Soooo,,,

MN plays NY 3 straight games:

@ Sun, Aug 10th
Sat, Aug 16th
@ Tue, Aug 19th

But during that time NY has to also play:

@ LA Aug 12th
@ LV Aug 13th

That seems odd.

The league is such a sh*t show
They are trying to wiggle and fit an expanded number of games into an already abbreviated season length (in comparison to the NBA).

You would thing that the odd scheduling (back-to-back, e.g.) should - emphasize should - normalize more when the expansion teams come on board.

Will also help when more teams are playing in venues controlled by the team....less blackout days and scheduling conflicts when they are the priority.

Did you watch the game? Was it like this all night?

I read there was an incident before this as well where Allen was the on the receiving end but won't have time to watch the game until tonight
As I mentioned in an earlier post, I watch games in small doses now. I didn't see this particular game.

What's going on with CC is baffling. Through college and her first year in the W she started something like 169 straight games. And now a groin pull that occurred a month ago still has her sidelined! Makes no sense to me. Something has to be going on behind the scenes that we're not aware of. Perhaps the Fever front office is protecting her for a possible off-season trade. Would like to see her next year in a Valkyries uni.

Please explain why you think an organization would trade the most lucrative player in the league?

Get a grip. The Fever are not conspiring to keep CC from playing so that they can trade her. That’s preposterous. Clark is generating unbelievable publicity and enormous amounts of revenue for the franchise. They will do everything possible to keep her in Indy. They will not trade Clark. C’mon man use your noodle.

furthermore, there is nothing baffling or mysterious about extended absence due to a groin injury.

Roflmao. The Indianapolis chamber of commerce would put a hit out on the owner.

downtown Indianapolis is absolutely packed when The Fever play at home. A weekend home game is like Kinnick East. Bars restaurants hotels are packed.

Lol, you think they're going to trade the best PG in the league, the most popular women's BB player on the planet, and the sole reason Fever average attendance is like 17k and opponents regularly moving their games v. Indy to bigger NBA arenas... all of which translates into gobs more $$$ for the team?

That's certainly a take.

Are the Fever REALLY going to lose another home game to a bottom team? Sheesh. This team can be so frustrating.

Sims is the opposite of her first game tonight. 11 points and a couple assists. Good job. Good defense too.

How in the world can this team be so f'ing bad at home against all of the league's worst teams? They can beat Chicago, but they suck against the rest. It's maddening. They are going to miss the dang playoffs if this continues. A couple weeks ago they were only 1.5 games out of 2nd place.

On the Mystics side, a rough night for Lucy. 1-3 for 2 points. No rebounds or assists.

Timpson often gets to low with the ball.,.needs to keep it high and away from the D.

After seeing Mitchell panic the other night, I'd prefer to not have this game come down to a final possession.
