I like Indiana's starting 5. They just don't have a bench. Against a good team they have to play their starters the whole game. They need help off the bench.
@@navinadv Fagbenle played the entire 4th and OT and was key for them cuz Smith had a bad day at the office. Katie Lou is the one who's been stinking up the joint and she's the 2nd highest paid player on the team.
Watching the highlights makes me cry 😢 it’s so beautiful!!! 😃 Clark scoring in baseline and doing a post play and Mitchell the trickster 🤣 stopping a fast break to shoot a 3 at top of circle blew me away! 😮 unreal! 🤣 There’s no team like this so shockingly fun to watch you can’t take your eyes off! Wow 🤯 play calling too fun too! Huge shout out to them!
It’s time to start Fagbenle in place of Smith and for our “defensive specialist” coach to make defense a bigger point of emphasis. The offense isn’t always going to win without good team defense.
Fagbenle takes no plays off. Smith has to be coached more (motivated). So when Smith isn't in sync, you bring Temi. But Smith was 3-5 FG (60%) in 17 minutes. Had a block, a steal, and 3 REB.
I think this is playing the long game. Teams ceiling, and if they’re going to legitimately contend for a title as soon as next year, is with Smith playing like the best possible version of herself.
The Fever's staring & closing 5 should be Clark, Mitchell, Hull, Fagbenle, & Boston. That lineup has the best balance of defense, shooting, rebounding, energy, and hustle. I'd only bring Damiris and Wheeler off the bench.
The Fever is growing into a complete team. Haters need to appreciate all players so the league can grow. A percentage of people demand inclusion for their beliefs/wants but spew rejection towards others. The game belongs to us all.
I was writing the Fever off in the 3rd. It wasn’t pretty, but they got it together and fought for the W in OT no less! “Bow! Bow! Bow! And a dub!!!” - Aliyah Boston
once Indiana gets a solid big rebounder and with this off season break, let CC be the floor general and eliminate the turnovers, yall will be unstoppable because the chemistry is there.
Their most crucial pickup is a backup Pg for Clark, one that will continue to run offense. They should draft Sonia Citron as she can run point and she's actually a SG with a good 3 point shot.
Nah, they can afford her, the question is could they find a trade for Samuelson because 4.5 points is not enough when you're the second highest paid player on the team. Besides Temi's 32, her value is not going to increase as much as it would if she was playing in her mid to late 20s.
Coach Sides needs to work Grace and Victaria into the rotation asap!!! Get them minutes befor the playoffs so that the Fever has more depth and fresh legs off the bench! Look what playing time has done for Lexi who was riding the bench for so long! Its almost criminal to have Grace Berger not in there for confidence building!!!
my favorite parts in the game was mitchell 1:50 and boston 3:07 went one on one with their counterparts several times and no one interupted then win each challenge.
..pls coach sides, run the dang ball all night..you have a young team and you can outlast all these veterans team..hell Caitlin Clark can play the whole 40 min game..plus 5 min in these overtime..
CC can increase the shooting success rate by shooting 3-pointers from close to the 3-point line. CC sometimes shoots from two to three yards too far from the 3-point line even when there is no opponent in front of you, but the shooting success rate is low because the shooting angle is low when shooting from too far away
they asked her about that. She says she is more comfortable shooting from farther out. She doesn't shoot mid range well either, except for free throws.
I love it when some yokel decides he has advice for one of the most prolific offensive basketball players in history...men and women. Did you just get off the bus? 😂
Nah, trade Katie Lou, Wheeler and Saxton. Free up that money to get Gabby Williams, plus a physical rebounder and a solid back up point guard to rest Kelsey and CC.
Why don’t you do a compilation of opponents’ reactions in the form of gesticulations or body movements reflecting disappointments and frustrations when Clark burns them. The Fever should have access to all of this year’s games from which to get them. So this compilation would be a human interest study; We already have an overabundance of Clark highlites. A great job for an intern, no?
That Miget point guard from Louisiana tech call herself telling the other teams in the WNBA how to defeat Lady CC, she made statement's that CC will not beat you. watch the interview. Kim Mulkey just clarifies whom I am talking about.
@Fever PR: why don’t you show Smith highlights of how she played during 3rd quarter start messing up the whole game flow by slowing down pace by doing hero ball & terrible defense getting lost constantly on rotations. Smith was main reason 4-pts deficit became 16 before Sides finally yanked Smith to insert Fagbenle who sparked defensive clampdown & comeback to erase most of 16-pts deficit. Fagbenle Didn’t slow down CC & game flow anymore. Notice Hull, Fagbenle, CC, Mitchell & Boston lineup last half of 4th quarter thru all OT… NO Smith, which was reason Fever pulled all way back pushing pace, flowing thru CC as defenses collapsed on her freeing up Boston on assist after assist. No Smith playing hero ball which unlike Mitchell will can score doing hero ball. Need to start Fagbenle & limit Smith minutes & touches. Do NOT give ball to Smith on low post… she has no court awareness to pass out of double teams & always off balance/ falling down after missed shots causing offensive fouls, TO’s or not getting back on transition defense since she fell on the floor. Honestly I like Smith, but she is not a good player & is a terrible fit for CC’s Fever showtime run & gun system. Smith is slow, terrible decision making, hurts more than helps majority of time. Need to bench Smith like Wallace & Samuelson. All 3 play terrible defense, are super slow on defense, & cannot contribute on offense.
Boston for the game ball!
What a fun team to watch

