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

[Hawksfor3]

Change of topics - Chennedy Carter is still on the Aces bench. And, not at the end - she sits by the coaches. In game 3 against the Fever Becky Hammon was talking to during the game as if she were an assistant. What's going on? She's been there all season.

I remember seeing her there near the coaches. Wearing professional looking attire. I thought...what in the heck is she doing there?

She’s. Not. There.

Are you people insane?

It's assistant coach Nola Henry. She looks just like Chennedy.

I'm still reviewing the footage. There's a woman sitting on the half court side of the 2nd row of the bench area. I'm going to keep looking. Carter's face is something you never forget. If it turns out to be the woman I suspect, then she is a twin for C Carter. Or close.

Good heavens!

 

[The Big Z]

Money and a fan base larger than the whole WNBA put together for starters - the most visible player in the league as a bonus -2 years from now who will remember who the Valkyries were?

It’s not a better job.

 

[I am no one]

Good heavens!

Twins the sane one ?

 

[I am no one]

It’s not a better job.

The Fever leadership is not smart enough to hire her. CC leaves so does the viewership and the WNBA goes back to a demographic CC fans will cease following

Chennedy’s skills would be perfect to pair at SG next to CC. But she’s a head case and that wouldn’t go well.

Maybe someday she’ll mature enough and we’ll end up with a Rodman on the Bulls situation where the former Bad Boy partners with the guy he was beating up on.

It is funny how some of Clark’s biggest issues have been with players whose skills would pair perfectly with her. Carter and Reese would be great with her.

Rosalina Lee's analysis of the Fever's salaries and deficiencies is very detailed with lots of names dropped.

I wouldn't want that cheap shot artist on my team.

This is pretty incredible.

Game 1 of the WNBA SEMIFINALS! Atlanta Dream vs. New York Liberty! Angel Reese, Breanna Stewart, Sabrina Ionescu, Rhyne Howard, Jonquel Jones, Allisha Gray, Jordin Canada!!! All of that supposed STAR POWER!! Nevertheless, just 9,745 tickets were sold & distributed; not all of the 9,745 show up, however.

And the 2 Caitlin Clark regular-season games? 17,044 in attendance, both times.

Jordan would have said the same thing about having two Detroit Piston Bad Boys on his roster back in 1990. And yet Rodman and Salley were teammates of his in 1996. But, as weird as Rodman was and was quite a bit of a headcase at times, he could usually pull it together when needed and hold a roster spot for successive seasons. I honestly think Carter is far more mentally unstable and needs professional help. She’s now had 3 WNBA teams kick her off their roster. The year with the Sky, and the tackling CC incident, is the only team that hasn’t kicked her off their roster. But they decided to let her walk at the end of the season.

 

[Bro D]

Keep Sophie. We need as many people like her on the team as possible.

Do you mean tall, blonde, and hot?

It's the toxicity she brings to teams. No team wants her. Why would Indiana? She went from the Dream to the Sparks to the Sky to the Aces. China wants her. Fine. We have our hands full now. She's a nut case that can play ball, as highlighted above. I agree with you on that point.

Phil Jackson and MJ had the gravitas to hold Rodman's behavior in check. Chicago had already won 3 NBA titles and Rodman knew with that team and that coach he would be in line for more if he checked the crazy at the door. Plus Rodman was smart and didn't have a history of ruining team chemistry or team locker rooms. Carter doesn't have that ability, she's been a cancer at every WNBA team she's been with and she lacks the respect for CC that Rodman had for Jordan.

The Fever have a GM who was the Ticket Sales Manager for the Dallas Wings. They have a cabal of a front office, and coaches all connected to each other in some way from the past. A dysfunctional reunion at best when dealing with the media and the public. Cox hasn't shown the ability to assemble a playoff contending roster. She was most likely successful in managing, distributing, and selling tickets. They have a coach who hasn't shown the ability to manage her roster, develop chemistry outside of "The Big Three" and a host of other unpleasantries which I don't have the time or patience to deal with right now. I can't imagine a scenario where Carter would fit in with this team as dysfunctional as it was.

Yep. And I forgot to add that White doesn't come close to commanding the respect among players that Phil did. Carter wouldn't give two sh*ts what she had to say about a situation.
