I'm curious but I wish Christie Sides could explain why did she let AB take the 3 point shot with 24 or 34 seconds left? I apologize but I forgot how many seconds was left, when she has three of the hottest 3 point shooters in the league in Caitlin Clark, Kelsey Mitchell and Lexi Hull! Why???
@@RichardPuou that is what everyone is wondering! But I have seen her hit a three one time but it’s like having Scottie Pippen, MJ, and Steve Kerr in a game down 2 and Phil chooses Dennis Rodman to take the 3! What happened to Kelsey in the second half?
Good question. Never know what sides is thinking. She seems to turn into a cheerleader instead of a coach, honestly I don't see much of the coach personality
Everytime Christie Sides is asked about her actions and decisions, she answers "we...". Sides doesn’t take accountability for anything at all. Fire her at the end of this season.
This was a totally awesome game! So glad it was televised. There is a lot to be said about this game. When the stakes are high and the defenses are playing hard, players can really lose focus on what is needed to be done. Kelsey Mitchell really kept the Fever in the game in the first half. CC was shooting them out of the game and seemed to be chasing stats. Just from the eye test, I don't think CC got many assists from the Mitchell baskets, Kelsey went out there and got her own shot. I thought the Fever did a phenomenal job on A'ja Wilson. When the defensive pace slowed down in the fourth quarter the Fever were not able to capitalize. If the Fever had a guard that could shoot coming off the bench that could have been different. Mitchell and Dontas were your vets on the floor in the 4th quarter. I think they needed more shots. I have no problem with Boston taking the 3 at the end of the game. She was open and can hit that shot. When the Fever got close in the 4th quarter they did take possessions off. I'm not sure if this team is ready to shuffle players in and out frequently to keep everybody fresh. This team is young and has come very, very far this season. I know Sides is not perfect but she is far from garbage. I thought Caitlin was wrong for calling out Sides for the quick time out to start the second half. Caitlin Clark is easily a generational talent but this was her worst game the second half of the season. Such a storybook season for the Fever. I'm so glad to have been able to watch it.
Oh, I took CC mentioning Sides calling a quick time out in Q3 as an affirmative that the Fever was starting the quarter wrong. Aces went on a 5-0 run. Fever committed a turnover, CC missed a shot, the energy wasn’t there for the Fever. Time out called. There was a regrouping, then a 6-0 run by the Fever. I don’t think the Fever team wanted to have another Q3 start out bad again, and have to ‘waste’ a timeout on the lack of focus, esp after a halftime regrouping. Great thoughts in your comment. 👍
Just curious, would hitting the stanchion be a T in the NBA. It seems like the refs have really thin skin and make calls to punish players that question them
I totally agree agree the reffing in this league are horrible and very one sided. They need to see that they cannot just blatantly ignore fouls and then call it at the other end.
Although I've followed Caitlin Clark since her latter Dowling days, I'm relatively new to the WNBA. As an observer I couldn't square the decisions of the referee's calling defensive fouls on Fever players when the Aces players were steaming in with arms and elbows flailing and benefitting from all refereeing decisions. Perhaps officials don't want to call anything on Aces players?
Aliyah, Caitlin, Kelsey-this Indiana team runs through you. Boston, you own the paint; no one can match your presence inside. Mitchell, your scoring keeps us alive every game. And Caitlin, you are the one who steps up in the clutch. When it's crunch time, the ball belongs in your hands. We don’t need hesitation or the wrong calls holding us back. Coach Sides, it’s time to step out of the way when it matters most. We need the right players on the floor and the freedom to make the plays that win games. The talent is here-let us do what we do best and finish the job
Wilson can set moving screens and foul people all game and never get fouls, she gets the preferential treatment for sure. On the other hand, Clark drives to the hoop, the defender bumps her and flops, pretending to fall down and the refs call CC for the foul every time.
@marshacharlet6438 she does need to change it. She is coaching as if it were 40 years ago. Right now, she is driving a Ferrari but has removed a spark plug.
The real facts to winning the games is when Clark and Mitchell and Hull and Boston and Temi is on the court all at one time it’s important to get the most points as possible before the rotation of players happens period so Hull and Mitchell need to take more shots period if you don’t get them more involved in shooting the ball you will Loose period ❤❤❤❤❤
Would be awesome but if we win, more than likely we will be the lowest seed going to the second round (Chicago or whe ever is the 8th seed and Phoenix at the 7th aren't beating NY and Minn), so if we beat Connecticut, which we can do, we will face NY in the second round most likely. Which again, is better than facing Minnesota who we really struggle against
Sides sabotages and handicaps her own team!! They don’t even get a chance with N Smith starting and staying in! Kelsey pulled out of the game when she was hot and had to sit on the bench for a long time. All the stupid subbing in the first game put them in the hole before they began!!
Sides is intimidated by the fast style of basketball that her team plays best with. She purposely slows everything down by calling idiotic plays and making goofy substitutions to make it happen. Then post-game she blames her team after it all falls apart. Fire her, for the love of God....
