In this heated episode of Fast Break Bets presented by Betting Pros, host Terrell Furman Jr. vents his frustration over some razor-thin losses from Game 3 before diving into Game 4 of the WNBA Finals between the Las Vegas Aces and Phoenix Mercury. Furman recaps how Becky Hammon’s late-game coaching mastery and A’ja Wilson’s dominance continue to define the series, while the Mercury’s resilience and Kahleah Copper’s leadership keep them fighting. He also touches on Chelsea Gray’s playmaking, the injury impact of Satou Sabally, and why experience matters most at this stage.

Speaker 1 (00:15):
Yes, sir, or come back to another episode of Fast
Break Bets?

Speaker 2 (00:19):
Is anybody betting? Girls? You know me?

Speaker 1 (00:20):
Don't voice some guy me really really rock as well?
From Junior here at your service. You could tell when
I'm pissed, you could tell what I'm man. Would I
be just ready to speed through the intro and just
get through it? Bro Ivy getting like that's how you

(00:44):
Ivy getting so.

Speaker 3 (00:46):
Mad, so mad because things will be like right there right, Oh,
it's so annoying.

Speaker 1 (00:58):
It's so annoying. I hate losing. I hate losing. I
hate losing. I hate losing. I hate losing. I hate losing.

Speaker 2 (01:06):
It's very very annoying.

Speaker 1 (01:07):
This is like, so there was a time where I
didn't get mad at anything, Like nothing could get me mad.
I think my mom thought it was actually like kind
of concerning, like how nonchal I was with things at times.
Nothing could get me mad. There were only a couple
of things that could get me upset. First thing I

(01:29):
real live, we get upset at call of duty. That
was I think that was like the first thing that
got me mad. I would actually be upset because Call
of Duty used to cheat. I don't play video games anymore,
but when I was playing, like you know, high school,
I swear they was cheating sorret they was swore there
was I would legit get mad at call of duty.

Speaker 2 (01:48):
I would. And now I get mad.

Speaker 4 (01:51):
Wa or when my beds don't go by way and
I lose by the hook and I get really really
frustrated because how did at miss that free throw?

Speaker 1 (02:02):
I knew when she missed the free throw. She had
two free throws close to the end of the game.
I knew when she missed one and she got stuck
at fourteen I was like, now watch her just ride
this out at fourteen two, and then we get all
the way to the end of the game. She and
she gets the look she wants. She's got Megan in space,
and she's driving towards the basket and she just doesn't

(02:24):
finish and she ends up with fourteen. It's crazy, crazy,
And then I called mc connie. I knew she was
gonna miss in the beginning of the game. I knew
I was gonna miss the call mccannie in the beginning
of the game because she had a few mid range
pull up jumpers that I mean they touched every inch

(02:48):
of the cylinder and rimmed out and then she comes
back later in the game drains two threes.

Speaker 2 (02:53):
She's got six points. Hooked on that on six again.

Speaker 1 (02:57):
I suld have took the threes. I was concerned because
the two threes was like h and that was the
handicap that they were gonna hit the threes and they
were gonna find a way of getting this game, and
that was partially similar.

Speaker 2 (03:12):
Right, I should have played the threes.

Speaker 1 (03:14):
Ah, so annoying. However, I did hit Asian Wilson over
ten and a half rebounds. That was nice, Melissa Smith
over four and a half rebounds. That was in sweat.
Sammy Wickhambs sucked and the Phoenix Mercury didn't show up
in the first half and they used all that energy
they could have used in the first half to pull
themselves out of a seventeen point deficit in the fourth quarter.

(03:38):
I'm not mad at the Sammy wickcombing Phoenix because I
was just dead wrong. And when I'm dead wrong, I'm
cool being dead wrong. But like the hook, losing by
the hook.

Speaker 2 (03:47):
So frustrating, so frustrating.

Speaker 1 (03:51):
Also, I have to tell folks that this sound drop
also has a double meaning. But go ahead, pack him up,
pack him up, Pack him up, pack him up, got

(04:11):
my broom, pack him up. Nope, I'm out of it.
I'm out of the Phoenix Berkery, sweet Steaks.

Speaker 2 (04:19):
What are they supposed to do? What are you supposed
to do?

