Kelsey saying “I felt like a Hawkeye” is my favorite interview comment so far this season. 😆🖤💛
When Kelsey said I felt like a Hawkeye that just made me smile and I agree with one of the best quotes ever and C squared I mean that’s gonna stick because it is so perfect in so many ways!!!
She's hilarious with her snark about all the attention. Girl can score too.....
Me too lol 😂😂😂
Black & GOLD 🏀🗑️🗯️🎼🎶🎵Iowa !
Kelsey Eyes buck & Hawk ! 👁️ 👁️
It's so nice to see Katie Lou, Kristi, and Kelsey interviewed. I'd like to see and hear from more of the team. Go Fever!!
It's aTeam effort you got that right!!!!
C squared perfect nick name. Kelsey is a total bucket. She seals the deal.
@@tzu2146 I’ll stick to CC 😂 but yeah mitchell is a bucket, the backcourt is gelling
@@breezybreeze12 oh they are liking each and that is important, that AB for starting the friendships you rock too.
You know what is the scary part for the rest of the League CC hasn't even played her best game yet 🤯
Reese has though and Reese will have even more better games. Cope
@@Jricks1992that didn’t even make sense 😂 why is a Sky fan trolling the Indiana Fever channel?
@@Jricks1992 Reese is shooting 44% on her layups ....... and has had her pathetic shot blocked 40x already

@Jricks1992 you dont believe that yourself, but you're trying. I admire that
Ok, Holy crap! Why did I just enjoy that almost as much as watching a Fever game? CC had her usual gr8 interview, but I have to say Katie, Kristy and Kelsey was fantastic! Especially Kelsey, as she was so supportive, and her interview skills are getting better all the time. Way to go girl! See y'all tomorrow!
She didn't have a lot of oppurtunity to polish her interview skills before becaue the media and people ignored the wnba. Now that the spotlight is on the wnba due to the caitlin effect, they now have a lot of media wanting to talk to them.
You can tell Kelsey has finally bought in to what CC can do. Not on the hero ball stuff anymore. This is finally a TEAM! Love to see it.
great comment
Hum...trying...not there yet. I saw her try behind the back pass like CC and turned it over in the liberty game. She's surely trying to emulate Chennedy though. I agree they're gelling.
she will be gone next season
I can only imagine how difficult it was for K. Mitchell to let go of that hero ball mentality after working so hard for the past 2 yrs. But I have been saying this for the first 10 games. I sensed resentment during post interviews. But the hero ball ended after C. Sides benched her for doing that. Now, I see a brighter attitude during these interviews. C² is not trying to take anything from her. She just trying to get the W.
Yes! She’s slowly getting there, for sure. And the more she buys in, the tighter they get as a team and the better their chemistry gets.
Kelsey Mitchell with a great head on her shoulders. She’s a baller, playing great team ball , and is always ready to hit those big shots that matter. So impressive how clutch she can be.
Oh, she’s definitely a Baller. Kelsey gets hot and it’s over and don’t let her want to drive to the hole. She’s going to get there quickly.
Just need to keep her head up because sometimes she heads in when there are other options but she in not looking.
@@IThinkICare BINGO!!
@@IThinkICare She reminds me, in terms of mindset only, of watching my kids BB teams playing...mostly iso-time when they find themselves with the ball in their hands, & they'll do their best to get some sort of shot up. Really the opposite of how CC approaches the game fundamentally. But ya, teams do need that iso option, & she is not skered, she'll shoot it with confidence in big moments, which is important....I'd argue only take those shots if you've just been set up by CC, as it's very likely to be the correct BB play.
@@scottsherman5262 Yes, but she succeeds in taking to the basket , maybe a foul but sometimes she takes it into a crowd. 3-4 which will not succeed and also means someone is free. Quick mind/action change is not easy I'm sure.
Congrats on going to the Olympics Wallace. Play your best!
It was great to see her face shinning so bright! She was beside herself with joy! Happy for her!
so happy for her!
Shout out to the press guy who talked to Mitchell about her clutch shooting, and didn’t just ask her about Caitlin. Seriously. Press should be asking her about her clutch 3’s, her steal, and her awesome dime she had in that game. Mitchell was on fire and deserves some love.
