"Sources tell me Cameron Brink walked out of Mohegan Sun arena with no assistance, no ice, and no visible brace (but she was wearing long pants). Hopefully that’s good news, but Curt Miller did say post game she’d be evaluated tomorrow. "

Still some concern of a possible ACL injury.

Hopefully not, she has been playing well and significantly adds to this rookie class.

For sure,  Brink, Reese, CC, Rickea Jackson and Aaliyah Edwards make one helluva all-rookie first team with Kate Martin as a 6th person

The women's game is played below the rim and is similar to the NBA prior to all the dunking and hyper athleticism.

Certainly not everyone's cup of tea.

I suggest you just don't watch it, but if you want to try and get into it watch Rori or Maddie on the UT women's team. You can get excited cause it's UT vs Aggie or whatever, and can watch some great players

showing off a lot of heart and some remarkable skills.

I'm trying to get into it because I'm not a baseball fan but would like some kind of sport to carry me from the end of the NHL/NBA seasons to fall football camp.  

That said it's hard to watch after being accustomed to the athleticism of the men's game.

Also, I'm probably still biased from when I used to play pick-up games against members of Jodi's teams at the Rec Center when I was in undergrad.  I'm 5'9, and was by no means a great player, so I was always tasked with guarding the women.  I was like Jordan in comparison.

I'm sure the women's game has gotten way, way better since then, and will continue to do so, but that experience created a bias that's been tough for me to get over.

As for UT, I'd watch a tiddlywinks game if the Longhorns were playing aggy or blowU.

Well crap. Misses the rest of her rookie year and the Olympics.

Women and the goddamn ACL tears, that's a full year gone for her.

Who do we put on the 3 on 3 team now?

She's really finding her groove.  They've started featuring Boston more and they are taking off as a team and CC is becoming more a little more efficient as a result too.   Still turned it over 6 times but shot 50% from the field.   She should easily be an all-star.  With fan voting its a given but it is deserved as well.

Easy to do when you shoot sub 40% from near the basket and get your own rebounds.....she's literally gaming the system.

Angel Reese has gotten 68 offensive rebounds this season (24 from her own misses).If you take away rebounds from her own misses she would have 44 O Rebounds. 4 less than Ezi Magegor.This is without factoring out the amount of Ezi’s offensive rebounds are from her own misses. https://t.co/MxOSBFrB2N

What in the world?

 

What is that person doing to Angel Reese?

 

 

#421

That's both. Wheeler took Reese out of the rebound potential by pushing her away and you can see Reese holding Wheeler from getting back on offense. 

Very stupid on Wheeler's part, because Clark didn't know Reese was coming up from behind as she brought the ball up.

I just thought it was funny since I've seen all those clips of how CC was being guarded "like no one has been before"     You dont see a rebounder getting face guarded all to the corner and off the court very often LOL

#423

Brink's replacement.   Quite deserving.   She's having a great yr and has been very good for a while now.

 

Going for gold! 🥇🇺🇸 Congrats to @dearicamarie on being named to the @usab3x3 Women's National Team! https://t.co/LtFa253mFU

Interesting.   I've seen a lot of people online calling for her to play since she was a very good defender in college and the Fever defense is quite lacking.

 

We have waived guard Celeste Taylor and activated forward Damiris Dantas.Thank you, Celeste ❤️🔗 https://t.co/TMdsow38X2

I wonder if this is in response to Smith getting worked by Angel in the last game.  

Is Damiris an enforcer type?

Dantas was already on the roster, just with a suspended (family death, visa issues, knee injury) contract which allowed the Fever to carry 13 players when the WNBA teams are only allowed 12. So, someone had to go. Dantas, not really an enforcer but a good player.
The question is not, why did you cut Celeste over Damiris, it’s why did you keep Victaria Saxton – like Dantas, also a forward.  Saxton - 10 minutes and 3 points total on the year.

At least give Taylor a try, you need defense and she was the B10 defensive player of the year.

Angel did torch the Fever and Celeste wouldn’t be guarding her, so perhaps they decided to keep all their forwards and try to find a solution to that problem.

I definitely have a Celeste Taylor bias though, I hope she finds a spot in the league.

Hope she makes her way to Vegas but I dont know who would be cut to get her after they just cut Fair to get Jessika Carter

Damn, just traded for her a month ago. 2020 WNBA Rookie of the year.

Dream at 11 on the roster, maybe clearing space for Celeste? Please?

Would love to have Taylor on the Aces but I don't see that happening either.

Angel Reese becomes the fastest player in WNBA history to record 200+ points, 175+ rebounds, and 25+ steals. #WNBA

She has to get her finishing ability up but she is playing really well.   She isnt super athletic which is part of the problem and was evident all through her college career but she is absolutely relentless on the court.   That unstoppable effort has absolutely translated to the W

Yeah, not always a fan of Angel’s maturity level, but she is rapidly becoming a star in the W. Definitely earned a slot in the all star game. Has been playing much better, much sooner than I thought, rookie of the year selection will be interesting.

#441

Jewel Loyd is on fire!!!   Missed some time in the locker room after getting poked in tye eye.  Still finished the first half with 23.   In the zone.   A couple were straight heat checks that were cash!

People will lose their shit if Angel is ROY over CC .   I think it could come down to who's team has the better record.  Advanced stats will probably tilt toward Angel while the counting stats will lean more toward CC.   Will be interesting for sure if both continue to play well

Someone on the Caitlin thread posted a graphic showing Reese has a 42% shooting average on layups. 

Lots of rebounding opportunities when you miss that often from that close.

Yeah that was dispelled elsewhere.   Even if you take away the rebounds she got on her own misses she still would be leading the league.
