Caitlin Clark is a 3 point shooter. Christie Sides don’t want Cailtin Clark to shoot outside the 2 point shot perimeter. Caitlin Clark is on the worst team ever. Those seats sold, because of Caitlin. They got Charter planes because of Caitlin. The coach won’t allow her to play her game.
She's supposed to be Stephen Curry @veganpotterthevegan Curry can get open with or without picks. This is yall hero 😂. Gonna be a rough season. She's slow with average handles with a freshman college kids body.
Sides needs to go!!! She has a first team all-American and quite possibly the greatest female player of all time and it's clear that Sides is incapable of coaching Clark properly and using her effectively! I say bring in Bluder and get rid of Sides. The Fever sucked last year and already this year, even with Clark, isn't looking any more promising!
The coach has throttled CC so much, that is why she missed so many 3's in the 2nd pre season game. I agree with most of what peeps is saying here. I have watched CC from being a Freshman in H.S. and she has always been smart in when she only does her 3's. She needs to run the team when on the floor and be aloud to choose her own shots. She's smart enough to know when to pass, shoot and when to hold back. Coach sides says she is looking for the team to spread the defense out, but that won't happen when you're always making the team feed the center. Make the opponents go out to guard CC's 3's. Also make them use 2 - 3 to guard one player. That alone will spread the opponents out!
This was Clarks first WNBA game for crying out loud! Give her a damn break! Plus, she's fresh off a long college season and she must be tired and now she's faced with carrying a WNBA team just weeks later! She'll get it together!!!
Nobody's giving the other NBA girls a break this was everybody's first game and look what happened Caitlin picked up where she left off last year in handcuffs getting locked down by a single defender
Sides is obviously incompetent. When nobody watched or cared her poor coaching skills didn’t matter very much but now the club management needs to take action to protect their investment and not become a laughingstock.
She should be under fire. Caitlyn needs to be left alone to play the same game she set all the records doing. It's evident she has the wrong Coach The WNBA had no one watching and Caitlin has changed that and is benefitting everyone. Sides is being contrary and openly criticizing her and that is wrong. Not expected from the coach
Sides should be feeling the pressure because the team is not playing cohesively and it's her job to make that happen. She'll have a honeymoon period early in the season but she needs to start getting results.
First it was black people hating now its white on white heat, please stop it stop making excuses for this girl the coach warned her about moving without the ball and what did she do stand still and not play no defense and turn the ball over 10 times with it we expect was gonna happen and that's all on the coach if that's not delusional I don't know what it is
Needs to be fired her 😡 she doesn't have enough experience to deal with a star player and the WNBA is going to lose money. Overtime with all this negative feedback that she is presenting to the news reporters On national TV
The team had 25 turnovers Caitlin had 10 by herself Caitlin had a big part and then losing since she is the first pick and supposed to be the star but you can't win with 25 turnovers and that is not the coach how they respond will have something to do with the coach. Caitlin along with the rest of them will have to be willing to be coached up plays were called they just weren't executed. Unfortunately people are making Caitlin out to be the only player that can play so other players are feeling disrespected and going at her hard.
There is so much momentum coming into the WNBA. Caitlin Clark has brought so many new fans into the game to see all the talent that the WNBA has to offer. Now I’m worried Christie Sides is going to destroy the momentum. She is stifling Clark, not playing her in the correct spot, and it looks like other players are feeling defeated, as well. The Fever have the talent, now they need a coach to lead them. Fire Sides before we lose the new fans!!!