Aces have the best bench in the league...cc doesnt need to bring the ball down full court..too mich energy needed for offense since everyone guards her like theyre fighting for food...
Christy sides coaching philosophy is insanity. Trying to do the same thing over and over and expecting different results slow pace down paint touches terrible starting lineup rotation off of the bench not using timeouts etc
it's all good, La Fiebre, it'll be that much sweeter when they beat the Aces (and Lynx too) in the postseason this year or in subsequent seasons, much like the Bulls having to get past the Pistons 30+ years ago, obstacles are how one or teams get better
Two good games against the 2 time defending champions! These are great learning lessons moving forward! The Fevers are a good team! They are going through growing pains and development! They just have to take the next step! They are going in the right direction! They have to play with their emotions under control! The Fever should do well in the playoffs! They do have enough to win the championship this year! They are better than their current record! The Liberty, Lynx, Aces, Suns, Storm, and Fever have the players to win it all this year! It’s going to boil down to who playing the best basketball and peaking at the right time staying healthy! Sometimes when you lose a game it’s a win moving forward! No team has ever gone undefeated in a regular season! Once the playoffs start, it’s open for all to have a chance for the championship! Once you qualify for the playoffs; these are the games you need to win to reach your goal! Only one team will be holding the championship trophy this year!
Hey Scott, do you have any insight into why they are doing the press conferences separately instead of together? Some logistic we don’t know about? It seems so odd after seeing the players do it together all season. Thanks.
Forget about the refs this Fever team is not letting Hull shoot the ball enough period , can’t say the defense did not play well for the defense played great actually Hull needs to shot the ball atleast 10 more shots period . That’s the problem ❤❤❤❤❤
indiana is 19 and 19 with 2 remaining but vs the aces liberty and sun who are the top 3 wnba teams according to most people they finished 1 - 10....so if they can get over the hump of beating those 3 teams they could be very successful cause thats where half there loses come from...they have problem beating the other 8 teams easily
@@Jazz-eq4wu2rt8kno but she enjoys watching Smith miss free throws and keeps playing her in meaningful points of the game. At no way should smith be starting or in the game at the end. Fire both of them.
Why does Sides play Nalyssa Smith so much? She can’t hit a free throw is always +\- in the -. Doesn’t get rebounds. Meanwhile Tami F gets more points is usually in the +. More rebounds and can hit free throws. The team is much better when Tami is on the court. She moves much faster than Naylssa.
Watch Awful Coaching's analysis of the Fever defense - he is completely correct, the entire Fever coaching staff are incompetent morons and couldn't teach defense if their lives depended on it. The Fever players just have no idea how to play effective defense, which he showed with many examples (from the first Aces game a few days ago). Sure, the players have to execute what they're taught, but it's clear they AREN'T being taught. Missing defensive assignments sporadically is expected, but when those assignments are consistently missed the team has bad coaches.
I try watching him, but I can’t bc of the yelling. I wish he could change that bc I hear he has good points. I guess I could turn volume on mute and closed caption on.
When asked about adjustments at halftime, CC never says, "I talked with coach, and we ...." Not in this post game or EVER. Because Christie Sides is NOT a coach. She may have the title. But I feel sorry, for real, for this team having Christie Sides as a coach. If I were a player and christie was the so called coach, I would NEVER to hear her voice, give me advice, nothing, and I would stay as far away from her as I could until she is separated from the team, or I demand to be traded. Sadly, I love the players on this team, especially the CORE of this team. It's just this "coach". It's just an awful situation with her around. And it always will be.
Way too many turnovers...15 turnovers give the other team an opportunity for at least 30 more points. 6 turnovers by CC is not acceptable. Turnovers will prevent them from doing anything in the playoffs.
😂😂😂😂 dont be such a fan that you can't see that Indiana still a young team... A few personnel adjusting and seasoning they will be top 3 team in the league one day.
This team lacks toughness, physicality and discipline. They need a coach that can guide them. Christy Sides, I'm positive is not respected by her players. To be respected by the players you must back them up. You must be a great thinker of the game. You must game plan specific for the opponent. You must play the right combination of players at the right time. You must discipline players for making bad decisions repeatedly (Clark). You must be above all else, a teacher of the game.
Why aren’t you passing to Lexie for some reason she was open and can knock down 3s no one else was making their shots so if you want to win give her the ball!
Love CC bit lets be honest, CC played two bad games against the Aces and the team as a whole SUCKED at free throws. It's ok. There is always a team that has your number. The ACES are good ng to be CCs Detroit Pistons early in her career. For those of you who aren't aware, that is the team that gave Jordan fits for many of his earliest years.
