by the end of last season, caitlin clark had become the best player in the wnba, averaging 23.1 points, 5.4 rebounds and 8.9 assists per game with a shooting slash line of .435/.370/.929 after the olympic break, a period covering 14 games or a little over 1/3 of the season
@@yngtrey1638 why you always hating on the fever 😂 but you said a team with dijona stinking mustard carringotn and nylissa smith with arike who’s inefficient and paige who will be a soft frail rookie for the wings but your on the comments acting like the fever won’t be good next season with new additions and a better coach your clearly bias is it becaaus with your scared of caitlin clarks potential you weird little worm
clark was better than stewie last season collier and aja were better but at the end of last season after the olympic break clark was way better than stewie by a country mile she wa a better than aja aswell and collier and clark were at the same level
@@yngtrey1638 there’s no other players that were debatable last season being better than clark after aja and collier clark was the third best player in the wnba last season maybe you could say alyssa thomas but she averaged a triple single clark averaged way more points
@wnnakwkqkq8636 you can’t handle basketball debates without considering them “hating”. Clark is not better than the Finals MVP. Clark is not better than the regular season MVP. Clark is not better than the runner up to MVP. Clark and the fever have amazing potential. But they haven’t done anything yet. You aren’t emotionally mature enough to understand. Keep being a fan(atic).
They have a good shot, but still need to add depth in the 4 and 5 positions. Dantas and Saxton give you little, and thinking that Sophie or Katie Lou can fill in at the 4 won't work often. By the way, the Fever has the advantage based on speed. Not many teams will be able to run with them.
Concerning Catlin and Aja. They play different positions. It's like asking who is better between Wilt Chamberlain and Michael Jordan. Better at what? Chamberlain was much better at Blocking Shots and Rebounding. He was a monster in the paint. Chamberlain averaged 30.1 points, 23 rebounds and 4 assists per game for his career. Jordan averaged 30.1 points, 6 rebounds, 5 Assists. The stats say Chamberlain. The eye test says Jordan. I think the same is true here. The stats say Aja, the eye test says Clark.
Caitlin is going to be waaaay better this year, and her teammates overall are going to be better. I’ve got the Fever starting number 3 and hopefully playing great down the stretch.
i don't see why not. 2nd half last season they were one of the top teams and proved they could beat anybody. Now add new coaches, cunningham, and howard. So as good as they were the 2nd half last season, they have to be better than that.
Natasha and Sophie will both be better with CC passing to them. So thankful the management replaced Smith with Natasha. Kelsey staying is huge. Also realize the coaching staff is next level compared to last year. Coaching will make a huge change in performance.
So much goes into winning it all……possibly they can as well as several other teams. But I do think they’ll be in the thick of playoffs as long as stay healthy, improve on defense and gel.
Endurance, Speed, and Synergy are all players too and fever have 2 of these atm...I bet they get to the finals, depending on who they play, I may stutter but still take fever
It's really up to the refs. Can't tell how goo the Fever will be until we see who else they will sign but Caitlin is going to turn most her team into all stars. They will out perform.
That’s is completely wrong lol. Her points per game will likely go down. She’s going to get less shots than Clark and Mitchell. She’s the 3rd option. Her shooting percentage may go up but her points will almost definitely go down.
@@yngtrey1638 the reason why natasha howard is such a big signing is not her offence (even though on a good day she can drop 20+) it’s her defence she’s a former DPOTY and last season fever didn’t play any defence there biggest weakness is defence cunningham and natasha howard being defence and they’ve both had games where they’ve dropped 25+ so they can score if need be something nylassa smith can’t do while playing with clark and lexie hull is not capable
@wnnakwkqkq8636 Natasha Howard was second to last in defensive win shares last season lol. 156 out of 157 players, she’s not the same player as she was 5+ years ago. She’s no better than smith defensively.
Or they could get beat in the first round again lol. Let them play a few games before crowning them favorites to win the championship lol. They aren’t better than the Liberty, Aces or Lynx until they prove so.
he didn’t say they were favourites to win a championship he literally said there not in his favourites he said there contenders that’s different contenders means there’s a chance and there is a chance but the liberty and lynx are better i disagree on the aces jewell lloyd is too inefficient and she’s a ball handler so aja will get the ball less chelsea gray is getting old and jackie young is good but not good enough to carry the load chelsea gray will give her because she’s like a grandma now trust me when i say this the aces won’t be as good as you think they’ll be they’ll finish 5th/6th and they’ll go out 1st round
@@Yngtrey25 you really think the fever won’t win a round? i don’t think they’ll win the championship but they’ll win a playoff round if you mean not winning the chip by fall short then i agree the fever arnt good enough to do that yet but they could make a run
@wnnakwkqkq8636 they have a chance to win a round depending on who the face. They likely won’t beat any of the top 3 teams. So unless they have a great regular season I can’t see them winning a playoff series. They won’t beat Aces, Liberty or Lynx in a series most likely.
“Gas station attendants” you do realize she had the former ROY in Boston on her team and one of the best scorers in the entire league in Mitchell right? Who do you expect her to play with? 😂
@@Yngtrey25 mitchell had the best season of her career with caitlin clark before caitlin clark mitchell was arike but way worse and averaging less points caitlin clark improved her game aliyah boston is brilliant but she’s a undersized centre the fever have very good players but caitlin clark uplifts them because of her gravity and ability
I think Caitlin and Boston are going to be much better. Conservatively Caitlin has 25+ PPG this year, and may reach 35+ PPG. She is going to improve her 3 point %, with the new offense she will have more fast break baskets and if it is officiated fairly she gets more foul shots. I think she could break the PPG RECORD (26) and still get close to 10APG. THEY will run half court teams and big teams off the court. I think the Fever was going to be much better without any additions.. The biggest problem this team may have is everyone accepting their role and put wins and the team first.
The calculus that no teams will improve as much as the Indiana Sun begs to differ. 2027 is the earliest no matter how strong they look in the first game. 2025 season strike cancels playoffs