Get her out.. taking Clark's Swagger away.. let her run the floor... and clean up the sloppy play turnovers.. Clark is a great leader .. let her lead.. fire Sides
No matter what coach gets put in there the defense was too much for Caitlin you can't blame nobody but her. Caitlin took her average 11 threes and only made four that's not the coach's fault
This is what they get for disrespecting the rest of the girls in the league as if Caitlin is the only person who can play now she has to deal with everyone coming at her, welcome to sports where nothing is given and everything is earned she will either sink or swim. The coach did not cause those 10 turnovers the coach also told her about standing still and moving without the ball which she ignored 4 out of 11 from the three and they want her to keep shooting, OK
@@Mockingbirddontsing1 if you wasn’t so emotional you would think clearer. I actually watched the game. The coach drew up plays for Clark and she got locked up, and I’m a Caitlin Clark fan. Imagine you screaming “Sides is trying to destroy Caitlin”…crying like a lil girl 😂🤣
You are kidding Caitlyn made a lot of mistakes she was well guarded mostly but she still scored 20 points it takes time to adjust from college to the professional game it’s a lot faster with better players she did pretty good 👍 after a shaky start better team won on the day 39 games to go
This reminds me of the Lakers when Magic Johnson and Paul Westhead when tension ran high as to how to run the offense. The Lakers got rid of Westhead, brought in Pat Riley and the rest is NBA history! I say get rid of Sides and bring in Bluder who retired from Iowa!
I've watched Iowa many times this year and this is the first game Caitlin passed up three point shots when they were there. The coach is already impacting her shot selection with the threes, wanting her to take the deep twos? Be serious!!! I haven't seen a super-star be this restricted since Dean Smith used the four-corner offense with Michael Jordan.
I hope her other team mates can minimize their turn overs too and help with the scoring esp. Boston coz Caitlin can't do all the scoring and making plays in all 4 quarters.
Well Caitlin Clark and the other two ladies that can shoot the 3 point shots need to be able to shoot them also ! That’s how you take control of any games . When you have 3 ladies that can shot 3 point shots on a team you will win many games , just need to have those plays happen in the game !!❤
There will be many more she was the 1st pick she is expected to make an immediate impact. The hype will fuel any competitor to go at her hard because she is being presented as the best thing since sliced bread. No one is supposed to just lay down and let Caitlin do whatever she wants to do.
@@TaiyouArt for the most part this was an exciting game it just didn't have the results that a lot of people on here wanted people cannot say that they did not see talent up there this was more interesting than the New York NBA game
If the defense extends out to stop the 3, spread the court let clark take it to the rim. She was 6for6 Free throws, or passes, layups. When they back off again shoot 3s. Take what the defense gives you.
Indiana has a lot of good players. Give them some time. Maybe a bad coach, she has gotten first-round picks for a few years now, so it should start to look up.
I hope CC plays to her full potential. Her college stats indicate how talented she is. It is going to take time for CC to adjust to competing with and against equivalently talented athletes. It will take time for the coach to best determine how CC’s talents fit with her teammates. When Troy Aikman signed with the Dallas Cowboys it was several years and a new coach later before the athletes coalesced into a winning team, and they endured through some losing seasons before they reached their peak. Venus Williams did not immediately become the #1 seed in women’s professional tennis. The Fever team is going to have to mature together and it’s will take some time, no matter who is coaching the team. (Many of the impatient CC infatuated fans will and abandon CC before that happens.) Adopt a wNBA veteran for only $18.99 a month.
so many 'old heads' in the league wanting to prove a point - odds are stacked against CC - league just does not know whats good for it - CC is the only reason we are all here, she plays a style that is fresh
When u play a good defensive team you have to make adjustments the coach didn’t!!!She had no Plan B!!!When your plan A isn’t working on the matchups on the court then you have to have Plan B!! 😡🏀🔥
Here are my thoughts on the style of play the Indiana Fever need to run so that Aliyah Boston and Caitlin Clark can show the fans of the “W” what AB and CC do-and that straight up Ball! I like to her your sage thoughts 💭 Coach Sides won’t last past the Olympics break! The WNBA can’t afford for Caitlin Clark not to have her Stephen Curry moments of shooting about 25 to 30 shots a game-and yes I’m talking about launching 3$-which is her money shot and what the fans wants to see out of Caitlin Clark this year! Nobody cares if the Fever has a winning record in Caitlin Clark’s rookie season. Anybody that has coached or played basketball on any meaningful level knows it take more than three practices for a team to learn each others strengths and weaknesses and where they like to receive the ball at or the floor. If I were the coach of the Indianapolis Fever I would run the Paul Westphal offense (just run and gun and try to out score the Fever’s opponents!) Then during the offseason the Fever can work on their defense- and offensive sets…But, for this year… can we please turn Caitlin Clark loose and let her run the same offense she ran at Iowa-that worked… Iowa made it to back-to-back NCAAW Championship games! Therefore, the style of basketball Caitlin Clark needs to play has been time tested and proven. And I know her teammates won’t have a problem playing the Paul Westphal style of offense because of Caitlin Clark’s passing ability they would be getting a lot of layups and wide open spot up jump shots and 3$! Enough said…Call Coach Bluder so that she can show the WNBA fans would CC can do in Paul Westphal’s Run and Gun offense! The WNBA can’t afford to mess this up because as Eminem said-in “Lose Yourself…Look (WNBA you [have] one shot or one opportunity To seize everything you ever wanted in one moment, Would you capture it or just let it slip? Yo” (credit for the Eminem reference goes to “Behind the Line” podcaster. So come on WNBA owners of the Indiana Fever get Caitlin Clark and the rest of your Indiana Fever the coach they need or else you will [lose your fan base and that of the WNBA’$] or to quote Eminem - “Lose Yourself!”
