Poor guy. LOL

And GS plays in a brand new arena. How in the world are the game & shot clocks not working?

The point is that what matters is the next 4 games for the fever and the sparks. Fever have to match their performance over the next 4 games.

When it comes to a magic number & LA, I believe it is 4 for the Fever; so any combination of Fever wins + LA losses where that number reaches a total of 4? The Fever are in the playoffs.

4 teams are batting for positioning; crazy that, coming into today, Seattle has 3 games left and LA has 6.

Place.....Losses........Team.................Games Left
6th.............18..............Golden State...........5
7th.............19..............Seattle.......................3
8th.............19..............Indiana......................4
9th.............20..............Los Angeles.............6

As soon as I saw that during the game, I thought man, I feel sorry for that guy.

If my math is correct, the Fever are 3 games above .500 with CC and 1 game under without her. Regardless, it will be interesting to see what the Fever execs do in the offseason..

Did Woliczko get an autograph from Caitlin Clark? At least dad should ask for one.

The Sparks won @ Seattle tonight, which tightens the standings a bit more. While this keeps the Sparks in the playoff race, it also improves the Fever's chance of finishing ahead of Seattle and grabbing the 7 seed. The Fever would certainly help themselves if they can beat the Sky and Mystics.

Exactly one month ago the Las Vegas Aces were 14 - 14 after losing to the Lynx by 53 points at home. Since then they've won 12 straight games and now have the best record in the league. Amazing.

Tied for 2nd best record in the league.

Shoot more 3's...layups are kryptonite for the Fever

 

[DTP2]

At what point do they learn that Howard going full court is a bad result 90% of the time?

 

[Legend12]

Just brutal. 3 missed bunnies,

The Fever need Mitchell to stay hot all night.

hope she shoots every time she can

 

[hawkeyewx]

Holy missed layups, Batman.

 

[DTP2]

Every missed bunny is worth three points on the other end.

 

[Legend12]

This is hard to watch.

2 turnovers on simple throw ins after made baskets.

[hawkeyewx]

Fever have been hanging in well, but it only takes one bad sequence to put them down by 8.

 

[Legend12]

The Fever need Mitchell to stay hot all night.

She struggles to consistently create her own shot as she can't do it going to her right

 

[hawkeyewx]

Jesus, Fever, way to throw the game away in 5 minutes. A ton of mistakes and every single one led to points from the Mercury. Everything they throw up is going in.

 

[DTP2]

I have never seen a team so skilled at blowing a game in a minute or two.

 

[DTP2]

I wonder how many double digit runs this team has allowed all year.

 

[hawkeyewx]

The Mercury scored 17 points in the last 3:30 of the half. It was a 3 point game at 3:30.

 

[Legend12]

Sims is 1-15 over the last 2 games.

Edit: Now 2-16

 

[hawkeyewx]

The Valkyries are destroying the Liberty tonight. They will probably be the 6 seed.

 

[IowaCityLit]

AB struggling to finish again around the basket.
. Feels like she leave so many points off the table. Would like to see her more at the top of the key.

The Mercury just have a more balanced squad. Fever will be fine if they beat the Sky and Mystics.

 

[hawkeyewx]

Dantas is adding nothing to this team. She is shooting only 23% from three and 33% overall this season, and it has been worse recently. She has only hit three shots in the last six games. She is 3-17 in that stretch.

Last season Dantas shot nearly 40% from three, so she is way down this year.
