Intro welcome to the Beno podcast where we're calling a spade a spade The Dudley boys Kennedy Carter Angel Reese were back in Action tonight against the Phoenix Mercury and yes they lost yes AEL Rees had the worst plus minus on the entire Chicago Sky Stats Team she had 19 points 20 rebounds I wanted to see the 2020 selfishly but I got to keep it in its proper perspective useless meaningless stats didn't help the Chicago Sky do anything positively all it did was get Angel Rees 19 points 20 rebounds minus 17 the worst plus minus on the Chicago Sky team as I mentioned This was the game she had another record the fastest player to reach 20 double doubles in a single season okay that's cool but folks what I want to talk about is this game right here do you remember when the New York Liberty game faced the Chicago sky is off this was the game that the New York Liberty said you know what I'm I'm done with the stat padding I'm done with the double doubles I'm done with everybody bending over backwards just to get you your record this was the game Marina ma had enough said I want out of here this was the game so folks what I want to do I want to shout out the New York Liberty for setting a predent that look history might we might be on the verge of History folks only two players have New York Liberty had a 20 and 20 game in WNBA history pretty pathetic I know but what the New York Liberty did they set a I don't care if you're close to history if the game's out of touch sit your ass on the bench stop trying to stat pad stop trying to make everybody who watches these games more foolish than we already feel and just finish the game Teresa Witherspoon with a minute to spare actually pulls Angel Reese out of the game shout out to crash out King this is the charam man the god this is the Charlamagne the god M of you know what hey teaspoon benched Angel Reese when she was one point away from my 2020 game Teresa Witherspoon come on what changed what's different did you finally realize that when it's stat padding it kind of takes away the importance of the record did that finally Dawn on you did you finally realize it's not a good look for you not a good look for Angel and definitely not a good look for the Stats Padding WNBA so yeah was she one point away the game's out of hand at this point 16 17 point game three minutes left sit your ass on the bench stay on the bench we're not stat padding today and this is all because the New York Liberty decided to put an end to the stat padding nonsense earlier in the season if the New York Liberty didn't do that Teresa Witherspoon would have put Angel Reese back in the game and we would be talk we would be having a completely different conversation we would be trashing this way much more than we already are delusional Chicago Sky fans you guys are okay with the stat padding but actual fans of not only the WNBA basketball in general that have some type of moral compass some type of decency some type of respect for the game we understand that those double doubles were just nasty work auum fouling for unknown reasons just to put her points over the Atlanta Dream fouling when the game's way out of hand just to get Angel ree that double double it was pathetic let's be honest it was absolutely pathetic but again folks every time I see these Chicago sky games My Thoughts not only do I say yeah Kennedy Carter's a bowler she's still a bowler she was checked out by the way she's completely check I don't think she wants to be there anymore she can hehe and haha and ho he and hum hum all she wants that's my dog by the way but at the end of the day when we're watching her play she didn't look as into it as she did earlier in the season that ego is severely bruised boost but if I'm Kennedy Carter I'm also thinking to myself why aren't I getting more run if I'm Camilo cardoso I'm thinking to myself why aren't I getting more run folks no way shape or form or no way shape or form should Angel Reese be the only player on the Chicago Sky to Eclipse 30 minutes unless you are trying to stat pad a little bit unless you are trying to take out cardoso a little bit so Angel ree has a little bit more freedom to pad those stats unless you're trying to prove a point to Kennedy Carter why isn't Kennedy Carter playing over 30 minutes why is Camilo cardoso only playing 15 minutes Dana Evans 12 minutes diamond Shields 6 minutes Teresa Witherspoon it's not looking too good to be honest with you it's looking like you're playing favorites to be honest with you it's looking like you're sitting down some of your better players to prop up somebody else to be honest with you and thank God the New York Liberty were tired of the STA padding nonsense and decided to play D on this final possession otherwise this would be a completely different conversation is 19 and 20 good that's good in the swing of the game I was rooting for a 20 and 20 I'm not a hater I just live in the real world stop comparing her to kayin Clark stop propping her up to be something she's not stop putting her in the same conversation as all these other great players cut it out put her in her own box she's starting her own box but when we compare her to these players I have no choice but to come here and start slapping these upside their head I have no choice I have no choice so in the swing of things did was a 20 and 20 did that sound cool yeah I was like yeah let's get it in the swing of things but there was a point where they took her out of the game I hey if you put her back in the game with three minutes left because she's one point away from a 20 and 20 game that's nasty we literally just saw kayin Clark dribble out the shot clock passing up on a 30 and 10 game 30 and9 game we literally just saw that so again shout out to the New York Liberty for Bing that stat padding nonsense so actually this 19 and 20 game can live on its own I'm not going to talk about the referees with these touch Ticky Tac fouls giving Angel Reese too many free throws that she maybe didn't deserve didn't deserve but we've come to expect that from these dumb WNBA referees I'm not putting that on Front Street sorry Chicago Sky fans you guys don't get that luxury this moment right here is what we need to say thank you to the New York Liberty for debing all the dumb actions to get the double double to get the other double double if that never happened Teresa Witherspoon is putting her back in the game make no mistake about it folks I had no idea Marina ma was that valuable to the Chicago Sky team they look like a completely different team they almost look like a team that's running through Angel Reese huh it's a thunder right there they look like a team that went from playing winning basketball with Kennedy Carter and Marina mabery doing their thing with Angel Reese playing cleanup to now being a garbage dumpster fire what it seems like but they beat the Los Angeles Parks who gives a [ __ ] they suck they're garbage basura now this team looks like they're just own it in during the game Angel re do what you want to do we're not going to St we're not going to pad those stats anymore but we're going to do it in a different way I'm not going to pad the stats by forcing you the ball I'll just pad those stats by you being the only one that gets any type of playing time at all Kennedy Carter 28 minutes Camilo cardoso 15 minutes you guys want to see something crazy right here look that's the plus minus right there angel reee had the worst plus minus on the team yet got the most minutes on the team had the worst plus minus on the team yet got the most minutes on the team now I'm not crazy when it comes to plus and minus but when we see Camilo cardoso with only 15 minutes Kennedy Carter 28 minutes it's time for me to call a spade a spade so did they stat pad not really we we just tipped the scales in a certain favorable Direction and I'm here to call you out on it 19 points 20 rebounds salute I'm glad that we don't need to spend time talking about how embarrassing this game really was because Teresa Witherspoon decided to keep you in the game so you can get the third 2020 game in WNBA history it's the Ben Daniel podcast where we're calling a spade a spade let me know what you think in the comment section below appreciate all the support take it easy
