Griner's a dude. He's like that swimmer, can't play with the guys, so he claims female status and plays with them. I could almost dunk in 9th grade and I was only 6'2". How tall is griner and can barely dunk? Oh and every time he does make a dunk, he's hanging on the rim afterwards like an idiot.

They gotta go 8 - 8.5 ft. Griner is 6'10". She can barely dunk. They can't jump. Almost all her dunks are freebies. They move out of the way to get a dunk into the books. She has performed about 2/3's of the successful dunks in WNBA history. She has missed almost half of her attempts. Hardly any of her attempts have ever been contested. There is a clip of a player's teammate getting mad at her for not moving out of the way, so Griner - on the other team, can dunk. WTF!! In fact, any player in the WNBA who can dunk, will be given free space to do so. You can't find contested dunks. A compilation video made in 2022 of every WNBA dunk in history is on RUclips. It's barely over 1 minute long.

@@Chewykbar not as incorrect as you think as the WNBA is estimated to cost the NBA $20-$50m in losses every year but is down to $10m now so if there are 450 players in the wnba roster and if they were each responsible for the loses that would be $22k ea for $10m but out of that 450 less than 100 would be able to actually pay it with their contracted pay 🤣

The biggest trade in WNBA history being the Griner/Bout trade was dead on. I could name here lots of memorable NBA player trades/transactions that fans remember. That should say something.
The only reason I even know Griner or ANY WNBA player is bc of smth bad they did. Same for any female footballer. Nothing to do w their athletic achievements. Unlike Rousey and the Williams sisters.
The biggest problem for the WNBA is that there aren't any marketable players. At least in the early years they were able to market a few players and drum up some interest. They took advantage of the incoming college stars. Nothing about anyone in the league right now is marketable.
I played basketball in high school but wasn't that good. At 6'3" I could dunk, I could block out, rebound, and I knew how to use my body to frustrate the opponents, but just wasn't that good of a shooter, and a mediocre defender overall when it came to dealing with the quicker guys on the court. With that said, I played a lot of rec league basketball and we found a court where we could lower the goals to 9'. Man, all of a sudden us average high school athletes were doing alley oops, reverse dunks, 360's, etc. It was the most fun we could imagine on a basketball court even though we didn't have any spectators. I have no doubt this would certainly help the WNBA and give it some much needed excitement. Enough to make a difference? I don't know, but why wouldn't you at least want to try?
because they have been taught since birth that women are just as capable as men and that would shake their beliefs even though it is obvious that they are no where near the level of the average NBA player.
Because these women were brought up with the false sense of grandeur, that they are just as good as men, if not better. So to lower the goal would mean they are not as good as men and it would destroy their narrative.
I'm 5'7 and there was a court in my neighborhood with 9 ft rims. Man it was fun to be able to dunk and clap the backboard like 6'7" dude. I agree it might make the game more exciting. They would still be slow and unathletic but at least they could dunk.
I was thinking of having the Kawhi laugh as my alarm clock but im to afraid it will accidently go off in the middle of the night and ill piss myself lol
I won a pair of tickets to a WNBA game. I accidentally left them sitting on my front seat when I left to go shopping. When I got back, my front window had been broken and there were 4 tickets sitting on my front seat.
TRUE STORY: My work (450 workers) held a silent auction for Indiana Pacers and Indiana Fever courtside tickets. Dude won the Pacers tickets with a $450 bid. Fever ticket high bid was $1.99.
When I heard about the incident where the team Twitter went after the NBA star who recorded a positive message for them, I didn’t believe it. I legitimately thought that some context was being left out. Nobody would be that openly rude. That would have just been despicable behavior over nothing. But nope. That’s it. That’s exactly what happened. The arrogance and hubris boggles my brain. And when people suggest lowering the rim, they get so angry and resentful. Like, honeybunches, you exist for entertainment. That’s it. No society needs pro sports. We have them because it’s supposed to be fun to watch! And if people aren’t having fun watching you, you need to fix that. It can’t be any simpler. The league isn’t there for your egos. It’s there to entertain. And right now, you aren’t doing that.
THIS ALL DAY!!! The second half of this comment is factual GOLD. I've never heard this argument be said in a more humorous, yet matter of fact way. Every WNBA supporter should be forced to read it.
It's typical feminist entitlement, NBA players earn their wages, these women are getting the equivalent of alimony from the NBA and they still complain. The NBA should grow a spine and cut these entitled brats off from the gravy train and see how long they will survive.
Im from Chicago and I swear I didn't know we even had a wnba team let alone won the championship. That shit was HILARIOUS to watch on the news. Literally just their family members came out for the "parade" 😂😂😂
That trophy is just like the one Ant-Man received from his daughter that dubbed him “Worlds Greatest Grandmother!” She later took it to school for show and tell.
Shaq : "You could lower the rim to help you dunk" Candace Parker "Nahh were good bc in about 10-15 years my daugther and girls like her might be able to dunk a couple times a season, also give us more money" 😂
I'm curious if she thinks WNBA will still be a thing whenever her kid comes of age, heck I don't think the kid would want that kind of burden on her shoulders to begin with.. talk about setting your own child up for failure.
@@dantefromdevilmaycry9857 i wouldnt be surprised if the entire organization crumbles and implodes on itself. they lose 10mil a year and the ONLY people keeping the league alive are nba players but the wnba players AND the teams bash NBA players every single time that they shout them out or give advice. not sure why they think these men are punching bags but their gonna cut around and pull their funding and then the wnba is gone. some nba players donate hundreds of thousands every year. not sure who they think is gonna replace that money when people like lebron and draymond stop giving it which they've already implied they might do cause of how much shit talking they do and their unwillingness to want to make the league better. they disrespect the older NBA players and disrespect some of the most popular young players like luka when they shoutout the wnba. when the older guys get tired of it then they gonna pull the funding and they arent exactly making it easy for the young guys to like the wnba or care about it. the older guys were born before the league was even founded so they want to see it grow into the best thing it can possibly be and want to grow along with it. the young guys have no such attachment or reason to care. cant imagine the WNBA bashing a 40yr old draymond and him just throwing hundreds of thousands of dollars at them every year but at this rate thats what the WNBA is gonna be doing.

