Ok so straight out of the gate, CC is a phenomenal shooter who puts a lot of points on the board and she puts a bunch of assists on the stats sheet. However, she puts a ton of points on the board because she is a volume shooter and she has a lot of assists (she’s I think #2 in the league right now) but she’s also a turnover machine(she’s either #1 or #2 right now). She plays dirty and has since college. There are several video compilations people have put together showing her two handed full extension just knocking players down or hitting them across the face/head. She plays the innocent/victim card any time she does something or something happens to her.
People make the comments of “look at how the defense plays right on top of her” to use as a reason why she’s the best or one of the best in the game. Defenses play her like that because she doesn’t have the ball handling skills of a Paige Bueckers or Olivia Miles. She will give up on defense as well. There was a play last week where she thought a Fever player was fouled on a turnover and instead of playing the ball until a whistle was blown, she allowed an easy layup because she was busy arguing with the ref. She is not a Top 5 player in the league, at best she’s at the bottom of the Top 10. Watch her body language on the court, her attitude is shit which is a shame.
She absolutely got eyes on the league which should be applauded but the fans aren’t staying for her. She missed most of last season and viewership was way up without her. She has never been a winner at any level yet people act like she is. I hope this helps.

Back to back to back Big 10 champion, getting back to back 2nd in the NCAA championship, and being the all time leading scorer for collegiate women’s basketball don’t really sound like she’s never been a winner. Further, per this article viewership dropped by more than 50% when she was out with an injury.
You’re just being a hater.
