WNBA Reese Clark: (Unedited): 19 July 2024:

 It is obvious that the WNBA has just changed forever. The new exciting blood of both Reese and Clark is remarkable.
Caitlin and Angel are sisters who are more related to each other than either of them knows. I do hope that their professional and personal relations with each other grows and evolves. Because they each need one another so that they each can achieve things far greater than what they know now. But, evolution isn't easy and will be incredibly difficult for each of them.
--------------------------------
The WNBA has just become a year round sport. The young women will seek out advice and discover what the men have had to sacrifice for their own individual evolution. The young women will independently begin to do what they must in order to not become embarrassed and to remain relevant in the WNBA. What this means is the WNBA will become faster as the 3 pointers will become the slam dunks of the NBA. Then the fans who began to follow Caitlin and Angel into the WNBA together will move away from each of them and begin to follow the new stars of their own home teams. Caitlin and Angel should not think the fans will be theirs forever. They should not be sad and it does mean that Caitlin will not have home court advantage at every away game in the near future.
So what this means is this. All of the WNBA players have just seen the writing on the wall and it doesn't feel good. So they each must individually work during the off season. Work means like Jordan, Colby, Bird and others who daily practiced above and beyond the teams minimal requirement. The great NBA men have reported taking 700+ shots daily. This means the level of physical conditioning is going to be far greater than it has ever been for the WNBA old guard(respect). This also means that the old guard who have suffered many unrecoverable injuries will not return or be able to finish a season. They should be celebrated and respected. The new ones who have watched their new heroes in Reese and Clark have already begun to play basketball in earnest and the young ones who made the love connection that basketball is forever will become the ones who will challenge the heroic Clark and Reese.
--------------------------------------
The financials will also change as well and the players need to have proper representations for future negotiations. Especially when the NBA no longer needs to support or prop up the WNBA. This will become hurtful to the WNBA players as the actual financial zero point is going to be much lower without NBA financial support and that will come once realized. 
--------------------------------------
I do see slam dunks coming in the future of the WNBA and that will bring a level of new excitement. Excitement will bring more monies. Will Aliyah Boston bring forth the slam dunk in the next year? But Aliyah Boston will have to work harder than she ever has in the off season without injury. If not Aliyah Boston then who? Who will become self motivated and self inspired? Who will positively see Caitlin and Angel's popularity and want some of that? Who will see the cash? But, who can keep the love without the hate? Because you can be competitors on different teams and not hate. Who can positively inspire, drive and motivate each other. Just as Clark needs Reese, So does Clark need Boston, Smith and Mitchell, Who does Reese need on her team? 
----------------------------------------
Indiana fever has a core group and they "can" win championships like the greatest teams in the NBA. But, the core team of the Fever have to come together and they each individually and together need to work hard, take care of each other during the off season. This does also includes the rest of the team and the rest of the team provides depth. So can they and will these young women of the Fever make 700 shots a day? Will they learn to run? Will they learn to jump to dunk? Do you like losing? Do you like being the worst? Can some of you relearn how to love basketball again? (Yea, Delete).

Greatness only comes to those who are in agreement and who actually do great things together without cessation.
