Mercury finally defeat the Fever on USA Wednesday night basketball

They also played Monday evening and it seems they had to overcome the refs as well. I remember Fever fans were complaining refs weren't biased in favor of the Fever enough well they don't miss anything against the Mercury. Every questionable call went in the Fever's favor. I also understand Clark went out with a back injury late in the 3rd quarter so know there is a valid excuse to the Mercury winning the game.

Also not sure why Fever players and fans don't like Bonner. I know she wanted out to play with Alyssa Thomas in Phoenix but that is understandable.

I don't know if she did that purpose but she probably should have used the floor to get up. I don't see the league reviewing tape to see if they missed any fouls against the Mercury.

I should have known they wouldn't let Phoenix escape with a win unscathed. They are treated like other Arizona franchises even though they have titles.

I don't think I will watch Fever games as I feel there is an over-correction to protect Clark and it is making their games unwatchable. Also the biased announcers as well. I don't think she is as picked on as the national media makes it out to be. On Monday when Bonner was tangled up with Clark, Bonner walked away while Clark followed her. She also received a technical over that incident.