I love Mitchell’s response about CC’s 3 doubles, she’s not star struck. This a team win or loss. Mitchell is a clutch player, love her too❤❤❤…I love CC too😊
In the two wins, it is super important to point out that it was Kelsey Mitchell who was able to make the shot that tied or took the lead in each game, and both shots were assisted jump shots. So, when she talks about being available for the ball and entering that zone in her mental preparation it isn't just blowing smoke, that is her game. "The key to teamwork is to learn a role, accept a role, and strive to become excellent playing it." ~ Pat Riley ~ This is Kelsey Mitchell in a nutshell. Her role is to be a clutch scorer and an energy player. C^2 will catch on, and I hope that Mitchell gets some hype for that. With all of these variable parts that surround them, what is the absolute value of AB + C^2?
Agree with your comment. This team is best when the balance of stardom is all around. Boston, Mitchell, Smith, Samuelson, all great players. I think CC at point is getting better and better at bringing out the best in each. If they can mature together and trust each other they could be a top tier team in the league before too long. CC is the reason I'm here-it's been a joy to discover the complete team (including other clutch players not yet mentioned).
The Splash Sisters?
I think if Kelsey would just trust CC she would see her and the rest of the teams stats would improve.
@@richardmuniz7886 Trust doesn't come easily for everybody, and it's clearly been a struggle for Kelsey. It's beautiful to watch it be a burgeoning thing in her. She is needed so much because of her skill, and it's such a win-win for her and the team for her to embrace and be embraced.
Kelsey is so cool she just puts everything in perspective..
Kelsey rocked her interview. "C-squared😂😂😂😂😂
I have fallen in love with Kelsey Mitchell. Great interview. She's TOTALLY COOL. thank you, Kelsey,
Kelsey Mitchell and CC are my two favorites to watch on this team. I can't believe how fast Kelsey is too. This whole team is fun to watch when they are playing fast!!
Fever are rising!!!! Love seeing yall grow- keep it up! 😊
Reese
@@Jricks1992 Chinese bot.
If the Fever's chemistry becomes smooth and they feel they are a family, then they will become a team to reckon with next season!
@@Jricks1992sucks. Shoots from the hip like a middle schooler
The chemistry between these players is really showing in these interviews. So great to see this - basketball is a team sport and it takes a close knit team playing their roles to perfection to get special wins. Really liked this broader view of the team during these interviews.
Caitlin, Christie, Katie, Kristy, Kelsey ... cool!
What great perspectives from Kelsey. God bless you all!
Kristy Wallace is a sweetheart! They all are!
C-Square 😂😂 I love it. Love Mitchell. Can definitely tell this team is growing together. They’re building each other up 022🏀☄️
CC is a smart hooper, humility runs in her blood. You noticed how she answered the MEDIA, so spontaneously and continuously, a lot of knowledge and sense, a footprint of wisdom and intelligence. GO GO GO CC
i need a lexie hull interview, i love her energy
I laughed out loud when CC said nope, nobody reached out to her on text…. 😂😂😂😂 I bet. You ask a dumb question….
Fever keep RUNNING.!!!!!!!
75 never watch basket ball CC got me hooked
That is great. Have fun!
Reese
@@Jricks1992 Reese's Pieces? That candy belongs in the Trash. But, just tell everyone Clark lives rent free in your head, since your always on TH-cam making comments on videos about Clark and Fever. Its almost like you know Reese is Trash and you're trying to sway people to like her......Just go find youtube videos about Reese and Fan girl over her there.
Excellent!
I hope Kelsey retires with the Fever. They should never trade her. She’s one of the most intelligent players in the league. She’s gonna make a great coach some day.
She hits shots. 💰🔥
She stayed through all those lean years, one of the few bright spots year after year. So glad to see her getting to enjoy and be a part of the team as the Fever get closer to being back to where they belong - a franchise that once had the longest active playoffs streak.
Great questions today! I LOVED how relaxed and open Kelsey Mitchell was! I feel like I got to know her a bit today. It was also fun to see CC and Samuelson playing around. Loving the energy! Go Fever! CC is why I showed up but I’m starting to really be a fan of AB, Mitchell, Samuelson, Hull and Fagbenle!
