That was the comment I was alluding to earlier that Thomas bristled about, like uh I just set the record, don't forget about me. To her credit she's been right behind Clark all year, (playing with more overall talent around her). Obviously she's not nearly the scoring threat that Clark is.

I think its clear by now that when it comes to her OVERALL skill set, CC22 is a unique player unlike anything that the W has seen to this point. Pretty much exactly what we saw in her 4 years at Iowa. The amazing thing is just how quickly she adapted following a tough welcome to the league.

Some on this board have suggested that Sides sit Caitlin for the last game with the Fever’s seeding locked in now in order to rest her for the playoff. Would she do that? Maybe. Will she dial her minutes back now that wins don’t gain any advantage?

If Caitlin plays close to regular minutes the last two games and averages her 8 assists per game, yeah, it’s pretty much out of reach. But what if she only records say 8 more assists due to fewer minutes or other unseen factors? That puts her at 328, 36 ahead of AT after tonight.

That would mean AT would need to average 12 per game to catch Caitlin. Would the Sun try to do that? Well, AT recorded 11 assists tonight while leading all players in minutes (33) in a 20-point blowout win. She attempted 6 shots. Up until the fourth she had only attempted 4. Gee, I wonder why all the minutes and why so few shot attempts? Why still playing in the fourth while up so big?

All I’m saying is that I’m not counting this chicken until it’s hatched.

True, the bizarre could happen, especially if CC gets a 7th technical. AT did finally sub out of that game with a like 3 minutes left so at least she's not quite chasing the record at all costs.

Am getting ready to head for today's game - should be a win today. I don't see CC sitting that last road game of season as many of the tickets were sold to people wanting to see her play.

Golly coach why would they scheme against those two taking the last shot?

The game also will likely have playoff implications for Washington, Chicago, and Atlanta. If she sits and Washington wins that would be unfair to Chicago.

Yeah, I see it’s in Cap One Arena. Wasn’t sure if it would be there or their tiny venue. Sides would piss a lot of people off if she sat Caitlin.

 

[hawkeye_wx]

Arike is going to light up the Fever again, isn't she.

 

[LOTOlion]

Can someone who is knowledgeable in basketball, please explain to me what is a foul in the WNBA?

 

[hawkeye_wx]

Jeez, zero defense so far by the Fever. Also, can't rebound.

 

[spiderland]

We may not see Indy win again this year.

 

[oldhawk56]

Oh Caitlyn.

 

[doughuddl2]

Looked like she picked up her dribble with 2 hands and then started dribbling again.

 

[hawkeye_wx]

What the hell happened to Clark's shooting? During the hot streak she was shooting pretty well, consistently.

 

[spiderland]

Looked like she picked up her dribble with 2 hands and then started dribbling again.

She did.

 

[hawkeye_wx]

21 f'ing points in the first five minutes for the Wings.

 

[hawkeye_wx]

There we go, CC.

 

[spiderland]

Has Lexie been told to stop shooting the three?

 

[hawkeye_wx]

Is anything more frustrating than watching the Hawkeye men and Fever try to guard against the three?

 

[JimStarr777]

This might be the worst defense I’ve ever seen

 

[spiderland]

I’m not sure why I’m still watching this anymore.

 

[hawkeye_wx]

Wheeler has been making her threes at a high rate.

 

[JimStarr777]

I’m not sure why I’m still watching this anymore.

Because this damn frustrating team will inevitably go on some crazy run, and it’ll go right down to the wire like every game.

 

[DTP2]

This team has been not been good since clinching.

 

[Chuck C]

That’s a man

 

[Chuck C]

Dallas with 11 rebounds, Indiana 5. That’s counting the last 2 before the end of the quarter.

 

[DTP2]

At least five straight home games down 10 or more.

 

[hawkeye_wx]

At least five straight home games down 10 or more.

Yeah, after clinching and coming home for a long homestand, the Fever kinda turned the switch off and reverted back to a version from earlier in the season. It won't be easy to turn it back on for the playoffs.

 

[hawkeye_wx]

Jesus, Fever, get the rebound. It's killing them.

 

[nu2u]

I’m This might be the worst defense I’ve ever seen

Have to get our best defender going. Here you go Jim…

 

[hawkeye_wx]

Clark has 14 points, 3-5 from three! Wow, the Fever needed CC to heat up in a big way.

 

[spiderland]

Christie. Sides. Doesn’t. Have. A. Clue.

 

[Allaroundfan]

Clark has 14 points, 3-5 from three! Wow, the Fever needed CC to heat up in a big way.

Also need defense and rebounding.

 

[DTP2]

Tackle Nalyssa Smith.

 

[spiderland]

Okay I’m 1000% in the trade Smith camp now

 

[JimStarr777]

Have to get our best defender going. Here you go Jim…

She might legit be the most attractive player in the W!
