Try getting that through their heads lol

They truly believe they should be making close to what the men are

They can’t seem to comprehend the fact that their league loses money every year and the NBA has to fund them to keep it afloat
With the $2B TV deal they just signed, they will be around for the longhaul. NBA just needs to keep paying $10-20M/yr to subsidize it.

I think the NBA subsidy is a rounding error to the league so they don't really care. By doing this they give the image of supporting women's sports. Its all about the image.

Yep, you are exactly right but they aren’t going to admit that openly lol

The Michael Jordan of women’s basketball has arrived, but I’m not sure even she can make a big enough difference long-term
I would love to compare the first few seasons of revenue for the NBA when it started to the WNBA (adjust for inflation). I wonder if the NBA struggled financially like this?

Someone probably knows the history well.
Hell, Keithrichards was alive through it. :ROFLMAO:
