Sides hates Clark. Needs one board for a triple double and won’t leave her in the game to get it.

It’s comically petty.

Nah, appropriate offense/defense subs. They already gift CC many, many rebounds. She's what KJH called the "wrangler'. Everyone else blocks out and she sweeps in for the rebound. It's how she gets so many.

What an etrocious BG brain fart/turnover. Just looks like she dgaf. Glad they lost.

Clark 15/9/12 not too shabby for a C- player.

Everyone is Dwarfed by Candace, and that’s every rookie. But this is about Reese having a historic streak as a rookie.

Amazing, just last week it was all about her not getting promoted. And here we are. Even saw ESPN give an atta girl.

Show me where they are promoting her games on the sports networks, the only time they promote a game she plays is when they play Indiana. But it’s whatever they can do what they want, and she’ll continue to just grind like she’s done at every level.

Go ask Holly Rowe, she’ll tell u exactly who she is.

I would bet that DT is very well-respected among the young players. No denying she is a legend and has more game than any 40 year old player should.

After years of therapy, meditative self-reflection, the use of mind expanding substances, spiritual pilgrimages, and two alien abductions, I can now accept the possibility that this notorious LV killer could potentially (emphasis on potentially) be an okay human being.

We’ll need to revisit this.

Dude, she played all but 33 seconds, despite picking up 2 early fouls, I hope your comment is snark

She found ways to help the team despite an awful shooting performance. 4 for 14 and 3 for 10 from 3.

Dont care how many minute she played. If a player is 1 board away from a triple double you let them see if they can get it.

Would have been the first rookie in history to record a triple double but her own coach couldn’t handle letting her do it.

No, you win the game. It was a 1-point game, you put your best defense out there instead of prioritizing triple doubles. Embarrassing take

I believe both could have been validly attempted

Interesting how two positions that are seemingly so far apart can be so unreasonable that they end up being close together. The take that Sides (and everyone) plots against CC is as unreasonable as the take that AR, one of the game's all time great PR artists, gets no PR.

Beating DT for the first time > triple double

Agree. Also the irony of complaining about CC falling a rebound short when they set up their rebounding scheme to feed her as the "wrangler". Only way a player that undersized with zero hops gets that kind of rebounding numbers.

CC will get her triple double, and numerous other 'firsts'. The W is comical in the number of 'records' they can scrounge up, just like baseball. First rookie to hit a 10 ft bank shot while wearing purple shorts! No end to it.

Wheeler isn’t their best anything.

You want you best 5 players on the floor in that situation. Clark is the best player on the team. No matter what you weirdos want to believe lol.

With the viewership and attendance numbers what they are, it's a legit argument over whether the Fever should showcase CC or try to win. Because we can see now they aren't the same. The Fever are best when they are a team and scoring is shared. That's when they've been able to win. But you Clark centrists have a legit argument that her followers who are creating the numbers don't care. They just want 25 shots w 15 of them being logo. Interesting dynamic.

Well, she did that in college and her team was very successful. She’s a great distributor AND scorer.

Wheeler and Wallace should be taking 0 shots. KLS should be limited to wide open 3s.

Mitchell and Clark should be taking the bulk of the perimeter shots then Boston and Smith should get work inside.

But this is the W and you don't win that way. We already saw that earlier with the Fever. But again, apparently with many uber Clark fans, winning isn't the point. It's a very strange new fandom.
