Transcript
- 0:05[SPEAKER_04]: Welcome, Fever fans to the Central Indiana Sports Report for a special edition of the Fever Report with John Robertson and Michelle Garmin, their reaction to the Fever's 109-91 win over the Liberty in the first of two preseason games.
- 0:22[SPEAKER_04]: Kelsey Mitchell had a big night, but the big news, of course, is Katelyn Clark 7 points in 17 minutes
- 0:32[SPEAKER_04]: First, I'm going to get John Robertson's opinion, then Michelle Garmin, Gore sports editor of the Tipton Tribune, and I would call later, there are opinions on John and Michelle things for me in here.
- 0:45[SPEAKER_02]: Happy to be here, Greg.
- 0:46[SPEAKER_02]: Me too.
- 0:48[SPEAKER_02]: First thing I want to say is I told you guys this earlier.
- 0:51[SPEAKER_02]: I forgot how much I love watching the fever play basketball.
- 0:54[SPEAKER_02]: like I just put on the preseason game.
- 0:55[SPEAKER_02]: I don't even know how to put it really into words.
- 0:59[SPEAKER_02]: Just to like, it's just still happy.
- 1:01[SPEAKER_02]: I was like, oh my gosh, I love watching them play.
- 1:03[SPEAKER_02]: It's where back to fever season.
- 1:04[SPEAKER_02]: And that's preseason even, but it feels good and exciting to watch them out on the court.
- 1:09[SPEAKER_02]: And that first order sure made it easy to enjoy it.
- 1:12[SPEAKER_02]: Oh, absolutely, it did, even with Lexi out and Alia Boston out, and we still, the starting five.
- 1:23[SPEAKER_02]: I think when we have our real starting five, but also just the starting will say seven or eight are really going to have offensive power.
- 1:32[SPEAKER_02]: The offensive speed and fire power they played with that first quarter was just, it's what you want to see.
- 1:37[SPEAKER_02]: It's what we've come to see as fever basketball.
- 1:39[SPEAKER_02]: and it was exciting and fun.
- 1:42[SPEAKER_02]: I think there's definitely work to be done on the defensive end, but I want to shout out both Monique Billings and Raven Johnson's defensive efforts looked really strong.
- 1:51[SPEAKER_02]: I was really happy with their defensive stuff.
- 1:55[SPEAKER_02]: Heinz Allen was a bad either on the defensive end, but they definitely look like they're right now they're playing up tempo fast offensive basketball still work to do on defense, but when you're scoring,
- 2:08[SPEAKER_02]: a hundred and what was a hundred and eight and a hundred nine it's going to be hard for a lot of teams to keep up with that.
- 2:16[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I was going to say John I was really thrilled with to see how Raven Johnson went in and played on both ends of the floor eight assistants zero turnovers and and I know it's a preseason game, but the Liberty still had and she still played against their some of their ones and to go eight assistants zero turnovers and your first W NBA game after really only a week practice they have such a short
- 2:40[SPEAKER_01]: I think I thought that was really impressive.
- 2:43[SPEAKER_01]: She didn't try to do too much, she didn't score a lot, but she didn't put up a lot since because that's not her game.
- 2:48[SPEAKER_01]: Her game is impact, she's an impact player on the defensive end of the floor, and she does not mind playing the point in distributing the ball to teammates.
- 2:56[SPEAKER_01]: And I just love how fast the fever play.
- 3:00[SPEAKER_01]: I really, I think they're gonna have to, I think they're top 10.
- 3:05[SPEAKER_01]: if it went if healthy instead if they are health when healthy and if they stay healthy I think they've got the deepest as far as 10 deep.
- 3:13[SPEAKER_01]: I think it's the best in the league.
- 3:16[SPEAKER_02]: We'll real quick before we move on from Raven Johnson.
- 3:18[SPEAKER_02]: She also had one steal in two blocks.
- 3:20[SPEAKER_02]: So that's good.
- 3:22[SPEAKER_02]: That's not monstrous numbers, but once steal in two blocks is good.
- 3:25[SPEAKER_04]: Imagine six points too.
- 3:26[SPEAKER_04]: I don't think we mentioned rescoring, did we?
- 3:29[SPEAKER_04]: Um, that's good eight points.
- 3:31[SPEAKER_04]: Yes, six points too.
- 3:33[SPEAKER_01]: What I liked was, you know, if I had said all alone, what I liked is people were worried about her size, but I said her wingspan is so good as far as defensive.
- 3:42[SPEAKER_01]: And I had to laugh because that's what somebody commented today went and afterwards, I don't know if it was on the broadcast or if it was a tweet from a sports person that a watch that they were talking about her wingspan and how much and I'm like, well, you guys must not really watch your play any in.
- 3:59[SPEAKER_01]: in college because she ought most of the time she was guarding players that were bigger than her and was doing very well at with it.
- 4:07[SPEAKER_02]: So anyway, I said you can't teach go-go gadget arms.
- 4:11[SPEAKER_02]: That's the quote.
- 4:12[SPEAKER_01]: Yes, yes.
- 4:15[SPEAKER_01]: She, you know, and it's really, it's really great.
- 4:18[SPEAKER_01]: Like I said, I, I think Timson looked pretty good today too, John, I kind of too.
- 4:23[SPEAKER_01]: I thought she was very impactful when she was in there in the middle.
- 4:26[SPEAKER_01]: And as I said, I think the first, the fever is first 10 and maybe 11.
- 4:31[SPEAKER_01]: And you know, that's not, I'm not even including Dante's in that.
- 4:35[SPEAKER_01]: I think she's going to have a tough time to crack that top 10 top 11.
- 4:39[SPEAKER_01]: And, you know, the great thing, I'm to make it top 10, I think there's top nine and I think hindsight makes it 10 because I think she's there and she's there for a purpose, but I don't think she'll get overplayed a lot, unless there's injuries or whatever, so that they have that experience, come play off time a little bit, you know, it's where it can be valuable and as you get older, sometimes it's kind of nice to, um,
- 5:06[SPEAKER_01]: monitor minutes, especially if you have a busy week or any back to backs.
- 5:11[SPEAKER_02]: I think one thing that's going to be a struggle for the fever all season was a little bit exposed in the fact that Zuhan had 20 points.
- 5:19[SPEAKER_02]: So you have somebody tall and big.
- 5:22[SPEAKER_02]: If we don't have really a Boston in there, we're going to struggle defending bigs.
- 5:27[SPEAKER_02]: I'm not saying it's something I'm overly concerned about, but it is something you don't have really a Boston.
- 5:31[SPEAKER_02]: You're going to struggle period probably.
- 5:33[SPEAKER_02]: Well
- 5:37[SPEAKER_01]: I worry about our ability to guard pigs we'll see what I mean that the neck could be a thing But I trust a little bit Stephanie white and staff take care of some of that because I think what you don't see today because You weren't going to play your starters necessarily a whole lot of minutes and we had no Lexi call I can see here combating that with having Lexi and Sophie on the floor at the same time and maybe after a little bit
- 6:05[SPEAKER_01]: pressing some half court traps to where they're trying to get feed the post 30 feet from the basket, you know, and that makes it more difficult.
- 6:13[SPEAKER_02]: I'm not concerned.
- 6:15[SPEAKER_02]: I'm not going to see here.
- 6:16[SPEAKER_02]: I'm not pulling the emergency warning or anything.
- 6:18[SPEAKER_02]: I'm just saying I think that that's one thing we're going to have to watch as the season progresses and they're going to have to stay on top of.
- 6:26[SPEAKER_02]: But everything else about the team I thought looked really great.
- 6:29[SPEAKER_02]: I was
- 6:31[SPEAKER_02]: uh... i do think there was a steep drop off from the starting squad to the second squad today yes yeah let's start in the second quarter of the well everyone on a massive run and took a lead at the but they look i think awful for a while i think that'll level out over the next over the preseason in the first few yeah i'm like i'm not going to be a boss then and lexie hall and suddenly two more people move down the chain and things are a lot better
- 7:01[SPEAKER_04]: for good reason, it was glaring for sure.
- 7:04[SPEAKER_02]: Well, a lot of those girls, they looked fine, but they're also, it's their first, some of them are playing for a spot.
- 7:11[SPEAKER_02]: So they've got extra nerves too.
- 7:13[SPEAKER_02]: You gotta really think about all the variables.
- 7:16[SPEAKER_04]: I like one up together a week.
- 7:18[SPEAKER_02]: Of course.
- 7:19[SPEAKER_02]: I am the last thing from a naysayer.
- 7:22[SPEAKER_02]: I am not one to panic early.
- 7:24[SPEAKER_02]: I'm just things to be aware of and look at and watch, but also far too early to panic about any of this stuff.
- 7:33[SPEAKER_04]: All right, guys, well, the, the big thing today was we got to see Caitlin Clark again, what's your assessment of what we saw in 17 minutes?
- 7:41[SPEAKER_02]: Fine.
- 7:42[SPEAKER_02]: I don't think it was a stellar outing for him, but I don't think it was a bad outing for her.
- 7:45[SPEAKER_02]: I think I think it was a above average WMBA guard outing.
- 7:50[SPEAKER_02]: So first thing you're looking for in the first game back, of course.
- 7:55[SPEAKER_04]: Is she healthy?
- 7:56[SPEAKER_04]: Not necessarily.
- 7:57[SPEAKER_04]: Really good outing.
- 7:58[SPEAKER_04]: Does she look strong?
- 7:59[SPEAKER_04]: Does she look healthy?
- 8:01[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
- 8:01[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
- 8:01[SPEAKER_02]: I think she looks fine.
- 8:03[SPEAKER_02]: I think she looked like she felt comfortable on the court.
- 8:07[SPEAKER_02]: Bye.
- 8:08[SPEAKER_02]: I'm not really worried at this point.
- 8:10[SPEAKER_02]: Sophie had a scary moment.
- 8:11[SPEAKER_02]: Did you see the Siri Sophie had to come out for a minute?
- 8:14[SPEAKER_05]: You got me at which?
- 8:15[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, there was an offensive vowel on I forgot who it was on, but... Stewie.
- 8:19[SPEAKER_02]: Oh, yeah.
- 8:20[SPEAKER_02]: My wife was like, me and Stewie are gonna have beef if she hurts Sophie and pre-seasoned.
- 8:24[SPEAKER_02]: I Stewie's.
- 8:26[SPEAKER_02]: She loves Sophie.
- 8:28[SPEAKER_02]: Got a wee.
- 8:30[SPEAKER_02]: I love the little roster, but it's kind of funny.
- 8:32[SPEAKER_04]: Each of us stayed in the Caitlin's defense last year.
- 8:34[SPEAKER_04]: I think the entire city fell in love with her.
- 8:36[SPEAKER_02]: I think it's one of those things that we all love the roster.
- 8:40[SPEAKER_02]: We really do care about everyone on the roster, but we all have our slight subtle rankings.
- 8:44[SPEAKER_02]: And just because my name Lexi's my top, but she's just barely above the next number two.
- 8:50[SPEAKER_02]: And so it's the sliver of preference.
- 8:53[SPEAKER_02]: And I don't hide it that Alia's my favorite.
- 8:56[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, that's a good one to have.
- 8:58[SPEAKER_02]: I love Boston.
- 8:59[SPEAKER_02]: I got a Boston hoodie that I wear around.
- 9:02[SPEAKER_02]: I got one of the player hoodies.
- 9:03[SPEAKER_02]: I try to have something from every player on the team.
- 9:08[SPEAKER_02]: She looks, let's, if you want, like, not today, she didn't play, but in practice videos and just the stuff I've seen of her, she looks very fit right now.
- 9:18[SPEAKER_02]: She looks like she is very in shape right now.
- 9:22[SPEAKER_04]: Not that she was ever not in shape, but she looks very like the best shape I've seen her in ever.
- 9:36[SPEAKER_01]: Like for missing pretty much all year and I know she got it was playing with fever and everything but that's still a little different than being in the WNBA because the teams they played in fever are or feed that fever tournament are not as loaded as with the WNBA is I thought she looked pretty good she did she shoot it well.
- 10:05[SPEAKER_01]: and she ran things.
- 10:06[SPEAKER_01]: And I thought she handled the ball very well.
- 10:09[SPEAKER_01]: Um, I was, I was pleased with her.
- 10:11[SPEAKER_01]: I even, I'm even going to give her kudos because I thought defensively she did a denim.
- 10:17[SPEAKER_01]: a pretty decent job.
- 10:18[SPEAKER_01]: And I think she, I can start to get burnt once, but and that's a hard work of the times.
- 10:23[SPEAKER_02]: There's a couple of times she was just like a traffic cone on the court on defense, but that's not what you expect her to really.
- 10:27[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, that's why I was getting ready to say her offlaw.
- 10:29[SPEAKER_01]: She is going to, she's always going to struggle if she has, if she's guarding the ball.
- 10:34[SPEAKER_01]: That's why really you know, one her match up against good point guards or good guard or guards are good and trading.
- 10:41[SPEAKER_01]: That's just not her cup of tea.
- 10:43[SPEAKER_01]: Her cup of tea is utilizing her
- 10:45[SPEAKER_01]: instincts and her basketball knowledge off-ball so she can jump passing lanes and everything.
- 10:53[SPEAKER_01]: So that's that's her strength on defense.
- 10:54[SPEAKER_01]: So that's why it's kind of nice.
- 10:57[SPEAKER_01]: That's why I would like to pick up of Raven Johnson because what Raven will do is in a tight game she could allow
- 11:05[SPEAKER_01]: Stephanie, the Steph White to be able to find the weakest person for Caitlyn to guard and put Raven Johnson on the ball if they needed in a tight game.
- 11:15[SPEAKER_01]: And that's one of the reasons I wanted Johnson or Hotcast because of their defensive prowess.
- 11:22[SPEAKER_02]: Well, and Kelsey looked fantastic today too.
- 11:25[SPEAKER_02]: Let's not forget Kelsey Mitchell was she was right back in the groove as she was in at the end of the season.
- 11:31[SPEAKER_02]: I feel like he is, for as amazingly as she plays, a lot of people forget to really give her her respect because she is so, so good on the scene.
- 11:40[SPEAKER_02]: There's just so many weapons, right?
- 11:41[SPEAKER_02]: If you're opposing team, who do you worry about the most?
- 11:44[SPEAKER_02]: Because if you put double on Caitlyn, Kelsey's gonna burn you.
- 11:48[SPEAKER_02]: Olivia's gonna get hers inside anyway.
- 11:51[SPEAKER_02]: Raven Johnson's doing great on defense.
- 11:53[SPEAKER_02]: Billings and Allen both looked pretty solid too.
- 11:56[SPEAKER_02]: Billings got nine points and Allen didn't have any points, but I really like the roster guys.
- 12:00[SPEAKER_02]: I'm going to be honest.
- 12:00[SPEAKER_02]: I like the roster.
- 12:01[SPEAKER_01]: No, like I said, I do too.
- 12:02[SPEAKER_01]: I thought tips and did a nice job on the boards and inside I thought you talked about somebody.
- 12:08[SPEAKER_01]: I think tips and looks a little bit more fit than last year.
- 12:12[SPEAKER_02]: I think she looked more confident than she did last year.
- 12:16[SPEAKER_02]: She always looked like she didn't feel like she belonged on the court.
- 12:19[SPEAKER_02]: Maybe it was imposter syndrome or whatever, but she just didn't look.
- 12:22[SPEAKER_02]: confident this year she looks confident she made her free throws.
- 12:27[SPEAKER_01]: I think when you go 10 deep the first 10 on this fever rush.
- 12:31[SPEAKER_01]: I don't think anybody in the league is 10 other anybody else in the league is 10 deep.
- 12:37[SPEAKER_01]: And I think that as long as they can stay healthy, that is to the fever's advantage and it's going to create a lot of opportunities for stuff and her staff.
- 12:45[SPEAKER_01]: to do things and come up with ways to be created and games that they're blowing people out to be able to come up with combinations and set some of those high profile stars because not everybody has that luxury.
- 13:06[SPEAKER_04]: Guys, I know it's just one pre-season game, but it's usually I'm gonna go ahead and check it out.
- 13:10[SPEAKER_00]: Don't say it, don't you're gonna change it.
- 13:13[SPEAKER_04]: I just tell her to do this.
- 13:15[SPEAKER_00]: You're telling me because you know what?
- 13:17[SPEAKER_00]: That's what the guy on the red last night was thought about.
- 13:19[SPEAKER_00]: Oh no, homeruns allowed by San Teele.
- 13:21[SPEAKER_00]: He's never let him in boom.
- 13:24[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
- 13:25[SPEAKER_03]: This team...
- 13:25[SPEAKER_00]: This cool shot, man.
- 13:27[SPEAKER_03]: If this team were gonna win this championship, they're, ah, there, no one's gonna beat this guy, team guys.
- 13:35[SPEAKER_02]: We'll see.
- 13:36[SPEAKER_02]: I think that there's a couple teams that are going to contend with them.
- 13:39[SPEAKER_02]: I think that they're going to have to work on the hard.
- 13:40[SPEAKER_02]: I don't think it's going to be walking the park.
- 13:42[SPEAKER_02]: I think they've got a shot.
- 13:43[SPEAKER_02]: I'm going to give them a decent shot.
- 13:45[SPEAKER_04]: I think they're healthy.
