hard oh Mitchell no look Boston extra pass Wallace knocks down a three the Atlanta Dream just learned a $16 million lesson that's how much their 16-point lead was worth before it slipped away now

to us so did you click the Subscribe button great thank you so much now back to the video do you believe it's bad to let up a 16-point lead await the news regarding the third quarter curse of the dream it seems as though they had forgotten how to shoot hoops for a full 12 minutes however why does this continue to occur imagine this the Atlanta Dream enters the third quarter with a sense of complete dominance with a comfortable 16-point Advantage everything appears to be working in their favor it feels like Victory Is Almost Here the energy is electrifying and the supporters are humming then though something changes a Missy shot here a turnover there is where it all begins not a huge thing is it false these little errors add up and before you know it the fever are making money off of each and every one of them that offensive line for the dream that was so fluid in the first half Suddenly It's stuttering like an Antiquated automobile engine this is when things get really crazy though blood can be detected in the Water by Caitlyn Clark and the fever they're using a sledgehammer on the lead not simply slowly cutting it away as teammates are being found left and right by Clark's accurate passes the dreams defense appears to be playing in quicksand what could be even more absurd this is not a strange incident the dreams difficulties throughout the third quarter have followed them the entire season it functions as a clock they establish a lead early on and then poof everything vanishes more quickly than free pizza in a dorm during college Mitchell drives inside the left hand will fall gets the roll and a foul for longest three ball fever get a quick stop Mitch the under hand pass the step through wace on the attack tough shot but there's Boston to clean up let's dissect it the offensive line of the dream falters the ones that had been dropping earlier they are now clanking off the rim as if the basket had a lid I won't even begin to discuss the turnovers it feels like the fever are getting free basketballs in exchange it goes beyond the crime though the defense of the dream also decides to take an early holiday they find it impossible to remain in front front of others it seems as though the lane is not there at all as Clark and her teammates speed past it sadly for the dream they are the awkward dancers stumbling over their own feet in this basketball ballet you may be thinking well it's true that they had a rough quarter it does occur correct here's the real deal though for the dream this third quarter battle is nothing new they have been plagued by this pattern the entire season so why are they unable to go past it is the problem with conditioning should they change up their halftime show or do they just think about it they're losing games whatever it is and this one against the fever may be the most agonizing one yet consider it it takes a lot of work to get a 16o Advantage you're confident that you've won this game and are feeling happy and then everything collapses in a matter of 12 minutes that is not only annoying but downright discouraging here's the crucial query though how can one resolve an issue such as this it's not as though the dream is unaware of its existence by now they had to be aware of this plague of the third quarter what the is the remedy more rigorous methods conditioning of the Mind a dance party at halftime to maintain the momentum consider Caitlyn Clark to be an ordinary rookie rethink your thoughts not even close she just schooled an entire team of Pros the hard way taught the Atlanta Dream that this firste phenomenon is anything but typical Clark performed a clinic she didn't just show up we're talking about 12 assists and 26 points that is the output of an experienced Allstar not a rookie the bizarre thing is that it went beyond the numbers that's how she obtained them and imagine this at the top of the key Clark has the ball they believe they have contain the dream and have set up her defense but then with a pass no one else even noticed she's threading the needle in the blink of an eye alternatively she's setting herself up for a three-pointer that leaves the defense perplexed she appears to be playing chess when everyone else is engaged in checkers however never entertained the notion that Clark was a one-woman show the fever struck with a well balanced offensive that turned the heads of the dream Boston Leo she scored more than 30 points and pulled down 13 rebounds not to be outdone Kelsey Mitchell added 21 points of her own the dream appears to be playing whacka mole one player would be eliminated and then two would appear Boston would take control inside while they concentrated on Clark Mitchell would make buckets of Threes while they tried to contain the paint it was an ideal storm for powerful assault weaponry what's Wild you know Tanisha Wright the coach of the dream anticipated it she wasn't subtle about it after the game she remarked they have a really good balance of inside outside attack you know so it poses problems in terms of who pick your poison