Sabrina tweeted that she is willing to shoot from NBA 3pt range. that will truly make it fair. If she shoots NBA middys then nobody should take this seriously for both of them it'll just be a show.
Dumb take, the difference between the lines is 1.5 feet. It doesn’t matter, it’s fair if both just take the shot they practice the most. Why does she have to adjust and not steph? If you ask him to move 2 feet closer i guarantee he’ll perform worse than the normal 3 point line, because thats just a shot he never takes and never practices.
They should do it three rounds, 1 round WNBA range and ball, 1 NBA range and ball, then the final would be Sabrina shooting at WNBA range and Steph shooting at NBA range
If you want to prove who's a better three-point shoot then they need to shoot with the same ball and same range. Same height as well. No need to compare apples to oranges if that's the case. You either do it with neutral ground or don't do it at all.

hard agree. It feels so different to hold the ball men use (FIBA) vs the one women use. Same distances, and I've gotten more used to playing with a 7 ball, rather than the 6, but half of the shot form changes because it feels so different.

Here's my opinion. She should shoot from the NBA 3 point line because she is using a smaller ball. That gives her a disadvantage as she is shooting from further out. Steph has the disadvantage of using a bigger heavier ball, but he shoots from the NBA 3 point line all the time and is use to it. I'd say that makes them pretty even at the end of the day. I think this is what she agreed to and it makes sense to keep it fair. Good luck to both of them. Should be a great show.

BTW, she wasn't willing to use the NBA ball because the diameter is much bigger and much harder to make a basket than the smaller baller of the WNBA due to the diameter of the rim
Very impressive tenacity from Steph and consistency from Sabrina!! This isn’t Steph vs Sabrina. These are the two largest U.S. pro basketball associations being shown side by side because they are extremely similar to one another, and owned by the same big wigs. Appreciate each athlete for being dominate in their own lane. Now I see why Sabrina has a Nike shoe deal!
If I’m being real, I could see Sabrina taking it if Steph underestimates her. She’s going in as the underdog, giving her something to prove. Imagine she wins… Her beating Steph would give her and many other female athletes wayyy more respect. This contest means far more to Sabrina, so I wouldn’t be surprised if she manages to win.
Props to Ionescu but if curry shot with her same condition he wouldn't have missed. The ball is smaller and the hoop is the same. The 3 point shot is closer in the WNBA.
I'm one of the few that has shot with both balls a lot because I was a woman's basketball coach. They aren't that different in fact the woman's ball can be trickier because you can't follow through on a lot of them. Notice Sabrina has to pull her follow through back on a lot of them.
BTW, she wasn't willing to use the NBA ball because the diameter is much bigger and much harder to make a basket than the smaller baller of the WNBA due to the diameter of the rim
Lol. That would be funny. The WNBA is a marketing project by Nike to sell women’s shoes. Nike sells 8 billion$ in women’s athletic shoes a year, nearly the same revenue as the NBA total (10$ billion ).
Curry is the best shooter ever in the NBA and Sabrina is the best WNBA shooter ever. I know it’s closer but it was great shooting great performance by both.
BTW, she wasn't willing to use the NBA ball because the diameter is much bigger and much harder to make a basket than the smaller baller of the WNBA due to the diameter of the rim
The WNBA 3 point line is closer than the NBA, and the ball is smaller too. Unless they both use the same ball and 3 point line, this contest is a whole nothing burger.
FACTS! You can't beat the best by asking for a smaller ball and shorter line. You want to beat the best, you use the same exact conditions or it's just for show.
@@aighty7216 I’m just stating a truthful statement. If two people are going to race in a marathon, and Person A has to run the full 26.2 miles, while Person B only has to run 20 miles, is that truly a fair race? That doesn’t make me hurt. I’m not hurt because no matter what the outcome is, I am not affected in any way. I don’t win or lose money, and I don’t win or lose a trophy.
