It’s a bit sad to see all the negative comments directed towards Coach Sides. As an Iowan and Clark fan I don’t see any animosity in the comments coach Sides made. My guess is she is trying to figure out how to put Caitlin in the best position to succeed while building up the rest of the women on the team. Guarantee you that Caitlin is okay with that as she wants the W more than anything else.
You get it. People are silly to think that Coach Sides would say anything to disrupt the synergy this young team has. Or would intentionally break the trust she’s establishing with Clark and the team. Take it from a person who is a former athlete on a high level; coaches and players converse. She’s not saying anything the team doesn’t know. She’s being practical and realistic.
@@InsertwittypunchlinehereI have listened to coach Bluder closely all year. Monday night hawk talks. She disclosed a lot about the team, goals, problems etc without saying personal or hurtful things. She would directly refuse to answer comments about strategy.
@@colleenposadas8415 Coach Sides did not disclose strategy or anything that us as spectators did not see. She said the exact same thing Becky Hammon, coach of the reigning champions said. They need to work on certain aspects of their game individually and collectively. The end.
I am so excited and anxious I can hardly contain myself to stay calm till tomorrow night! Never been so excited about any games as these before! Maybe the Super Bowl! But this is insanely exciting 😃 I am freaking out! 🤪
Carver Hawkeye Arena doesn’t have air conditioning? That explains so much for the temp change from court level (very cool) to the concourse (very warm).
Yeah!!!!! Glad others noticed Wheeler like I did! She is an awesome person too! What a great supporter to Clark she has been! Stunning! I hope these two start tomorrow! Fierce duo!
This coach just does not know how to keep her mouth shut. Bragging how Kelsey was so fast that Caitlin wasn't ready for her. Hell, why don't she just put a bigger target on Caitlin's back. Jesus. She is the wrong coach for Caitlin. It seems like she wants Caitlin to fail.
New to the WNBA and I am becoming a big fan of Aliyah's. Have to say that in the two interviews that I have seen with the coach she has taken shots at Clark. Seems like she is going out of her way to get on her. Like Belichick did with Brady. Wish she would stop.
It's called being a coach, she isn't their mommy. If they're sucking she should say so if they don't like then get better. Ya must be one of those everyone needs a trophy safe space peoole. Grown @$$ adults should be able to take criticism without whining n bitching.
@@dennishartley5681 KEEP her open comments in the locker room, it does not belong in front of a media microphone. She is a narcissist who wants the world to know she is the boss in charge. The hell with talent. There is a reason she was a career assistant on a Lottery Draft team 2 years in a row. Caitlin could run the team better than she can, because she has really studied the game since she was 4 years old. While other players were social justice warrior activists, Caitlin was in the gym hitting 500 shots a day. This coach does not have the right temperament to guide a team to success. I wish Caitlin would stand up and explain to her who has the fate of the franchise in her own hands... as well as the league. If she pisses off Caitlin, the GM and League Commissioner might have something to say about that. I bet if Caitlin told the Commissioner that she cannot work with this coach, she would be gone in under a week. The League management knows where their bread is buttered. They already tipped their hand when they gave in to chartered flights last week.
That has always been an area of her game she needs to work on. I noticed that was a weakness of hers in college. She has to lock in and not allow good defenders to frustrate her, much easier said than done. Lol. She has a few other adjustments to make. She’s pretty good now but when she develops into a complete player, it’s going to be a joy to see. The young lady is special.
I remember when that SC player did that. Iowa lost the championship, but Caitlin still got 30 points. Evern broke the record for most 1st quarter points in a championship game, 18.
@@malebovinemanure Right and Caitlin struggled that game and was visibly frustrated. The game against UCONN in which Iowa won, same thing Muhl gave her a hard time. She scored 21. Those women who guarded her all came from the SEC (toughest conference) and aren’t even the best defenders (Muhl is Raven isn’t.) Still, she never won a championship on the collegiate level. That’s what’s held over her head. Now she’s in the pros and has an opportunity to win. She has better players around her now, so as long as she remains disciplined and humble (parents did an amazing job with her) she’ll be unstoppable. I want Caitlin to kick butt and to continue to grow the sport. She is absolutely great for the sport but I’m also realistic; I saw weakness in her game and the great thing about that is as good as she is, there’s opportunity for growth. Which will only make her that much better. People need to realize a critique or something factual about a player you may like is not an indictment on that person. You can probably go under Steph Curry’s games from college and see my comments on there, loved him but knew he would have an adjustment period in the NBA. He did and has 4 rings. I believe the same with Caitlin.
don’t get your hopes up😂 this isn’t iowa. cc will be cc, but she has better talent surrounding her so she’s probably working on being a more all around player
@@01NATHAN10 no one is changing CC. I’m a CC fan myself but i’m being realistic. She doesn’t need to have 25-30+ point games in order for her team to win.

