      Just wondering if you caught the second game. Two teams consisting of players who have played together for a while. Guards knew how to get the ball to certain players, what touch or velocity to put on passes, players seem to read each other minds when hitting cutting players. I say this because the Fever aren't there yet and with time, work they can get there. Fans need to stay calm and watch the development. Also appreciate the talent the Fever will compete against this year.

    Caitlin scoring 20 points while having an off game is incredible. Most of her turnovers were her teammates not prepared to receive her passes. Not saying she didn’t make mistakes but also her teammates barely sought her out on the floor to make shots. So many times she was open and the pass never came. I don’t even think I saw her even receive a long pass from a teammate the entire game! They really need to work on a lot of shit. Poor Caitlin looked so uncomfortable out there trying to find her sea legs basically doing everything herself with no one helping her. So much weight on her in all directions smh

    Good opening game from Clark, but what's even more impressive is how professionally she handles herself amidst all the pressure, and how intelligent and self aware she is in her responses to the media. Reminds me somewhat of the way Lebron James carried himself when he had the whole world on his shoulders as a rookie. I think she is very smart to remain humble, or else her being thrust into this spotlight so young might rub the more established veterans the wrong way. Her humility and selflessness are great leadership qualities, and as long as she maintains this great mindset and work ethic, her, Boston, Mitchell (who also had a solid debut) and the rest of the Fever will only continue to grow and learn to function better as a team.

      The Fever played a very good defensive team. The Fever is a young team, Clark was drafted a month ago, the team hasn't been together for more than 3 weeks. Hopefully, you go back to not watching the W as people like you lack humanity and know little about basketball.

      I think its just different and will take some time to adjust. The girl can't fart without there being a breaking news story - a little different from Iowa even though she was on the biggest stages in ncaa women's basketball. She also has to have time to gel with her teammates and coach. And she didn't get a ton of time between her last game in college and jumping into preseason. Again, she'll make the adjustment it will just take time. Likely her sophomore season she see more "team" success.

    2. Clark needs to get stronger. Weights, plyometrics, and yoga.
    3. Clark needs to get stronger and move better on defense. Weights, plyometrics, and yoga.
    4. Clark needs to develop a fall away and turn around jumper with in the 12 feet of the basket.

    Lisa Bluder prioritized Clark to be their dagger in the team because she has amazing skill, sense, and knows how to shoot, how to read the court, and yes she drew in the crowd. Here they took all her liberties and her chance to help structure her team based on her talents. Don’t see the proof look at Bluder, look at Sides. In fact, switch Sides with Bluder and imagine what would have happened to Clark if she was with Sides in college. We would have never known Clark because of how demoralizing and skill-less of a coach she is. Coaching is not about just yelling at your players and running them to the ground in practice, it’s about identifying each player’s strength and making every play be played as one with each other. Because of how exceptional Clark is, you utilize each teammate to feed and be fed by Clark as congruently as possible. If you have two or three players that just want to do what they want, well….sign up for some middle school basketball, it’s not going to work.

    They are working through the kinks. They need to allow Clark to play pg and reduce the dribbling. It was too much dribbling by the guards. Also AB needs to get started early and in her spots from last year. They are trying to find their identity, it’s a knew team. Extend grace! They will grow and learn. In 3 years they will be contenders for sure. I’ve been saying this since she was in college, Clark has a problem with defenders. If you’re not shorter than her, it’s a problem. She never experienced good defenders playing in the Big 10 (the weakest conference) because they were all in the SEC (the toughest conference) and when she went up against those girls, she scored but struggled and had to work really hard for her points. I am still rooting for you Caitlin, I like all the other sensible people knew you were coming into league dropping 40 pts like you did in the Big 10. Which is what Diana was alluding too.

    So I find the game on an alternative site and what do I see but Caitlin Clark being called for fouls when she did not even touch a player, and then Clark being constantly body and hand checked, to the point she can't come up the court in a basketball way, and fouls not being called on the other team.
    Meanwhile her teammates look like this was the first time they've touched a basketball their entire lives besides the other guard who plays with great energy.
    Absolutely zero cohesiveness in terms of an offensive plan and zero conditioning, I've seen much better transition and ball rotation in games at the Y.

The most noticeable difference between the two games was the defensive intensity. CC is literally facing playoff level defensive schemes, doubles teams, hard hedges near half court. Her teammates have to punish the defense for doing that. She is literally getting the very best shot of these teams while the other teams are playing against eachother like it is the NBA regular season.

Whether it was John Wooden, Geno, Pat Summit, or Phil Jackson’s Zen Buddhism with Jordan and the Bulls, there was a purpose and a plain from those coaches and those teams reflected their coach. I get the feeling that Christie Sides does not have the ability to reach her players and seems to not have a plan.

But im starting to see She’s something special and should be respected because of how hard its gonna be yea she has the contract but with that comes every camera around to see the hi’s and the lows’s she’s not gonna have privacy.
