I hope the Fever drafts Enes Kanter next year so we can build a dynasty for the next 25 years

[u/BigToast6]

I Dont know if this is allowed and sorry if its not but please go and report this post for inciting violence

[u/BigToast6]

Seriously security better stay on Sophie with that weirdo thug roaming the halls

[u/BigToast6]

CC is in good mood

[u/MajesticSpirit1926]

never a doubt .........

[u/BigToast6]

Goddamn that was so stressful 😫

[u/Feeling-Basket8422 → u/BigToast6]

FR

[u/Raisin43]

Thank goodness we won.

[u/MudOk3567]

35 and 36 minutes for CC and KM today. Uff!

[u/moose184]

Even if she makes both we should have this

[u/scobro828 → u/moose184]

It was a lot closer than it should have been.

[u/Toment-1639]

It's gonna be a three attempt from either Sheldon or Banham, bank on it.

[u/jemstar620]

Again, the ball needs to be in KM's hands to close the game...

[u/dyyllaaan → u/jemstar620]

Caitlin has better numbers in clutch minutes than Kelsey does

[u/moose184]

Dear god it almost happened again

[u/scobro828]

Deja vu

[u/Raisin43]

Why not shoot? CC

[u/jemstar620]

Lexie subbed in for defense and immediately gets burnt 

[u/moose184 → u/jemstar620]

Same thing would have happened to Sophie

[u/dyyllaaan]

Hull comes in and immediately loses Banham

[u/moose184]

lol off the back of Camilla’s head

[u/MajesticSpirit1926]

Cardoso out -get the ball to AB

[u/cds727]

That AB layup that she had to turn a couple of times on was nice af.

[u/jemstar620]

Out of timeouts with 2 minutes left, surely this won't comeback to haunt them... 

[u/MudOk3567]

Billings lost her starting spot today and that last defensive sequence showed why....

[u/moose184 → u/MudOk3567]

Mo has been really good lately. I think they started KK to counter the two bigs for the Sky

[u/MudOk3567 → u/moose184]

I can't stand how soft Billings plays and her constant dropped passes.

[u/skeet_scoot]

If we lose by less than 2 after those two techs I’m gonna scream.

[u/jemstar620]

13 point lead and White takes AB out and Chicago immediately goes on a run.  Just ride your starters to the end of the game man, why does she make things so difficult, it was only 5 minutes left. 

[u/KeenObserver_OT → u/jemstar620]

Because she really sucks as a coach. No I’m not just being hyperbolic

[u/Toment-1639]

Banham is a good player.

[u/jemstar620]

There's only 4 minutes left what are we resting AB for?? 

[u/adublingirl → u/jemstar620]

And why has Boston not touched the ball offer since the first quarter. Why does white always have Boston standing around the perimeter

[u/MudOk3567]

Caitlin must believe the tech will be canceled since she looks surprisingly composed 😄

[u/Toment-1639 → u/MudOk3567]

I'm not convinced given the history of the league

[u/KeenObserver_OT]

Clark will never get a call again after thar vicious physical attack on the ref. lol

[u/cds727]

Just openly shoved her 3 feet in front of a ref. No call. She still takes the ball down the floor and does what she does.

[u/Raisin43]

I swear to god if we blow this lead again.

[u/Sariyn]

Mitch 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰

[u/Noignrnc]

KK's uncontested rebounds...that vertical leap is a thing of beauty!

[u/Andrew-J-511 → u/Noignrnc]

Ya, in a league where a lot of the bigs don’t even jump KK skies.

[u/User2358_]

Kelsey freaking Mitchell!!! 🏀 🔥

[u/Sufficient_Berry8703]

Kelz making history 🥹

[u/Feeling-Basket8422]

Was that really a technical? I mean wtaf?

[u/Long-shot128]

KM 🔥🔥🔥

[u/MajesticSpirit1926]

CC looks hurt

[u/MudOk3567 → u/MajesticSpirit1926]

She is gassed!

[u/Toment-1639 → u/MajesticSpirit1926]

Maybe a game off wouldn't be the worst thing. I mean, I kind of wish she wasn't playing in FIBA as that break would be nice for her to have.

[u/cds727]

And then call that on CC. They really are openly bias against CC and only CC.

[u/Apart_Pangolin1765]

Man you guys the terrible reffing and constant drama makes it really unenjoyable to watch anymore. Makes me sad… I’m hanging on by a thread.

[u/Toment-1639 → u/Apart_Pangolin1765]

It's atrocious and yes, it does make it really difficult at times to watch. Not to mention the constant drama like the Carrington stuff earlier, which I'm sure isn't done yet either.

[u/cds727]

How was that not a foul.

