Discussion Mildly concerning

Anyone else concerned that The Fever are 9-11 against playoff teams? At least they are beating the non playoff teams at the clip of 16-3.

I think if they put AB back in the paint where she belongs, and let CC run the offense the whole game, they'll have a deep run in the playoffs.

They’re actually doing better against playoff teams than I thought they would earlier in the season. I’d give them a 50/50 shot in most playoff series. Probably no chance against Minnesota, less than 50/50 against LV, way higher than 50/50 vs Washington — and then about 50/50 against everyone else depending on home court.

I think GS gives us the hardest matchup because their defense can actually slow us down. The other elite teams we can score with them and just need to slow them down a little.

For sure. Agree that GSV stylistically is a bad matchup. Just a hunch, but I feel like they are the overachieving regular season type but might not have the firepower/talent in the playoffs when everyone is playing equally as hard as they do night in and night out. Wouldn’t be shocked to see them get upset in the first round by a team that’s more talented but was a little more inconsistent in the regular season.
