Dream beat the Aces, 97-82. Fever are now .5 game ahead of the Aces for 3rd place.

Somehow the Aces allow Angel Reese to score 21 pts. Aja Wilson got here typical 27 pts and 14 rebs but also had 5 TOs.

Becky Hammon also got a double tech and ejection for crashing out at the refs, and got cheers from the crowd.........

LV has played 8 straight against likely playoff teams...their schedule gets crazy soft for the last 7..all of them against the bottom 5 teams in the standings.


Fever have 5 of their final 8 against likely playoff teams.

Why is the officiating so bad after 30 years of a professional league?

Now show how many assists a game those other players produce. Guaranteed CC is more than 1, higher. @Legend12

And here is an entirely different discussion I had once w/ some NBA analytic dorks...not CC-specific, but we will use her and the Fever as they are the ones we are most familiar with and her high usage rate would bring this into play.

CC averages 8+ APG....how many of those assists are directly because of her, and how many are offense/play based and how many are just the result of basketball being played?

It is a small sample size, but the Fever this year are averaging 20.6 APG.
In the 4 games that CC missed, they are averaging 20 APG.

So they would say CC is "worth" +.6 APG even though she averages over 8 per game herself.

And on the flip side...I don't have the stats in front of me right now, but I believe the Fever average 2+ more TOs per game w/ out CC than they do with her this season, so if someone is going to say she's worth +.6 APG then they would also need to credit her w/ the decrease in TOs, which would be a much higher % than most would think.

Thoughts?

You’re a crazy person. Totally obsessive personality.


Oh, Tommy. The irony here is delicious.

Why are you so obsessed with me?

Off your meds again? Hope not! LOL

I pity people like yourself. I hope you get help and find peace someday.

The sh.it you post really is something, Tommy. But you are consistent, so we all know what to expect.

I really hope karma greets you daily and that your life continues to be miserable.

Take care, Tommy, and good luck.

It gets old. Same folks highlighting the bad instead of looking at the good of her play.
Probably the results of a mom and pop thing they had growing up.

We get it. You're out on Caitlin Clark.

Nobody cares. And you're not gonna change anyone's mind trying to be the guy that whispers to the emperor "You're just a man, you're just a man" every day.

Good luck going forward knowing that. 😃
There's tons of posters relishing the fact legend has aged into a low tier forum troll like that am22 gal. I think it's sad because I used to enjoy his cocky snark, but that legend washed away with his menopause.

Ruocco and Lobo mentioned how very hot Atlanta's arena was, and then last night it was apparently very warm again in Toronto's arena. Let's hope the Dallas, NY, and Chicago arenas are cooler.

The last two games were in NBA arenas so I'm kind of surprised they didn't have functioning AC.

Is this similar to what happened to her in Game 5 against LV last season?

On the non-call that Hammon went ape shat over I thought the contact on Wilson was pretty marginal.

But when you've come to expect 20 FTAs per game is A'ja's birthright, then Hammon's rage is understandable. Psychotic for sure, but understandable.

She had full blown rhabdo in the playoffs last year. Hopefully they were just being extremely cautious last night.
I wasn’t aware of that. Full blown exertional rhabdomyolysis is a medical emergency which necessitates hospitalization in order to guard against kidney damage/failure. An IV is required and recovery is at least a few weeks.

I don't think 4 games is statistically meaningful.

I just watched the clip and didn't think it looked too bad either. If that sent her into orbit, she would get ejected from every game if she coached Caitlin.