- 13:46[SPEAKER_04]: Is the key.
- 13:47[SPEAKER_02]: Well, yeah.
- 13:48[SPEAKER_02]: I think that's the biggest part of it, but I think they've got a decent shot.
- 13:52[SPEAKER_02]: But it's too early to be that bold.
- 13:57[SPEAKER_01]: right now.
- 13:58[SPEAKER_01]: I would say I give them a 60% chance to win the title.
- 14:02[SPEAKER_01]: I do think it's higher odds and 50.
- 14:05[SPEAKER_01]: I'll say 60 and we'll see if they stay healthy and there's a season goes and how it goes and I expect that number to climb a little bit.
- 14:14[SPEAKER_04]: Well, say, if there are no injuries, this is what I'm saying.
- 14:17[SPEAKER_04]: I'm not guaranteeing no one's going to get injured and things can change, but this team
- 14:26[SPEAKER_02]: I'm going to give him that best right now, like a 36% shot.
- 14:30[SPEAKER_02]: Whoa.
- 14:31[SPEAKER_02]: Okay.
- 14:31[SPEAKER_00]: Whoa.
- 14:31[SPEAKER_00]: That's really low.
- 14:32[SPEAKER_02]: To win the championship.
- 14:34[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
- 14:34[SPEAKER_02]: That's one and three.
- 14:36[SPEAKER_02]: I'm going to give him a one and three chance.
- 14:38[SPEAKER_02]: The one just today, I think.
- 14:39[SPEAKER_00]: It's one game.
- 14:40[SPEAKER_02]: I'm just saying it.
- 14:41[SPEAKER_02]: You got you as much as I want to believe that they're going to play great no injuries.
- 14:45[SPEAKER_02]: Like it.
- 14:45[SPEAKER_02]: any that's a long season one and it's given like 30 33 out of a how many teams are their 12 13 at this point so that's you know 33% still really good for a one and 13 if all things being equal you guys can't remember I'm a probabilities guys so 33% is actually pretty significant.
- 15:04[SPEAKER_02]: Okay I will give you that I'll give you that like I'm just saying if you don't think we're paying it's not.
- 15:10[SPEAKER_02]: No that's a realistic take like this
- 15:14[SPEAKER_02]: Let's look at what the odds are.
- 15:16[SPEAKER_02]: Let's see what the odds are on the sports book real quick.
- 15:18[SPEAKER_02]: Just because I'm curious.
- 15:21[SPEAKER_02]: But no, they're co-favorites with the Liberty last I looked.
- 15:24[SPEAKER_02]: I know they're in the top three.
- 15:28[SPEAKER_02]: Well, I'm feeling time on doing this.
- 15:30[SPEAKER_02]: Like if we took the math that every team being exactly even, it would be like what 10% like 9% chance.
- 15:39[SPEAKER_02]: So I'll go to the three X that.
- 15:42[SPEAKER_02]: Clearly, or it's not even, but all right, with WMBA finals championship, they're four plus four 70.
- 15:50[SPEAKER_02]: So four and at four, four point seven to one.
- 15:52[SPEAKER_02]: So I'm giving them better odds than that.
- 15:57[SPEAKER_04]: Yeah, but you're not guaranteed in it like I am.
- 16:01[SPEAKER_02]: Nah, liberties that two to one, and races are at four point four to one.
- 16:07[SPEAKER_02]: So, fever's third place right now.
- 16:11[SPEAKER_01]: Well, here's the thing, here's the thing.
- 16:13[SPEAKER_01]: I know, and I saw where the TV, the on-up.
- 16:17[SPEAKER_01]: They were talking about that on the, I am on production, and they had the ACEs and the liberty in the plain for the NBA Finals, and that could happen.
- 16:26[SPEAKER_01]: But the ACEs, I just don't think they had depth, and I think,
- 16:32[SPEAKER_01]: I don't think I watched the, I don't think I watched the, I don't think I watched, I don't think I watched the, I don't think I watched the, I don't think I watched the, I don't think I watched the, I don't think I watched the, I don't think I watched the, I don't think I watched the, I don't think I watched the, I don't think I watched the, I don't think I watched the, I don't think I watched the, I don't think I watched the, I don't think I watched the, I don't think I watched the, I don't think I watched the, I don't think I watched the, I don't think I watched the, I don't think I watched the, I don't think I watched the, I don't think I watched the, I don't think I watched the, I don't think I watched the, I don't think I watched the, I don't think I watched the, I don't think I watched the,
- 17:02[SPEAKER_04]: Would the dream qualify as a surprise?