No lie, i didn't see that WNBA 3pt contest but i heard of sabrina and liberty run in the WNBA playoffs last season, she definitely got a shot from what i seen. Steph vs. Sabrina should be interesting especially if shooting from NBA regulation 3pt. line.
A lot of men in this comment section don’t seem to understand that with different physiology comes different regulations in order to MAINTAIN the same DEGREE of difficulty for each respective gender. Men are only looking at this from a male pov, so obviously it seems easier to you to use a smaller ball closer up, but female physiology requires that adjustment to keep the degree of difficulty the same. It’s all relative. Women typically have smaller hands and less muscle mass in the upper body, particularly in the arms and chest. Therefore, the WNBA 3-pointer for a woman is the same difficulty as the NBA 3-pointer for a man.
@@nirogalactoid8398 I agree to disagree, it as said before physiological conditions are different for men and women, in the first place one of the biggest differences is the muscle and mass strength, men have generally more muscle and mass due to the higher levels of testosterone, this difference can translate to greater jumping ability, explosiveness and overall power in the court. In second place, the body composition, women tend to have a higher percentage of fat compared to men, this can affect agility, speed and endurance, but it provides the cushioning and body support that men do not have. In third place, bone density is different because men have a higher bone density than women, leading to more stability on the joints. This can prevent some injures. In fourth place, the hormonal difference is huge, because the period and the hormonal fluctuations can affect women's energy levels, fatigue, and susceptibility to injuries to injuries, quick reminder women play even though they have their period which is scientifically proven to be as painful as if you were to have a constant heart attack every month for about 4-8 days in a row. There are many physiological differences, but that does not make women less because they have different game conditions. And about what you said that women will never be better than men at almost anything, well bud I have a list of things that women have done and maybe you thought it was a man, for example in the field of medicine, women have created disposable syringes, the modern diaper, home pregnancy test, kevlar, the laserphaco probe for cataract treatment, in the field of household conveniences, the dishwasher, the fridge, the circular saw, and the paper bag machine. In the field of communication and technology, women created the first computer program, the software complier, Wi-Fi that I suppose that you used to write the comment and post it, and the spread-spectrum technology. In transportation and engineering, the self-driving automobile, the car heater, the windshield wiper, the Brooklyn bridge, the millau Viaduct, the hot air balloon, the first commercial airplane in America, in the field of science, radioactivity and x rays, cancer research and DNA printing. This is a very small glimpse at what women can do, but its important for you to know that many discoveries and research for women goes unrecognized, also if you wanted to know, women have larger life spans, are better at communicating, have better immune systems, women have sharper memory than men, women handle stress and pain like absolute queens, eat healthier and many more things. So maybe, you should start looking around thinking maybe you're not superior than women, because women are equals to you.
Love how the announcement compares how its a nba record... as she shoots from NOT THE NBA LINE.. Not dismissing her performance. Top notch! But lets not compare the two..
What fucking agenda are you talking about dude, I swear alt right weirdos thinks the world is gonna colapse at the chance of a girl beating a man, so they make up conspiracy theories to cope lmao.

Go talk to your mom for once and stop treating women like inferior animals.

BTW, she wasn't willing to use the NBA ball because the diameter is much bigger and much harder to make a basket than the smaller baller of the WNBA due to the diameter of the rim
I believe this Sabrina's record will never be broken, at least for decades, or may be she herself who will do the record update. Even she is much better than maybe all male players for now What an amazing unbelievable performance! Really great job! 👏🏼👏🏼 👍🏼👍🏼
You must be nuts 🤣🤣 WNBA's balls were lighter, and 3pt line are closer compared to the official NBA 🤣🤣 WNBA ball weights 20 ounces while the NBA weights 23 ounces.. WNBA 3pt line was 20-foot, 6-inch line while NBA 3pt line is 23-foot, 9-inch... Dafuq did you even came up with that idea? 🤣🤣
If Steph shot from that close he’d knock them all down though. So is a 6 point difference when we are considering several feet difference that big of a deal
It will never be fair because a women's size ball goes in the hoop 25% more easily because it is much smaller. effectively curry is shooting on a rim that is 2 inches more narrow than a woman. a woman needs to use a mens 29.5 inch ball and the mens 3 point line for it to be fair.
