      This team has no identity. Or individual players believe their individual play is their identity thus a bunch of players going one on one to the basket. The other teams have appeared to have strategies to deny the few things that the team does well. They double or triple team, being super body aggressive with the threats. The Fever loses rhythm and turns the ball over. Clearly CC knows how the team should play, but the balance of the players only show a thin veneer of belief. Hence the ease of breaking down the Fever's overall execution.

    Christie Sides doesn't know what she wants. She demands the Clark focus more on midrange shots. She determines who should take shots at the end of a close game, then criticizes Clark for not shooting more. She doesn't provide any sort of
    helpful guidance that might motivate Clark's teammates to enable greater use of her immense talents. I fear the Fever are a lost cause as long as Sides is at the helm.

      I get the impression that her teammates were skeptical and jealous at first, but have been getting won over slowly and steadily. Clark's insistence on never throwing anybody else publicly under a bus, constantly trying to throw dimes that make her teammates look good, all that helped. Boston in particular seems to have come around in a way she hadn't at the beginning of the season.
      Of course, another great move would be "Look, we build some great teamwork here, next time the ad men start knocking, I'll ask my agent to include you too, and we'll all be doing better." That might have happened behind the scenes, for all we know.

CC earlier on has the ball a lot, running point guard making about 120 assists in 19-games to date which offsets half of 106 TO’s for NET 67 assists positive. CC is actually being super productive (scoring, assisting, forcing attention from 2-3 defenders to free up others for cuts/ open shots ) making her team better (when they run her kind of popular & winning showtime IOWA brand run & gun game instead of others playing solo hero ball while icing CC out & making her into regular WNBA player stand in corner like Wallace does all the time). The whole team sucks at defense not just CC, but she brings other skills including eyeballs & revenue that others do not.

    Agree that Sides is in WAY over her head and doesn't seem to improve her decision-making and refuses implement changes in strategy and players on the floor. But, equally important is that CC has very little help on the floor. Some of her team mates are just not up to the task. She is making some great shots, but NO ONE consistently screens so that she can step back and make her long shots. I saw very few Fever players coming to stand still between CC and the Storm defenders, who were relentless. This kind of defending against CC will be the norm, so something has to change now! In the fourth quarter, CC realizes it's almost impossible to push off and step back to shoot, so she passes. When she passes half of the time her teammates don't score. They need to actually practice layups and screening every single day! Teach them how to correctly do these things and require them to repeat them over and over. Otherwise, the Fever are repeatedly going to disappoint as a team and CC is going to deflate. That would be sad for all concerned.

      Teams are packing the center which will continue until the FEVER hits outside SHOTS.
      SOLID SCREENS need to be made. Players must learn to catch PASSES. It is not just that Clark is attributed with turnovers when team mates drop passes that hit them square in their hands.
      CLARK receives more blitzes and double teams than any player in the WNBA let alone rookies. Still.. She is balling in spite of the coaching pettiness and incompetence, and jealousy demonstrated by players even on her own team. Why???
      GIVE THAT BALL TO CLARK and let her COOK. She will make the right basketball play. But she is a scorer and facilitator not just a passer and decoy designed to shade her shine, recognition, and development!!!

      @@isaacclark9825 I agree with the stats. In my opinion the details are not found in the stats. Sides keeps Clark out of rhythm . Purposely at that. Sides does not run an offensive scheme that supports Clark's strengths and shooting ability. Sides wants her to pound the ball to the BIGS in the paint and then stand in the corner as a decoy. Besides that, no player knows how to set a SET PICK to free CC . And when CC dies come off of curls Wheeler, Wallace and SMITH, never give CC the ball in position to shoot. That would be to easy. No they all DRIBBLE DRIBBLE DRIBBLE and then shoot some type of AIR BALL or blow a layup.
      CC is only two months from playing COLLEGE Ball where she became the greatest scorer in DIVISION ONE COLLEGE BASJETBALL - MAKE OR FEMALE!!! None of the WNBA PLAYERS came close to shooting lights out in college . Nine. And when given ample opportunity, CC shows what she can do. Right now CC is blitzed, picked up 94 feet, and double teamed more than any rookie WNBA player or veteran has received. That is why CC's stats are low. Another stat in question. TURNOVERS... FWVER PLAYERS can't catch passes and miss layups. Who takes the hit ??? CC!! Mind you she does make her own unforced reports.. She must work on half court dribbling drills against heads up one on one defensive pressure.
      Anyway, CC is the real deal. Sides needs to coach high school JV and not Division one Ball with elite talent as CC. Team mates need to get off their ass and defend CC, catch passes, and make shots and layups. And stop dribbling the ball until there is only 3 seconds on the shot clock to pass the ball, shoot an air ball, or have the ball stolen!!!
      Teams don't want CC to embarrass them.

    Three things that will change the trajectory of the Fever immediately. 1) bring back Celeste Taylor She has not been claimed by anyone yet. Young promising and great defensive player. Team has looked very lack luster since her being cut. 2) fire Sides and go with a strong personality that will put everyone in a position to win. Maybe a retired college coach Geno, Coach K, or what’s her name from Iowa, for the rest of this year and find a strong male protege next. Buy hiring one of those three college greats it would show that the team and the league are serious about being in the conversation. 3) take the trash out, either by the bag or a piece at a time until the attitude is straight. If a team mate gets assaulted other players better be ready to throw hands in defense of that teammate.

    My daughter used to play on a college team much like the Fever. Their coach was non-responsive to making changes as needed, and she rarely calls time outs to talk to her team. These women as a team need extra reinforcement as to what their roles are. They must catch the ball when passed too. They must believe that TEAM play is the only way to prevail (WIN!). I'm sick to death of many of these players believing that their greatness can be displayed when they go hard to the basket. Even if they have THREE defensive players in front of them. Their team play judgment is almost ZERO. Their overall effort is near ZERO. They play like entitled brats (but this is true for most of the WNBA). Stop hacking ladies, defense is about body position, every time you reach, you give a gift to the other team. And then, the clock runs out and you must face the after-game press about your choices.

Caitlin elevates her teammates, and a bunch of 3-star recruits wind up defeating a team full of taller, more athletic 5-star recruits. Yes, Clark could have used a couple more talented teammates and Iowa would have two national championships. But making two finals with the teammates she had was amazing coaching by Lisa Bluder and Caitlin elevating her teammates.
