Fans Remind Sporting World of Tom Brady’s Temper Tantrums as LSU’s Angel Reese Gets Lashed for “Classless” Behavior Against Caitlin Clark

Angel Reese played a crucial role in Sunday’s win over Iowa as Louisiana State University claimed its first national championship. However, more than the one-sided dominance in the win, the star forward created the headlines with her taunting of her rival Caitlin Clark after the game. However, if Tom Brady can have his outbursts on his sideline, then why can’t Reese play with the same intensity? This is the question that bugged most about the post-celebration outcry.

Somehow, WWE legend John Cena is involved in all this most unexpectedly. Let’s just say Angel Reese avenged her Louisville sisters. Some thought the trash-talking was crass. However, most fans appreciated greatness as they saw it.

Angel Reese turns Clark’s celebration against her

After the 102-85 win over Iowa where Angel recorded 15 points, 10 rebounds, 5 assists, and 3 steals, she started doing John Cena’s ‘You Can’t See Me’ taunt in front of the Iowa star guard. Caitlin famously did the move against Louisville this year in the Elite Eight. “Caitlin Clark is a hell of a player, for sure. But I don’t take disrespect lightly. And she disrespected Alexis and my girls — South Carolina, they still my SEC girls, too. Y’all not gonna disrespect them either,” Reese told ESPN.

However, when the finger-pointing started, and people started calling Angel words like ‘classless’ on the internet, she didn’t sit back and absorb the criticism, hitting back sharply during her press conference. “When other people do it, y’all don’t say nothing. So this is for the girls that look like me, that’s gonna speak for what they believe in. It’s unapologetically you. And that’s what I did it for tonight,” she said.

As for Caitlin, she didn’t notice the taunting and Reese pointing to her championship ring finger, as she was too focused on getting mentally ready for the handshake after the game.

Fans threw in the Tom Brady defense for Angel

Former Tampa Bay Buccaneers and New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady wasn’t a fan of situations not going in his favor. He infamously threw his sideline headset and iPads during his outbursts. And fans think if that was interpreted as sporting passion, Angel’s behavior doesn’t deserve the extra scrutiny.

Former Washington quarterback Robert Griffin III tweeted in Reese’s defense among others including Lakers legends Shaquille O’Neal and LeBron James.

“If it wasn’t “classless” when Caitlin Clark did it, don’t call it classless when Angel Reese does it. Let the women compete, it’s sports,” former NFL player and analyst Emmanuel Acho said. Surely, the trash-talking will soon be a forgotten episode. Reese can celebrate the big-picture women’s basketball national championship she just won without paying much attention to the naysayers.