I think it would be cool to have them both shoot from the NBA 3-point line while using the WNBA ball first and the NBA ball next to see if your theory is correct because you’re probably wrong.
It’ll be cool to watch but due to ball size and the distance of the line it isn’t fair. Also there is no reason either should change what they are use to but it just means nothing as it is two people playing with different rules.
*This 2024 NBA 3pt Shootout should from the NBA 3 pt line but with there respective basketballs* Curry shots with NBA standard bball🏀 and Ionescu shoots with WNBA bball 🏀. *This would be best compromise & common denominator is the Distance the shoot from* a fair trade off, since her record breaking 3pt contest was the best for WNBA & NBA she should be held to that standard, since they put emphasis on it.
Man why is Steph still competing in 3 pt contest??? He is a vet now and already the greatest shooter in the history of basketball. He shouldn't be taking the limelight away from others
I know it's somehow "sexist" to point stuff like this out, but the WNBA ball is smaller, and the three point line is closer, so in my mind it's hard to compare her to Steph Curry.
Everyone in comments is missing the point. The 3 pt line difference is much but thats not even the biggest advantage. I cannot express how much EASIER it is to make shots with a girl sized ball. The hoops diameter is the same nba and wnba , but girls have a smaller ball which makes the liklihood (bc of science) of it going in. Even myself. Someone who at this time plays once in a while, with a girl ball, I am literally steph curry and can’t miss, can shoot 36 footers and it basically always goes in. A smaller ball is lighter and travels farther and goes in the hoop so mich easier then a NBA sized ball lol. Thats the biggest thing.
100% to everyone saying it is not that big of a deal either let steph play with a womens ball and the womens three point line or have sabrina come out to the big boy league and shoot real 3s
If Steph isn’t complaining then why are yall lol, is Steph a girl? No. Sabrina is so why would it not check out that the girl ball works for the girl and boy ball works for boys. And I guarantee Steph doesn’t wanna shoot with Women’s Basketballs completely different rhythm
@@user-hg4hz1lx2h the reason it is a problem is because the WNBA seem to think they are on the same planet as the NBA and they are not. This is most profound in Britney Griners statement that she could beat Boogie cousins one on one. If the WNBA players are so sure they are just as good as the boys then it makes no sense not to use an NBA sized ball from the NBA three point line. simple
@@snipinmonsta Oh bro you got issues w women or sumn😂 Grinner said that hella long ago, went to jail in Russia and some mo and you mad at the THOUGHT that girls might be gettin closer in level at one thing. Bruh Cousins ain’t even in the league at all no more. Secondly it’s fair as is. The WNBA player should the WNBA ball and the NBA Player should use the NBA ball that simple. U just a hater get that outta you, she better than you and me live with it🤷🏾♂️
Regardless of where the line was, that was some epic shooting. With that said, if she wants to challenge Steph to a 3 point contest, they both need to be from the same line AND using the same NBA regulation balls or WNBA balls. Ain't no equality if you are going to be playing by different rules and different tools. And yes, I know that she agreed to shoot from the NBA 3 point line already. But the ball being 2 ounces lighter and 1 inch in diameter smaller makes a huge difference. Hell run it twice, once with both using NBA balls on an NBA 3 point line and once using a WNBA ball on their 3 point line, average them both for the winner.
I agree! You can’t expect a woman to shoot the bigger ball as good and the man to shoot the smaller ball as good. They’ve been practicing with those ball sizes their whole life so I’d be way different.
@@Aetheliait is easy, the body strength is not the same a normal male player is stronger that a female player, not just in basketball, in any other sport and there are proves
Not sure, but I think that the ball is even smaller for women. I think it's a 6 compared to men's 7 which makes it easier to score and have a better grip.
