4/5 🧵 The backlash is about flow. The Liberty-Mystics game became the poster child: 58 fouls and a runtime of 2 hours, 41 minutes. Breanna Stewart called that “insane,” saying too many unnecessary fouls were being called on both sides. Jonquel Jones, who fouled out, wanted more consistency. That’s the real pressure point: players can live with stricter officiating faster than they can live with inconsistent officiating.