Speaker 1 (04:24):
They had a seventeen point comeback in the fourth quarter
and didn't finish the game and lost. How do you
bounce back from that? And then Satu goes down with
a concussion after getting you know, accidental contact to the
back of the head. She's more than likely not playing
in the next game. Like still out coached by Nativvits

(04:50):
Natibbots just wants to hold his timeouts for whatever reason.
Because on that last on that last possession, I really
thought he should have got a timeout, but he did
get the ball, and they did get the ball in
eight's hand. At had a matchup against Gustumsen, and At
had a good look at the basket, So like, am
I really mad? I would have liked to see a

(05:11):
time out there, and I would have liked to see
him draw something up.

Speaker 2 (05:14):
For Khalia Copper.

Speaker 1 (05:16):
We've listened in the timeouts for him in the past,
and he's always he's felt really really good about giving Khalia.

Speaker 2 (05:23):
Copper the ball in the final moments of the game.

Speaker 1 (05:25):
I'm just shocked he didn't do that, But they got
a good look at it, so I can't be mad.
Like they still got a really good look at the
basket of at. She just didn't finish. But Becky Hammon
Becky Hammond to respond to respond with taking what was
it they had like seventeen seconds on the clock, I
think it was, And then Becky Hammond took it all

(05:46):
the way down to five and Jackie Young.

Speaker 2 (05:50):
Had the ball.

Speaker 1 (05:51):
At was coming over for help on Jackie Young and
it could have resulted in a turnover or a misshot
And with five seconds left on the clock, Becky Hammond
calls time out five seconds five seconds.

Speaker 2 (06:02):
Left in the game.

Speaker 1 (06:04):
Beckham had cost him out, says no, wait, let's regroup.

Speaker 2 (06:08):
Comes out of the time out. Immediately the ball goes
to Asia Wilson. Game ball game.

Speaker 1 (06:14):
I mean, sometimes experience is just you know, the best
teacher and Nat tibbets he hasn't been here in the
WNBA finals coaching this team through this, and it honestly
looks like Beckinghamon's getting the upper hand on them.

Speaker 2 (06:28):
They're up three games to none.

Speaker 1 (06:30):
I don't know what else they really have to do,
but what I will say is that the Phoenix Mercury
won't quit.

Speaker 2 (06:34):
We'll talk about that more.

Speaker 1 (06:35):
As we get up to the game, but what they
showed me in that fourth quarter is that no matter what,
Phoenix Mercury aren't gonna quit.

Speaker 2 (06:41):
So I'll give them that much.

Speaker 1 (06:43):
All right, a little bit longer of an intro, but
I promise you would be a relatively quick episode here.

Speaker 2 (06:51):

called one hundred gambler in Arizona, Colorado, Illinois, in New Jersey, Ohio, Tennessee, Virginia.

Speaker 2 (08:36):
Okay, let's talk about it.

Speaker 1 (08:39):
I got a couple of player props that I want
to give out for the game one Friday.

Speaker 2 (08:43):
Here.

Speaker 1 (08:44):
First thing, let's talk about Chelsea Gray, because Chelsea Gray,
her assist prop is still at six and a half,
but now it's a six and a half at plus
money after she did not get over last game she
had five. If you saw that game, you know Jackie
Young actually had the biggest cist game for the Aces.

(09:04):
The ball was in her hands a lot. She was
play making, making decisions and all of that, and that
typically happens with Jackie and Chelsea. Some days it's the
Jackie Young day. Some days it's the Chelsea Gray day.
More than often than not it's the Chelsea Gray day,
but sometimes it is the Chelsea Gray day. And so
Chelsea Gray, however, has been very good in this series.
She's gone the first two games. She had double dig's

(09:26):
assists in the first two games. She's been over this
prop in six of her last ten games here in
the playoffs. I think that this is a good spot
because the Phoenix Mercury have just shown an inability to
be able to card anything the Aces have going on
effectively at all. This is going to be who can
put up enough points, whose offense is going to be

(09:46):
good enough, and we'll see this could be This very
well could be the letdown spot. And that's where I'm
afraid of. If this is the letdown spot for the Aces,
where hey, the Aces are feeling really good, they're up
three games to nine, They're feeling very complace it.

