Not trying to call anyone out, but Ann Killion says that if you are mad about the "snub", you aren't paying attention.
It's paywalled, but the short story is she shouldn't be on the Olympic team.
That's fair.
This is nothing to do with jealousy or being dumb. It is timing, a singular purpose of winning every gold medal there is to win in women's basketball, and they aren't worried about "growing the sport", only winning a gold medal every time out. Killion says she isn't even the best rookie in the WNBA, but doesn't say who is. Now to be fair, they could play me, maybe not at point, but as a jack up ill-advised long distance threes at will kind of out of shape pudgy 61 year old guy with gout and a flaky back off guard and still win gold. Sure, it would in essence be four on six, but they'd still win gold.
Her time will come. Or not. Up to her and continued good luck.
If Steph Curry doesn't get Jordan Rules 15 years into a supernova career, why should she as a rookie? (Why should anyone?)