Let Caitlin Clark shine and stop trying to dim her light. There is a reason she is one of the greatest players to watch. Coach needs to let Caitlin do what she does best hit those 3 pointers from the logo. The fever is definitely struggling and needs to be more aggressive with their rebounding and lay ups.
As soon as I herd Coach Bluder retired from Iowa, my prediction is the coach from the Fever will get let go either at the end of the season or if they get off to a bad start right then and the Fever will hire Lisa Bluder since she knows how to coach CC!!
not a good take, coaches are hired to make bad teams better, #1 picks are sent to the worst teams, they are expected to make immediate impact. in this case caitlin was just faced with better talent. caitlin's defender locked her down
Sides would be better suited as a Jr High basketball coach... developing players. These women are elite athletes and require a coach who can harmonize their exceptional abilities into a winning TEAM. Find that new coach, Indiana.
They tried having her on the ball, she struggled a bit with the doubles and turned it over. The took her off ball to make it easier for her to get open and handle the physicality
They keep doubling her and her teammates are just standing doing nothing, of course she'll turn it over. The coach didn't have plays to take care of these?
Christie say she been practicing hard and practice been good. They don’t look like a team that I’ve been practicing. They look like a team that don’t even know each other at all.
It's the coach let the young ladies take the team to the top you have a baller all you have to do is bring the game and team to a great high level not high school ball pro ball ❤
Enough is enough! Sides has no clue what she is doing. Too many negatives to talk about here. Not enough room. Wrong player combinations and the wrong coach for the best offensive player in the game to thrive. Huge changes must be made IMMEDIATELY!
Of course she wants her to be better than Caitlin because Caitlin wasn't good enough in the past it's a coach's job to coach the players up not remain the same. This is why she could not win on the college level you ask anybody whoever play on any team would they rather have individual stats or Championships and they will tell you championships every time. Nobody plays to lose
This coach has to realize that pressure is on everyone. The coach definitely needs to loosen up take a deep breath and let these players do what they do best!
The players job is to get the players to reach their full potential Caitlin was out there standing still and not moving it without the ball that is not the culture's fault she has already addressed this. the coach knows how important possessions are that's why she don't want her throwing up circus shots. caitlin was 4 of 11 from the three how much more do you want her to shoot. the coach didn't turn the ball over 10 times in caitlin's case or 15 times in the rest of the team's case.
@@rap3208 Curry was already dominant he just had to get coached up with the rest of his team. Mark Jackson taught the team how to move without the ball sides address this it just wasn't executed
That's gonna follow her in her whole career. Getting coaches fire. She's not in college anymore. We tried to tell y'all. Don't start that shit!!! It's her not everyone else...….
I like Caitlin and yes she is getting all the attention, which is good for the WNBA. I understand why some of the Vets are salty, but for the sake of the league, suck it up and play ball, because people are finally starting to watch you all.
Just a pathetic management of an incredible player. The Fever had a month to make player changes and remake the offense to fit the player they drafted no 1 so they do t make themselves into a compleye joke. They failed! Im guessing if things dont change really soon CC will ask to be traded. I wouldnt blame her. This is no fun to eatch let alone play.