- 17:06[SPEAKER_02]: No, I don't think so they've made the fight on the show last year.
- 17:09[SPEAKER_02]: Well, yeah, I think the dream improved, I think the Angel Reese thing can go either way.
- 17:16[SPEAKER_02]: I don't know.
- 17:17[SPEAKER_01]: Well, why I think that with the dream is because that's where Ryan Howard plays, right, correct?
- 17:22[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, the dream has a good lineup.
- 17:25[SPEAKER_01]: She's a bona fide, one of the top
- 17:28[SPEAKER_01]: they would say one of the top 20 players in the NBA maybe top 15.
- 17:33[SPEAKER_01]: And they have her.
- 17:34[SPEAKER_01]: So I don't think that they would be a surprising like you said because they didn't make the playoffs before.
- 17:39[SPEAKER_02]: I think you were moved angel from that roster and they still have a good roster.
- 17:42[SPEAKER_02]: So she's a wild card, right?
- 17:44[SPEAKER_02]: Either she plays really well and makes the team better.
- 17:46[SPEAKER_02]: Or she's
- 17:49[SPEAKER_02]: a cancer in the locker room and run and causes stuff to fall apart.
- 17:52[SPEAKER_02]: It could go either way.
- 17:53[SPEAKER_02]: I don't know which one it's going to be, but the roster without her is still decent.
- 17:58[SPEAKER_02]: So.
- 17:59[SPEAKER_02]: Too soon for anyone.
- 18:00[SPEAKER_02]: It's good.
- 18:02[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I don't think Dallas will be okay, but I don't think they'll be, how many goes the playoff?
- 18:08[SPEAKER_02]: A, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7.
- 18:10[SPEAKER_02]: Dallas, I think they'll be on the border of the playoffs.
- 18:16[SPEAKER_02]: They'll either just squeak in or just miss it.
- 18:20[SPEAKER_01]: that they have quite enough pieces yet.
- 18:23[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I think Valkyrie's got a shot.
- 18:25[SPEAKER_02]: I think the Valkyrie's have a chance to sneak in to the hate spot.
- 18:30[SPEAKER_02]: I think the sky, believe it or not, that's my surprise team that's gonna do better than people think.
- 18:34[SPEAKER_02]: I think the sky is retooling.
- 18:37[SPEAKER_02]: I think they're gonna be on the border as we close the end of the season, they're gonna be a couple of games out.
- 18:43[SPEAKER_02]: And this is a pure guess.
- 18:45[SPEAKER_04]: But I think they're expecting them to win eight games and I think they're probably win 15.
- 18:51[SPEAKER_01]: But yeah, they're going to win more, I think the win more today, I think for one, I think it's going to be a yeah, this is going to be a better environment in Chicago this year.
- 19:00[SPEAKER_02]: on a has been the mystics are the second worst.
- 19:05[SPEAKER_05]: Oh, they're good.
- 19:06[SPEAKER_02]: Oh, the other the the mistakes are not the second.
- 19:08[SPEAKER_02]: We're so sorry.
- 19:09[SPEAKER_02]: I forgot the Portland fires on this list and the so mistakes are pretty low.
- 19:14[SPEAKER_02]: I think they they got a chance to surprise people.
- 19:16[SPEAKER_02]: They're not ranked very high on the on the sports books, but I think Kiki and Sonya and that group could really put together something and kind of be.
- 19:26[SPEAKER_02]: a surprise.
- 19:27[SPEAKER_02]: So I really do think it's going to be an interesting season.
- 19:30[SPEAKER_02]: I think the Connecticut sun are going to be terrible.
- 19:32[SPEAKER_02]: I pour in fire.
- 19:33[SPEAKER_02]: I'm going to be terrible.
- 19:34[SPEAKER_02]: I think the tempo is going to be pretty terrible.
- 19:36[SPEAKER_02]: But the tempo have a good coach so that that gives them a little bit of a benefit on some of these other people.
- 19:43[SPEAKER_04]: They should definitely be the better of the two for sure.
- 19:45[SPEAKER_02]: Sandy Brondello and I think that they should be pretty okay.
- 19:50[SPEAKER_02]: I don't know, I'm excited for the season.
- 19:52[SPEAKER_02]: I'm gonna cap off my last thoughts all I was gonna go back to the same thing I said at the beginning.