I just don’t understand why people bother watching women play basketball when everything is smaller and weaker than the nba. Are there really people out there who watch the nba and like “woah this too much power and athleticism let’s tone it way down and watch women do the same thing but worse!”
To make this fair shoot out they should have 3 rounds Round 1 - they shoot from opposite 3 point lines. Example Sabrina shoots from the Mens 3pt line with the mens ball and Steph shoots from the Women 3pt line with women ball Round 2 - Switch to their original 3pt line. The catch is - if Steph wins more points in the first round he and Sabrina Wins more point than Steph round 2 then final shoot out at rnd 3 But if who ever wins both 1 and 2 rounds they are the clear winner and there no point of the 3rd round
Make it two shoot in one competition to shut up the haters. One following NBA and one with WNBA standards: ball size, distance, hoop size, hoop height. Steph Curry shouldn’t lose on purpose to further WNBA. It’s about some damn respect for men. Men are not against WNBA. It’s the women not watching and supporting WNBA. Men just prefer NBA for the higher competition level and shouldn’t be punished for having a preference, not be forced-guilted into supporting WNBA. It’s a sport. It’s entertainment. It’s time. It’s money. Let people enjoy whatever with that.

Shooting from the same distance will make it unfair as men and women aren’t the same.

@@bigbonedones7162 It can cause confusion, but Sabrina can shoot way beyond the 3 line tho.
This makes no sense. Its a competition. To compete you have to be at the level where the bar is located. NBA ball, NBA range. 1 round.
If you want to prove who's a better three-point shoot then they need to shoot with the same ball and same range. Same height as well. No need to compare apples to oranges if that's the case. You either do it with neutral ground or don't do it at all.

BTW, she wasn't willing to use the NBA ball because the diameter is much bigger and much harder to make a basket than the smaller baller of the WNBA due to the diameter of the rim
@@FreedomFighter2112well it makes sense that she would use a girls ball, i wouldnt think that she uses a mens size ball while playing
@@theholycrusader784but shouldn’t it be fair, if girls wanted fairness why shouldn’t they get it now?
@@theholycrusader784 that’s right ur speechless
Very impressive tenacity from Steph and consistency from Sabrina!! This isn’t Steph vs Sabrina. These are the two largest U.S. pro basketball associations being shown side by side because they are extremely similar to one another, and owned by the same big wigs. Appreciate each athlete for being dominate in their own lane. Now I see why Sabrina has a Nike shoe deal!
*Needs 11 to avoid elimination* - It was so close, a real buzzer beater
If I’m being real, I could see Sabrina taking it if Steph underestimates her. She’s going in as the underdog, giving her something to prove.
Imagine she wins…
Her beating Steph would give her and many other female athletes wayyy more respect.
This contest means far more to Sabrina, so I wouldn’t be surprised if she manages to win.
Props to Ionescu but if curry shot with her same condition he wouldn't have missed. The ball is smaller and the hoop is the same. The 3 point shot is closer in the WNBA.
I'm one of the few that has shot with both balls a lot because I was a woman's basketball coach. They aren't that different in fact the woman's ball can be trickier because you can't follow through on a lot of them. Notice Sabrina has to pull her follow through back on a lot of them.
Also if you aren't used to the girl ball you'll over shoot everything like Shaq at the free throw line.

Congratulations to Steph and Sabrina..❤❤❤
What’s next WNBA vs NBA 😂
I dare them to do it!
I watch my favorite team for damn sure. But everything else is a side show to gain viewers who don’t care. They trying everything
Lol. That would be funny. The WNBA is a marketing project by Nike to sell women’s shoes. Nike sells 8 billion$ in women’s athletic shoes a year, nearly the same revenue as the NBA total (10$ billion ).
They wouldn’t be aloud to show it though, you can’t televise murder.
😂
Curry is the best shooter ever in the NBA and Sabrina is the best WNBA shooter ever. I know it’s closer but it was great shooting great performance by both.
