FIRE COACH CHRISTIE SIDES! Failing Coach Limits Caitlin Clark’s Shots per Game — The Greatest Shooter of All Time — Then Sets Up Final Shot for Aliyah Boston, Who Misses Wildly and Blames Clark!

Sides has obviously never seen Caitlin Clark play basketball before she was drafted by the Fever.

And Sides likely has no idea who she has on her team—the greatest clutch shooter in women’s basketball history.

It is time that someone from the Fever front office notified Coach Sides that she has the greatest shooter in college basketball history playing on her squad!

Here are a few of the shooting records Caitlin Clark broke in the last year:

NCAA records

Most career points — Division I, men’s and women’s (3,951)

Most points in single season — Division I, women’s (1,234)

Most career 3-pointers — Division I, men’s and women’s (548)

Most 3-pointers in a single season — Division I, men’s and women’s (201)

NCAA Tournament records

Most career points — Division I, men’s or women’s (491)

Most career assists — Division I, men’s or women’s (152)

Most career 3-pointers — Division I, men’s or women’s (78)

Most points in single tournament — Division I, men’s or women’s (191)

Most 3-pointers in single tournament — Division I, men’s or women’s (32)

So, instead of running an offense that centers around Caitlin Clark, Coach Sides runs an offense centered around Aliyah Boston, who shoots less than 50% on shots she takes that are mostly around the rim.

Coach Sides has cut Caitlin Clark’s field goal attempts of 18-20 per game during her college years, to 12 shots per game in the pros.

Sunday afternoon, with seconds remaining in the game, Coach Christie Sides drew out a final play that involved getting Alijah Boston the ball at the free-throw line. Clark was told to pass to Boston.

Here’s how that went – Boston threw up a brick!

The reason Clark is playing for the Fever is because they were the worst team in the WNBA last year, so they got the first pick in the draft.

To use an NFL analogy, it’s like imagining Mahomes playing for the Carolina Panthers; not only wouldn’t he be anywhere near the stats he gets for the Chiefs, he would be coached as badly as Clark is with the Fever.

he COACH is JEALOUS of CAITLAN if team owner does not fire this woman his team will continue to lose hes in it for the money so what does he do? LEX

What does the owner care? It is probably the NBA’s money anyhow, they are fronting this train wreck of a league 15 million a year and own 50% of the WNBA.

Agree...after watching a few wNBA games the game seems to revolve around the following:
decent 3 point shooting
Pretty good passing most of the time
Easy “drive to the basket” layups( almost no lay ups in NBA)
Play around the basket is kinda sloppy..
Almost no tip-ins, almost never slam dunks..
Not much defense...
Lots of “carrying over”, and “steps”
Just looks like a “scrimmage”
Game needs:
Strong rebounds
Offensive put backs
Full court defensive pressure
More midrange 2 pointers
Pattern plays...backdoor passing
Slow down set up offenses...seems like “run and gun” now.
IMHO.

They have three all star players and a third rate coach that is way over her head.

There is nothing more vicious than an envious/jealous woman, especially if it involves another female. This coach has many problems, and most of them appear to be self-made.

Good analysis.

I think the point being here is that

THE WNBA NOT ONLY LACKS FROM A GENERAL HIGH STANDARD OF PLAY, IT PROBABLY LACKS EVEN MORE FROM A LACK OF GOOD COACHING.

There’s plenty of room for improvement, but at all levels, people are tuning in.

I am in particular impressed by this young man:

MAYBE he can coach the team.

There are more fans to the game than I ever realized, ie they appreciate the chess like moves.

So, I think the two of us are in agreement, that if you get a super coach, who is bringing home all the things you’ve listed, The Fever for one, will be a super team.

I haven’t either. Caitlin is a really good basketball player. Quite possibly the best all-around player I’ve ever seen, black or white man or woman.

Yeah, something tells me people want to pay their hard-earned money to watch this remarkable young woman play basketball.
