No, no one stated that. You were dumb enough to post that the Fever would have a goal of CC getting 9-10 assists per game, which if you understand basketball is idiotic.

Getting assists is not and should not be the goal for any offense. The goal should be to make the right decision/pass/shot at the right time. If a player gets an assist from that, great. If not, oh well.

If CC is lane line extended and Boston is posting up on the low side and a good pass can't be thrown so CC throws it to the corner to Hull who feeds Boston for a basket, CC made the right pass, but Hull gets the assist. Would that be considered a bad play because it didn't help CC get 10 assists? No.
Uh, I guess I could be like some other clown on here and tell you , "you need to READ better". (Post #7292 if you want to try again). I N EVER said it was the Fevers goal. I offered a hypothetical of what did people think of just how she was going to make those great passes on a nightly basis, and yet they (the posters) expectation is that she should not turn the ball over. I never said the Fever said that. I was asking what people, thought the expectation SHOULD be.

Maybe if you didn't have such a hard on to correct other posters, you'd actually step back and consider someone else's position. Probably not though, huh. Not what a narcissist does.....

Last night was kind of the blueprint for how they need to win. 9 assist and 3 turnovers and 8-17 from the field is a great game. We can say all we want about oh she’s just trying to make plays but you can’t have 5 turnovers in a quarter like she did against Atlanta. That’s when the game got away the other night. But they also finally got a game from Billings. A double double and she earned her 28 minutes. Fever bench still stinks except for Sophie and once in awhile some good minutes from Hines Allen and Johnson. CC needs to keep her cool and just keep leading this team.

She had more space to operate than she did with the Dream. Also, the Mercury aren't a good team. Bunch of thugs, yes.

I think the last part is the most important. For goodness sakes someone else please step up. Especially in the frontcourt. If AB isn’t going to be a real factor scoring, which is the case way too often, then someone else needs to step up.

If Clark would have had 0 turnovers they still would have gotten stomped by the Dream.

I think Timpson has potential. She's really good at blocking shots and getting rebounds. She's also a good free throw shooter.

Timpson is very limited offensively and isn’t a 5

I don’t know what the Fever front office was smoking in the off season regarding depth behind Boston

They should have drafted the big South Carolina C that is playing well for the dream but took Johnson instead. While Johnson is playing pretty well for a rookie, they needed depth at the 5

Well they actually needed both a backup for Cc and a backup for Boston. 2 key positions. When either is out of the game for any amount of time it’s a big problem. That along with getting zero production from the 3 and 4 position puts pressure on the Big 3 to have to have really good games every single night, which just isn’t realistic. If Billings could just go get 12 and 6 every night it would be huge and Hull and Cunningham together could get 12-15 together and play solid defense every night it makes a huge difference.

lol insanity.

But I’ve seen that it could be because of some licensing issues. Some other absurd omissions- Taurasi, Moore, Bird, etc

Clark's team is pretty restrictive when it comes to her NIL (and rightly so)...and I can easily see her not signing off on something if she has a competing deal with another company.