Steph Curry Is The Goat🐐
yep
That performance was CRAZY by Sabrina but now this year lets make it TRULY EQUAL using the same ball and shooting from the same 3 pt (NBA) line 🤷🏽♂️👀
This gone be more entertaining than the dunk contest anyways
BTW, she wasn't willing to use the NBA ball because the diameter is much bigger and much harder to make a basket than the smaller baller of the WNBA due to the diameter of the rim
"more entertaining than the dunk contest" - And why is that?
Steph absolutely throwing this event. WNBA needs the hype so bad
The WNBA 3 point line is closer than the NBA, and the ball is smaller too. Unless they both use the same ball and 3 point line, this contest is a whole nothing burger.
your life is a nothing burger. you ain't won any skill based competition in your whole life, loser
Why? Would it be also fair to have Curry shoot with the smaller ball and from the wnba 3pt line?
you sound hurt
FACTS! You can't beat the best by asking for a smaller ball and shorter line. You want to beat the best, you use the same exact conditions or it's just for show.
@@aighty7216 I’m just stating a truthful statement. If two people are going to race in a marathon, and Person A has to run the full 26.2 miles, while Person B only has to run 20 miles, is that truly a fair race? That doesn’t make me hurt. I’m not hurt because no matter what the outcome is, I am not affected in any way. I don’t win or lose money, and I don’t win or lose a trophy.
Look at Curry man… so inspirational
GG for the performance Sabrina !
We'll be watching! 👊
Curry and Tandoori going at it
if steph shoots at WNBA range it would be way easier for him
Man, NBA 3pt line or not, Ionescu put on a mf clinic! It is not easy shooting that smooth regardless of the distance goddamn
WNBA ball is the size of a peanut, it goes in WAY easier than NBA ball.
@@joebauers3746 Exatamente!
Nunca tinha visto isto, a melhor performance da história da liga
Put them on the same line when they shoot against each other
give them the same height and bone density and muscle mass and have them shoot. It's called equivalency. Don't be mad she did better.
@@ElliotScottDating If it was called equivalency then the WNBA hoop would be smaller in diameter to match the NBA ball inside the hoop, but it's not.
@@Patatetbk no? What 🤣
@@Patatetbkyeah and the rim height would be shorter too tbh. That would make the WNBA better.
Sabrina is greatest shooter Girl & Stephen Curry Boy it is real amazing performance!!!
No lie, i didn't see that WNBA 3pt contest but i heard of sabrina and liberty run in the WNBA playoffs last season, she definitely got a shot from what i seen. Steph vs. Sabrina should be interesting especially if shooting from NBA regulation 3pt. line.
A lot of men in this comment section don’t seem to understand that with different physiology comes different regulations in order to MAINTAIN the same DEGREE of difficulty for each respective gender. Men are only looking at this from a male pov, so obviously it seems easier to you to use a smaller ball closer up, but female physiology requires that adjustment to keep the degree of difficulty the same. It’s all relative. Women typically have smaller hands and less muscle mass in the upper body, particularly in the arms and chest. Therefore, the WNBA 3-pointer for a woman is the same difficulty as the NBA 3-pointer for a man.
Well I was going to say how about steph could use the wnba 3pt line that makes is fair but idk now. You do make a good point.
This really really really needed to be said in this comment section.