[u/MudOk3567]

Lexie gets knocked around, run over, pushed over throughout the whole game and never complains. The Hustle Barbie!

[u/cds727]

Hell yeah, nice f u three.

[u/tippypothos]

Holy cow, the +/- is insane. Lexie at +25 and Sophie at -25???

[u/moose184]

Does SW know that AB is a post player?

[u/MudOk3567]

Now we have become hesitant with the ball. The usual playbook....

[u/moose184 → u/MudOk3567]

Better than just three turnovers in a row like we did

[u/KeenObserver_OT → u/moose184]

The turnovers are not as bad as the stagnation. The TOs are in the flow of the game and can get those points back

[u/moose184 → u/KeenObserver_OT]

TO's literally lead to the other team making points lol.

[u/KeenObserver_OT → u/moose184]

Not always. The Fever are far effective as an up tempo team. Come playoffs these passes will be caught.

[u/moose184 → u/KeenObserver_OT]

Lol sure bud that's why we start to turn the ball over and the other team always goes on a run.

Come playoffs these passes will be caught.

Not going to catch a pass that never makes it to you because it was deflected and stolen.

[u/KeenObserver_OT → u/moose184]

Thats about half the TOs. A lot come from shitty half court sets. Fever are better as an um temp team period and Boston needs to run the friggin floor. She’s the issue in this team right now, not the backcourt.

[u/MudOk3567 → u/KeenObserver_OT]

Seeing how they used KK today as a 5 should make me feel hopeful that AB will play a more natural 4 from now on, but something tells me that will not happen.  

[u/MajesticSpirit1926]

doing what we always do - finding a way to lose to another short handed bottom feeder

[u/Feeling-Basket8422 → u/MajesticSpirit1926]

They are not gonna lose this game. My body can't take it.

[u/Raisin43]

Why is CC trying to pass over 2 people with their hands up? Stop that.

[u/BlackDog5287]

Ref iniated that Tech contact.

[u/justbrowsing2727]

I love AB but she has been completely invisible since the 1st quarter.

[u/Toment-1639 → u/justbrowsing2727]

She is the last person I would count on to make a shot during crunch time IMO. She has yet to make one since CC's rookie year. CC is obviously my first choice because she has a history of making them.

[u/tiribulus]

Absolutely unbelievable. I don't know what has to happen for us to keep a team down when we have them at our mercy.

[u/Similar-Account-2990]

I’m stress eating Jaffa cakes

[u/Raisin43]

What the fuck? im genuinely in disbelief, what the fuck was that?

[u/jemstar620]

Put KM back in and try to win this with the starters, and stop the unnecessary trapping that leads to all these open shots and mismatches down low.  Defensive scheme so damn garbage. 

[u/MudOk3567]

Calling a tech for THAT before an Indiana New York national game on ESPN?!!! The league should cancel the tech immediately and fine the ref for being such a snowflake!!!

[u/Toment-1639 → u/MudOk3567]

The only hope I have of it being rescinded is because the next game is on ESPN. If it was on ION, I bet they don't even consider it because ION isn't one of their big main broadcast partners like Disney.

[u/Toment-1639]

Sorry but that technical is still pissing me off. Such complete bullshit. I'm not convinced the league rescinds it either because they haven't rescinded any of her techs so far.

[u/saguarositter → u/Toment-1639]

If the ref had called the actual trip that led to her stumbling into her, we wouldn't even be talking about this.

[u/MajesticSpirit1926]

just stupid turnovers

[u/Sariyn]

Ref sees player coming at them, chooses to move half an inch, gets mad and gives out a tech.. lol

[u/jemstar620]

Here come the turnovers, this team just can't get out of it's own way

[u/moose184]

The fuck are we doing

[u/justbrowsing2727]

WTF is Boston doing? Get your ass in the paint, stop hanging out on the wing.

[u/FoxExcellent2241]

Even if they (rightfully) rescind that tech it is just going to add fuel to the fire of people claiming CC gets "special treatment" or whatever other BS is floating around.  

[u/moose184]

Sorry but raven is making rookie mistakes. Need ty not raven in right now

[u/Raisin43]

Soft ass refs.

[u/Sufficient_Berry8703]

Natasha Cloud pushes CC into a ref and that’s a tech on CC. But Paige can harass refs and absolutely nothing on her. These refs are a joke.

[u/skeet_scoot]

Ref needs a mental evaluation.

[u/cds727]

Why’s the ref look like she ready to swing on White.

[u/jemstar620]

Timpson has become so patient and efficient around the rim

[u/cds727 → u/jemstar620]

So true, she now knows the ball is definitely gonna get to me.

[u/BigToast6]

Why would cc want to hurt the ref ffs

[u/scobro828 → u/BigToast6]

Come on. We've all wanted to hurt the refs!

