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

[AFM22]

Need more than 1/6 from Clark.

 

[Ludd]

Need more than 1/6 from Clark.

They need to stop having Boston play point guard almost the whole time CC has been in the game. Too much half court game and playing exactly how Portland wants them to play.

 

[DTP2]

Amazing we have top offense, yet we seem to have half as many scorers as other teams. Plus our two big signings have done nothing.

 

[TJ8869]

Is Dantas injured or have the Fever completely given up on her?

 

[Kceasthawk@77]

Raven with 2 open looks and 2 absolute bricks.

While Clark sits a good part of the first quarter. Better manage her work load I guess.....

 

[Kceasthawk@77]

Does Caitlin Clark actually play for the Fever?
What is with taking Boston & Clark out at the 5 1/2 minute mark in the 1st quarter?

Exactly White just keeps pulling on that leash. They get out to a good start, and time for CC to sit for 4 minutes....

 

[The Big Z]

Need more than 1/6 from Clark.

I’ll also say CC just seems to have a different mentality on the road. If she’s not hot she just kind of stops shooting. She’s got to keep letting it fly and being aggressive.

 

[Kceasthawk@77]

WTF, Harris? She had a 2-on-1 break and brought it back outside.

Her and Timpson have NO idea how to run a 2 on 1 fast break. They both ran down the middle of the floor and let one defender stop them. Oh well, Timpson would have missed the layup anyway....

Is Dantas injured or have the Fever completely given up on her?

Probably given up. She's been bad.

 

[Kceasthawk@77]

Wtf was that Kelsey?

Another of those wonderful "layups" from the waist and she throws it 6 ft over the basket. She must be getting shooting tips from Reese...

 

[Kceasthawk@77]

CC cannot shoot worth a sh*t on the road anymore. Let's hope that changes at some point.

She looks fairly disinterested. I think she's counting the days until she can get out of Indiana

 

[Manfredi]

Probably given up. She's been bad.

I would think they could find better free agent upgrades over several players...Harris, VanSlooten, Dontas

 

[Kceasthawk@77]

Is Dantas injured or have the Fever completely given up on her?

I hope so. She's dreadful on both ends of the floor. I had hoped when they picked up Van Slooten, they had cut Dantas....

All their cash is tied up in Mitchell and Boston

 

[IowaCityLit]

CC and the Fever will be short-lived. Just a terrible roster construction.

 

[Ludd]

There’s another reason Clark struggles with on ball defense, they call a foul on her every time she breathes on someone.

 

[Hawksfor3]

No problem. White'll figure it out.

 

[AFM22]

Does anyone on Indiana care that a basketball game is happening?

They should have drafted Okot when they realized the math didn’t allow them to keep Howard.

 

[EvilMonkeyInTheCloset]

Nah, they're done.

 

[DTP2]

This team is low IQ.

 

[oldhawk56]

Well.... that's basketball.
G'nite

Perhaps, this team is not buying in to what this coach is selling!

 

[Hawksfor3]

Man, RJ strugglin'.

 

[pablow]

Exactly. SW is losing this team.

Starts with the coach lol.

 

[The Big Z]

At least 1 former Hawk is playing great. Meg is killing it.

 

[pablow]

When you switch every pick, you get Kelsey guarding Gustafson two feet from the basket.

 

[EdgarAllenPodolak]

Gustafson looking like she’s on 2019 Iowa.

 

[Hawksfor3]

When you switch every pick, you get Kelsey guarding Gustafson two feet from the basket.

She's so tiny. It's almost like every player is a mismatch.

 

[WDSMHawk]

Portland going with an all white girl lineup and they are still killing them

 

[Hawksfor3]

Gustafson looking like she’s on 2019 Iowa.

Meg with 17, but not a single board.

 

[jhoosh43]

I'm liking this Portland team more than the Fever. Fire are playing tough in the second game of a back-to-back, and it's great seeing Gustafson excel. It's easy to root for Megan. She was a monster in college, but didn't fit in the W, so she busted her *** playing pro all over the world and expanding her game. CC is impressive, but I like Gustafson a lot more.

 

[doughuddl2_rivals]

Exactly. SW is losing this team.

At halftime SW said "they need to compete ". Next question, why aren't they for you?

 

[Denmar]

Fever with 2 starters with 0 points.

 

[Ludd]

That defensive system is not working, but she doesn’t know how to change.

 

[OnlyTheObscure]

Stuff like that and it’s hard to say they are true pro players.

 

[AFM22]

Why is Clark smiling

 

[Hawksfor3]

Gas?

 

[DTP2]

JFC, did Kelsey lube up her hands.
