When your 3 best players don't play well, it is tough to win.
Hasn't happened much at all this year, especially with CC and KM who have been so great as of late.

They've won 8 of their last 10...sometimes a game like this happens and not much you can do.

CC made a great move in the 3Q and then missed a layup she makes probably 85%+ of the time. Just one of those games.

We obviously want the Fever to get the 4 seed (difficult after today), but teams are so bunched up that this one loss puts the Fever only one game ahead of a 3-way tie for 6th-8th place. A couple of those teams behind the Fever have two easy games remaining, so if the Fever lose both games to the Lynx they could fall to 7th or even 8th seed.

I think it’s clear that in the bigger picture it’s not gonna matter much. It’s hard to see the Fever winning a best of 5 series with almost no interior presence offensively of defensively.

Thougt Boston looked good a week ago in the tournament but she had help. Fever have no help for her and she is out sized and out matched against the top half of the league unfortunately. So many second shots for opponents hurts.

Not sure if if SG is in the dog house or what. She got burnt a couple of times defensively and got very few minutes. Not sure how far the Fever will go anyway but her usuall defense is good and is an outside threat. Lot of outside controveresy pertaining to her-not sure if it has floated in to locker room or management. Hope not as personally I support what she has said.