Clark’s teammates can’t catch a cold. They have poor hands and fail to come to the ball when receiving a pass. The one back door cut by Samuelson there was no effort to go get it. Much of this is because most of the WNBA players are pretty one dimensional… dribbling a lot, shooting a lot because that’s what they’ve always done and except for bigs, it’s a new experience to score off a pass.
I’m sorry, but we can’t blame the coach for Caitlin Clark having a bad game. She’s not perfect and I don’t think anyone should expect her to be. Caitlin Clark that is.
Idk why yall shocked. She did the same thing to AB last year. She needs to make it known in the locker room who’s the number 1 option. Every team has a number 1 option except Indiana.
Looks like Sides is playing the team like she did last year. Which is why they only got 13 wins. Indiana is not an agressive team. Which will hurt them all season. They need to run man to man defense instead of zone. Indiana needs to learn how to be a transition scoring team. When Caitlyn isn’t on the whole team looks lost and no one wants to step up when she is being double teamed. Overall the approach isn’t looking good. But Caitlyn seems to be doing ok what she can with what she is working with
Gotta let Caitlin run free! Christie Sides needs to go.
Fire her, terrible coaching!
Caitlin Clark is a 3 point shooter. Christie Sides don’t want Cailtin Clark to shoot outside the 2 point shot perimeter. Caitlin Clark is on the worst team ever. Those seats sold, because of Caitlin. They got Charter planes because of Caitlin. The coach won’t allow her to play her game.

@@only1chicityarsonthey just repeat what they hear
@@only1chicityarson Sides called bad plays. Clark didn't get great looks for most of those 3s. Not enough functional picks
She's supposed to be Stephen Curry @veganpotterthevegan Curry can get open with or without picks. This is yall hero 😂. Gonna be a rough season. She's slow with average handles with a freshman college kids body.
Christie Sides needs to GO
It's team sport. No teamwork, no wins.
Coach needs to let Caitlin run free, what does she have to loose, that team sucks beyond repair.
FIREAWAY …she wants to show them she’s bigger than Caitlin…and that’s where she’s gonna get fired …who is she anyway FIREAWAY …
Unfortunately this isn't the NBA where every team can pay multiple fired coaches their full contract
Sides needs to go!!! She has a first team all-American and quite possibly the greatest female player of all time and it's clear that Sides is incapable of coaching Clark properly and using her effectively! I say bring in Bluder and get rid of Sides. The Fever sucked last year and already this year, even with Clark, isn't looking any more promising!
Greatest Ever🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Their spacing was horrible. Coach better correct this ASAP
Coach and many hating on CC22. She is trying to break a stallion and Make a jackass

Get rid of that couch and get a couch that wants to win with Caitlin now

Christie is obviously not impressed by Caitlin's ability.
What ability getting locked down by a single defender, the only time she showed any hope was when Carrington was on the bench
Sides should be feeling the pressure because the team is not playing cohesively and it's her job to make that happen. She'll have a honeymoon period early in the season but she needs to start getting results.
Sides is on a Honeymoon with Taurasi and not the fever or Clark. Time for an annulment.

Fire the coach!!! terrible.
Catlin shoots the ball too much. She was 4 for 11 in 3s and had 10 turnovers
Right now the offense is stand around and watch two players do a pick and roll. How about some screens on weakside or some screen the screener action.
I hope CC plays to her full potential. Her college stats indicate how talented she is. It is going to take time for CC to adjust to competing with and against equivalently talented athletes. It will take time for the coach to best determine how CC’s talents fit with her teammates.

Man fever are just mediocre as usual.Caitlin and the coach dont matter
She’s going to be the first player to get a coach fired in the W
Coach needs to learn defense it sucks Caitlin is bigger than coach fire her!!!
Last years #1 pick and rookie of the year was horrible. The whole team needs to get on the same page or else this season will be a disaster.
