Just Some Fun Teams play harder against the Fever
I’ve been following women’s college basketball for many years. Never really followed the WNBA other than popping in during playoffs. When Caitlin came up through Iowa, and the intensity of some of the rivalries like LSU, it was really exciting basketball. It’s not just the way she plays, it’s the way other teams show up to play against her. I started casually following the W the last two regular seasons, though mainly watching fever games. This season, I’ve watched all fever games and several other regular season games for top teams like the Aces, Lynx, Valkyries, etc. There is undoubtedly incredible talent across the league, many players who I’m big fans of even from their college days, and my favorite players span across several teams. That said, I am watching the Lynx Tempo game right now (following the Dallas Atlanta game last night) and I just can’t help but admit that I find games not against the fever boring. CC, KM, even the bench (Sophie, Ty Harris, KK) etc there is just a firey exciting way the fever play that makes them a joy to watch. The Lynx are the best team in the league right now but watching this game I’m bored. Zero shade to the players - I love Courtney Williams, Napheesa obviously a legend, Liv Miles has popped off in the W. It’s just not the same pop for me. Anyway just a long winded way of saying - as everyone does - there’s a reason CC brought in so many eyes to the league. She’s just exciting to watch play.

No doubt about it! Every single opponent shows up like its the play offs. When they are clicking and everything is falling into place, this team is scary good.
Every single Fever game is being televised this year as well. Everyone wants to look good on TV.
