Why is nobody talking about the LA Sparks historic start to the season? They're just as good as the warriors but nobody is discussing them. Why?

nice deflection of the real issue. if this was the knicks espn would never stop slurping them off but yet sparks get even less attention than fucking esports. candace parker is having a legendary start, the likes of which jordan, lebron or magic have never had and is a top 5 current athlete in america, maybe the world but gets zero respect. its bs

Sometimes I wish I could kill all canadian shitposters. Then I remember that if I kill them, they win.

>>68608168
Because when we watch sports we want to see the absolute pinnacle of human ability. When 60% of the wnba roster can finish an alley oop with a dunk maybe we'll care, until then it's just a subpar product with inferior athletes

Not with the way the Golden State Memes have been encouraging kids today to abandon fundamentals and jack up crazy shots from Tatooine.

Until the WNBA lowers the rims to allow for dunking, no one will care

>>68608503
it has that, I saw the all star game and just like the NBA one they just chunked up 3s

I know this is another, 'nobody watches WNBA because wimminz!' but I just want to remind everyone that the WNBA just turned 20 while the nba just turned 70
>>
>>68608615
What? A few of them can, but it's no where near as prevalent as the NBA. Why shouldn't they lower it?

Women's volleyball has a lower net than men's, as a result, the field is evened for everyone and they perform better
>>
>>68608400
>not blocking that trash
What the fuck? No intensity.

Because the WNBA doesn't rig their games for maximum viewership
>>
>>68608670
The WNBA is 20 years old.

The NBA was founded in 1946.

When the NBA was 20, they didn't even have Dr. J yet.

Give it a minute.

>>68608369
then why is cfb so popular?

an NFL team would kill a cfb team.

>>68608349
Underrated.

the wnba is rigged

>>68608400

If I had to watch one or the other, I'd watch that over the WNBA.
>>
>>68608983

Cause it gives backwater towns in flyover states somebody local to cheer for.

cfb players eventually become NFL players, that why.

How many LA Sparks games have you watched this season?

No can dunk, but good fundamentals
>>
>>68608253

As if this webm doesn't prove women are the superior sex. Mexico was down 18 points to Slovakia, so the Slovakian girl scores on her own basket to make the game more competitive, showing compassion. Then the Mexican girl was so moved by this gesture, she tried to score some points for Slovakia.

Palpable empathy no males would ever display.

>>68608278
Nigga the Warriors just won 30 something in a row before taking their first L and no one gives a fuck about women's basketball
>>
>>68608253
What the actual fuck is happening in this
>>
>>68608168
Because it's not even unique, there are two 11-0 teams in the WNBA right now (also nobody cares about women's sports)
>>
I was watching a wnba game with the sparks at a hotel gym, and it was pretty bad..
They pass up easy shots or drives and pass it to their team mates.
>>
>>68608738
There's a difference between needing time to invent the concept of a dunk and BEING PHYSICALLY UNABLE TO DUNK

The amount of ASS you see in these two sports are fucking AMAZING. Actually, add Tennis to that list as well. I swear to god if I don't land me a volleyball player I'm going to kill myself.

Player misses free throw
Other player then rebounds and scores on the wrong basket
Other team inbounds the ball and attempts to score on their own basket because of the first fuck up

so every player is retarded not just one? you just saw the other team attempt a free throw on that basket and 5 seconds later you score there?! how high is the IQ of the average wnba player

>Flyover country

Georgia, Tennessee, Florida, North Carolina, and Louisiana have a pro teams...CFB is popular because they have built-in fanbases and people enjoy the tradition. The teams just don't pick up and move, either, if they get butt hurt about wanting a new 60,000-seat stadium. Shit, even teams like Mississippi State have stadiums as big as that shit.
