I'm guessing this speech is about the WBNA players want a higher percentage of the revenue?

Is the WBNA still running at a loss? And still subsidized by the NBA?

You could just take 5 minutes to watch the video to see her frustrations and then provide a response.

It’s not too late.

she could have did this speech one week earlier before her team losing.


this speech is absolutely about them losing

Why would she do a speech while her team is in the playoffs? Are you dumb? It would just be a distraction for her and her team. The absolute perfect time to do that speech is team exit interviews.

Virtually nothing about that speech changes whether or not they win the title. This isn't the first time she hasn't shot at Cathy, only the loudest because CBA negotiations are coming up and Unrivaled participants are being announced everyday.

love her , she’s my favorite wnba player, i wanted her to win MVP , she deserved it

BUT

BUT

she wouldn’t have said this if her team had moved on into the finals

i respect when people speak up about things that don’t involve them


she only started speaking out against the refs as her coach did because they LOST

what would you expect her to say at the beginning of her speech?

“ No this is absolutely not because we lost”

YOU SEE THE PLAY

SORE LOSER shyt
:devil:

This is not a valid excuse, just one that the suits love to use. Most companies operate at a loss, and at a loss for extensive periods of time. Hell, the the G/D-League brings in 0 revenue and yet people aren't calling for it's dissolution. AND not too long ago, almost half of the NBA teams were operating at losses. This was before revenue-sharing.

No matter what, they're always going to say the WNBA doesn't make money to justify significant salary increases, completing ignoring if they can.

Who would have the heart to do it?

Bron got one foot out the league
Ain't much left in the tank for Curry
Durant doesn't give a damn, he just wants to ball
Giannis, SGA, Joker are international players, they don't want to step on toes

Maybe Ant-Man?

The acrimony is between you (fans) & Adam Silver. The players are working with full belly’s.

The WNBA is some other shyt and we have no proof nor insinuation of Silver talking crazy like that

NAH YOU SAID THE FIX WAS IN
AND THEY GOT ROBBED.

YOU CANT HAVE IT BOTH WAYS.

:devil:
:evil:


They did get robbed...but the officiating is a league wide issue

Officiating was an issue in the other series too, hence both coaches complaining

Angel McCoughtry was never the same player after she tore her acl due to shyt officiating and playing style of the league

Will they ever understand they aren’t the nba and don’t get the attendance or views therefore they won’t ever make that kinda money

You don't have context...they want revenue split

They're not looking to make nba money in total dollars...they want 40% of revenue which would equal $1M max contracts, not $70M like the nba

BIG REVENUE SHARING STARTS WHEN THE LEAGUE IS THRIVING

IF THE WNBA DID 50% REVENUE SHARING ALA THE WNBA, IT WOULD FOLD WITHIN A YEAR

I started officiating high basketball 2 years ago.

First of all officiating basketball is the hardest out of the sports. Everything is constantly moving at a fast pace.

Secondly officiating high school girls basketball sucks. It is pretty much rugby basketball. The skill level sucks. The WNBA is the same. It's so damn physical and players hack like crazy