At least let her coach some games and see how the season is going before yall start calling for a new head coach. Grass ain't always greener, and unless the Fever are gonna poach Becky Hammon from the Aces or get another coach from the Popovich tree, who out there is an upgrade and is willing to coach a wnba team?

FANS ALERT FANS!!! IF THIS COACH WANT HER TO CHANGE HER STYLE YOU WILL NOT BE WATCHING AN EXCITING GAME. Why even draft a player like her if you aren't going to utilize her style and shot. Let's change Caitlin to another player like everyone else. I guess this would make the team like her other teams. No need to change up the teams game if you don't have a player popping 3's and opening up the game for her teammates. I guess the Fever management don't want to make $$$. Fans return your tickets or boycott the games until this coach is gone or admits she was wrong and needs to change up her plan for the team. Come on Fever. Need some leadership or you going to lose ALL THESE NEW FANS THAT ARE VOICING THEIR OPIONS. I know I am only watching WNBA due to Caitlin playing. If it weren't for her I would just watch the NBA and college ball. Crazyness I tell you or rather total mental break on them. She can't handle this style of play. She don't know what to do. So did the coach decide to change Mr. Curry's shot? or um Reggie Miller's shot? Nope the coaches adapted to their play style and look what happened.

I love how well Aliyah and Caitlyn do during interviews, very articulate and intelligent.
I Agree. True Professionals even off the Courts
Totally agree. Very classy and these rookies (Reese, Cam etc) deserve to be treated with respect vs outright hazing.
Let’s GO Boston! Play hard! You are a star 🌟 and we want to see it! 👍
Funny how that coach has never mentioned the 3 or 4 times in that last preseason game that her veterans weren't ready for CC's passes.

College coaches get paid millions for top programs. WNBA ones get 300,000$ . I think Bluder makes like 2 or 3 million a year
I agree!

FANTASTIC!!! #GoFever #IndianaFever @IndianaFever
Cant wait for tomorrow
Wheeler be killin we need her to do her thing!!!!!!!!!!!!
Ohhh yeah!!! I loved her last game she played like a Tiger!!! 🐅

having gone through Iowa's graduation at CHA back in May of 2018, can confirm it was very not fun lmao
FIRE SIDES.
You need to get your conditioning in BIG TIME! CC needs speed!! Let's work and fly down the court! Play BB!!
Geez don’t let that coach speak 😖😬 😨
Let #22 be herself. Coach needs to keep that Caitlin negative in the locker room.

To help with CC bring Bluder in to help both sides with the transition
I’m curious who the final cut is. The roster on the Fever app has 13.

Lots of very good Fever players
Indeed! Now we finally see all the talent come together! I was impressed with their skinny center too and Erica Wheeler and the other two gards!
They pack so many games together, it'll be crucial for the bench to be strong. But they have the players for it.
This professional, black woman handling all the cliched sports questions as best as she can when all they want is some 'scoop' about Caitlin Clark.
Coach Sides handling the pressure good she will lead the Fever to the playoffs 😏
Every interview the coach does, she always has something a little negative to say. keep it in the locker room.
