Well yes they could play. Technically, if you have a functioning body with two legs, two arms, functioning eyes and all that you could technically play in NBA. What also helps a lot is knowing the game rules. And also would be great if you are at least 6ft tall.

Thing is, there are a lot of 6ft professional male basketball players all over the world, who were never drafted by NBA, I wonder how would best WNBA talent play against those guys :jbhmm::martin:
dude posted the same shyt i did at the same time:dwillhuh:

I've said for years that Maya Moore could play in the NBA :yeshrug: Notice he only named a couple of players. Diana imo is too small, and Delle Donne despite her size doesn't really have the athleticism to be a factor. Maya could handle the ball and knock down some open shots in a minimal role, no chick would star in the league obviously.


Della and Diana are shot makers. They'll get u 10 off the bench.

Maya and could be a 3rd string point guard

Della Donne is better than Steve Novak

They are also both probably top 10 female ballers all time, Maya like top 3

He right :manny:

Bro... how the fukk would they even make the league...

Theres 100 college nikkaz better than them.

I like maya... but there's a bum dude at the end of an nba bench somewhere thatll cook every female in that league:yeshrug:

It's nothing to brag about...
It just is what it is...
Sports like tennis are different

No WNBA player would make an NBA team if they went through the same rigors of making the league as the men do. He's talking about skipping over all the legwork and dropping them on a team. A damn high schooler could do that if you said "stand in a corner and shoot when they double me" or "dribble it up the court on an inbounds and pass as soon as you get to half court". The WNBA ball is smaller, the three point line is 22' at the top and 21.5 in the corners. Talen Horton Tucker hasn't played any significant minutes in the NBA and would average 60 in the WNBA.

the point is they can't 'play' in the nba, unless you mean play as in a random mailman is 'playing.' they would be complete nonfactors on both ends. if you're just gonna say they can be out there, then that's true for anybody, but if you're saying a woman can make an nba team by having to beat out men to get a position, then the answer is no and he knows that, he was pandering.

It's a bunch of guys in the league that are non factors at both ends and no that's not true for anybody. It's not pandering to suggest that the top women could find their way into the top 450 men.

Well yes they could play. Technically, if you have a functioning body with two legs, two arms, functioning eyes and all that you could technically play in NBA. What also helps a lot is knowing the game rules. And also would be great if you are at least 6ft tall.

Well we can't act like there are no intergender pickup games. Kobe has probably seen these chicks (well Diana certainly) hold their own against dudes. To your point, would it be crazy to suggest that the best 2 or 3 of those male players could play in the NBA?
