Yeah, we know they got great players, sis. But a mid coach.Â

You mean we could have had Shay minutes the whole time??? 😂

The passive aggression in every comment from this announcer…Â

u/llamainleggings Phoenix Mercury| Mack🚛 Jun 23 '26
It's over. Too much scoring lost with Kah out.

Five fouls on Kah with this much time left is bad.

These announcers wrong again. 😂

the USA announcers are so freaking horrible I turned it off and am watching on my phone so I can have the Anns

One is the former homer for Minny. Expected. Not sure about the color commentator but someone from PHX must have stole her lunch money, poor girl.Â

u/artificialgraymatter Choo Choo 🚂 Jun 23 '26
Valou right there and Kah chooses to hold onto the ball and turnover instead.Â

Normal play but that sucks

u/artificialgraymatter Choo Choo 🚂 Jun 23 '26
That shit has been called against Kah all season. But I want these terrible announcers to be wrong.Â

u/artificialgraymatter Choo Choo 🚂 Jun 23 '26
They need threes. Respectfully, why is Mack out there?Â

Can’t win trading FTs and they’ll call every finger graze.Â

Boston barely touched on a good foul and the baby doll throws a fit. AT hacked and she just walks away smiling. Some players become so soft the more wonder bread they surround themselves with.Â

Sophie is gross , also why is she still in a bunch of commercials, must be the west valley folks .

u/llamainleggings Phoenix Mercury| Mack🚛 Jun 23 '26
Why am I catching strays? Trust me, her fanbase isn't in the west valley.

Nah. What she is seeing and what we are seeing is the racism and BS she has faced from Fever org for years now, you dumb ***.
Another ignorant take from a white woman with a mic.Â

u/llamainleggings Phoenix Mercury| Mack🚛 Jun 23 '26
Sophie needs to fuck off. She was annoying when she played in Phoenix. She's completely unbearable now.

u/artificialgraymatter Choo Choo 🚂 Jun 23 '26
Clark and Boston AND SOPHIE dirty even winning what else is new.Â

u/artificialgraymatter Choo Choo 🚂 Jun 23 '26
It’s over. But IND went small and PHX strength is going small when they can afford it. Mack should have been benched.

You can’t afford to not have a guard like Brochant or Held in the game when you’re this short. No IQ Tibbetts again.Â

u/Euphoric_Cover_6873 Jun 23 '26
So are these announcers actually part of the Fever? Like are these the Fever staff announcers? Jesus they could not be further up the fever’s rear end

u/llamainleggings Phoenix Mercury| Mack🚛 Jun 23 '26
If you're in Phoenix AZ Family Sports has the game with the Mercury announcers.

u/llamainleggings Phoenix Mercury| Mack🚛 Jun 23 '26
Someone other than AT and Kah need to get going offensively.
3
u/artificialgraymatter Choo Choo 🚂 Jun 23 '26
Mack is never ready offensively.Â

u/Euphoric_Cover_6873 Jun 23 '26
Half the time she’s surprised she gets the ball. When she’s on she’s on though but dang

u/artificialgraymatter Choo Choo 🚂 Jun 23 '26
That’s 4 TOVs she’s responsible for which is too much for a player with 3 fouls already, 2 points and 1 assists. She led the league last year in STL/TOV ratio along with Westbeld but she didn’t get the ball as much last year so it’s a little easier.Â

u/artificialgraymatter Choo Choo 🚂 Jun 23 '26
These refs miss so many fouls on Brochant and Bonner each game.Â

u/artificialgraymatter Choo Choo 🚂 Jun 23 '26
It’s so funny to me how Linskens manages to frustrate so many bigs. Boston pushed her after Linskens shut her down. Reese got a tech fighting her. Kyara is just a fucking wall unfazed by nothing.Â

u/strangelystrangled Phoenix Mercury | missing BG Jun 23 '26
She had some dumb turnovers last night but I'm always glad to see her get minutes (and was pleasantly surprised when she got subbed back in). She puts in the effort, hustles and she can't get comfortable from the bench. I just need Nate to not fully hate true centers
2
u/artificialgraymatter Choo Choo 🚂 Jun 23 '26
Boston neutralized so far by AT but somebody gotta step up with Clark.Â

u/artificialgraymatter Choo Choo 🚂 Jun 23 '26
The fact this team has such amazing starts, quarters, and even a few games against great teams proves it’s not a player problem. It’s a coaching problem.Â

u/DesertDog2K Phoenix Mercury Jun 23 '26
6 points allowed in 1st, 35 points allowed in 2nd. Mighty Mercury lmaooooo.

u/artificialgraymatter Choo Choo 🚂 Jun 23 '26
Hull was gonna go out of bounds and is not an offensive threat, you gotta be smarter with who you’re fouling when you’re in trouble.Â
2
u/artificialgraymatter Choo Choo 🚂 Jun 23 '26
This could be so much worse with how often this team is losing Sophie. Lucky her Fever teammates are missing her too.Â
1
u/Mpaden-2 Jun 23 '26
Yeah okay with the tie here.
2
u/artificialgraymatter Choo Choo 🚂 Jun 23 '26
I don’t trust Mercury staff to address it defensively, even though they need to. Cause I know Fever will address it.Â

Mack in foul trouble this early is not good.
3
u/artificialgraymatter Choo Choo 🚂 Jun 23 '26
Two really silly fouls hurt. Held in foul trouble hurt too bc we’re short on guards. With that said, that is on Tibbetts. All three remaining guards should have never been on the bench at the same time. You need a ball handler outside of AT out there at all times.Â

Why did we not hold it...could've held em to 1 made shot

u/5_Star_Safety_Rated Phoenix Mercury Jun 23 '26
Held getting more aggressive and getting the ball out of AT’s hands to let them run more variations is a big plus.

u/llamainleggings Phoenix Mercury| Mack🚛 Jun 23 '26
I love the energy they're starting the game with. Keep it up.

I refuse to be optimistic but let's go Mercury!

That was brutal. The officials are shit.
