Comment on WNBA facing major backlash after controversial Caitlin Clark decision
realcaseyrollins@hilariouschaos.com 2 days agoIf the WNBA players aren’t bricking 3s over and over again like they do in the NBA, that’d certainly be a welcome improvement.
It’s rare, but some female sports have benefits/advantages that the male equivalents don’t have. In womens’ soccer, for example, (my favorite female sport), they don’t flop at all. It leads to more gameplay and less downtime.

That’s exactly my mindset. This is more like watching really great basketball players you can cheer for. Not superhuman multimillionaires who have been loved their whole life (deservedly so, but still…). I like that these chicks have had to fight for everything the whole time. Their pay has usually sucked, tho it’s finally better, but not even close to NBA levels. Many have had to play overseas in the offseason just to get paid decent. So they just play year round wherever takes them. lol
The WNBA games are just more relatable to me.
