A fan said that the whole setup seemed fishy and said that the league wanted the last game of the series to be played in favor of the Aces in front of their home crowd.

Indiana Fever face Aces in win or go home Game 4 in Indianapolis

After Game 1, it seemed like the Indiana Fever had a legitimate chance to win the series against the Aces. Indiana showed a fierce defense against A'ja Wilson in Game 1. However, the next two games, the two-time champions shut down Kelsely Mitchell, resulting in a broken Indiana offense.

In Game 2 and Game 3, the Aces used the same strategy, and they focused their defense on Aliyah Boston and Mitchell. So far the strategy has worked out in their favor. They are expected to apply the same pressure in Game 4.

With the most of Indiana's forepower out with injury for the season, the role players have to step up in doe or die Game 4, or else they might have to wrap up their season.
