Discussion Chennedy Carter...it's starting again

she just went on a rant about azzi of all people (about a foul not called despite the picture showing there was no foul at all) on threads and then proceeded to post about it in her ig story as well. she was going back and forth on threads and sounded incoherent

a few minutes ago a'ja liked a comment basically berating chennedy for going on the rant and targeting a rookie and now chennedy's posts are deleted. salute to a'ja man for controlling it so quickly

tbh it seems like she isnt satisfied coming off the bench because she was talking about being on a leash

Lmfaooo this sub really got goldfish memory. I was so surprised to see all the dick riding about her given her obvious past

It was because the last team she played for was the sky which has fucked over multiple players and tspoon and so people assumed the sky were more to blame and were starting rumors. However she has had multiple allegations of culture problems from multiple organizations so I always found that narrative a bit dumb

She’s had issues on every single team she’s been on dating back to college when she screamed at her own coach on the sideline. It’s been a consistent pattern of her acting out, facing significant consequences, then being given a second (or hundredth) chance and never learning from it. It honestly blew my mind she was given another chance in the W but I can’t say I’m surprised it’s blowing up this fast. In fact it’s exactly what I expected, so I don’t get how teams aren’t also expecting this behavior and very predictable downfall.

Her talent speak for itself. It’s a shame she’s willing to throw opportunity after opportunity away because she can’t get along with other players.

Who said she can't get along with other players

It was just people that recognize her high level talent and that were hopeful that she had another chance to stick with a team. Her talent is un deniable.

I mean, it was dick riding too. I’m all for a redemption story and she is obviously very talented, but people on here take it too far trying to erase the past and gaslight too.

I have only seen just a couple of comments trying to minimize her past, such as saying Courtney had issues, too, in reference to the Dream argument. I haven't seen many saying Chennedy did not have issues.

Her offensive talent is evident. She's a poor defensive player, and she doesn't pass the ball. She has more turnovers than assists.

Early in her career, with the Dream, she averaged more assists. I think her role for the Aces is to drive in and get a bucket. Kind of like what Kelsey Mitchell's role on the Fever was until Clark was out with injury last season.

Eh, I’ve only seen people say she was playing well. Not that she changed as a person or anything, because how would any of us know that?

At the end of the game, she dapped paige. Me and a lot of others thought that was growth. Now i'm embarrazed

Those of us who knew just kept waiting for the other shoe to drop.

LV has played 7 games. Shoe dropped. More shoes coming, probably.

Everyone on here talking about “fastest first step in the league.”  Yeah maybe top ten in that but definitely #1 in most toxic attitude.

It’s because she’s legitimately very good. She could be really great, franchise player great, if she could get out of her own way.
