I didn't imply late clock strategy to be "the league".
I was talking about the open court dynamic

Unless they're a Wisconsin player........then it's absolutely their fault, and they deserved it.
Explain the wonderful job they did this off season "rounding out the team"?
Not to mention you could clearly see in the replay she lifted her shoulder into Clark
I think she's locked longer then that as a "restricted" FA. The Fever can match any offer in less they decide to let her walk. At that point they better trade her and get some value or the fans will burn down Gainbridge.

Taking stress off CC allows the rest of the team to round out (develop), while preserving her health.
Why is it that no one ever seems to have a clue what I'm talking about?
I didn't say anything about the offseason.

Back to the turnover debate. John Wooden stated:
His teams played on the edge - never conservative or safe.
I just looked at the Final Four box scores for four of his best national championship teams from 1968 - 1971. Those teams averaged 21.25 turnovers a game in thier 8 Final Four games. It's an amazing stat for UCLA teams as talented and well-coached as those. Here are the games and TO stats -
1967 – 68
v. Houston – 23 TOs
v. North Carolina – 26 TOs
1968-69
v. Drake – 21 TOs
v. Purdue – 19 TOs
1969-70
v. New Mexico State – 20 TOs
v. Jacksonville – 23 TOs
1970-71
v. Kansas – 24 TOs
Villanova – 14 TOs
It's no coincidence that the WNBA TO leaders are all among the league's top players.
I swear, some people seem to think zero turnovers for a point guard is the ideal. It's not.
“If you’re not making mistakes, then you’re not doing anything. I’m positive that a doer makes mistakes.” –Coach John Wooden
He also said he wanted his teams to have about 12-14 turnovers a game.His teams played on the edge - never conservative or safe.

Yes, FINALLY. Even as you stumble around here, you finally tripped over the answer. "WHY is it NO one ever seems to have a clue what I'm talking about". EXACTLY. And yet YOU think that out of all the posters, somehow they, us, whomever are ALL wrong and incapable of understanding, and YOU alone are the coherent singular being, That has to be the very definition of a narcissist.....
What I said wasn't confusing at all.
Completely obvious opportunity for you to admit that you simply weren't reading closely enough, and misunderstood what was said.
Instead, you pull this garbage.
And it is garbage, because I write plenty clearly enough.
For most, it's something best called, "triggered reading". It's something I never knew existed, before posting on this board.
I can't speak for why others don't read well enough. But for most of them, it seems at this point, that anything and everything posted by Eyes, brings a visceral reaction that literally robs them of their reading comprehension.
Quite sad actually. You guys keep echoing off the walls off the ladies room, though. When people start challenging the actual content of my posts, rather than nitpicking semantics, or reacting to me pleading for them to read better, is when I might start to wonder if some of my sentiments are at all off base
checked stats for CC against Sun. How in the H..L can a point guard go thru a game (36 minutes) without being fouled once for a free thro. That should be enough proof for the WNBA that the refs need a BIG change.
Griner sets screens the way an offensive lineman attacks a blocking sled in football practice.
I don't use X, but I saw this concerning KM's handles LOL. Video set at it.
This is asinine, as are most of your posts.
CC has the 2nd highest usage % in the WNBA this season (which would also rank her top 25 all time) and you constantly whine about her hot having the ball enough.
And you think the Fever will trade her after next season?

More nonsense from you. Her PER is 19.7, which is 2nd on the Fever behind Boston's 23.7
She's not even close to the top 10 in the league:
Wilson 32.17
Plum 27.72
Howard 26.51
Miles 24.41
Mack 23.92
Shepard 23.89
Boston
Sabally 23.09
Stewart 23.03
Iriafen 23.38

Reese with another monster 15 point 17 rebound double double
Shot 31.6% from the floor (6-19). 3-6 on FTs.
All 19 of her shot attempts were within 4 feet of the basket and she still managed to miss 13 of them. How is it even possible that a professional basketball player is that horrible at shooting layups?
That ain't hating. That's a reasonable critique.
Missing layups in the WNBA is more common than mosquitos in the summer.
Here's a math quiz.
If it takes Angel Reese 19 shots to scorce 12 points, how many shots would it take Angel to break Diana Tursa's single game
scoring record of 47 points?

Today's votes:
The ONLY PERSON OF 3 in the league averaging a double double.

If my math is correct 74.6 shots.
Good thing she's not out there to shoot like DT.
Maybe someone should tell her that. Diana Taurasi career average was 13.9 shots attempts per game. Angel threw up 19 last night.
I'm was way more impresed with Dennis Rodman's game. During his career he had seven games with 20+ rebounds with no points. In fact, during a two-game stretch in 1993, he grabbed 25 rebounds in one game and 24 rebounds in the next, finishing both games with exactly 0 points.
Maybe someone should tell her! Can't believe no one has thought of that yet.
Reese vs. Boston could be very entertaining (and possibly decisive) in the upcoming Fever vs. Dream series.
Reese is averaging 16/14 over the last 6 games (vs. TOR,NY,CHI,WASH,IND,CON)
Boston is averaging 18.5/9 over the last 6 (vs. CON,CHI,NY,ATL,WASH,PORT)
Reese has been dominating ORBs lately and Boston has missed a higher number of layups the past few games. Reverse those trends and Fever have a much better chance to post a W.

Boston has been on fire lately. Last matchup Rhyne Howard was ice cold. Gray was also a little off. If Dream want any chance at winning it will be through them and lesser through Reese.
It's too bad this awesome Caitlin Clark thread is being wrecked with all the Angel Reece crap.
Can we just stop please.
If you want to start a thread for Angel Reece, have at it. I will be happy to never read it