Don’t Temi and Hull come off the bench?
@@navinadvHull has been starting.
@@navinadv Fagbenle played the entire 4th and OT and was key for them cuz Smith had a bad day at the office.
Katie Lou is the one who's been stinking up the joint and she's the 2nd highest paid player on the team.
And that kills us against teams like the Lynx who go 9 deep.
Fagbenle and Dantas are good off the bench, Erica wheeler has been better lately as well

@@JoeL-xk6bo so true. CC does need a solid backup
❤love the Fever
AB CC KELSEY TEMI LEXI= WE WIN!
💯
go fever and cc! ab was fire. love from the Philippines
Clark ROY, MVP! Go Fever! CC, Mitchell, Boston, Hull, Temi starters, ,then Smith, Dantas, Wheeler subs.
Let's be honest a lot of these win coinciding with Temi's return. If she develops too much offensively we won't be able to afford her any more!
Nah, they can afford her, the question is could they find a trade for Samuelson because 4.5 points is not enough when you're the second highest paid player on the team. Besides Temi's 32, her value is not going to increase as much as it would if she was playing in her mid to late 20s.
CC22 is My favorite player ever 💪💪😎💪💪
All our Girls got that DAWG in em 😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤🤒🤒🤒🤒🤒🤒🤒🤒😍
Fever Five lezz goooo!!!!
Let’s go Fever
0:15 I like how she just looked at her and she knew to cut to the basket. She is a true maestro
When you have a high fever you need Cowbells!
I’m waiting for that 😂
The Fever is smoking hot!
Coach Sides needs to work Grace and Victaria into the rotation asap!!! Get them minutes befor the playoffs so that the Fever has more depth and fresh legs off the bench! Look what playing time has done for Lexi who was riding the bench for so long! Its almost criminal to have Grace Berger not in there for confidence building!!!
CC is a favorite, but my favorite is Boston.
The Atlanta Dream will be haunted by that kid screaming in their own dreams tonight 😂
Team chemistry 👍
Go Fever!
my favorite parts in the game was mitchell 1:50 and boston 3:07 went one on one with their counterparts several times and no one interupted then win each challenge.
CC for the game ball also!!
kelsey mitchell is probably the most accurate 3pt shooter in the league next to Lexie, Arike & Sabrina Ionescu.
😮 Chills watching this per the baskets and the crowds roar?
..pls coach sides, run the dang ball all night..you have a young team and you can outlast all these veterans team..hell Caitlin Clark can play the whole 40 min game..plus 5 min in these overtime..

Sit down. Her 3 point percentage is 3rd. Among the top ten scores in the wnba. Her deep 3's not only gets her team fired up but the crowd.
they asked her about that. She says she is more comfortable shooting from farther out. She doesn't shoot mid range well either, except for free throws.
I love it when some yokel decides he has advice for one of the most prolific offensive basketball players in history...men and women. Did you just get off the bus? 😂
Trade Smith and get a pure rebounder and this team never loses
Nah, trade Katie Lou, Wheeler and Saxton. Free up that money to get Gabby Williams, plus a physical rebounder and a solid back up point guard to rest Kelsey and CC.
