She said the WNBA game is being attacked by people sitting in their basement who can't dunk a donut let alone a basketball
People actually gave the WNBA a chance when it first came out even gave them a pass on the poor play at first because they are women but after a few years it just became unwatchable. I give this Caitlin Clark craze maybe 2 years before people stop watching again because it's still the same product that people stopped watching years ago
It all depends on league leadership. Several things they can do help grow the league. Better scheduling is toward the top of the list for me. Also think the league lacks good coaches overall. All the best are at the college level. Which is the opposite of most pro sports. I think you would see better schemes and execution on the floor if this changes.
Prob won't see any time soon, because the money is not there to attract them. Watch a LSU, UCONN or South Carolina game. You won't see anywhere near the mistakes(missed layups) at those programs. Like you would watching some of the WNBA teams, with the exception of Aces, Liberty, Suns, and Lynx. Which makes sense when you look at who made it to conference finals. I do think Fever is on the cusp of being one of those teams. I would've said Sky if they hadn't fired their coach after one year. That team had a whiles to go. But I think Spoon could've gotten them on that level.
You also have stars like JuJu and PaigeB on the way to help keep the momentum going. Now there will always be a certain percentage of people who won't watch much women basketball. Not having dunks or playing at the same speed/athleticism as men is big turnoff for some. I actually think the fundamentals and execution is better for the top women college teams than the men.
