***CC22 and the Fever mega thread***

[SoonerBeAHawk]

Highlights:

Before Ruocco even mentioned it I already had said to my wife Caitlin is on pace for a triple-double (then had to explain what that meant!) but also that it's still early.

So most of the game I was "worrying" about that, then abandoned that in hopes of a 30-point double-double. No luck.

As a CC fan I'm too greedy! Kind of let that distraction keep me from enjoying a really good game by Caitlin. Her 4 steals were particularly impressive ... in my completely unbiased opinion.

Not good defense according to legend.

Kind of an odd night. Destroy the starters and then let the bench players make a huge run. CC looked pretty good as did Boston and Mitchell. I'm still saying KM for MVP!

I’m guessing some of the fever players saw the halftime lead and took the foot off the pedal to coast in the 3rd, not realizing that those bench players on the other side are playing for minutes and potentially contracts with other teams. Just like Ferentz struggling to hold a 2nd half lead because he turtles up on offense too early, you need to keep the foot on the gas until at least halfway through the 4th quarter.

Fever beat the #1 team in the league by 19 and people like Ludd just whined the entire time.

And you just griped about Clark the entire time, so there’s that. And more like they beat the #12 team since Minnesota tanked the game.

The Fever blow more leads than any team I’ve ever seen. Somehow it must be Clark’s fault.

Better picture.

Jemele Hill is going to be one of the people doing the "deep dive,"....

MVP? lol Not a chance in this league

Briann January can be the first one out the door in the offseason. This staff is a joke top to bottom even after a W. Clown show

The Liberty play @ the Dream tonight. If the Dream win, then the Fever will be locked into the 5 or 6 seed and will be able to choose who they play in the playoffs, Dream or Aces. They could sit the starters and concede the final game @ the Lynx if they would rather play the Aces.

However, if the Liberty win tonight, then the Fever could beat the Lynx tomorrow to get the 4 seed and home-court advantage vs the Dream.

With the 2nd tiebreaker being winning percentage against teams that finish .500 or better these games w/ playoff teams facing each other allow for a lot of movement of seeds.

From her cellar.

 

[Hawksfor3]

We're getting clobbered tomorrow.

 

[Randon]

A pretty decent game for CC except her turnovers.

 

[Kceasthawk@77]

I know a lot of those false narratives got put to bed today.

Lolol.. You mean like how she has the best +/- on the team by far and yet played only about 26% of he minutes?

 

[Kceasthawk@77]

Playing less then half 0f the minutes after the first game as well.....