@@CheyenneSedaino it dosnt
Dosnt matter tho same sized ring and women will never be better than men at almost anything
@@nirogalactoid8398 I agree to disagree, it as said before physiological conditions are different for men and women, in the first place one of the biggest differences is the muscle and mass strength, men have generally more muscle and mass due to the higher levels of testosterone, this difference can translate to greater jumping ability, explosiveness and overall power in the court. In second place, the body composition, women tend to have a higher percentage of fat compared to men, this can affect agility, speed and endurance, but it provides the cushioning and body support that men do not have. In third place, bone density is different because men have a higher bone density than women, leading to more stability on the joints. This can prevent some injures. In fourth place, the hormonal difference is huge, because the period and the hormonal fluctuations can affect women's energy levels, fatigue, and susceptibility to injuries to injuries, quick reminder women play even though they have their period which is scientifically proven to be as painful as if you were to have a constant heart attack every month for about 4-8 days in a row. There are many physiological differences, but that does not make women less because they have different game conditions. And about what you said that women will never be better than men at almost anything, well bud I have a list of things that women have done and maybe you thought it was a man, for example in the field of medicine, women have created disposable syringes, the modern diaper, home pregnancy test, kevlar, the laserphaco probe for cataract treatment, in the field of household conveniences, the dishwasher, the fridge, the circular saw, and the paper bag machine. In the field of communication and technology, women created the first computer program, the software complier, Wi-Fi that I suppose that you used to write the comment and post it, and the spread-spectrum technology. In transportation and engineering, the self-driving automobile, the car heater, the windshield wiper, the Brooklyn bridge, the millau Viaduct, the hot air balloon, the first commercial airplane in America, in the field of science, radioactivity and x rays, cancer research and DNA printing. This is a very small glimpse at what women can do, but its important for you to know that many discoveries and research for women goes unrecognized, also if you wanted to know, women have larger life spans, are better at communicating, have better immune systems, women have sharper memory than men, women handle stress and pain like absolute queens, eat healthier and many more things. So maybe, you should start looking around thinking maybe you're not superior than women, because women are equals to you.
Love how the announcement compares how its a nba record... as she shoots from NOT THE NBA LINE.. Not dismissing her performance. Top notch! But lets not compare the two..
Is there video that was recorded from the front her round instead of from behind?
Steph either helps the NBA push the agenda and losses on purpose or he just dominates and goes all out on her…
Or she gets the advantage of taking a middy and using a smaller ball and that lets were win
No. Steph is not a puppet of the Illuminati.
Exactly my thoughts.
What fucking agenda are you talking about dude, I swear alt right weirdos thinks the world is gonna colapse at the chance of a girl beating a man, so they make up conspiracy theories to cope lmao. Everybody knows Steph is the best, but you can't accept the fact that a woman might also be great, so great that her skill is comparable to a man's. Go talk to your mom for once and stop treating women like inferior animals.
BTW, she wasn't willing to use the NBA ball because the diameter is much bigger and much harder to make a basket than the smaller baller of the WNBA due to the diameter of the rim
Shorter distance and smaller ball than NBA. All the things they shouldn't have changed. Shorter rim height would have made more sense
Remember same size rim, different size basketballs
fax
and different distance
BTW, she wasn't willing to use the NBA ball because the diameter is much bigger and much harder to make a basket than the smaller baller of the WNBA due to the diameter of the rim
@@FreedomFighter2112 so 1/5 inch is "much bigger" to you? Just give her some credit man, and stoff being so goddamn salty.
@FreedomFighter2112 well also that's the ball she plays with day in day out. The weight, size, is something she's got used to, can't just change back, I reckon curry would do worse with wnba ball
Tbh no matter what, if she wins we gotta respect that shit cuz she came out and did her thing. If Steph wins, we know it’s because he’s the greatest shooter of all time. Hopefully it’s entertaining and we get a close match
Sabrina is 🔥
cap steph better
For girls maybe.
For a female yeah
CURRY IS STILL THE GREATEST TO EVER SHOOT A BASKETBALL
WARRIORS!!!!
This is for ramping up the Golden State WNBA team 2025!!

@@FreedomFighter2112why are you commenting this everywhere you are desperate man 😂
@@FreedomFighter2112 stfu we all know the real reason, so why don't you just say it?
I believe this Sabrina's record will never be broken, at least for decades, or may be she herself who will do the record update.
