I think you may have misread what Clark said. She was saying trash talk is a part of basketball and she didn't fault Reese for her 'ring' gesture. Many fans on the other hand, me included, found her following Caitlin around the court for so long pointing and gesturing was bush league. I also don't like Clark's hand to the ear gesture. Fans cheer when fans cheer - let your performance speak for itself. Still young - both excellent ball players.
Ha, I watched them both and I still talk rash on court in pickup games. My favorite is when a twenty-something gives me the 'Old man' line (simple fact of course since I turn 70 this year) . When I beat him on a step back three, I get to say, "Hey junior, when are you going to grow up and keep up with old men?" the young guys love it and I love it. What Reese did was different. After the win, she stalked Clark around the court holding up the ring finger and yelling. 'Where's your ring? You don't see me!' multiple times even as Clark walked away. If that were Jordan chasing Bird there would have been fisticuffs and you know it.
Clark, herself disagrees with you
I saw Clark's gracious comments about Reese and LSU. I liked what she said. Very classy. Much different than Reese.
Just my opinion.

Leave it to Reese and the White House to create controversy.
I have to say, it appeals to audiences and there will be more eyeballs on Women's BB next year than the last 5 years combined.

it's what players do, didn't you ever watch Jordan? or anyone, Bird, all the great ones
