WNBA rookie A’ja Wilson talking that wnba money vs nba money after Lebron signed with Lakers....

[largebillsonlyplease]

Women in the WNBA do deserve to make more
they simply fucking put ain't bringing in enough revenue to pay them anywhere near close to the minimums the men make

So if you want to say they should make more YES
don't compare them to the men though because the men bring in BILLIONS OF FUCKING DOLLARS EVERY YEAR
and women's simply DON'T

and there's literally nobody to blame for that other than themselves.
Women don't even watch women's basketball enough to move the needle otherwise they'd get paid more.

I would love to see Gleague vs the WNBA all stars. I think it would create some buzz and bring the casual fans in.

 

[REDLINE]

Bottom line, the women are very talented but the league doesn't make enough money to pay players huge salaries.
Their problems is attracting and keeping fans.

Women's college basketball is huge, those fans stop at the college level and the WNBA needs to find a way to get those fans from being college fans to WNBA fans also. That's their biggest problem.

 

[ballscout1]

i go to a couple WNBA games each year. They are entertaining.

I don't see her comparing GLeague pay to hers. Talking about a disparity

NBA could do more but at least they don't have to wear lingerie

 

[keone]

If they let me take over that league I would increase the value more than 10 fold in less than 2 seasons.

First thing I'd do is change the uniforms to bikini bottoms and sports bra tops.

Draft more bitches that don't look like men.

Draft more bitches with phat asses.

Draft more bitches with phat cameltoes.

Instantly turn that league around and sell out stadiums.

#metoo will hit you so hard you wont have a career after those 2 seasons

 

[Man_Of_STeeL]

last i checked the WNBA isn't profitable....it's being subsidized by the revenues of the NBA...

there used to be two professional women's basketball leagues....the WNBA and the ABL...and the ABL had to fold because it wasn't profitable...

the WNBA coulda and woulda went the same way...except they have a Billion dollar organization behind them....

Realistically speaking, what could the NBA do? They advertise their season and they're games.

Put them in lingerie if you want, I'm sure you'd see a some nuts poking out!

WNBA season is 1/3rd of the NBA for 50k minimum plus they can go get other work overseas? Shit that ain’t bad living for a league that’s not drawing a ton of fans and that has operated in the red for just about all it’s existence.

 

[knightmelodic]

First of all, if the NBA pulled their funding the WNBA would fold in a heartbeat. The NBA is the only thing keeping them afloat.

Secondly, they made a big mistake when they tried to play and compare themselves to the men several years ago. They should have stuck with the narrative that they play fundamental, sound, basic basketball. I think there's a market for that. A lot of bball fans I know appreciate good passing and spacing and d.

Apples to mangoes.

Shit. Apples to fucking spaceships.

 

[RoomService]

He’s right.... now tell the nba players to take a %15 pay cut to give to the wnba players

 

[mchammertoeeesss]

 

[Dr. Truth]

Damn lmbaoooo

 

[Philli]

 

[younggiftedandblack]

Shit almost half of the NBA isn't profitable. I get what's she's saying and I agree, but I wouldn't hold my breath.

Man these hoes not dunking out the gym or doing any super athletic plays in the air...

 

[havelcok]

113k and nobody knows her name

sounds like she is getting a good deal

 

[RAY V.]

The Cappie Poindexter chick look like she eat the hell out of some pussy

 

[REDLINE]

The league has to make more money before they can afford to pay more money. I do believe the players should get 50% of the revenue.

I really get tired of people saying this. The women are athletic and great athletes.

Now ask yourself a question, do you “Really” want to see women dunking like that? Many are already manly enough, dunking will just be the final step.

But who really wants to see women dunk? I’m f the rim was lowered to 9ft and many women were hen dunking, would that make it more exciting for you?

Probably not.

Dunking would make the game more exciting...

All the women do is shake & bake and hit long threes...

Before the players can ask for more money, the WNBA itself has to make more money...i've been to a few Sparks games and while they are cool, it's nothing to hold my attention like that.

When you watch the NBA Dunk Contest, is it “Exciting”?

Does the NBA Dunk Contest really hold your attention?

I know that’s slightly different but to me, dunking in the WNBA isn’t gonna make the game that much different. It’ll be funny to see women dunking on each other but it’s not gonna make the game a world of difference.

WNBA Playoff games are fun to watch, most regular season games not so much.

Dunk contest does hold my attention...

My thing that im getting at is that WNBA games are all the same...

Predictable


Crossover, shot, block, pass...etc


There's nothing unbelievable or spectacular happening every other night like there is in the NBA...

Dunking would for sure increase viewership so cats could see women getting posterized.

 

[PDQ21]

She need to do like Candace Parker did, get her a NBA player and have a kid by him and lock him in.

She made more money then him

He fighting for her money on the divorce

I understand where you’re coming from.

With that said, this past Women’s NCAA Final Four was more exciting than the men’s. With better endings.

The women will start dunking on each other one day, then we’ll see if that’s what everyone was waiting for.

Sheldon’s career earnings were 12.2 mill, not sure if Candace made that much.

She did have to pay out in the divorce through.

Not gonna happen

Men just don't like girl shit

It's like me going to pay a Nicki Minaj album, it's not gonna happen

I respect her ability even like sum of her songs but I'd NEVER buy it or ride around listening to it even if somebody gave it to me for free

[Gully]

The bottom line is women can't do what men can do physically, and until men stand up and tell these broads to stop it with this equal shit, we will have to continue to hear this stupid shit.