Even she is much better than maybe all male players for now
What an amazing unbelievable performance! Really great job! 👏🏼👏🏼 👍🏼👍🏼
You must be nuts 🤣🤣 WNBA's balls were lighter, and 3pt line are closer compared to the official NBA 🤣🤣 WNBA ball weights 20 ounces while the NBA weights 23 ounces.. WNBA 3pt line was 20-foot, 6-inch line while NBA 3pt line is 23-foot, 9-inch... Dafuq did you even came up with that idea? 🤣🤣
Get Caitlin Clark in that contest. If you want to see how step back threes are done watch her.
Smaller ball, closer line.
@@tony4534Don't matter. She can hit them from thirty feet.
@@gurujr Smaller ball, closer line.
Wow, what a performance!!!
If Steph shot from that close he’d knock them all down though. So is a 6 point difference when we are considering several feet difference that big of a deal
Bro j be quiet and respect her
Bro j be quiet and respect her

curry had like 31 why u put his 28 point peformance 😢
It will never be fair because a women's size ball goes in the hoop 25% more easily because it is much smaller. effectively curry is shooting on a rim that is 2 inches more narrow than a woman. a woman needs to use a mens 29.5 inch ball and the mens 3 point line for it to be fair.
I think it would be cool to have them both shoot from the NBA 3-point line while using the WNBA ball first and the NBA ball next to see if your theory is correct because you’re probably wrong.
Thanks
Love you, Curry
It’ll be cool to watch but due to ball size and the distance of the line it isn’t fair. Also there is no reason either should change what they are use to but it just means nothing as it is two people playing with different rules.
i do not care step curry is the best 3 point shooter of all time
*This 2024 NBA 3pt Shootout should from the NBA 3 pt line but with there respective basketballs* Curry shots with NBA standard bball🏀 and Ionescu shoots with WNBA bball 🏀.
*This would be best compromise & common denominator is the Distance the shoot from* a fair trade off, since her record breaking 3pt contest was the best for WNBA & NBA she should be held to that standard, since they put emphasis on it.
Steph the best👏🤩goat
JOKIC?
@@JESUS_CHRIST_777_GOD With only 1 ring? HA!
Man why is Steph still competing in 3 pt contest??? He is a vet now and already the greatest shooter in the history of basketball. He shouldn't be taking the limelight away from others
Please bring back the old school Rules!
Wow....great job!
NBA should let Sabrina to participate in 2024 3pt contest 🔥
lol😂
😂so anyone should be allowed now
Hell nah😂
She gonna airball
@@hansengvad962 😂😂
I know it's somehow "sexist" to point stuff like this out, but the WNBA ball is smaller, and the three point line is closer, so in my mind it's hard to compare her to Steph Curry.
Smaller ball, closer line. Facts can’t be sexist.
Everyone in comments is missing the point.
The 3 pt line difference is much but thats not even the biggest advantage. I cannot express how much EASIER it is to make shots with a girl sized ball. The hoops diameter is the same nba and wnba , but girls have a smaller ball which makes the liklihood (bc of science) of it going in. Even myself. Someone who at this time plays once in a while, with a girl ball, I am literally steph curry and can’t miss, can shoot 36 footers and it basically always goes in. A smaller ball is lighter and travels farther and goes in the hoop so mich easier then a NBA sized ball lol. Thats the biggest thing.
100% to everyone saying it is not that big of a deal either let steph play with a womens ball and the womens three point line or have sabrina come out to the big boy league and shoot real 3s
It’s crazy how much easier shooting a woman’s ball is. They just fall in so much more often
If Steph isn’t complaining then why are yall lol, is Steph a girl? No. Sabrina is so why would it not check out that the girl ball works for the girl and boy ball works for boys. And I guarantee Steph doesn’t wanna shoot with Women’s Basketballs completely different rhythm
@@user-hg4hz1lx2h the reason it is a problem is because the WNBA seem to think they are on the same planet as the NBA and they are not. This is most profound in Britney Griners statement that she could beat Boogie cousins one on one. If the WNBA players are so sure they are just as good as the boys then it makes no sense not to use an NBA sized ball from the NBA three point line. simple
@@snipinmonsta Oh bro you got issues w women or sumn😂 Grinner said that hella long ago, went to jail in Russia and some mo and you mad at the THOUGHT that girls might be gettin closer in level at one thing. Bruh Cousins ain’t even in the league at all no more. Secondly it’s fair as is. The WNBA player should the WNBA ball and the NBA Player should use the NBA ball that simple. U just a hater get that outta you, she better than you and me live with it🤷🏾♂️
Doesn’t matter who you are, you gotta admit, that’s pretty damn good shooting.
