  1. I really havent heard anyone say they are in a position to get the same revenue share as the men, just that they should have a bigger share than the 9% that they currently get. Further we dont know what all goes into BRI in the W vs what it is in the NBA.
  2. While I agree mostly, it was year 1 and it was a pretty big success. I could see it going very much along the lines of what the Big 3 league is doing. That league is moving more to individual franchises based in different cities. Its not a rival to the NBA (no matter what Ice Cube says) and Unrivaled isnt a rival to the W. It is a great starting point for that league and for players to have an option to earn good money while staying here in the US. They can also have some input on how that league grows/changes going forward.
  3. Many of the players that participated in Unrivaled got paid as much or more than what they make in the W. Unrivaled has a multi-yr TNT sponsorship already and is growing for the upcoming season. There is also the Athletes Unlimited league that many others played in last offseason. Both leagues are run by players (or former players).
  4. Players are trying to strong arm the league for a new deal. The CBA is up at the end of this season. I suspect the new deal will have an out for both sides at some point during the contracted period
  5. Clips are the same thing they've been for the last 10 yrs or so. Just a team with a bunch of big name players
  6. Not really surprising that he went back to LA. His family stayed behind there the last few yrs while he has bounced around the league.
  7. And won two titles
  8. Never fails and its always hilarious
  9. Saw it yesterday. It was kinda meh. Luthor's entire motivation being just a fucking hater was too much for me to deal with. He was willing to destroy the world to kill Superman. Sucks because I like the actor and I thought they had the physical aesthetic down
  10. The Reebok Angel Reese 1 'Mebounds' Unveiled for WNBA All-Star Game https://www.si.com/fannation/sneakers/news/reebok-angel-reese-1-mebounds-unveiled-wnba-all-star-game
  11. It would be nice to see from time to time I suppose. I neither expect nor want them to be as athletic as men generally
  12. Bingo!!!! Owners always cry broke. They've done it in the NFL and NBA for years despite all sorts of evidence that they arent losing money. Further franchise values are growing very fast so if its so bad why aren't all the owners dumping their teams
  13. Errbody pullin from the log with 4pt shots
  14. LOL, I was wondering when Thomas got traded to the Nuggets. I just went with it
  15. He got complete free rein in BKN to shoot every time he touched it. It will be interesting to see whether he can be successful in a limited role for a team that is looking to play winning basketball. I dont really like Zach Lowe but that's really all he was saying. He put up big numbers for a team that wasnt interested in winning. He didnt say Cam wasnt good.
  16. Its a league conspiracy. They are moving the rims slightly whenever she shoots. They dont want her to be the best. Women be hatin brah.
  17. Brittany Sykes from the Mystics will replace her in the game. Not sure about of a replacement in the 3P contest yet.
  18. Well that is disappointing
  19. I'm pretty confident that "taking accountability" doesnt include blaming the cameraman or the performers.
  20. Yeah I double checked before I posted cause it sounded way to crazy to be real. Reese has played a lot more road game but has taken a LOT less 3s than CC.
  21. Another for the Island of Misfit Toys. Clips gonna always Clip 1B in Oklahoma City is pretty fucking crazy
  22. Yeah that is why I say the worry about expansion is misplaced. There are plenty of good players like her on the edges of the league. I'm pretty confident she will get have a stable spot in the league as the new teams ramp up.
