Temi Fagbenle is the KEY To Indiana Beating the Sky...

so the Indiana Fever are playing the Chicago sky but when I'm recording this it's tomorrow night I don't know and when I'll get this up it could be tonight depending on where you are in the world it could be tomorrow night depending on where you are in the world but the key is right here it's Tammy before we get on to it if you guys are new to the channel subscribe we're only 41 subscribers off 29,000 subscribers we might have hit it by the time you guys have seen it but we might not have but the last time these two teams played they were very Indiana were very much missing Tammy F benley and in a way to be fair I will say they were missing dammer dantas because we have to look about how talk about how this game went so like the fever have played the Chicago Sky three times this year so the first time they played the sky was when the sky were the much better team at this stage um Caitlyn Clark had 11 eight and six but she just ran the show she absolutely just ran the show she got cheap shoted surprisingly enough like this was a good stat line for caon Clark back then an allar around good game Nelissa Smith had 17 Kelsey Mitchell at 18 Aaliyah Boston at this stage was really struggling like four or 14 she played good defense but she was really struggling at this stage heck Christy Wallace was a starter I think Christy Wallace was a starter even the last time they played next time they played was about a week later um it was a game where the sky where the fever were very comfortable it was only an eight-point win but like the fever were very comfortable in this game Caitlyn Clark had 23 n and8 it was probably her best game of her career up to this point and Angel ree on the other end had 11 and 13 I don't think Angel Reese had 10 points in the first time they played but like it was when Angel Reese satter in the head again I'll still say that was accidental then the last time they played the this was the game that seemed to mean the most because of how the Indiana Fever lost the Indiana Fever lost fourth quarter by nine they were winning by 15 points and then um insert Erica wheeler insert Erica wheeler Caitlin Clark gave the ball to Christy Wallace who had an a relatively open layup she tried to do some crazy Up and Under thing and nearly threw the ball over the backboard and then Aaliyah Boston bricked a long two off the side of the backboard for game um Caitlyn Clark 17 13 assists did not barely touch the ball in the fourth quarter like I think she had six points in the fourth quarter but they were she didn't shoot the ball after like I can't remember what minute she didn't shoot the ball but like this was back when Lexi Hull was getting 3 minutes and 54 seconds this was when dantas was not a member of the team this how long this is how long ago it was Celeste Taylor was on the team it was so long ago that Celeste Taylor was on the team um and immediately after this game they cut Celeste Taylor and brought in toir dantas I hate the fact they cuted Celeste Taylor I still I hate it more now than I hat it at the time but we know how that game went this was the angel ree takeover Angel Reese had 25 and 16 she dominated she dominated in this game especially down to stretch like they've done a really good job in fairness the um the fever have done a really good job of keeping Angel Reese off the offensive class but Angel ree is an offensive rebounder it's a different animal now and she was back then but they went at Nissa Smith Alissa Smith five fouls the better Defender was Katie L like Katy L Samuelson was the best defender in that game on Angel ree which is wild but Angel ree does not score at 15 points in a quarter on um on Tammy fley she just doesn't we saw Tammy fleet's defense she was plus 18 she is she's becoming the statas allstar the literal statas Allstar if you looked at her stats in the last game but what she offers is the opposite of Nelissa Smith Nelissa Smith's going to give you offense she's very rarely going to give you defense in Nelissa Smith's defense she is a good defensive rebounder in space but she is not as good a defensive rebounder she's only a good rebounder in space whereas Angel ree boxes out really well in the offensive end surprisingly not in the defensive end um but Angel ree will box it in the listate and get every time tamy fle is going to fight I Tammy F bleay is a winner she makes winning plays nonstop she is a Euro Cup champion this year she is a winner who is going to play as hard as Angel Ree and is going to make things hard for like you've got Tammy F benle now and not only that if tamy gets in foul trouble you've still got Nelissa Smith who got the better in the second game I think or was the first game she got the better one in the games of Aer Ree and In fairness Nelissa Smith has been getting the better AER Reese on the other end it's just NE do not please Nelissa do not to small iner Reese no matter what happens you could be up 30 do not to small iner Reese like it is it is beneath you it is beneath you to try taunt this team right now especially the way they're playing and the fact that Kennedy Carter might be a damn super spreader um but when it comes to you're seeing looking at points Kaylin Clark's at what she at 18 she's at 18 Kelsey Mitchell's gotten herself at 18.3 points per game Aaliyah Boston's close to averaging a double double and this Chicago Sky Team since the last time they've played has also lost Marina ma yes Michel on has been playing much better but they've lost Marina Ma and they're in a bit of free fall so I don't I think that Tammy fandle will nullify the impact of inuries I think if Tammy F if aiyah Boston can rebound well Tammy fleay is going to have 10 points of outrunning Angel Reese because Angel Reese does not run back fast on defense we've seen Aaliyah Edwards cook anderes not the last time they played Fair Den straty was good but like throughout um the season the first few times they played the cryptonite for Angel ree is she is horrendous at guarding Cutters and guarding Rim running bigs she is bad at it she is a bad interior Defender she lets people face cut on her and tamy fig benle is somebody who will cut into space and will run the floor if tamy can remember how to make layups because she might be like since the Olympic break she might be the worst at making layups and that includes inuries if tamy F benley can relearn how to make layups we are looking at a player who could have a complete dominant performance here and the best part about it is that for me personally I think the way the fever need to run is they need to um I don't like the dantas um and Boston minutes but the dantas Boston minutes are cool in this game because the sky do not play fast and Kennedy Carter going one on five sprinting by herself is not playing fast there's a difference between having fast players and playing a fast tempo like Kelsey Mitchell's always been fast she has has ran really fast but this the first time she's playing at a fast tempo in her career um but the sky play at a slow tempo so you can probably go double big minutes but what I would do is probably play at Le at 22 32 minutes i' play dantas 10 8 to 10 minutes a game um 8 to 10 minutes and I would split Nelissa Smith and Tami I would play them off each other whoever is having the better day I think their role realistically should be for the fever split 2020 it should be split 2020 if it's a Tammy game play Tammy 25 and play an Alysa 15 if it's an Alyssa game play an Alyssa 25 Play Tammy 15 like I think they should be almost like even in the pecking order obviously starting Lissa Smith because I think Tammy's cooler coming off the bench but that's really the way it should be done but the key to this game is going to be tamy F benley and I think the fever even without tamy F benley win just because of how well they're playing and how well they're clicking but this is going to be a playoff atmosphere game something's going to happen someone's going to get a hard hit um and I'm touchwood it's not cait and Clark something is going to happen in this game um and I'm hope what I'm hoping is that The Fever Blitz this team early because this Chicago Sky Team have been notoriously bad starter since the Olympic break I'm hoping the fever go up 20 and then instead of deciding we're going to control this game try to go up 40 because I have a weird feeling the Chicago sky are going to drag the fever down their level which is going to be an interesting I just think the fever have too much right now for them