in coaching parlins it means that we were in trouble no matter what we did let's examine what caused this fever attack to be so deadly Clark is the one who is in charge of everything to start she possesses the agility to make difficult passes appear simple the shooting touch to keep opponents honest and the vision to see plays before they happen then there is Boston who controls the paint collecting rebounds and scoring points whenever they want and just when you believe you understand those two Mitchell enters the scene with her sophisticated jumper it resembles trying to repair holes in a ship that is sinking the fever would devise a fresh offensive strategy and the dream would adapt accordingly Clark would start dropping dimes as they concentrated on getting the drive to stop they would attempt to remove the three-point line and Boston would enjoy themselves inside the thing that truly makes Clark stand out though is her basketball IQ she reads the defense anticipates their moves and counters instead of just making plays she seems to have a basketball cheat code she's calling her own number and draining a critical 3-1 moment then she's setting up a teammate for an easy bucket the next not to be overlooked as the mental game it's difficult enough to blow a 16-point lead but what about when a novice is taking apart your strategy that must be discouraging Clark and the fever always had a new inquiry even when the dream believed they had an answer Tanisha Wright took Center Stage after the game even if Caitlyn Clark may have taken the show her Frank and scathing assessment of the dreams performance I like this match up on Dangerfield draws the double got clock down to five wheeler pulls up and connects screen assist Clark wheeler lops it back they look Boston's direction again and Aaliyah Boston cashing in it's been a Boston beat down here in the first Allis corner back to Mitchell step back three you bet Kelsey Mitchell that could be the wakeup call that saves their entire season a coach would probably be speechless after blowing a 16-point lead but Tanisha Wright wasn't everyone's mouth dropped when she delivered some brutal realities with such Force Wright did not mince words she named that loss what it was a learning opportunity and met it squarely in the eye we have to use this as an opportunity to continue to learn and grow Wright added folks that's not just coach jargon that is a call to Arms Wright is not merely discussing adjusting a few plays or conducting more drills she refers to a total psychological makeover consider it that game was in the bag for the dream feeling fantastic they were cruising and perhaps even planning their postgame festivities and then whoosh everything collapsed not all collapses of such nature take place on the court it all begins in your mind right is aware of this she is isn't focusing on the turnovers or the missed shoots because of this she is considering the wider picture how can one recover from such a setback how can you ensure that it doesn't occur once more this is when the exciting part starts rright is not examining this game in a vacuum she perceives it as a component of a larger pattern the entire season the dream have had trouble finishing games it seems like they lose their basketball skills in the fourth quarter right though isn't giving up Parker married in the offseason Clark catch and shoot hits a three foul on Tina Charles inside working hard oh Mitchell no look Boston extra pass Wallace knocks down a three of turnovers on backto back possessions here is Parker tyus going at Smith not at all this loss is fueling her she is pushing her team to take initiative grow from their mistakes and become stronger not everything is about X's and O's it concerns mental fortitude what's Wild you know right strategy might be just what the dream requires considerate they possess Talent they've proven they can generate large leads all they have to do now is figure out how to hang on to them wri's remarks go beyond mere platitudes she is outlining a course of action for development it all comes down to finishing games and maintaining concentration under duress in essence she's saying yeah we made a mistake however we refuse to let it Define Who We Are The crucial point is this though is the dream genuinely capable of succeeding can they heed wri's advice and make things better talking about rebound pounding back is one thing to really put it into practice is a whole other story right's leadership is useful in this situation she's not merely pontificating she is acting appropriately she was already planning for after the game we can't have a hangover right from our disappointment of losing this she remarked that coach is keeping her players from sinking into self-pity picture yourself in the changing room following the match you just threw away a huge lead you're depressed possibly even ashamed your coach then enters the room to push you to improve rather than than to yell or point fingers that is some strong stuff the foundation of right strategy is resilience it's about absorbing a blow and Rising again that kind of mental toughness May mean the difference between making the playoffs and watching from home in the WNBA where every game matters