Ah yes the same Shaq who relied on pure athleticism and couldnt make a wide open free throw, the game who thinks Bol Bol is the same as Wemby, Shaq is the god to casuals like you
@_ripVanWinkle_ He is no god, but he knows a thing or 2 about basketball. He played his whole life, played with and against the best. So yea, when a man that I respect speaks, a "casual" basketball player and coach for decades, like me, listens and takes pointers... Does the WNBA have to do everything he says? Hell no, but at least listen to the man and go to work with his advice.
@@_ripVanWinkle_he made his career on dunking on other people and rightfully said that if women were dunking on other women they wiuld get more views, just as the NBA, because no matter how skilled the guys are, if there's literally no dunk people would stop watching
Lol, actually when it comes to shaq and foul shooting I wouldn't doubt that all the women could beat him and men in the leagues. We all know that. He's had some highlights too. But besides that ... he's got a point.
The craziest part is she started to say the word “opportunity” but couldn’t actually think of anything. Lowering the rim would literally give them more opportunities…she just wanted to throw that word in
I honestly think lowing the rim is a great idea. It'll definitely bring more excitement, which is what the league should aim for, since it is one of the major factors that determine the revenue. The reason why the current WNBA players oppose that is because they don't want to relearn.
Difficulty is that they will then demand that EVERY park, EVERY school, EVERY location of a 10' hoop, that they will have a girls height hoop too. Or they have to modify every single one to adjust heights. Only way in the world that will happen is if the wnba pays for it, and that'll never happen
@@JD_49 No it's not, because if you look at most parks and schools, the average hoops are about 9'9". There was a video about that (I forgot who), but I'm sure you can look it up.
I don't watch any of the games when they're on for more than 10 minutes. I could honestly say that if I lived close to a city with a team I would definitely go. I mean why not?
Last week we had a friendly match between afterwork teams (guys with an average age around 40 who mostly just played at amateur level during high school years) and yet there were more dunks and 3 pointers during those 40 minutes than during the usual WNBA match. The fact that those ladies really (who I am sure train really hard, don't get me wrong) keep bringing up pay gap compared to what the monstrous superhuman athletes in the NBA ear is ludicruous, especially considering that the reality is that the WNBA never drew a dime, so the % of revenue arguments sound rather bizarre.
Lower the rim is actually a good idea! We want highlight reel gameplays. We want flashy passes, alley ops, huge blocks, steals even some fights! We want something! Anything!!!
It floored me at about the 6 minute mark when she said “nobody’s retiring and more people keep coming in”… they’re not retiring because they probably financially cannot afford to💀😂 most people that make 110k a year usually don’t retire until their 50s or 60s. Maybe even later.
The fact they make 6 figures for a sport that ten people get guilted into watching is still insane anyway. They should look into the new trans athlete craze it might actually help their sport giving them their Wilt Chamberlain.
Dude... Thankfully I ran into this video. My evening wasn't going so good, a few wnba vids came up and I landed here and cannot stop laughing now. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
my friend and i went into a restaurant and we were talking about the nba. there was a wnba game playing on tv and we started watching. we had such a fun time watching 10 ladies pretending to play basketball. i even told my friend that i wanted to watch more, not because of the sport quality, but because it was funny to watch.
I'd be up for it if they lowered the rim where they could actually have highlight plays. Also, a lot of people are turned off from the WNBA because of the attitude and entitlement of the players themselves, always attacking others for their failures instead of improving their product into something even casuals would want to watch.

