🚨 I’M DONE SUGARCOATING WHAT I’M WATCHING WITH THE INDIANA FEVER. 🚨

Some people are going to HATE this, but after Fever-Liberty, somebody needs to say it:

1. ALIYAH BOSTON — THIS IS NOT MAX-PLAYER BASKETBALL.
The interior defense has been ATROCIOUS. Bigs are catching the ball underneath the damn rim. Add the missed bunnies, shaky footwork and rebounds slipping away — what exactly are we paying max money for? THE STANDARD HAS TO BE HIGHER.

2. STEPHANIE WHITE’S 2-3 ZONE WAS COACHING MALPRACTICE.
New York puts FOUR dangerous shooters on the floor and Indiana decides to sit in a ZONE?! Then watches THREE AFTER THREE AFTER THREE drop and STAYS IN IT.

SIX THREES AND YOU STILL DON’T CHANGE THE DAMN DEFENSE?! WHAT ARE WE PRACTICING?!

3. THE KELSEY MITCHELL OFFENSE IS BECOMING PAINFUL TO WATCH.
Too many possessions are turning into dribble… dribble… dribble… head down… shot. The extra pass disappears. The ball movement dies. Everybody looks like they’re hunting THEIR offense instead of THE offense.

And now for the part that’s REALLY going to piss people off:

4. THE FEVER ARE TURNING CAITLIN CLARK INTO A ROLE PLAYER BECAUSE EVERYBODY SEEMS DETERMINED TO PROVE THIS ISN’T HER TEAM.

I’m calling what I SEE.

You have arguably the most dangerous playmaker in basketball STANDING IN THE CORNER while everybody else gets to audition for lead guard.

Clark finally hits TWO STRAIGHT SHOTS and starts cooking?

SUBBED OUT.

Indiana is within one possession when she leaves. She comes back minutes later and they’re DOWN NINE.

HOW MANY TIMES DOES THE SAME DAMN LESSON HAVE TO BE TAUGHT?!

And I’m going there: THIS IS STARTING TO LOOK LIKE AN INTERNAL POWER STRUGGLE ON THE COURT.

I can’t tell you what Boston, Mitchell or anybody else personally feels about Clark — none of us are in that locker room — but the basketball is giving off a TERRIBLE perception: everybody wants to prove their importance instead of accepting the obvious.

CAITLIN CLARK IS THE ENGINE.

That doesn’t diminish Boston.
That doesn’t diminish Mitchell.
It should make THEIR JOBS EASIER.

But instead of building around Clark’s gravity and playmaking, Indiana keeps finding new ways to minimize it.

THIS TEAM DOESN’T HAVE A TALENT PROBLEM.

🔥 IT HAS AN IDENTITY PROBLEM.
🔥 IT HAS A COACHING PROBLEM.
🔥 IT HAS AN ACCOUNTABILITY PROBLEM.

And until everybody accepts their role and starts playing complementary basketball instead of MY-TURN-YOUR-TURN basketball, the Fever are going to keep wasting one of the biggest advantages in the entire WNBA.

CALL A SPADE A SPADE. THIS IS A MESS.

@LakotaMan1 Yep

[Bring Back The Magic Bus @BringBackBus]

@JoshReynolds24 Maybe he Cali kids should swung their bats a little. They had 0 hits

[Bring Back The Magic Bus @BringBackBus]

@carleighh2030 @JoshReynolds24 Naive, simplistic response. The strike zone is a relative concept. Not swinging, even at strikes or borderline strikes may have cost them the game. People are losing it over one call.

@AxelDescan91074 @ULTRA0AKLAND @M_Malgg I was right You are a moron

[Bring Back The Magic Bus @BringBackBus]

@AxelDescan91074 @ULTRA0AKLAND @M_Malgg Ump says different. Next moron please

[Bring Back The Magic Bus @BringBackBus]

@editti22 Ump thought differently. Protect the plate.

[Bring Back The Magic Bus @BringBackBus]

@AxelDescan91074 @ULTRA0AKLAND @M_Malgg Bullshit. Swing the bat. Cali decided to roll the dice with bats on their shoulders. Dangerous approach in little league

[Bring Back The Magic Bus @BringBackBus]

@ULTRA0AKLAND @M_Malgg So the volunteer ump is a piece of shit. Tells me all I need to know about you dickwad

[Bring Back The Magic Bus @BringBackBus]

@czabe @duck_donuts Cali was hoping to walk all inning long

[Bring Back The Magic Bus @BringBackBus]

@ChicoSharking @BaseballQuotes1 I think the bats are provided to ensure fairness. Give the kid a break dipshit

[Bring Back The Magic Bus @BringBackBus]

@ERSANlTY @Daddys_Tired @espn Actually it doesn’t. Try reposting again in common English. Hope this helps

[Bring Back The Magic Bus @BringBackBus]

@Daddys_Tired @espn It’s a curve ball. Broke back in. Tough call for Cali tho. Easily could have been a ball
