To the bar?No. I’m gonna go for a late night run
***CC22 and the Fever mega thread***
- Thread starter LetsGoHawks83

Dallas played good defense tonight.
Just seemed a step slow all night. Didn’t take a lot of bad or rushed shots. Got swatted a few times by their big, which did seem to affect her a bit.
How far the Fever go is going to be dependent on how they rebound/not give up 2nd shots. Right now it is horrendous.
Most were were good. Missed a couple open 3s. Had her shot swatted at least three times when she tried to drive into the paint.
Had one bad "heat check" in the 4th
Something the Fever are incapable of doing. It’s a shame really, with just a middle of the pack defense they’re the best team in the league.
Mitchell + Clark scored 47 points. There’s that….
It looks like Arike blowing up in the second half was a big reason for the Wings win. Shepard only had about 4 points in the second half, but she handed the baton to Arike.
Fever bench +/-, -30. Dallas +26
Sounds like a good game for me to miss. Thanks, Prime. I'm running back to the bar!
Just put the Niners game on. Gotta get a look at Brock Purdy. GK tonight?? Don't know.
CC and Paige combined to shoot 9-31.
KM must have driven to the basket a lot because she shot a ton of FTs.

She was due for a cool down. She's been on fire the last 10 games.
Best case is he is back for game 1 of the regular season...not definite though
Bet most of the stories tomorrow will just be about how bad CLARK shot the ball....
Reese- 18 points at Halftime. 8 for 8 FGAs including 2-2 from behind the arc. 6 boards, 5 assists.
And then they come back and win while I'm watching the niners chargers game.
Ok i was pickleball league night where the waitresses have tazers… what on earth happened? All my YouTubers say it was a disaster
Sorry you can't deal with the truth. And Clarks the victim, not me, but as usual your delusional thought process.....
Damn, the world is coming to an end......
Boston has to go.
Body wise, she should dominate on defense.
Just a slug playing out of position.
In case anyone is still doubting who is the face of the WNBA and who made everyone a lot richer this season....
Overall, the 12-largest WNBA viewing audiences since 2000 have occurred in the past 3 seasons, each involving Caitlin Clark — nine Fever games, her two appearances in the All-Star Game and the 2024 WNBA Draft in which she was selected first overall.
Sunday Aug 16, 2026’s Fever-Dream WNBA regular season game averaged 2.58 million viewers on ESPN, marking the largest WNBA audience of any kind ever on cable. The previous high was 2.54 million for Fever-Sun Game 2 in the first round of the 2024 playoffs, Caitlin Clark’s most-recent playoff game. Indiana’s win, which peaked with four million viewers in the 7:15 PM ET quarter-hour, was the 8th game this season to average at least 2.4 million viewers — doubling the previous 25 seasons combined. (Note that this is the first WNBA season since Nielsen shifted to its new “Big Data + Panel” methodology and the second since it expanded its out-of-home viewing sample to cover 100 percent of markets in the lower 48 states. It is likely that some games from the prior two seasons would have hit that mark under the same conditions.)

Go where? And who will replace her??
Even if they could find a better option, they're pretty tied to that contract now. In games where everyone is clicking her shooting three's looks good. When they're not shooting well they need her on the inside to rebound. I still think they need a true 5 and she'd be a really solid 4, but I think with her contract, if they keep Mitchell, and what they'll have to pay Clark, their only shot is to draft a really good post as a rookie next season, maybe from over seas. Lots of other teams seem to have figured that out.
So when does Enes Kanter Freedom get to join the league?
I hope the WNBA fails to settle their discussion on trans-inclusion, allowing Enes to enter and single-handedly destroy each opposing team.

Really thoughtful post.
The shooting coach comment was a question. Not a statement. She will have more good games but she's inconsistant.. Take a deep breath it's all good.
I went with bourbon but each his own. : )
