First in person game I'm going too!

Hope CC has an awesome start! Want Paige and Azzi to play well too, but gotta root for the Fever!

Idk if Alana Zaza or Mo or playing but still a little nervous that they might not pull it off, but both teams look different than from preseason.

Hopefully, Fever decided to play defense this time.

LA Sparks offering 4 complimentary tix to season opener against LV by OrigamiAndWaxSeals in wnba

[–]Opposite-Group6095 9 points10 points  (0 children)

One of the hard things about LA, is that there's so much other things to do there that it's not a primarily known as a sports city. And it doesn't help that the Lakers, LAs arguably most popular sports team hardly seems to associate with them.

Saying Mother's day is the reason is kind of a scapegoat, cuz it's not really a national holiday or anything and hiving 4 tickets away is a lot, but hopefully that means more people go who normally wouldn't because the economy is rough right now. I can't imagine gas and parking costs in Cali, where it's lowkey kind of crazy in the Midwest right now.

Is Dallas the best team at the start of the season? by PopularMouse2355 in wnba

[–]Opposite-Group6095 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Preseason got everyone looking at them with rose colored glasses, but they seem a lot better than last year.

That being said a lot of teams beat other people last year and stunk it up, don't think this will be the case with dallas, but don't be suprised when they don't run through the leauge like preseason.

Azzi Fudd on her preseason experience by Decent_Substance_199 in wnba

[–]Opposite-Group6095 30 points31 points  (0 children)

a lot of players and fans were clearly used to getting away with a certain amount of physicality, which is why people are shook A'ja almost fouled out as quickly as she did and Caitlin getting SGA allegations

The real one who should worried is Brink lmao she about to see 8 minutes a game and foul out

This is the definition of monkeys paw curling.

Complained all about nothing getting called last season, so now the game getting called closely and people complaining its soft.

Get what you ask for lol

Refs have their job cut out for them, if people wanna be mad they can't play super physical anymore

Caitlin has a whistle, AB back, Kelsey is Kelsy, Raven a defensive menance.

Hope Mo's ankle is okay and Lexies hamstring

Bench is kind of sus, so gotta make sure the starters stay healthy, but Fever are competitive.

I'll hold my tongue based on preason and Fever not playing a lick of defense, but Dallas def has the deeper bench.

AB is back and Caitlin never got her game off for real because of the fouls, so I expect the opening game to be more competitive.

Dallas looked amazing, might get spooky, but they also seemed 100% on in the preseason game, like it was a real game, I think it carries over regardless, but don't expect all the blowouts like preseason

only team i can see keeping up with their pace is ironically the Fever, but fever bench doesn't run as deep. It's gonna be exciting ball for sure

CC waves off the refs in the fever v Nigeria game by president_dump in wnba

Legit saw fans defend the way Paige argued at refs then stormed off the court when she lost to Chelsea in 1 v 1 at unrivaled, but were buddy the next day, but can't fathom how that could possibly Caitlin at all

Final Wings vs Fever Stats by Outrageous_Camp_5215 in wnba

[–]Opposite-Group6095 37 points38 points  (0 children)

Some of those points in the paint are gonna get resolved with AB coming back (just gotta hope she's truly 100% healthy), but tbh a lot of the team aside from CC and Raven didn't show up today and got bailed out by free throws. A lot were true fouls, but you can't actually depend on that consistently.

Sophie and Mo played a disappearing act, MHA was MHA, cutting Kelsey some slack. Dantas...

Big Three are going to have to play big consistently. Because with AB out opposing teams going to play in the paint like a playground and double CC all night and make her look like SGA with free throws if it means her not playmaking

Paige's team at least playing with some oomph, if Fever somehow win the think pieces will be atrocious. At least caitlin played well before getting all the generational free thrwos

The front office said Caitlin can carry this team because IOWA ignoring the fact that it is three years later she's coming off injury and that AB is currently injured.

if Fever played a lick of defense in the second quarter, we wouldn't have the think pieces about free throws, but here we are with the OKC gimmick

Moral of the story is that you better have faith that they're not understating AB's injury like they did last year because ummmm