Never say never but I seriously doubt that with a 10 ft rim.
We'll keep dreaming
It’s crazy that they’re ok with playing with a smaller ball and the 3 point line being closer, but lowering the rim is where they draw the line 😂
For me, the reason is simple. They know. They know that a 9-foot rim won't change much. So they refuse, so that the debate continues, knowing that everyone thinks this is the solution, and they pretends that the problem does not come from there, but from the lack of support from the NBA and the " conspiracy" aimed at not making them more visible.

At 6'3" I could dunk, I could block out, rebound, and I knew how to use my body to frustrate the opponents, but just wasn't that good of a shooter, and a mediocre defender overall when it came to dealing with the quicker guys on the court. With that said, I played a lot of rec league basketball and we found a court where we could lower the goals to 9'. Man, all of a sudden us average high school athletes were doing alley oops, reverse dunks, 360's, etc. It was the most fun we could imagine on a basketball court even though we didn't have any spectators. I have no doubt this would certainly help the WNBA and give it some much needed excitement. Enough to make a difference? I don't know, but why wouldn't you at least want to try?
because they have been taught since birth that women are just as capable as men and that would shake their beliefs even though it is obvious that they are no where near the level of the average NBA player.
@@jinov191correct
Because these women were brought up with the false sense of grandeur, that they are just as good as men, if not better. So to lower the goal would mean they are not as good as men and it would destroy their narrative.
Because the truth is harder to deal with than a 10ft rim! 😂😂😂😂😂😂
I'm 5'7 and there was a court in my neighborhood with 9 ft rims. Man it was fun to be able to dunk and clap the backboard like 6'7" dude. I agree it might make the game more exciting. They would still be slow and unathletic but at least they could dunk.
“Nobody in the WNBA got covid! The promoter lost his ASS on that gig!”

Kawhi laugh made me choke on my dinner bruh😂😂😂 had me weak
I can Imagine if it was Shaq then. 😜
No it didn't.

