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

[Hawksfor3]

Refs look confused. Fire hell out of 'em!

 

[IowaCityLit]

CC gave up that bucket to Paopao, but that was good defense....stayed in front of her...walled up...didn't reach...just a better offensive play.

She’s been isolated alot and gives up some physicality. Been decent. But team defense dreadful.

 

[Hawksfor3]

Okot doubled in the post. No one defended the cutter.

 

[Legend12]

And then does that. Ugh.

 

[hawkeyewx]

Fever are going to give up 90-100 pts again. The Dream are up to near 60% shooting. All the layups are a big part of that.

 

[IowaCityLit]

AB plays a lot smaller than she is at times.

And the transition D is just awful. Which it has been all year.

I actually think Fever should slow it down and play half-court like they did in the first matchup with Atlanta. They just get all out of position and flat-footed on D in the open court.

 

[Buffalo43]

Cc gives up first step on defense continues

 

[hawkeyewx]

Pts in the paint is 32-16 Dream.

 

[Legend12]

Sophie Ole Cunningham

 

[hawkeyewx]

Jeez. This is just layup after layup after layup for the Dream. The Fever D is terrible.

 

[Buffalo43]

Horrible defense even from Lexi

 

[Kceasthawk@77]

Pts in the paint is 32-16 Dream.

Again Boston is more of a true 4 playing center, and no other true post player on the team. Roster construction?

 

[Legend12]

Spaz.

 

[Hawksfor3]

Not a foul.

 

[2D]

I've seen MUCH longer continuations. They should've given that bucket to her.

 

[gojojo]

It’s impossible to know what they are going to call, and what they are going to let go at all levels of women’s basketball.

And what happened to her FT shooting?

 

[Denmar]

Watching for the 1st time in 3 games. Refs still suck.

 

[IowaCityLit]

Missed FTs come on CC

 

[hawkeyewx]

Ugh, another 3 straight missed FTs by CC.

 

[Hawksfor3]

Clark missing fts lately.

 

[AFM22]

Watching for the 1st time in 3 games. Refs still suck.

To be fair the first quarter was awesome basketball. The refs have inserted themselves in the 2nd

 

[Kceasthawk@77]

damn CC, what happened to the free throws

 

[DTP2]

CC has been brutal at FT line since 25 for 25 start.

 

[Hawksfor3]

34-20. Atl in the 2nd.

 

[Tenacious E_rivals41982]

My god this is hard to watch.

 

[Bro D]

Reese is such a clown

 

[hawkeyewx]

Score 49 in the first half and you're getting whooped. 38 points in the paint for Atlanta. Just way too easy.

 

[Legend12]

I've seen MUCH longer continuations. They should've given that bucket to her.

She dribbled after the foul.

 

[2D]

Atlanta scored the same way, every time. They just run straight to the rim and nobody stops them. I think they runaway with this one tonight.

 

[IowaCityLit]

All in all just very little from KM and poor D.

CC played well and efficiently. Missed FTs are puzzling and a couple of really bad tos (including last one). Also thought she gave the ball up too quickly when getting into the lane at times

 

[Hawksfor3]

10-2 fast break points for Atl. Get back Fever and defend.

 

[hawkeyewx]

These teams played in Indy earlier this month. Atlanta only scored 71 the entire game. They only had 34 points-in-the-paint the entire game.

 

[Hawksfor3]

My god this is hard to watch.

Yep, and this after a pretty good first quarter.

 

[hawkeyewx]

damn CC, what happened to the free throws

CC has missed 8 FTs in the last two games.

 

[Hawksfor3]

Need to come out smoking hot in the 3rd.

 

[Hawksfor3]

CC has missed 8 FTs in the last two games.

3-7. This game.

 

[Manfredi]

The Fever have 9 rebounds.

 

[Hawksfor3]

Rough for Billings so far 2 pts 1 reb.

 

[Hawksfor3]

Great pass there KM.

 

[Manfredi]

Great pass there KM.

Cue Benny Hill theme