Sabrina's release is insane.
That was a ridiculous clutch shooting out of her, that was cool
Ionescu is a beast
the funny thing is its literally from college 3 not nba
@merginggold9 AND ?
International ball uses the same 3 point line, only the nba is different.
@@_vair_ yes im saying its not that impressive to have a higher score than steph literally from closer
@@merginggold9it’s not like she barely beat him. She had a lot more points tbh so it really is quite impressive
Regardless of where the line was, that was some epic shooting. With that said, if she wants to challenge Steph to a 3 point contest, they both need to be from the same line AND using the same NBA regulation balls or WNBA balls. Ain't no equality if you are going to be playing by different rules and different tools. And yes, I know that she agreed to shoot from the NBA 3 point line already. But the ball being 2 ounces lighter and 1 inch in diameter smaller makes a huge difference. Hell run it twice, once with both using NBA balls on an NBA 3 point line and once using a WNBA ball on their 3 point line, average them both for the winner.
I agree! You can’t expect a woman to shoot the bigger ball as good and the man to shoot the smaller ball as good. They’ve been practicing with those ball sizes their whole life so I’d be way different.
Regardless of the closer line and smaller ball what Sabrina did is incredible only missing two shots.
she smashed the record
Never compare Wnba and Nba bro
Why? You don't think the men can be just as good as the women if they try hard enough?
@@Aethelia 😂😂😂😂 men are way better than women in every sport
@@Aetheliait is easy, the body strength is not the same a normal male player is stronger that a female player, not just in basketball, in any other sport and there are proves

Why don't steph do it with a smaller ball and wnba range? Why does she need to adapt?

@@kutayaltintasare you "regarded" ?
She put on a show!
Imagine shooting nba midranges and calling it a three
Not sure, but I think that the ball is even smaller for women. I think it's a 6 compared to men's 7 which makes it easier to score and have a better grip.
says a guy who probably hoops at his local rec on a highschool 3pt line which is even shorter than WNBA 😭
@@ayeeffvee8173 rec 3 is same as WNBA
And what about biological difference ?
I just don’t understand why people bother watching women play basketball when everything is smaller and weaker than the nba. Are there really people out there who watch the nba and like “woah this too much power and athleticism let’s tone it way down and watch women do the same thing but worse!”

@Jgol626 I pray God will save you.
Steph Curry is the best Shooter in the history of the NBA,
☕Woman☕
To make this fair shoot out they should have 3 rounds
Round 1 - they shoot from opposite 3 point lines. Example Sabrina shoots from the Mens 3pt line with the mens ball and Steph shoots from the Women 3pt line with women ball
Round 2 - Switch to their original 3pt line.
The catch is - if Steph wins more points in the first round he and Sabrina Wins more point than Steph round 2 then final shoot out at rnd 3
But if who ever wins both 1 and 2 rounds they are the clear winner and there no point of the 3rd round
Steph's shot is even more refined now
Make it two shoot in one competition to shut up the haters. One following NBA and one with WNBA standards: ball size, distance, hoop size, hoop height.
Steph Curry shouldn’t lose on purpose to further WNBA. It’s about some damn respect for men. Men are not against WNBA. It’s the women not watching and supporting WNBA. Men just prefer NBA for the higher competition level and shouldn’t be punished for having a preference, not be forced-guilted into supporting WNBA. It’s a sport. It’s entertainment. It’s time. It’s money. Let people enjoy whatever with that.
