The only problem with the WNBA is the game is pretty inferior even to college.  You could put up a mens college team vs a WNBA team and my money is on the college team.

It's not just about being able to dunk either, it's all fundamentals and such.

 

 

 Maybe it was woman's college basketball. I remeber he said that it was more of a team sport and not dominated by star players like the NBA. There was more passing the ball between players and more shooting at the basket. Not so much dunks and lay-ups.

There is more passing and shooting... it's just there is also unforced dribbling errors and the shots are worse.

I've seen players make 5 or more steps without dribbling the ball and not being called for traveling...dozens and dozens of times. Defense is pointless since players will practically tackle the defender just to get around them. There are almost never close games. At least the Maryland Terrapins are good.

 

They probably took 2 huge steps and then a small jump. They are allowed to do that and D Wade and Lebron always do it.

I do not like NBA at all. I used to like it when Jordan played but now I can not stand these new players. The game is not worth watching anymore.

You don't like Lebron, Dwight, Wade, Kobe, etc. There are great players in today's game. A lot more than back when Jordan was playing. But, Jordan leaving the NBA did make a lot of people stop watching it.

Somewhat. I also prefer NCAA due to a livelier audience.

Slam dunking ruined the sport. It's dominated by a bunch of mutants that can barely make a free throw. Raise the basket another two feet and half the NBA would be flipping burgers at McDonalds.

I remember an old teacher I had who preferred the WNBA because they actualy had to play basketball the way it was intended to be played. They had to shoot baskets instead of dropping them in.

The only problem with the WNBA is the game is pretty inferior even to college.  You could put up a mens college team vs a WNBA team and my money is on the college team.

A college men's team would destroy any WNBA team with ease.  A more even matchup would be a WNBA team against a high school boy's team, and even then my money would be on the boys.

NCAA basketball is horrible compared to the NBA.

The NBA is Basketball being played at it's highest level, and no other form of basketball tops that. You guys are just talking about what media is the best/worse. Youre jugding things based on that, but the actuall basketball being played in an NBA game is amazing.
