Sue Bird revealed 3 WNBA teams she wouldn’t want to see in the playoffs, including Caitlin Clark and the Indiana Fever

The WNBA playoffs are right around the corner, and Sue Bird says there are three teams she wouldn’t want to see during that stretch, including Caitlin Clark and the Indiana Fever.

Our weekly WNBA power rankings mentioned how Indiana is officially on sleeper watch and could potentially upset a top team come playoff time. It seems Bird sees what we’ve seen — the Fever have the potential to be dangerous.

During a recent episode on her podcast A Touch More with Megan Rapinoe, Sue named three teams she would think twice about once the WNBA playoffs arrived. Those teams included Kahleah Copper and the Phoenix Mercury, Gabby Williams and the Seattle Storm and Caitlin and the Fever. Here’s what she shared about Indy (See the 13:06 mark of the YouTube video below):

“What I’ve learned in my WNBA experience is pace of play trumps physicality. It trumps size. It can trump experience…what I see in Caitlin, what I see in Kelsey Mitchell — they’re just ramming it down people’s throats. And it’s really hard. It can have your head spinning…

“Kelsey Mitchell’s balling. Caitlin continuing to impress and just — she’s gonna break records nonstop for the next couple of years. It’s just gonna be a constant record break…”

“I think it was more just getting used to the hits and the physicality, and what refs are going to call and what they’re not gonna call. And you’ve seen her adjust in that way, too…she’s definitely getting used to it, which is, you know, trouble for everybody else —which is why I don’t want to see her.”
