There’s the new Unrivaled league (3x3) that is also an offseason option if the players don’t want to play overseas.
Makes sense for players. Even without a cap, how are those leagues able to afford to pay a player $1M per season? Shirley it’s not based on ticket sales or fan interest, is it?
There’s Olympic gold for that too.
Don’t call me Shirley.
The women do play a more technical game. But they appear to be on a downward trajectory as the league becomes more physical and reliant on 3 point shooting. They have yet to reach the depths of the NBA but they are on the same path.
I enjoy technical basketball. I was a slow, white high school point guard with a vertical jump of 2 inches, whose only skill was the ability to pass the ball through the eye of a needle.
I’m surprised it hasn’t happened already. Or maybe it has?
And another one
I do love the tradition of throwing very specific things on the court, but maybe save it for special occasions like the rat in Florida and the octopus in Detroit.
It’s kinda funny, sorry/not sorry.
It’s the wrong kind of toy to toss out at a WNBA game.
The ad that appeared below your post … it’s as if the Amish are looking at something tossed out there.
Ya done messed up Delbert.
Police in College Park, Georgia, told ESPN they arrested Delbert Carver on Saturday after he allegedly threw a sex toy onto the court during last Tuesday’s Golden State Valkyries-Atlanta Dream game at Gateway Center Arena.
Carver, 23, faces counts of disorderly conduct, public indecency/indecent exposure and criminal trespass, according to law enforcement records. Records show he was booked into Clayton County Jail at 7:42 p.m. He was released late Sunday on an undisclosed bond.
Of course his name is something like Delbert
Dildo #3?
The call: “look out…something just came onto the floor”

The first time was funny, not so much anymore.
Looks like #10 may have some good soccer skills. I know a couple of women’s teams that could use help on penalty kicks.

Lopez reportedly was sorry and said that it was a “stupid prank that was trending on social media.” Documents state that he bought the sex toy the day before just to take it to the game.
Play stupid pranks, win stupid prizes.
So I thought I’d chime in here as I went to Vegas last week to watch the NY Liberty vs LV Aces. (Wife and daughter are fans)
It was very entertaining. I likened it to a minor league baseball game, lots of stuff going on, very engaging for the fans and actually a lot of fun. I would go again. Especially as prices are reasonable (except for concessions). Was a good trip.
Yes the play was not at the level of NBA. Also the WNBA play was a lot more aggressive than NBA. You have a few really good players and the only way the lesser players can stop them is be hammering on them. That is not a good way to keep your stars playing and healthy. I didn’t like that. Also the officiating is ridiculously bad.
My experience was similar to yours at a recent Valkyries game. Fun atmosphere, reasonable prices, and so so officiating. And no dildos were thrown!
Well where’s the fun in that?