First time in a while I've heard a bunch of jocks talk that kept it enjoyable and interesting. Bravo ladies!
Love that Mitchell C2. Get the win. Go Indiana Fever🏀🏀🏀
Excellent questions from this group of reporters!
Kelsey is so charming. Her genuine appreciation for that reporter complementing her big shots almost made me teary eyed. And that, "I felt like a Hawkeye, man!" Shes interview gold
I can't wait to see Kelsey, Aaliyah, and Caitlin do their thing together at All Star to really show off the growing chemistry they got together.
I love this team, Kelsey hit some big buckets when we need them.I no one thing they all are playing better.GO FEVER 😱👍😀😀😀
Keep building the team work 🎉🎉❤
Love love love that the team is all talking about moving faster... at first Coach Sides was saying they just need to slow down and everyone that has watched Caitlin play for 4 years were frustrated... Coach has realized they are a YOUNG team let them run the fight out of the older women in the other teams!
All of those ladies handle the media very well ❤️
FEVER is building into a team to be reckoned with. They are becoming a more cohesive team the more they play as time goes on.
They need to get some bigs who can contend with a team like the Aces.
Chicago sky
2 of the worst team in the wnba. maybe go troll on the aces page
@@2024-o1u Jricks is obsessed with CC, it's creepy as hell.

Great to hear from some of the other players - Katie and Kristy Wallace - sweet personalities.
I love them all so much!!!!
What a great bunch of team oriented players. So much different than what we see in Angel Reese and her ME ME ME mentality
Congratulations to Wallace!! 🎉
Y’all gotta venture outside the Indiana fever home page and stop listening to low budget podcasters because they lie to y’all for views to get money…Reese better…eastern conference player of week! Not rookie of week but player of week!
Russian bot alert
League history': 4,100 double doubles. 35 triple doubles. I think you need to take your own advice.
@@jto-eg7qwstop actin like u so impressed off of rebounds
@@jto-eg7qw Congrats you are idiot of the week! WELL DONE!!!
I LOVE how she calls CC C^2 (C Squared or C times C) cause she is that GREAT!
I forget to add that C is the Symbol for the SPEED OF LIGHT! Einsten's equation is Energy= Mass times C Squared
th-cam.com/video/dftoL3II0-w/w-d-xo.html
I'm thankful for that final question 3:38 to CC (even though it looked like she was excited for the questions to end), that drew out 3:52 kind words for her teammate AB, especially 4:22 "I'm really thankful for her" - and I believe her. Gratitude. Wow!
I can't say I've watched alot of the WNBA (or really any of the WNBA before CC), so I don't know if this is pretty typical, or not so much.
C² is 🔥
Great coverage today!!
cc2 ❤ what a class act !!!
goooo Caitlin
Starting to see that swagger. Kelsey my wife remembers you from stats class. Such a class act all around. Clutch squared!
The New Showtime Transition Fever can beat anyone.
The Old half court Fever can lose to everyone.
CC is the system.
I love Caitlin's work and her connection with each of the members on the team. The one two punch of Caitlin and each of the other four.
Katie Lou is such a class act along with CC and Kelsey! It is a blessing to follow a team that does not have "villains" as the MSM normally trumpets!
Loving Kelsey’s buy in with this team and the Hawkeye offensive style. We need it from her!! She’s a bucket
1997 I watched two LA Sparks game on tv and that was it. The CC effect is real👍🏼. Watched 12 Fever games so far. Love how this team is jelling and seeing them having more fun. Go Fever!!
CC you’re the BEST!!!!
3 AllStars and an Olympian. Lets go! 🔥
Clark is coaching that team
I agree with that that's a scary part😅
Finally she puts Lexi in. She needs more time.
Much rather see Lexie. Katie Lou is too inconsistent. Lexie needs to get stronger though.
Katie Lou reminds me so much of Sidney Afolter it's uncanny!
I'm happy for every noon game.
Greetings from Europe
I love watching these women... they are bonding and growing weekly... Caitlin is bringing these women along with her making WNBA History.
adding Aliyah, NaLyssa and Lexi would have made the ultimate star struck interview
love Kristy's accent. ❤22❤ go fever 🏀
I love Wallace’s accent.