13-27 coach
not a good take, coaches are hired to make bad teams better, #1 picks are sent to the worst teams, they are expected to make immediate impact. in this case caitlin was just faced with better talent. caitlin's defender locked her down
Sides would be better suited as a Jr High basketball coach... developing players. These women are elite athletes and require a coach who can harmonize their exceptional abilities into a winning TEAM. Find that new coach, Indiana.
They tried having her on the ball, she struggled a bit with the doubles and turned it over. The took her off ball to make it easier for her to get open and handle the physicality
They keep doubling her and her teammates are just standing doing nothing, of course she'll turn it over. The coach didn't have plays to take care of these?
Sides is a losing coach ...full stop!
1:00 Aliyah Boston should have been doing this the entire game.
Christie say she been practicing hard and practice been good. They don’t look like a team that I’ve been practicing. They look like a team that don’t even know each other at all.
Yeah, everybody was on their own, high school teams work better together.
fire SIDES...
It's the coach let the young ladies take the team to the top you have a baller all you have to do is bring the game and team to a great high level not high school ball pro ball ❤
Enough is enough! Sides has no clue what she is doing. Too many negatives to talk about here. Not enough room. Wrong player combinations and the wrong coach for the best offensive player in the game to thrive. Huge changes must be made IMMEDIATELY!
she does'nt want to be caitlene🥵
🤧
Of course she wants her to be better than Caitlin because Caitlin wasn't good enough in the past it's a coach's job to coach the players up not remain the same. This is why she could not win on the college level you ask anybody whoever play on any team would they rather have individual stats or Championships and they will tell you championships every time. Nobody plays to lose
The ten turnovers aren't the coach's fault. Clark will play better once she finds her stride.
This coach has to realize that pressure is on everyone. The coach definitely needs to loosen up take a deep breath and let these players do what they do best!
The players job is to get the players to reach their full potential Caitlin was out there standing still and not moving it without the ball that is not the culture's fault she has already addressed this. the coach knows how important possessions are that's why she don't want her throwing up circus shots. caitlin was 4 of 11 from the three how much more do you want her to shoot. the coach didn't turn the ball over 10 times in caitlin's case or 15 times in the rest of the team's case.
I'll past judgement after the next game
Really? Curry took several years to become dominant, and you're giving her 2 games. OKAYYYY
@@rap3208 Curry was already dominant he just had to get coached up with the rest of his team. Mark Jackson taught the team how to move without the ball sides address this it just wasn't executed
That's gonna follow her in her whole career. Getting coaches fire. She's not in college anymore. We tried to tell y'all. Don't start that shit!!! It's her not everyone else...….
I like Caitlin and yes she is getting all the attention, which is good for the WNBA. I understand why some of the Vets are salty, but for the sake of the league, suck it up and play ball, because people are finally starting to watch you all.
Just a pathetic management of an incredible player. The Fever had a month to make player changes and remake the offense to fit the player they drafted no 1 so they do t make themselves into a compleye joke. They failed! Im guessing if things dont change really soon CC will ask to be traded. I wouldnt blame her. This is no fun to eatch let alone play.
Clark’s teammates can’t catch a cold. They have poor hands and fail to come to the ball when receiving a pass. The one back door cut by Samuelson there was no effort to go get it. Much of this is because most of the WNBA players are pretty one dimensional… dribbling a lot, shooting a lot because that’s what they’ve always done and except for bigs, it’s a new experience to score off a pass.
I’m sorry, but we can’t blame the coach for Caitlin Clark having a bad game. She’s not perfect and I don’t think anyone should expect her to be. Caitlin Clark that is.
Dang @jon the liquidator Angel cant get no love she won
He’s going for her fan base..
Who?
Idk why yall shocked. She did the same thing to AB last year. She needs to make it known in the locker room who’s the number 1 option. Every team has a number 1 option except Indiana.
Sides is clueless
Looks like Sides is playing the team like she did last year. Which is why they only got 13 wins. Indiana is not an agressive team. Which will hurt them all season. They need to run man to man defense instead of zone. Indiana needs to learn how to be a transition scoring team. When Caitlyn isn’t on the whole team looks lost and no one wants to step up when she is being double teamed. Overall the approach isn’t looking good. But Caitlyn seems to be doing ok what she can with what she is working with
