This is my first season following the WNBA and it's been disappointing. Some of these girls can't play, and it has nothing to do with their sex. As a pro, wide-open air balls should never really happen. Multiple shot clock turnovers in succession should never happen. Multiple turnovers in a row shouldn't really happen. I have League Pass and I barely watch any of the games, but the ones I do watch are pathetic. Those girls need to practice their skills, be aware of the shot clock, understand the value of a possession, etc. Why are they complaining about $75,000? Their product is not good. Also, they make a good living! To play basketball! If they want to make NBA money, they need to show it on the court. WNBA shooters should be as efficient as NBA scorers, due to the smaller ball and closer 3-point line. I'm assuming they don't put in the practice that NBA players do. If somebody paid me $75,000 to play ball on TV, I'd practice my a** off so I could show off and kick some a**. That's what sports were to me when I played, so I don't think the girls should give less effort just because they feel underpaid. It's hard to make $75,000 in your 20's, even if you're responsible and make good decisions. Go practice, play the game with intelligence, and more money will come. It's their fault the league isn't more successful after 20+ years. Try harder.

They dont kinda suck they absolutely suck ! There are some great 3 point shooters in this league but the 8 point quarters and the missed running full court open lay ups are pathetic not to mention easy layups under the net that are shots I could make one handed. I often wonder if it's Pathetic or on purpose ? With that being said there is always a spread winner and loser so $$$$$ to be made !