Jesus idk if ive ever seen a worse coaching job. Yeah keep running that same bum play where cc passes over halfcourt runs to the paint to srt a pick then rolls off back to the perimeter....EVERY TEAM KNOWS THAT PLAY. Get smith on thr bench. I'm sorry shes cool but shes getting torched on d. Shes slow she goes up slow she can't shoot can't hit free throws why is she starting. Dantas and temi are clearly better. Temi defensively and dantas offensively. The whole fanbase can see this. Why can't sides. Caitlin stop complaining and moaning all game you look terrible doing that. Childish even. My high-school team would wreck this team by offensive sets alone. That's how bad their defense is. Sides runs a play that ends up in Boston shooting the three? At least put the ball in cc hands to draw defense and she can pass to km like what? Holy crap the coach is bad and i don't say that kinda thing lightly.
Fire Sides, Dunn, and the batch of these so called refs this league got from a high school league just pathetic having AB take the final 3 pt shot WHAT??? goodbye!
First, Christie Sides has no basketball sense what-so-ever and she most certainly should be fired; There are first year high school coaches that could probably do a better job. Secondly, the Fever are not a playoff caliber basketball team, they seriously do not have a starting five and that means that they do not have a bench that can be counted on to do much but keep the room warm. Not being honest about the make up of the Fever team is not at all helpful. As a team the Fever are not a team that shares the basketball, if it was not for Clark and Boston the Fever might not have more that five totral assists in any game. All of that boils down to the fact that the Fever are lucky to even be close to the "playoffs", when they have had to have last minutes of the last quarter miracles and wonders to beat the teams resting on one another in the league basement. Kelsy Mitchel, is a shooter and nothing more than a shooter, she seldom shares the ball and can not be depended on to fight for any rebounds, but given the rest of the Fever players she is what they have. NaLyssa Smith? Remember, the Fevver do not have a starting five. The Fever now face the Wings and the Mystics, two teams below 500. Don't look for the Fever to dominate or win again without a serious struggle agaist even these weak sisters. Remember, the Fever are only Caitlin Clark away from being the very worst team in the WNBA and they still are perhaps the most poorly coached team in the WNBA. It is not possible to reasonably think that the team can or will be any better next season, given the personnel that the management has chosen over the past several years. They are at least three top tier "team players", who can and will share the ball when they are in the game, away from being a team that has a ghost of a chance of being a league contender. Caitlin Clark, Aliyah Boston, and Lexi Hull will waste away with the Fever on losing teams over the next three years! Then again fantasy is more popular than reality in the WNBA or they would not still be an NBA charity wellfare case after 27 years. It is what it is.
You fans are blaming the coach for putting different players in the game and some of the players are not as good as some others but then again you hear from you fans that Caitlin Clark improves every player on this team so what’s up with you people
I like Christie, I don’t think it’s her fault when we lose. You don’t get season like this with an incompetent coach. There’s a reason they score often out of time outs.. why? She calls a great play. She got at least 2 more years, get comfortable.
I watch CC in postgames after a loss to calm myself down! She's so grounded and sensible🤣
If the coach would stick up for her players , SHE should get the technicals !
She's a coward.
I'm curious but I wish Christie Sides could explain why did she let AB take the 3 point shot with 24 or 34 seconds left? I apologize but I forgot how many seconds was left, when she has three of the hottest 3 point shooters in the league in Caitlin Clark, Kelsey Mitchell and Lexi Hull! Why???
The play clearly wasn't drawn up for AB. It fell apart and Mitchel found her open as she got stuffed on a drive and she took the shot.
Vegas is good and shut down the Fevers first 3 pt options. And, AB can hit that shot.

All of that boils down to the fact that the Fever are lucky to even be close to the "playoffs", when they have had to have last minutes of the last quarter miracles and wonders to beat the teams resting on one another in the league basement. Kelsy Mitchel, is a shooter and nothing more than a shooter, she seldom shares the ball and can not be depended on to fight for any rebounds, but given the rest of the Fever players she is what they have. NaLyssa Smith? Remember, the Fevver do not have a starting five. The Fever now face the Wings and the Mystics, two teams below 500. Don't look for the Fever to dominate or win again without a serious struggle agaist even these weak sisters. Remember, the Fever are only Caitlin Clark away from being the very worst team in the WNBA and they still are perhaps the most poorly coached team in the WNBA. It is not possible to reasonably think that the team can or will be any better next season, given the personnel that the management has chosen over the past several years. They are at least three top tier "team players", who can and will share the ball when they are in the game, away from being a team that has a ghost of a chance of being a league contender. Caitlin Clark, Aliyah Boston, and Lexi Hull will waste away with the Fever on losing teams over the next three years! Then again fantasy is more popular than reality in the WNBA or they would not still be an NBA charity wellfare case after 27 years. It is what it is.
You fans are blaming the coach for putting different players in the game and some of the players are not as good as some others but then again you hear from you fans that Caitlin Clark improves every player on this team so what’s up with you people
I like Christie, I don’t think it’s her fault when we lose. You don’t get season like this with an incompetent coach. There’s a reason they score often out of time outs.. why? She calls a great play. She got at least 2 more years, get comfortable.
You're clueless & don't know what a real coach is.
