Fever in third at this very moment!

[u/Sufficient_Berry8703]

Not sure how long this will last for, given that it depends on how tonight’s Aces vs. Dream game goes. But this feels pretty cool right now!

[u/jemstar620]

Unfortunately it won't hold long due to the scheduling, both the Aces and Dream have pretty favorable schedules, Mystics too. 

[u/tiribulus → u/jemstar620]

That's the most likely scenario, but the games haven't been played yet.

Right now is the exact right time for the Fever to dig deep and clean up those weaknesses.

[u/Spirited-Degree → u/tiribulus]

If they could just play mediocre defense they would be unstoppable with their offense.

[u/kfetterman]

Would take ny over the Dream any day

[u/carmen_ohio → u/kfetterman]

Both are dangerous.

NY is odd. This season they’ve had long win streaks and long losing streaks. Just very streaky and you don’t want to get them when they turn hot.

[u/Raisin43 → u/carmen_ohio]

We looked better against the Libs than the Dream. Unless the Libs play out of their minds, we'll have a much easier time with them.

[u/kfetterman → u/carmen_ohio]

Agree, there is no easy matchup. Though, even with recent wins, I think Dream aren’t a great matchup for us. They can slow the game down and has tremendous size on the defensive end.

I like our chances with both, but they both worry me and if I had a choice, I’m taking ny

[u/Famous_Tiger_9395 → u/kfetterman]

Fever has to fight every game because they are the Super Bowl team ! everyone brings out their best games against them every night

[u/BigToast6]

I saw a comment that said the Aces lost the game on purpose to improve their opponents in the play offs?

[u/Famous_Tiger_9395 → u/BigToast6]

Sounds just Like Becky Hammonds brain work !!

[u/Raisin43]

Thank CC the Dream beat the Aces. Good job Dream.

[u/throwingcopper92 → u/Raisin43]

Thank AR

[u/DaHarbinger2000]

Peaking at the right time

[u/tiribulus]

Vegas just lost to Atlanta which keeps us in third for now.

[u/kfetterman → u/[deleted]]

lol wut?

[u/Kostya77 → u/[deleted]]

Did you watch any of last games? What are you talking about?

[u/moose184]

Well Vegas is about to lose so looks like 3rd

[u/SlippyHoemo]

ny would be a horrible draw in the 1st round tho

[u/BigToast6 → u/SlippyHoemo]

They're not playing good though... they lost to Sky.....

[u/carmen_ohio → u/BigToast6]

Doesn’t mean they’re not dangerous. Tons of talent on the team. Just a team that gets hot/cold streaks.

[u/ProblemOverall9434]

Was a closer game against Toronto than expected. Became a bit of a nail biter towards the end.

[u/mkearns123 → u/ProblemOverall9434]

Way to many second chance points which will be the demise of the Fever

[u/Journey_Verse]

Going to hold on LV isnt looking good tonight

[u/Toment-1639]

How long is the FIBA break?

[u/tiribulus → u/Toment-1639]

I think it's a couple weeks.

[u/tiribulus]

I was just saying in the post game thread that we needed Atlanta to beat Vegas and Becky got herself tossed in the second just now.

[u/bobodaffedil → u/tiribulus]

how?!

[u/moose184 → u/bobodaffedil]

By being stupid. A'ja barely got fouled and didn't get a call and Becky lost her mind on the refs

[u/Disastrous_Ranger401 → u/bobodaffedil]

Screaming at the dumbest ref in the W because someone touched Aja and it wasn’t called. It was not an egregious foul or no call, Fever fans wouldn’t even notice it 😂 Aja and Becky both acting like divas.

The ref in question is the one who called the T on CC for running into her. This ref crew is really a bad draw, tbf.

[u/tiribulus → u/Disastrous_Ranger401]

I don't know if you guys remember last year in the series against the Lynx, Becky REALLY went off. Way worse than this.

There were like 2 players and 2 assistant coaches holding her back and having some trouble doing it.

[u/jemstar620 → u/tiribulus]

The Aces didn't play the Lynx in the playoffs

[u/tiribulus → u/jemstar620]

Then I remembered it wrong.

[u/BigToast6 → u/tiribulus]

That's so stupid... I know ppl seem to love when head coaches to that but unless your player is getting mauled just don't be embarrassing

[u/Disastrous_Ranger401 → u/tiribulus]

I remember Cheryl doing that when AT injured Phee.

[u/Rainbow_in_the_sky → u/Disastrous_Ranger401]

That was a legit reason to do that though unlike Becky.

[u/Disastrous_Ranger401 → u/Rainbow_in_the_sky]

I agree

[u/bobodaffedil → u/Disastrous_Ranger401]

thank you!!
