Fever +8 Was A Gut Wrencher Of All Gut Wrenchers Last Night

Good God! The Fever deserve all the credit in the world for fighting the way they did to this point in the season after losing Caitlin Clark for big portions of the season as well as the Playoffs. Additionally, Sophie Cunningham being hurt, and in the game Kelsey Mitchell goes down, Aliyah Boston fouls out. Just brutal brutal luck. 

Yet they still take The Aces to 5 games and in the 5th game into Overtime. Just true warriors. Deserve a ton of credit. 

However, no matter how close you get you still don’t get credit if the spread doesn’t come through in the end or get brownie points for overcoming obstacles, nor can you use those excuses to claim why you didn’t cover. The final score is the final verdict and in this game … Fever bettors got their hearts ripped out. Brutal. Shake it off and come back tomorrow folks… the gambling Gods sure owe you one. 

Need an update as to where this fits in on Dave’s rules of having to go to work if you had Fever +8.5 after having Rams , Bucs, Jets or Eagles a few weeks back.
