***CC22 and the Fever mega thread***

Now, everyone root for Seattle to win tonight.

Why not miss the 2nd foul shot on purpose

Yes. Poor coaching. 1.2 on the clock with no full timeouts, and 1 reset timeout. Miss the 2nd ft and no way they get a shot off. Chance of a rebound on the miss also. Dumb.

They did that in another game and the other team was still able to get the rebound and call a reset timeout with no time coming off the clock.

LOFL

 

[EdgarAllenPodolak]

Okay, maybe this has been covered, but do we want them to win it all without CC? Make the finals yes, but I’d prefer they get over the hump with Clark.

 

[hawkeyewx]

Rats! The Storm had a shot to win in the last ten seconds, but missed. It will be Fever @ Aces.

Those lights went out QUICK

 

[Matt1nb7]

Insanely close to Storm vs Fever

I thought so too. Stadium operator does that a half a second sooner before the buzzer sounds and things get real awkward.

Any chance Clark comes back ?

did she tear a muscle off the bone?

Clark is not on the active roster for the playoffs. Even if she is 100% healthy and ready to play, she can't.

I think Coach White deserves some credit for getting this wounded team to the playoffs and making the semi's It will take some hard decisions on who will make next fall's roster with how well some of the add-ons have played.

Agree 100%. Some of these old warhorses we acquired made some big plays and played really tough last night. While Sims struggled the first 2 games she is a tough customer. Peddy with a huge 3 late in the game. Nice minutes from Powers last night as well, I really like her defensively and she's tough.

AIRBHG has moved on to richer hunting grounds and settled on the fever.

You've angered it -- This is all your fault!

 

[Franisdaman]

Announced attendance (total tickets sold & distirbuted) for the deciding GAME 3 was just 3,800.

Fever win 87-85 & advance to the semi-finals against Las Vegas.

3,800? Shocked. Well, the league made $200 on CC's fine, so it wasn't a total bust.

Why shocked?

 

[Hawksfor3]

Why shocked?

Shocked, I tell you.

 

[Hawksfor3]

Let's get ready for Fever Basketball!

 

[Hawksfor3]

Wilson with the "Angel Reese". I like it.

 

[Hawksfor3]

Meg in for the Aces.

 

[Hawksfor3]

Meg hits 2 from the line.

 

[hawkeyewx]

Such a good start for the Fever, but then they crapped the bed over the last three minutes of the first quarter.

 

[Hawksfor3]

End of the 1st 19-18 Indy. Momentum shift early for Indy and late for the Aces.

 

[hawkeyewx]

Damn, the Fever have gone ice cold. They are just missing decent shots. 11-0 run for the Aces.

 

[Hawksfor3]

Boston with the elbow. Now, Howard out of control. Come on White. Settle them down and play with focus.

 

[Hawksfor3]

Wilson with a flop move while untouched. LMAO.

 

[hawkeyewx]

Becky Hammon has such a disgusted look on her face at all times. It's not pretty.

I think it's beautiful.

 

[hawkeyewx]

I think it's beautiful.

Certainly, the Fever would love to turn that disgusted look up to 11.

The Fever continue to get good looks. They just need to make them.

 

[Hawksfor3]

Keep an eye on Ref #38. She's Kryptonite for Indy.

 

[hawkeyewx]

Can't be missing bunny layups like KM just did.

 

[hawkeyewx]

The 13-0 Aces run sucked, but, overall, a good first half by the Fever.

 

[Legend12]

Do we think WNBA players will ever learn to force Mitchell to go right when they close out?

Generally speaking, no.

 

[Hawksfor3]

Boston, Sims, and Lexi 8 points combined.

 

[Hawksfor3]

Wilson gets Howard with 9 inch nails.

 

[hawkeyewx]

KM is having no trouble blowing by the Aces defenders.

If only there was something they could do to slow her down.

 

[hawkeyewx]

Sims has been a great addition to the Fever. She is playing very well.
