“New is always better” Barney Stinson from the popular series, ‘How I Met Your Mother’, did say that. But the latest Tissot Clocks rolled out in the WNBA have proved that it might not be true all the time. Just last week, the Indiana Fever’s on-road game against the Golden State Valkyries was marred by multiple clock stoppages.
Just two minutes into the game, chaos struck as a local power outage knocked out the shot clock. Play was halted for more than 20 minutes before officials finally rolled out makeshift baseline clocks to keep things going. There were five stoppages in play in the first half that ended up lasting 92 minutes.
The same blunder was repeated once again a week later in the Indiana Fever’s away game against the Washington Mystics at the CFG Bank Arena. This time, the game was halted after 6 minutes of play with the Fever leading 13-8. At least, it was an improvement over the Valkyries game, right?
Another Fever road game, another clock issue.
Game is delayed about six minutes in.
