More like where the F was Mitchell running on the fast break? You don’t bury yourself under the hoop when you don’t have the ball. She got way to close to the ball carrier.

This might be dumbest basketball take in the history of this board, and that is saying something.

The Fever really need to start winning home-court in future playoffs. You play on the road and their best player goes crazy. What are you supposed to do?

Meanwhile, CC still doesn't have a FG since the first quarter. Hell, she has barely shot the ball.

Not give her wide open threes would be a start.

Why would that be the dumbest take? She ran so close to Clark on the fast break that one defender could guard both of them. You must have never done a 3 on 2, 2 on 1 drill. You need to have spacing on a fast break to create passing lanes so that a defender can’t cover multiple people.

Of course we all know that you have the dumbest takes in this thread regularly. So I’m just going to move on.

Legend is a legendary idiot.

He writes things like this:

She [Caitlin Clark also] gets away with things no one else in the league would get away with.

It's just not CC's or KM's night. The ball just isn't falling. CC has had a few good inside shots bounce out.

The Fever desperately need both of them to find some magic in the 4th or the season is done.

That dang block by Boston went off Wilson's hand clear as day, how the hell do you not see that or challenge that?

Kelsey was running outside the lane, right where she should be running. CC made a terrible decision when she had an open lane to the basket.

Need to see the fighting Fever. Get stops and score, pretty please (with sugar on top)?

The Fever would be tied or leading if they had made half their good, open shots tonight.

Well, the Aces are finally missing shots, so the Fever have been given a chance. Make some dang shots and win this.