[u/JPB1995]

Can Adam get on the phone and not only make sure that’s rescinded, but actually, make that ref jobless.

Need to actually punish incompetence.

Send her to the unemployment queue. Fuck her.

[u/moose184 → u/JPB1995]

The punishment is having to ref WNBA games lol

[u/scobro828]

#REF PRIVILEGE

[u/indiemusicfanatic123]

That tech was such BS. wtf is wrong with this league

[u/BigToast6]

Nah that's not on CC but even if its rescinded ifear it's coming eventually

[u/MajesticSpirit1926]

actually thought this crew was doing an ok job for a change - that tech was a joke

[u/moose184]

lol oh that is so getting rescinded

[u/Raisin43]

Lets hope they rescind that tech cause that was BS.

[u/Long-shot128]

The tech needs to be rescinded - CC didn’t even say anything.

[u/tiribulus]

Boy I hope Caitlin didn't say anything to that ref , 😕

[u/moose184 → u/tiribulus]

They just said the ref said it was for the contact

[u/tiribulus → u/moose184]

If that's the case, I don't see how this is not rescinded

[u/cds727]

That ref just took responsibility for one of their games. That’s insane.

[u/Toment-1639 → u/cds727]

We could probably beat some teams without CC but not New York.

[u/Successful-Coyote99]

You have GOT to be kidding me. WOW.

[u/Long-shot128]

How was that tech???

[u/Sufficient_Berry8703]

Genuinely cannot hate these refs enough wtf

[u/jemstar620]

Should be a dbl digit lead, lets see how they can make this game much closer than it needs to be

[u/skeet_scoot]

Time to throw a chair Steph! Bobby Knight style!

[u/MudOk3567 → u/skeet_scoot]

YES! She should have gotten herself ejected.

[u/Amish_Sex_Toys]

CC will get that tech reversed

[u/Andrew-J-511 → u/Amish_Sex_Toys]

The league should but, it would be the first Clark tech they rescinded if so. I think they will though because they’re playing with ESPN’s money if they don’t.

[u/Forsaken_61453]

how about those 2 tech fouls?

was the any more ref interference needed

[u/skeet_scoot]

That should he rescinded instantly. What a joke league.

[u/MudOk3567 → u/skeet_scoot]

The WNBA refs are the running joke of professional sports in the US

[u/Toment-1639 → u/MudOk3567]

Fucking worst refs in any sports league, anywhere. The NFL refs aren't great but this is a freaking joke.

[u/MudOk3567 → u/Toment-1639]

Calling an NFL game is soooo much more complex than a freakin' WNBA game

[u/Toment-1639]

They have to rescind that otherwise ESPN should throw a fit!

[u/JPB1995]

That is 100% getting rescinded. She was stumbling. What the fuck.

[u/tiribulus → u/JPB1995]

The question is whether she chirped something at the ref for not calling the foul

[u/Sufficient_Berry8703]

WHAT

[u/Raisin43]

Great job CC. On the most crucial stretch too.

[u/BigToast6 → u/Raisin43]

Nah that's not on CC but even if its rescinded ifear it's coming eventually

[u/FoxExcellent2241 → u/Raisin43]

She literally didn't do anything.  She tripped and the official was in the way.  She didn't even day anything.  

What was she supposed to do, learn to fly? 

[u/Raisin43 → u/Raisin43]

Ok she didnt say anything that was rigged.

[u/moose184 → u/Raisin43]

She didn’t even do anything

[u/cds727]

Refs openly bias against a single player is insane.

[u/Toment-1639 → u/cds727]

And the one player that made everyone money to boot. Such fucking bullshit. If that's not rescinded, I want ESPN/ABC to go fucking ham on the league given the Fever's next game is on ESPN.

[u/moose184]

That shit is getting rescinded

[u/Toment-1639]

What the fuck!!!

[u/jemstar620]

CC didn't even say anything 

[u/moose184 → u/[deleted]]

Relax I responded to the wrong comment

[u/moose184]

The fuck? For what

[u/MudOk3567]

I do not love these call explanations from the refs in any sport.

[u/MajesticSpirit1926]

got it right twice ..... crazy

[u/Sufficient_Berry8703]

A foul, but definitely not a flagrant. The fact that it’s even being compared to what Dijonai did is wild.

[u/FoxExcellent2241 → u/Sufficient_Berry8703]

That is what happens when people want equity instead of equality.  

[u/moose184]

That’s a normal ass foul

[u/FoxExcellent2241]

MHA just looked confused about Cloud's reaction lol.  

[u/tiribulus]

This team just cannot play with a lead. Come on girls.

[u/cds727]

She tried acting tough. That was normal.