The shit at the parade crowd had me dyin'
I was thinking of having the Kawhi laugh as my alarm clock but im to afraid it will accidently go off in the middle of the night and ill piss myself lol
I won a pair of tickets to a WNBA game. I accidentally left them sitting on my front seat when I left to go shopping. When I got back, my front window had been broken and there were 4 tickets sitting on my front seat.
TRUE STORY: My work (450 workers) held a silent auction for Indiana Pacers and Indiana Fever courtside tickets. Dude won the Pacers tickets with a $450 bid. Fever ticket high bid was $1.99.
I got 6 tickets for free working DT. I ended up giving them to homeless guys leaving work that day.
Dafaq? that was absurd no one would waste that amount of money $1.99 is too much

When I heard about the incident where the team Twitter went after the NBA star who recorded a positive message for them, I didn’t believe it. I legitimately thought that some context was being left out. Nobody would be that openly rude. That would have just been despicable behavior over nothing. But nope. That’s it. That’s exactly what happened. The arrogance and hubris boggles my brain.
And when people suggest lowering the rim, they get so angry and resentful. Like, honeybunches, you exist for entertainment. That’s it. No society needs pro sports. We have them because it’s supposed to be fun to watch! And if people aren’t having fun watching you, you need to fix that. It can’t be any simpler. The league isn’t there for your egos. It’s there to entertain. And right now, you aren’t doing that.
It is a testament to how petty most women are these days.
THIS ALL DAY!!! The second half of this comment is factual GOLD. I've never heard this argument be said in a more humorous, yet matter of fact way. Every WNBA supporter should be forced to read it.
Just got the Lingerie Football League route.
It's typical feminist entitlement, NBA players earn their wages, these women are getting the equivalent of alimony from the NBA and they still complain. The NBA should grow a spine and cut these entitled brats off from the gravy train and see how long they will survive.
That was very well said!
Im from Chicago and I swear I didn't know we even had a wnba team let alone won the championship. That shit was HILARIOUS to watch on the news. Literally just their family members came out for the "parade" 😂😂😂
Bro same. I saw that shit on the news and said “Wait we got a women’s basketball team” confused as fuck😂😂😂
This is all hilarious to hear thanks for sharing 😂😂😂😂
Shit I’m just finding out now
Then you ain’t paying attention. But yes, no one showed up
@@tysonvslewis12 🤣🤣🤣
That trophy is just like the one Ant-Man received from his daughter that dubbed him “Worlds Greatest Grandmother!” She later took it to school for show and tell.
Shaq : "You could lower the rim to help you dunk"
Candace Parker "Nahh were good bc in about 10-15 years my daugther and girls like her might be able to dunk a couple times a season, also give us more money" 😂
In the meantime, that's like 100 to 150 million dollars the league will lose while waiting.
I'm curious if she thinks WNBA will still be a thing whenever her kid comes of age, heck I don't think the kid would want that kind of burden on her shoulders to begin with.. talk about setting your own child up for failure.
@@dantefromdevilmaycry9857Its not
@@dantefromdevilmaycry9857 i wouldnt be surprised if the entire organization crumbles and implodes on itself. they lose 10mil a year and the ONLY people keeping the league alive are nba players but the wnba players AND the teams bash NBA players every single time that they shout them out or give advice. not sure why they think these men are punching bags but their gonna cut around and pull their funding and then the wnba is gone. some nba players donate hundreds of thousands every year. not sure who they think is gonna replace that money when people like lebron and draymond stop giving it which they've already implied they might do cause of how much shit talking they do and their unwillingness to want to make the league better.
they disrespect the older NBA players and disrespect some of the most popular young players like luka when they shoutout the wnba. when the older guys get tired of it then they gonna pull the funding and they arent exactly making it easy for the young guys to like the wnba or care about it. the older guys were born before the league was even founded so they want to see it grow into the best thing it can possibly be and want to grow along with it. the young guys have no such attachment or reason to care. cant imagine the WNBA bashing a 40yr old draymond and him just throwing hundreds of thousands of dollars at them every year but at this rate thats what the WNBA is gonna be doing.
Yeah like WTF is you talking about. Like she wants her to be the only one that can dunk
I'm in here crying!!!😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 They are arrogant as hell to keep missing as many shots as they do!!🤦🤦🤦
She made way for Britney to miss an open dunk.Dam
She should’ve stayed in Russia.😂😂😂
That's a street ball move. All that was missing was "SELFGUARD!!" scream.
Yeah, wth was that? Almost seemed rigged.
The transition from Kawhi’s laugh to Griner’s laugh had me dying… lmao
I laughed so hard looking at the police serving as security for the WNBA parade. NO ONE gave enough care to show up let alone attack them😂

