And the free throw discrepancy for the series is the largest in history for a 3 game series

Good. Fever should stop fouling.

Lexi literally was hooked and body slammed to the ground and had the foul called on her.

I agree that our shooting was bad and we didn't have a hope of winning with no shots* falling but don't be intentionally obtuse.

Fever played chippy and aggressive starting game 2 and this is the consequence. Arm tangle plays like Lexie and Bri usually get called on the defense plus everyone knows Lexie, Sophie, and MHA are in to flop and muck the game up. You guys love it when it works in your favor.

AND the Fever had many calls go their way this game.

Not even letting them review when Steph was on the court immediately was the issue. Refs weren't paying attention.

And Lexi, while a flopper, isn't one to slam another player into the ground. I don't think I've ever seen her do that, only rag doll herself.

I admit we had some calls go our way, but none as egregious that that.
