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

[hawkeyewx]

The Fever have to get something from Lexi on offense. Her shooting continues to be frigid. She's not even close on most of her shots. Otherwise, the Fever are hanging in very well considering the Aces are red hot from outside.

 

[hawkeyewx]

Every time Howard shoots a 3 my kids cat takes off running when I scream at the TV.

Howard shooting threes is like Nalyssa Smith shooting threes last year. Sure, she'll hit one once in a while, but it's a low % shot.

Indy turned it over 10 times. Vegas turned it over twice. However, Vegas only scored 2 points off the Indy turnovers, where Indy scored 11 points off the Vegas turns. Indy was 12-15 from the line and Vegas was 6-8 from the line. Let's see if the FT attempts begin to even out in the 2nd half. Indy rebounding well with 22 and Vegas with 10.

 

[Hawksfor3]

Howard, Boston, and Lexi have to pick up their scoring in the 2nd half to have a chance. So far, only 15 total points from the three of them combined.

Indy scored 11 points off 2 vegas turnovers...wut

AB continues to defend A'ja pretty well. She's forcing her to take a lot of fade-away jumpers.

My bad. Vegas had 4 turns.

13 shots and 6 free throws to get 14 pts

 

[Manfredi]

oh Lexie

 

[Tenacious E_rivals41982]

These refs.

 

[AFM22]

LV coming out wanting it more. Tough break for Gray, hope she can return.

 

[Tenacious E_rivals41982]

Two plays in a row where the aces players lowered her shoulder charging into fever players and it gets called on Indy.

 

[Manfredi]

Fever have nobody that can guard Young.

 

[Hawksfor3]

Good to see Howard take it strong to the hoop.

 

[Tenacious E_rivals41982]

The fix is in.

 

[Hawksfor3]

Young and Wilson with 18 apiece.

 

[hawkeyewx]

Few things drive me crazy more than fouling on an easy layup. Reaching in is begging the ref to call a foul on top of the easy basket.

 

[hawkeyewx]

The Aces are going to make anyone but KM beat them. KM's defenders are glued to her.

 

[Hawksfor3]

Uh Oh. 5 on AB.

 

[Hawksfor3]

Personals even at 13.

 

[hawkeyewx]

AB now has 5 fouls with 15 minutes left. That's a problem.

 

[AFM22]

AB with 5 fouls and KM with a knee injury? This game's over.

 

[hawkeyewx]

Lexi Hull was 9-20 from three in the first three games of the series. The last two she's 1-12.

 

[hawkeyewx]

Crap. Something bad happened to Kelsey. They just brought out the stretcher. The Fever will need a miracle to win now.

 

[Hawksfor3]

What were you thinking, Lexi?

 

[namenoonechose]

It’s about to get ugly. Guess I’ll go dig out the Christmas lights. See y’all next May.

 

[WDSMHawk]

Good news is Kelsey didn't need the stretcher bad news is she couldn't put any weight on her left leg as she was helped off the court.

 

[Hawksfor3]

Get stops!

 

[AFM22]

Good news is Kelsey didn't need the stretcher bad news is she couldn't put any weight on her left leg as she was helped off the court.

I have it on mute, and I'm also not a doctor, but looked like a kneecap/meniscus dislocation. Maybe locked up on her when she stopped when the play went dead.

 

[hawkeyewx]

A Fever player just stepped into the lane early and took away a point. That's the kind of stuff you just can't do on the road in game 5.

 

[AFM22]

A'ja's def getting her special whistle rn.

 

[Manfredi]

For a veteran, Howard's BB IQ is not real good.

 

[hawkeyewx]

The Fever are really hurting themselves with a bunch of sloppy mistakes.

The Fever are really hurting themselves with a bunch of sloppy mistakes.

Honestly, it's wild to me that LV isn't really setting up any plays with the Fever running a skeleton crew. They're just kind of dickin' around on the perimeter and then launching and missing 3s.

 

[hawkeyewx]

Chelsie Gray is so good at that shot.

 

[Hawksfor3]

Peddy with a nice 3.

 

[hawkeyewx]

Major Kudos to Shey Peddy for coming in and hitting some shots.

Major Kudos to Shey Peddy for coming in and hitting some shots.

She's 2-3 from 3 so far.

 

[hawkeyewx]

Has A'ja missed a shot in the second half? She's lighting the Fever up.

 

[Hawksfor3]

7 points for Boston.