When Shaq gives pointers about basketball, you stfu, listen and go to work with it...
Ah yes the same Shaq who relied on pure athleticism and couldnt make a wide open free throw, the game who thinks Bol Bol is the same as Wemby, Shaq is the god to casuals like you
@_ripVanWinkle_ He is no god, but he knows a thing or 2 about basketball.
He played his whole life, played with and against the best.
So yea, when a man that I respect speaks, a "casual" basketball player and coach for decades, like me, listens and takes pointers...
Does the WNBA have to do everything he says? Hell no, but at least listen to the man and go to work with his advice.
@@_ripVanWinkle_ you really thought you was going to cook with this comment.
@@_ripVanWinkle_ I mean the thing is, is he wrong about his advice? Why isnt it worth trying out?
@@_ripVanWinkle_he made his career on dunking on other people and rightfully said that if women were dunking on other women they wiuld get more views, just as the NBA, because no matter how skilled the guys are, if there's literally no dunk people would stop watching

Your report is objective and true. This WNBA might be worth watching if they dunk da ball.
This is the closest I've ever attended a wnba anything
This comment is a hidden gem
Straight up delusional, imagine dismissing Shaq like that!
Let them wallow in it until it becomes no longer financially viable and cancelled.
Lol, actually when it comes to shaq and foul shooting I wouldn't doubt that all the women could beat him and men in the leagues.
We all know that.
He's had some highlights too.
But besides that ... he's got a point.
@@ericmol2614 Shaq alone vs. 6 wnba players he could win it 254 to 10 without the free throws
@@o_-970 he would just walk that shit across the court cause none of them would be able to reach up and try to take the ball or block lmao
The craziest part is she started to say the word “opportunity” but couldn’t actually think of anything. Lowering the rim would literally give them more opportunities…she just wanted to throw that word in
@@ericmol2614Shaq doesnt need free throws to beat them, you lost your brain for a second? 😂
This was vid was too good. When you said "the only trade I am aware of is when Brittney Griner was traded for the merchant of death", I lost it! 😂💀
The response to Shaqs advice is the problem
Watching Britney griner and the WMBA before Caitlin Clark got there was like watching Jerry’s kids play ball
I honestly think lowing the rim is a great idea. It'll definitely bring more excitement, which is what the league should aim for, since it is one of the major factors that determine the revenue. The reason why the current WNBA players oppose that is because they don't want to relearn.
Even the ball is smaller!! Why not lower the rim?
Yea, maybe 3 or 4 more people will show up ...🥴
Difficulty is that they will then demand that EVERY park, EVERY school, EVERY location of a 10' hoop, that they will have a girls height hoop too. Or they have to modify every single one to adjust heights. Only way in the world that will happen is if the wnba pays for it, and that'll never happen
@@JD_49 No it's not, because if you look at most parks and schools, the average hoops are about 9'9". There was a video about that (I forgot who), but I'm sure you can look it up.
ok so adding the Kawhi Leonard media laugh is maybe the BEST humor placement ive EVER seen in a video lmao well done sir!!
made me laugh every damn time!
i know!! It never gets old!! Amazing..lol..
Played it way too much
The Kawhi and Brittany Greiner laugh throughout was outstanding 😂😂😂
I don't watch any of the games when they're on for more than 10 minutes. I could honestly say that if I lived close to a city with a team I would definitely go. I mean why not?
Even Kawhi laugh better than those "highlight"
Bill Burr’s bit on the WNBA is amazing.
"Nobody in the WNBA got Covid."
He wasn't wrong.
You know it's bad when "Keeping Up with the Kardashians" has more viewers and higher ratings than WNBA games
This is by far the most entertaining thing ever. How is making fun of the WNBA more entertaining than the WNBA?
Anytime they play a game, do an interview, or post on social media...... They embarrass themselves
I get it.. you only like men
I'm not gone lie... I got 2nd hand embarrassment seeing this. The small mvp trophy, no one at the parade smh damn.
Last week we had a friendly match between afterwork teams (guys with an average age around 40 who mostly just played at amateur level during high school years) and yet there were more dunks and 3 pointers during those 40 minutes than during the usual WNBA match.
The fact that those ladies really (who I am sure train really hard, don't get me wrong) keep bringing up pay gap compared to what the monstrous superhuman athletes in the NBA ear is ludicruous, especially considering that the reality is that the WNBA never drew a dime, so the % of revenue arguments sound rather bizarre.
If things were equal they’d owe money.
What's 10% of squat😵😂🔥💯😎🫘
@@ryanbesco8067and they'd relent millions of jobs men can clearly do better. Why are men suicidal??
Lower the rim is actually a good idea! We want highlight reel gameplays. We want flashy passes, alley ops, huge blocks, steals even some fights! We want something! Anything!!!
That 4 tickets joke was hilarious!
That caught me off guard 😂
As someone that worked for a business that lost money and failed. I'm pretty glad I was hourly and not revenue sharing.....
It floored me at about the 6 minute mark when she said “nobody’s retiring and more people keep coming in”… they’re not retiring because they probably financially cannot afford to💀😂 most people that make 110k a year usually don’t retire until their 50s or 60s. Maybe even later.
Bingo! 💯🎯
The fact they make 6 figures for a sport that ten people get guilted into watching is still insane anyway. They should look into the new trans athlete craze it might actually help their sport giving them their Wilt Chamberlain.
Exactly. Retirement is a dollar amount, not an age.
They should be able to break all the men’s scoring records if they could play into their 60s.
@@dylanmorgan2752 the last thing they need is a shemale coming in and getting MVP every year while carrying the team to victory 😂.

