Van Lith and Clark are actually friends. Angel did it as a follow up to it, but the thing people need to realize is that none of this is personal. Angel especially is playing it up to drive interest and she talks trash but it's not serious as fans take it to be.


Yeah, I'm generally familiar with the background. There's actually a key video you didn't post that I've seen when the Youtube algorithm had me trapped. HVL saying Caitlin wasn't even doing that toward her and was actually facing her own strength coach (it's a Bleacher report short, so doesn't post well).

What I was specifically referencing was that Angel was strangely fired up over this...





That's what I found just wonky, random, and bizarre. You got all mad and fired up, and just dying to uncork that because she "disrespected" South Carolina when you're not even South Carolina? Just a personal thing...when I see things I interpret as really weird, and randomly out there, I don't like to "associate" as my default. Extreme example: when Tom Cruise went wonky on Oprah (then the scientology), I never watched another movie til Top Gun 2. Again...that's an extreme. So Angel's thing was obviously minor by comparison, and like I said, even though I thought it was really weird, I'm well over it.

I found Sides' decision not to run PnR for CC/AB, or call some off ball screen action to free CC up, to be really bad, but man....that interior was shut down for the final 5 mins of that game by Reese and Cardoso.

It was a one point win. It's true Chicago really upped the defensive pressure, but I still don't think they get the win if Sides doesn't go braindead and open the door wide open for them.