Speaker 2 (10:02):
The Mercury, go get one.

Speaker 1 (10:03):
It's probably not the best shooting day for the Aces,
and the Aces take this back home and gave five
and win this on their home court. Now, the Aces
have no problem winning championships on the opponent on the
opponent's home court.

Speaker 2 (10:15):
Please go ask the New York Liberty.

Speaker 1 (10:17):
So I haven't really committed myself one hundred percent to
that idea, but I understand that if there's a way
this lose is probably something along that of the completency
of the Aces being up three games to none here.
But Chelsea Gray, the playmaking, the assist opportunities, all of
that is going to be there for her. And she's
still in a battle with at for leader in assists

(10:39):
of the series. I think Chelsea Gray is going to
have a solid assist game. Give me over six and
a half assist from Chelsea Gray there, and then before
I get play number two. I just have to say
real quick that Penny Hardaway sign Team USA Jersey that
is up for grabs. All you have to do is
go give us a subscribe over at Betting Pros and

(11:01):
comment on any fast break Bets video. You might as
well do this one that you're listening to right now,
and you have a chance to win that Penny Hardaway
sign Jersey.

Speaker 2 (11:08):
All right, now, next.

Speaker 1 (11:12):
Play, let's go to Let's go to Khalia Copper because
Khalia Copper's been so good in these playoffs, She's been
so good against the Aces. I think this is a
spot where Khalia Copper no Sasusabli.

Speaker 2 (11:25):
I'm well, let's not. Let's not come in to that.
It's not one hundred percent that sa who's not playing.

Speaker 1 (11:29):
But I don't know anybody that goes into the back
of concussion symptoms and then comes back the next game. Now,
if she didn't have a concussion, then it probably, you know,
it would mean that she'd be able to play. But
it really really did look like a concussion, and with that,
she's gonna be out of this game. So we're gonna
insert Kalia Copper over seventeen and a half points here

(11:50):
She's been over this in two of the three games
in this series. She's been over this in three of
her last five twenty one and twenty three in those
first two games, and she had seventeen last night. And
it's because she had a very very slow start to
that game, and then she got to the fourth quarter
and she ripped off eleven straight points, and honestly, I
don't know why they stopped going to her at that point.

(12:12):
At that point, I've been trying to get a call.
Look every single time she was coming down the floor,
because she ripped off eleven straight points to even put
themselves in position to go and.

Speaker 2 (12:21):
Try to win that game.

Speaker 1 (12:22):
So Kalia Copper and all that happened, the eleven straight points,
it happened immediately after Sawtu Sabi went down.

Speaker 2 (12:29):
Immediately she went.

Speaker 1 (12:31):
Down, Kalia Copper said, hey, I got us, I got this.
You got to remind yourselves if you're new to the WNBA,
you have been watching for a long time, because I
understand a lot of people were not watching the WNBA.
In twenty twenty one, Kalia Copper was a Finals MVP.
Kalia Copper understands what it takes to beat on these

(12:52):
moments to play well and to win a championship. Now,
I'm not saying it going win the championship this year. Sorry,
I appreciate that to my aces Ship future, but I
think that she's gonna go down swinging. And what I
saw last night is that when they're down and the
game looks like it's done and the team has nothing
to be excited for, she has given them a spark

(13:14):
and she ripped off those eleven straight And so I'm
gonna continue that into the next game and say she
keeps it going with the potential saw to Sobly not
playing in this game, give me Klei Copper go over
seventeen and a half points. With that, those are the
two plays that I have for you today. Chelsea Gray
over sixty six and a half point. I mean, oh sorry,

(13:36):
I'm reading both things at the same time. Chelsea Gray
over six and a half assists clear Copper over seventeen
and a half points, and there we go with that.
I'm att really underscore undscore Michigan. Give me a follow
on x at betting pros on XA and tittok at
Betting pros NFL, on squamming YouTube dot com, slash betting bros.
And with that, I have nothing else, say nothing else,

(13:59):
do no other way. If it podcast is standing like this,
you hear that Brouns is out, Brons is out, brums
are out.

Speaker 2 (14:16):
We are out of here.
