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

[EvilMonkeyInTheCloset]

I still go to wwe events. They’re fun as hell but a lot more expensive than they used to be.

I was in Minneapolis during Summerslam weekend. Would've loved to go but ticket prices have gotten kinda ridiculous on WWE's front.

Which is ridiculous because it looked empty on TV.

Mitchell doesn't make her teammates better and she should go elsewhere to get her overpaid contract are quite the takes. Wait until you see how CC is guarded if/when KM leaves.

Conversely, watch how Kelsey continues to be an elite scorer averaging 24.7 ppg on a different team without Caitlin..............................🫠

 

[EvilMonkeyInTheCloset]

Yep, the league would hate to see ratings skyrocket and have their best player continue to play on in the playoffs leading to higher ratings.

You're being sarcastic but tone aside what you wrote is true...............

 

[EvilMonkeyInTheCloset]

Do you think that last foul on CC was a foul?

Yes.

She threw herself in, or wasn't set, on a number of her fouls.

2.1 million viewers for the Aces Sundays playoff game 1 up against NFL teams.

And people say Aja Wilson doesn’t bring eyeballs.

 

[FlaIaWis]

Same seats I had for Game 5 last year.

So were you there for the 2025 WNBA Finals when the "Great" Aja Wilson couldn't even sell-out their 12,000 seat arena? A home game, WNBA Finals and Aja & the Aces can't sell-out their home arena!!
Tells me everything I need to know about her box office.

Game 3 going against Browns/Steelers TNF. I bet they'll do some good numbers again.

Yep, I mentioned it at the time…poor attendance for a playoff game and of the ones that did attend there was a fair amount of Fever fans.

 

[KurtWarner]

If the WNBA has any stones and wants to show it is a serious league she certainly should and would be.

They won't

 

[Franisdaman]

At most, the WNBA will fine her. Prove me wrong, Cathy!

Under official WNBA rules, any coach, player, or trainer who deliberately enters the spectator stands during a game faces an automatic ejection and a report to the commissioner, which can lead to further fines or suspensions.

An NBA player is automatically ejected and faces potential suspension if they deliberately go into the spectator stands during a game.

Not to mention that all five Aces players on the court went to the spot as well. You could argue that some of them went there simply to defuse the situation, but at least a couple of them were jawing with fans too.

Having said that, I hope the league doesn’t suspend Wilson or anyone else. It would be a shame to taint the outcome of the series on account of Wilson losing her composure for a couple of minutes.

I may be wrong, but I don’t think Natasha Cloud even got a technical for doing it against the Fever.

Cloud situation was way different. You had Enes Kanter provoking things.

The old double standard.

A different angle. Is that his wife pulling him down to his seat? LOL

Bad game. Bad look. Frustration. Apologized to her team. No apology for her actions. Pathetic. Unprofessional.

It's not just Wilson. Her teammates were off the court too. Can't let this go. If you allow this, WNBA, then the rest of what little credibility you have left will be gone. Enforce the rules.

Should have been a flagrant on CC....refs let it go.

You really are a d*ck.

Should have been ejected.

I love the "he pointed right IN her face". lololol.. Dude he was 20 ft away from her, she was in the middle of the lane. He was ZERO threat to her, and she instigated the situation being escalated, and walked into the fans area to confront HIM. . What is this the millionth time some pro player probably been "pointed at" by a fan on the road? ZERO question she should have been ejected or suspended clearly BY league rules already in place. Of course we know the crap storm that would have erupted if poor disrespected Aja would have been tossed, and this would quickly have turned into another "cry wolf" racial issue.

Precisely. The reverse of what she said that happened, happened. He stayed put, and she was the imbecile who "Stepped Toward" him.

Look, we all know the leagues not going to do anything to Wilson......

Okay, I get that argument, BUT, this goes back to that same deal on when in games to you STOP calling fouls or the rules as they're written? So we don't want to impact one teams top player, SO, lets ignore rules that apply to EVERY other player throughout the season? So if she, or Clark for that matter gets two T's in game three, do you not eject them? Because that's exactly the same thing. Should Clark NOT have been removed when she was called for the 6th foul when certainly her absence the last three minutes in a close game could have changed the outcome? Again its exactly the same thing. You apply the rules as written, OR you do not. Who decides that?

There were several of those in this game alone.
