    Caitlin can legit shoot from anywhere. Her range off the catch and shoot is crazy

    13:35 - Interestingly, CC made two floaters in the past 2-3 Fever games; seems like she's starting to incorporate it into her game.
    17:15 - CC also doesn't like to drive to the left (in relation to the basket).
    20:36 - The Iowa post player should've drilled her left shoulder into the LSU center's body and/or used an up/under move.
    23:14 - I thought I saw a similar hostage dribble move in the last Fever game; CC passed it to Aliyah Boston (center) for the score.
    25:20 - Another one of CC's tells is when she guides the ball to her non-dominant hand (left) before launching a deep three.
    32:15 - Surprised to see CC drive left (she normally goes to the right). Credit the LSU player (and coaches) for making it difficult for CC.
    33:15 - CC should've baited and/or waited until the center committed, before dumping it off (or shooting).
    Maybe a breakdown of a few top draft prospects for the 2025 WNBA? What do you think their ceiling is? Why? Will WNBA teams see an immediate impact from their contributions year 1?

      I was watching a few Fever games and noticed the added floater game too. The break was helpful for her. The other observations are really good and I agree. As far as more WNBA content goes, we will see. I mostly watch CC right now.

    At 9:01 idk if the LSU defender was nervous or what but it's like her balance was taken from her like why you stumblin' around like that 😂. Awesome analysis 💯

    That looks like my old Telecaster back in the corner. I often wondered why Sides delayed employing this running attack offence. Clark attacks making defense collapse giving open looks for elite passing.

    Huh... thanks for bringing this game back to my mind. Its really funny watching Indiana games right now and then get this throwback breakdown. Cause a lot of the same actions Iowa ran are now run by the Fever. And I mean the exact same plays.
    5:15 is a double whammy for example. The Snake under over cut to get CC open is a stable in the playbook, as well as the Shooter cutting from the empty strong side, cause the entire rest of the team loads up the weak side. The Fever run both plays basically every game several times with either Mitchell or Hull as the cutter. Or 24:10 Thats basically a stable in the Boston/Clark 2 man game. Boston for example made the exact same FT line jumper in the last Fever game agaist the Wings. 26:51 of course... I mean you see hard runs like that from Mitchell/Hull/Fagbenle at least 4-5 times every game.
    There are a lot more, but those 3 came to mind directly, cause the Fever run them basically every game several times.

    Since you asked, a breakdown of the Penn State game when Caitlin assisted Hannah Stuelke (45) to a 47 point game, breaking the Iowa scoring record!
    FYI number 44 who featured in a few of the plays you chose is 6'4" Addy O'Grady, who is a senior this year at Iowa.

      True. 45 pts before CC broke that and had 49 pts.

    Thanks Jordan. Feel like my basketball IQ has been doubled 🙂👍. Never played/watched before CC so having someone knowledgeable break it down so clearly has raised my appreciation for the game, the players and CC in particular.
    I’ll enjoy watching the Fever even more now I have a better understanding of how they’re doing what they’re doing.
    I would be interested to see an analysis of how the Fever have changed since the start of the season. They look like a different (much better) team since the break.
    Thanks again.
    Be well.

    Good analysis from a colleague of these players. It's not often we get insights from someone who played at college level. Well done.
    Steph Curry agreed CC's release of the ball is as short as his own. That I find very, very impressive - hence the comparisons.
    On a side note:
    4 of the most analyzed (not only stats but also under the microscope, ie, specific situations during gameplay ) are Tom Brady, Cristiano Ronaldo, Messi and Steph Curry. Conclusions by scientists is that these players are in fact unique, they can process many more bits of information than the average player. I see the same kind of "situational awareness" in CC. May be related to IQ (specifically, Fluid Reasoning, Visual Spatial, Working Memory, Processing Speed). These athletes are fascinating.
    I wonder: with the seniors graduating, CC and Kate gone, Gabby as well, Bluder as well, Jan Jensen has a tremendous challenge in front of her. Looking at the newcomers and what's left of the team, what are your thoughts on the short to mid term future of Iowa?
    Subbed, btw.

    You did this very clearly and you saw the plays well. I'm anxious to see this kind of video from Caitlin in the W where they make somewhat better adjustments that have already caused Caitlin to adjust. I bet Haley V wishes a whole lot of people would have seen this and known that her coach and bigs set her up to fail miserably. Her fancy coach was much more at fault than Haley, I can now see.

    • @balancedbasketballacademy

      Yeah, I didn't state clearly enough that the coaching moves from LSU were...confusing. Not even trying a blitz until the fourth is absurd.

  • @VeraxMusic
    @VeraxMusic 13 дней назад +1

    I wonder if there's any connection between her thumb push-off mechanic, and her ability to hit midrange shots at the same rate as 3 point shots, in terms of getting less arc on the shot, and having less margin of error on a midrange shot that doesn't have arc. As opposed to a 3point shot, where you can still technically line drive it, even if not ideal. Just wonder if her thumb use is actively impacting her midrange game besides floaters/layups.

    I agree with you that it's not an ideal way to shoot the ball. However, when someone has there shot down like she clearly does, you don't try and change it.

  • @deanroddey2881
    @deanroddey2881 11 дней назад

    I think they didn't want to put Johnson on Clark because she could have ended up in foul trouble and they couldn't afford that. I think also Hailey was badly under the weather for this game to start with, so she was sort of doubly screwed.
    That Iowa team sometimes almost needed to have a down cycle and get into trouble in order to get them ramped up. Then, once they got into a positive cycle, it was hard to slow them down.