my friend and i went into a restaurant and we were talking about the nba. there was a wnba game playing on tv and we started watching. we had such a fun time watching 10 ladies pretending to play basketball. i even told my friend that i wanted to watch more, not because of the sport quality, but because it was funny to watch.
A Genie is trapped in that trophy.

She can rub it all she wants but it isn't gona give any revenue shares.
Not a buss though
That K Leonard laugh is just haunting. Edit: as I was typing this he showed the video. I knew it was him lmao
The well-timed Leonard laughs, the broken-in car WNBA tickets comment and the Spinal Tap-sized trophy!!!! 😂😂😂😂
That twitter joke about that car that was broken into was hilarious....lol.
"I'm so mad. I had 2 WNBA tickets in my car and today someone broke into my car and now I have 4 WNBA tickets". GENIOUS!
This is the most WNBA highlights i've ever watched.
Bro, when you said the word, "Trade" I IMMEDIATELY knew it was gonna involve Britney Griner. 😂😂😂
I'd be up for it if they lowered the rim where they could actually have highlight plays. Also, a lot of people are turned off from the WNBA because of the attitude and entitlement of the players themselves, always attacking others for their failures instead of improving their product into something even casuals would want to watch.
They aren't even hot, they can't play, what do they want from us?! Give us something worth watching.
I can watch better competition and athleticism at my local HS. WNBA is only good for comic relief.
as far as I'm concerned they could lower the rim to under 9' and they would still be boring, a few dunks will not save them from themselves
just like the punks they play soccer and think there so high and mighty
If the parks set up 9 foot nets they getting destroyed first day by people like me
Almost dunkers 😂
WNBA reality check videos never get old. Thumbs up and subscribed. 😂

At 9:50, you said the WNBA ball is a bit smaller at 29". The WNBA ball is actually 28.5" making it 1" smaller than the NBA.
But yet in their hands they say it is the biggest ball they've ever held.
@@PowerLineOfficiali doubt it just recently, my ball was held
That Kawhi laugh got me EVERY TIME it was not overused and was always on point! That trophy… hahahahaha
Maybe the reason they don’t want to lower the rims is that they think they would not dunk better still?
A very wise person once said "I'll bet that the lady in the wnba logo missed the layup."
That’s good! I wish I had thought of that😂
