That league that had a new player brought in via draft, that's selling tickets and getting people to watch.  Other players don't seem to like all the attention she gets and, behaving like middle school girls about it.

League, and some players including own teammates seem a bit tone deaf about it.  Maybe the charter flights they now enjoy have them distracted.

Or maybe they're going full on Heel with the sport.

Not how I'd run the bidness
I  saw nothing about this until Charles Barkley's comments which were spot on!

The checks cash the same.  Imagine the PGA tour players hazing Woods or trying to undermine him.    Nobody needs to roll out the red carpet, but she's doing a lot more to build a bigger pie by simply breathing than the other malcontents trying to 'send her a message.'

I think she got bumped, should take it a move on.  I think it was called a foul?  That's the penalty.

This is a whole big thing because.......reasons?

She's a rookie, she's going to be tested.  Vets are going to see if she's tough or just a chick who thinks she's Steph Curry.  

Why does a basketball thing have to be so much more than it is?  Same with Deion.  Same with ______ (insert mainstream faux-caring entity).

It's all stupid.

It is stupid.   Media and players can't just be.

The target of all of this seems to get it.

I didn’t see where CC made a big deal out of it. The media and fans did.

Man, people just can't let this thing go. It's been a "cold" for almost 2.5 years now.

There's a difference between getting tested as a rookie and getting clotheslined at speed in actions that would get suspensions in the NBA.

she's a special rookie

and she's a little spicey herself

I'd guess things will settle down soon

I'm guessing the league will send a strong message soon.
