‘Stupid’ – Linda Cohn sounds off on impatient Caitlin Clark critics with a Michael Jordan reminder

Caitlin Clark's disappointing playoff exit from the WNBA has sparked criticism, with NBC News drawing comparisons to Michael Jordan. However, WNBA analyst Linda Cohn has spoken out against this comparison, labeling it "stupid." Cohn argues that Clark, who is only 24 years old, has only been in the league for a short time and has already played a significant number of games.

She points out that Michael Jordan took over 500 games to win his first championship, suggesting that Clark should not be held to the same standard. Cohn emphasizes that it is premature to question her greatness at such an early stage in her career and urges others to lay off.