15:57 Kelsey ❤❤❤❤❤
love to see that Channel 13 come in there (late)...I'll be watching on Channel 13 tomorrow!!!!!!!!
Love this TEAM!
Kristy is so sweet. Congrats Kristy on being in the Olympics!
Fever can Win it all if they really want it
Keep up the goodwork fever
Congrat to achridty being a member of the Opals the Autralian
olympic team
I always fast skip when coach speaks. Good luck tomorrow, ladies!!
Indiana got a dose of "Vitamin C" for their Fever and i think their feelin better.
Clark is the Fever’s QB. She sees the floor, and like Kelsey said, she is going to be ready. C^2 reminds me of Tom Brady. If you played with him you always had to be ready because if you were open the ball was coming. A lot of players got some big paydays because of him. Unfortunately they did not fare as well after they left.
Her playmaking and up tempo style reminds me of Magic Johnson more than anyone.
W Kelsey saying she wants to achieve prime Hawkeyes attack power and agreeing with CC that it is literally the least surprising thing ever that CC got a triple double
Yes about the triple double. I thought that was its own form of compliment, Kelsey's own from of graciousness.
Caitlin is a master of tact.
Love Katie L. another sweet person like AB. Let's keep winning with Caitlin making history after another. Mitchell, you got this with the rest - Smith, Hull & more...
Let's get dialed in and take care of the Mystics...so that we can turn our attention to the Mercury. Dominating the Mercury, when we know they will show up ready to rumble, will be a huge step for this team. Go Fever!
I love watching the speed and skill of Kelsey
Love Aliyah and Clark ball out tomorrow
"We love Indiana players. They are sweet and fearless. Can't wait to see their next game!"
That off season going be nice to get that practice time together put at least 10lbs on CC they will be go to go next season
Mitchell is MONEY!!
I think everybody's really warming up and buying into #CC22 now esp. since 9 of the Fever players were in the top 36 shortlist of the All-Star voting, and they saw how their fan votes skyrocketed exponentially this year.😊 #GoFever!!!🎉
I agree. I think the team is finally buying into cc being the general.
Here is a crazy idea for Christie Sides, how about at practices y'all blitz Caitlin Clark at full court and the rest of the team figures out a way to set solid screens, get open and get out of Caitlin Clark's way.
Caitlin Clark Setting Records and Making WNBA History on Her Way to A Championship with The Indiana Fever.
Keep Erica Wheeler and Kristy Wallace on the bench, put in lexie Hull in, cc needs runners she use to a fast pace
CC is MJ in female clothing.
Coach Sides brought Christy Wallace from Australia? Wow, and let Celeste Taylor go? Pure ignorance of what good and bad are.
GM ultimately makes those decisions, not the HC. Also, Wallace has a guaranteed contact and Taylor did not. That's the economic reality that handcuffs a lot of front offices when it comes to retaining the young talent.
This woman is stressed out! I truly feel bad for her hopefully she can get some well earned rest at some point this year.
Kristy Wallace is my favorite player 🤩
Keeping the core of this team together next year and maybe add a couple of Gazelles that can run up and down the court and score quickly is going to be something to watch next year. I'm going out on a limb and say that the Fever will be the highest scoring team next year by far.

Go Fever 😊 🏀
Expectations. Exactly, everyone needs to chill out. This is a young team, with a young, fast moving point guard, the spacing is everything right now, knowing where her playmakers are going to be. Everyone wants to compare Caitlin to Angel, it needs to stop. They play a different game and are on very different teams. Chicago’s team isn’t Indiana’s team, Angel isn’t a distributor she’s not going to have the turnover rate, just like Caitlin isn’t focused on defense. The game is different for both. Comparing their stats just isn’t conducive to seeing who’s better. It needs to quit.
Katie Lou starting is a good move! Like it! Gives more size! She gets layups! 😃
Reese
She needs to hit more of her open 3s

Troll alert. By the Way Angel won't DM you back so maybe move on
These girls play exciting basketball even if not always the best basketball. Wins are definitely better than losses but somebody wins in every game, all games aren’t exciting to watch but Caitlin’s are allows exciting.