Fever will win 4 titles in the next 7 years
LOL how about you focus on winning a single playoff game before 4 championships 😂Lol
@@yngtrey1638 That's why you call them FAN(atic)S
Hard to say, and I hope so lol
But we will be one of the top teams now and no one sane can deny that
I'M OVER THE MOON, with the addition of Sophie

What about Points Generated? Caitlin as rookie left everyone in the dust, including A'ja.

Didn't the Fever lose 5 of their last 6 games?
Let's give them like 20 some games that's more than half of the season. Let's wait before we starting crowing them as champs
PHX will be lucky if Satou even plays for a full season.
Natasha and Sophie will both be better with CC passing to them. So thankful the management replaced Smith with Natasha. Kelsey staying is huge. Also realize the coaching staff is next level compared to last year. Coaching will make a huge change in performance.
Are you judging the Fever by the whole season or from the half? From the half they went to the playoffs. One half took them to the playoffs.
I doubt anyone could project how amazing CC can be nest season... She was amazing last season, this year???? CC..........
these veteran players be hoping CC22 has the second year hiccups.
So much goes into winning it all……possibly they can as well as several other teams. But I do think they’ll be in the thick of playoffs as long as stay healthy, improve on defense and gel.

I can feel Fever can win it all.
Angel Reese was just ejected from the Unrivaled game. They were actually doing pretty good at the time.
Cathy Engleburg and the DEI refs may have a say in that
Fever is much improved. Can’t see who they draft to add to an already contender.
It's really up to the refs. Can't tell how goo the Fever will be until we see who else they will sign but Caitlin is going to turn most her team into all stars. They will out perform.
They need a legit 5.
Gaby Williams' shooting is "eh"? What will you say when she is their last signing?
She's been cored by Seattle so the chance of her going to the Fever is pretty nonexistent.
@ I think that only means the Fever can only acquire her through a trade. Not that they can’t acquire her.
FEVER have better coach
Natasha Howard will drop 25 a game easily running with Caitlin ..
That’s is completely wrong lol. Her points per game will likely go down. She’s going to get less shots than Clark and Mitchell. She’s the 3rd option. Her shooting percentage may go up but her points will almost definitely go down.

They are not done. There’s another piece incoming.
It’s 181k roselle already did the break down
Anyone have clips of Dantis in Turkey?
So they got a near max who are they talking about
Shockingly you’re bias towards the fever.
They need to upgrade their bench its weak
Or they could get beat in the first round again lol. Let them play a few games before crowning them favorites to win the championship lol. They aren’t better than the Liberty, Aces or Lynx until they prove so.

Exactly. Let's not count our chickens before they hatch.
Mercury yes, Dream not so much. Old and/or slow.
@@markr1550 Slow but lethal with Gray and Howard add bigs with Griner and Jones they got better and will give problems to any teams outhere
Last year Caitlin dragged a bunch of gas station attendants to the playoffs on her back this year is going to be far different …
“Gas station attendants” you do realize she had the former ROY in Boston on her team and one of the best scorers in the entire league in Mitchell right? Who do you expect her to play with? 😂
Not to mention Clark was the one that folded in playoffs in game 1, not her teammates.
@@Yngtrey25 It's called hyperbole, a rhetorical device.
@@joeykremple did you not read my entire reply? My point was her teammates weren’t some bums. She had decent teammates.

This. Is. Mental.
The Refs will decide who wins the 2025 WNBA Championship.

Nah. They lost their NaLyssa Boston advantage.
How can they cope with this roster?
