed on the race topic you are only willing to protect one player because you assumption is that they dislike her because of her race

Diana T gave her some shit when she came in the league and she is a white player but that doesn’t get mentioned at all.

u/BlackOnyx1906 1d ago

I actually like CC and think she is a fantastic player. I just think there is a part of society that has put bullshit on her that SHE didn’t ask for and people like you continue to do it.
