What a bunch of horseshit. Those girls play hard and play for each other. Never seen anything on the court that would suggest a divided locker room or people unhappy with their roles.

God, they fumble a golden ticket so badly.

Obviously they should put CC on the graphic but Kelsey Mitchell is a fucking baller.

I think maybe they got cute and wanted to highlight someone on the Fever that hasn't gotten as much attention. 

I get it. Great marketing move? No. But I understand what they were trying to do.

Does the WNBA always start their postseason in the daytime of an NFL football Sunday? Seems like they like to purposely shoot themselves in the dick.

At the time (1989) I seem to recall a bunch of teeth-gnashing when Swoopes arrived at Texas and then transferred soon thereafter - without playing a game.  Fans were worried that Condradt was faltering, etc.

After listening to Swoopes talk about basketball - and Clark - I am just thankful she's: Sheryl Swoopes, WNBA legend and for Texas TECH All-American.  While it would have been nice to have another AA or national championship around that time, I a grateful that her bitter, moronic, and meandering commentary is not affiliated with Texas.

Wasn't the purported reason she transferred out that we had too many lesbians on the team and she was just a god fearing small town west Texas girl?  I could swear I remember that.

Who ended up being a lesbian.   Funny how the ones who have the biggest problem with gays are usually fighting their own sexuality

She's a rookie in her first playoff game.  It shouldnt be that unexpected.   She will adjust I'm sure and be better but with the way the W playoffs are set up she may only have one more game left this yr.

Why does the @WNBA let players wear gigantic nails if they use them as weapons? We're lucky CC didn't lose an eye here. (Reminder no foul called and Caitlin played with 1 eye the rest of game and had her worst shooting performance in months after this) https://t.co/557Fje1UQm

That was intentional as hell. Great look for this league when they do nothing about people trying to take out their best marketing tool in its history.

It's going to be funny when the Fever get bounced out of the playoffs Wednesday and then the WNBA viewerships drops 50%+ for the rest of the playoffs.  The haters will be out in force.

Wonder if the Fever can bring in some more help for CC in the off season?  She's transcendent but even Steph can't carry the Warriors alone.  She's also over reliant on the 3-ball and needs to be more of a driving threat to really get to GOAT mode.

They actually have a decent little roster. Boston is very good and will get better. Mitchell is in her prime. 

Just need to keep the girls together and let CC develop. She's far from a finished product and still makes a couple bad decisions per quarter most nights. 

#1848

Radio guys here local seem to be in agreement that the Fever have the worst GM in sports and the HC isn't far behind.  I won't pretend to know any better or any different. 

That play where CC nearly lost an eye is some extreme bullshit.  The WNBA won't do anything, though.

No offense but I'm guessing I have a more objective and reasonable take than two dipshits on morning radio in Indiana that just started watching women's ball this season. It's possible their take is more informed.

Either way the sample size isn't big enough yet. They just had a huge turnaround from the previous season and CC was a rookie. They have never struck me as poorly coached and they've been able to put two other all-star caliber players around CC, but I'm not going to pretend they're the 2010s Patriots or anything. 

Like I said - CC has a long way to go. Which should terrify other teams. She ain't gonna need much help. Especially if the WNBA keeps adding teams. Just get her a couple big girls and some 3 and Ds and let her cook LeBron style.

They had one of, if not the best record, after the Olympic break.   They found their groove and those same guys that many talking heads swore sucked in the first half of the season were balling.   Mitchell played All-WNBA ball, Hull shot the lights out and Boston got back to her rookie all star form.   They already have a "big 3" and dont need to make some huge move unless it just falls into their lap.   Just continue growing the chemistry they have and each of them growing individually.