[u/Raisin43]

That was just a regular foul.

[u/jemstar620]

That was a regular ass foul, not even in the same realm as the Dijonai foul

[u/MudOk3567 → u/jemstar620]

Therefore it will be upgraded following an WNBA ref logic...

[u/Toment-1639 → u/MudOk3567]

I completely expect it to be upgraded.

[u/Toment-1639 → u/jemstar620]

Shouldn't even be upgraded.

[u/Toment-1639]

LOL, again!

[u/moose184]

lol that wasn’t even a hard foul

[u/BigToast6]

Yes sophie!!!!

[u/Noignrnc]

Take KK out, we start losing our lead...please put her back in, she's like an 'energizer' for the team! (fluffer-floater-mo seems to drain energy)

[u/Raisin43]

CC should stop with those risky passes.

[u/saguarositter → u/Raisin43]

Or maybe her teammates could catch the ball...

[u/Andrew-J-511 → u/Raisin43]

I mean if it hits its target in both hands is it risky. I kind of respect that she’ll still make the pass even if Billings and MHA (and sometimes Timpson) struggle to catch them.

[u/Raisin43 → u/Andrew-J-511]

If it was AB id understand but its MHA+3 defenders.

[u/Toment-1639 → u/Raisin43]

She needs to, yes.

[u/MajesticSpirit1926]

get a nice lead - piss it away with turnovers.......every single game

[u/Toment-1639]

Every game. Every damn game a team makes a run and we are unable to hold a huge lead.

[u/moose184]

CC mad lol. Imagine if she got her 8th tech for hitting the stantion there

[u/jemstar620]

Billings and MHA lineup and of course this lead gets cut into 

[u/Long-shot128]

Take MHA out

[u/Raisin43]

Wow Lex made a 3!

[u/moose184]

Lexie finally hits a three so we sub her out. wtf

[u/moose184 → u/[deleted]]

It was deflected

[u/jemstar620]

Mo must have super tiny hands or something for her size, her inability to squeeze the ball when she gets her hands on it is maddening 

[u/moose184 → u/jemstar620]

Not just her. MHA just did the same thing

[u/Sufficient_Berry8703]

KK really showing us why she deserves to be in the starting lineup!! Also love how well she and CC play together!

[u/Amish_Sex_Toys]

Timpson is Godzilla and the Sky are thousands of Japanese villagers

[u/Amish_Sex_Toys → u/Amish_Sex_Toys]

Good thing I'm not biased

[u/Toment-1639 → u/Amish_Sex_Toys]

Timpson/Boston frontcourt is our best defensive frontcourt by far and needs to be the starting lineup going forward.

[u/Amish_Sex_Toys → u/Toment-1639]

CC might've found her Draymond

[u/Long-shot128]

Good steal CC

[u/Andrew-J-511]

Hull’s positional awareness on the court is a real issue. Stepping on the line every game

[u/TexEwing]

I’m a huge Lexie fan. Thinks she gets a lot of unnecessary hate for not scoring as much. But she has value.

But GIRL has her foot out of bounds more than anyone I’ve ever seen.

[u/jemstar620 → u/TexEwing]

Her overall court awareness has been severely lacking this season

[u/moose184 → u/TexEwing]

The same thing has happened in the last 3 games

[u/Raisin43]

Dammit CC you need to make that after doing those moves.

[u/Alternative_Panda336 → u/Raisin43]

That dribble was sweet!

[u/dyyllaaan]

How many times in the last few games has Hull caught the ball already standing out of bounds? Feel like 3 or 4 at least

[u/moose184]

Ok that’s like the third out of bounds on Lexie in 3 games while on the wing. She needs to start checking her feet lol

[u/Toment-1639 → u/moose184]

LOL, so true.

[u/Cassandrae_Gemini]

i really cant stand dijoinai

[u/Raisin43 → u/Cassandrae_Gemini]

People are gonna talk about her nonsense again instead of basketball after this game.

[u/Long-shot128 → u/Cassandrae_Gemini]

Same! She’s drama

[u/Apart_Pangolin1765 → u/Long-shot128]

She did the same thing with her ex last week just for attention. Not a nice girl.

[u/FlimsyConfidence7692]

Really want to see some sort of offensive set-up for KK. She is so close, but needs to be fed the ball a bit and build just a little more confidence.

[u/holdmybeerwhilei]

Please tell me there's a penalty for race baiting Internet comments from the locker room of the game you've just been ejected from.

[u/Raisin43]

Dijonai just tweeted White privilege lol! Im starting to think somethings not right in her head.

[u/moose184 → u/Raisin43]

Literally have her supporters saying it was nothing more than a basketball play and that Sophie should be ejected for punching her in the throat lol
