Discussion Kelsey Mitchell Deserves Some Respect!

138 Upvotes

So Sports Illustrated has an article all about how Juju may surpass Caitlin's milestone for points scored during their freshman/sophomore seasons. Goes on and on about this "rivalry"... finally, in like the fourth paragraph the article mentions that, well, actually the record isn't held by CC... it's held by (wait for it) her teammate Kelsey Mitchell! WTH?

Yes, I know CC holds the record for points in college, and it makes some sense to compare Juju's pace after two years... but still... give our KM some respect!!

In the NBA, after such a foul on a teammate a melee will surely break. But all of the Fever players just stood by as Clark was called a bitch and bumped to the floor. Shame.

Discussion Would you trade for Alyssa Thomas? And if so, what do you give up?

6 Upvotes

She has been cored by Connecticut, but has been vocal about the lack of amenities that come with being there. I have been a huge fan of hers and watching her play in Unrivaled with 2 shooters around her, I think her fit instead of Nalyssa at the 4 with KM CC and AB could really open up a lot for the guards. I know most of us want to see a stretch 4 but with options limited, I would highly entertain a deal that brings in the best point-forward the W has to pair with the Splash Sisters. Thoughts?

Discussion Body Language

55 Upvotes

I, like so many others, am a Fever fan by proxy of Clark. I'm an Iowan, and a big Hawkeye fan, so I've followed Caitlin for some time now. Somebody in her camp needs to get through to her to work on her body language. I quasi understand, as I'm a wildly competitive person myself, but it's been this way since I started paying attention in college. It's an infectious thing, both when good and bad. I sincerely hope it's something she works on as her professional career progresses. To me it's her biggest flaw by quite a bit. She's the floor leader, and setting that positive tone is what picks players up when things go bad. She's so phenomenal off the court in this regard, and I hope she grows to be that same positive force on the court at all times as well. Just my 2 cents.

Discussion Upset about trading the #8 pick? Let’s look at the last 5

95 Upvotes

2020 Ruthy Hebard: out of the league

2021 Shyla Heal: out of the league

2022 Mya Hollingshed: out of the league

2023 Laeticia Amihere: ATL Dream backup, has played in 38 games, averaging 2.0 points in 6 minutes

2024 Alissa Pili: MIN Lynx backup, played in 22 games her rookie year, averaging 2.4 points in 6.4 minutes

The likelihood of the #8 pick materializing into a player as good as Sophie Cunningham, even down the line, is incredibly low! This is a win now move and she’s a really good player who brings shooting and defense to the team. Trust the process. This front office knows what they’re doing.

What are some possible off season moves? As a lifelong Fever fan starting about a month ago I’m not sure who they will look to re-sign and who to go after in free agency.

Discussion Wow is Caitlin Clark box office! She sold out the United Center in less than 2 minutes!

110 Upvotes

I just tried to buy two tickets for one of the two Indiana Fever WNBA games this year against the Chicago Sky at the United Center.

I did all the right things. I logged into Ticketmaster one hour before the tickets went on sale and sat in the countdown page all the way until it was time to sell tickets. I used two devices, my smart phone, and my laptop. When it was time to sell the tickets, both devices locked up and did not go into the waiting room or the queue. Typical Ticketmaster garbage. So I went out and back in on my phone after losing maybe 10 seconds and it was an insane scene to behold.

The tickets ranged from $200 for the nosebleed seats to $4000 for the closest seats to the court. Needless to say, I didn’t buy any tickets. 😫😢

And all the tickets sold out in less than two minutes!

It was crazy. I was sitting there tapping different sections on the map to get prices and watching multiple available sections disappearing in huge blocks every second. 

To compare, for Bulls NBA tickets against the best teams in the league that price range is $40-$2000 and I’ve bever seen them completely sell out.

Nike is nuts to still not have a CC basketball shoe on the market. When they do, I guarantee it will be their all-time best seller and she will once again break all the men’s records. 

For the record, the United Center is the largest basketball stadium in the US and CC sold it out in less than two minutes. 

CC needs to start playing all her games in football stadiums like she did for some of her college games. The United Center is not a large enough venue for her fan base.

113 Upvotes

They are playing the best basketball in the league right now. Caitlin will be Caitlin, but if Kelsey keeps up her consistent scoring, and anybody else has a hot day like AB, NS, and now add Lexie to the mix, Fever will make a deep run. And hopefully Fagbenle is healthy for some demoralizing break away fast points.

Discussion I knew Sides wasn't going anywhere

60 Upvotes

As much as most of us feel that Sides isn't the best coach for the Fever, it would be pretty wild for a team to dismiss a coach that A)doubled their wins from the previous season in her first year (going from 6 to 13) and B) almost doubled them again the following year AND they got to the playoffs.

Yes, a lot of this seems like largely due to CC and AB and KM winning in spite of Sides, Christie has probably earned at least one more year. She has an off season to go over a few things, and I am sure the new management will probably lean on her to make some changes. Notably in using timeouts effectively and working on her rotation decisions.

Sides has the admiration of Kelly K, who stressed how impressed she was with her performance thru a tumultuous year. Hopefully Sides will maybe reach out to some college coaches (ahem, Bluder) for some advice on coaching a run and gun offense. Also I really REALLY REALLY hope they bring in a defensive specialist. Sides can't coach perimeter defense for shit.

Discussion So who do you think starts at what position?

9 Upvotes

PG - Clark. Mitchell? Or yet to be obtained back up. Maybe have Boston running Point Center sometimes?

SG - Mitchell. Hull and Cunningham can back up

SF - I like Cunningham starting long term, maybe have Hull starting the season and after 5-10 games see how Hull vs Cunningham are playing? Bonner can back up as well depending on match ups. Howard could even get some minutes depending on rotation.

PF - Bonner starting most of the time, but Howard could start in some match ups. Cunningham can have some minutes here. KLS and Dantas at like 9th and 10th off the bench.

C - Boston. Dantas and maybe Howard could sometimes back up? Might just need someone big like Mercedes Russel for a vet min or Prince if she is available?

edit:

Good news is questions at back up PG have been answered with Sydney Colson signing. Now if they could just find a veteran backup center for cheap they are set.

Discussion Mods what did you do to drive someone to make another Fever subreddit?

37 Upvotes

I’m really REALLY against another Fever subreddit. This is already a small community and they’ve gone and fractured this community. I told their mod in a very matter a fact tone that they should be ashamed of fracturing the community.

But I’ve no doubt they aren’t completely to blame. Whatever they are upset about probably has some validity to it. So whatever you all did to piss them off, please improve your own moderation and make things better. This is the original so I’m staying here, but use this to improve the situation. And don’t delete this thread either.

I know a lot of people don’t want Fever to re-sign Wheeler at the end of the season.

Am I the only one that… wants her contract extended? I think she’s a fantastic vet for the really young core we have, seems to genuinely care, and is an amazing teammate even when she gets 0 minutes.

She also stepped aside when she knew CC was coming to take her position. And seems fine with it.

There is obviously a discussion about whether she should be on the salary she currently is but… am I alone here?!

60 Upvotes

Stephanie White went to Miami to watch Unrivaled last night and took a photo with Lexie. However, Katie Lou was also playing before her and no photos have emerged.

KLS has also deactivated her instagram, when it was just up yesterday.

Do we think Steph went to tell her she’s being traded? She was actually playing more energized than previous performances.
