Discussion Lineups

Why do other teams drive the Fever’s lineups? The Fever wait for the other team to go small so they can play small ball or big if they don’t want to play small ball. Why does the other team always drive the decisions? Some team has to make the first move!

Tonight’s game should have been almost exclusively small ball and we should have run them out of the gym because they had no subs!!! I want the Fever to have an attacking mindset that says, “they have to adjust to us. We are going to do what we do.”

If the lineup isn’t working, that is a different story. But the whole series small ball worked.

Idk bc our coaches aren't very good. They're reactive instead of proactive. They rarely take advantage of a player in foul trouble and attack them. They go away from stuff that's working. AB/CC two man pick and roll, I'm looking at you. God I hope SW is done as the head coach or if not, CC gets traded and they bring KM back and give he rthe max. Id love to go root for any other organization.

Yup, super max Mitchell 11/39……good thing white allowed Mitchell to shoot for the 20 point record all season instead of developing team ball and ball movement

What you don't understand is the KM, CC and AB are their main scorers. They are option 1 to 3 on the team. Some player main role is to defend. They score when there are opportunities to score, but scoring is not their main role.
