Elena Della Donne is better.

But the answer is no. Professional women are about on par with a decent high school boys team.

Woman can never physically compete with men. Our bodies and hormones don't allow it. Britney would get destroyed in the nba . There's a reason why no one watches the WNBA.

I think a 6'8 man who has never even heard of basketball has a better shot at competing in the NBA than Brittney Griner does.

Really, she doesn't have a chance against anyone in the NBA. Maybe Luke Walton.

A WNBA All-Star team would lose 9 out of 10 times against Oak Hill Academy. The only reason they wouldn't struggle against just a typical high school boys' team is due to them probably just having better shooting.

WNBA All-Stars vs. a D-I college team would be a complete laugher. 30-40 point win. NBA? 50-60.

you kids must not get out a lot. I have played with girls that could out shoot me for days.


But I do see the point about physically.

I'd like to pwn Griner, Wonton

The Bobcats would win 130-50 without even thinking. THE BOBCATS. OKC would score that much by halftime.

Heat vs. WNBA All-Stars/All-Time league team is a 100+ point Heat victory.

She weighs 170. She can barely dunk. She can't shoot. I said it before and I'll say it again. Cheryl Miller is the closest we've ever had to a woman in the NBA. Shooting is a universal skill so a 6-1 160 sharp shooting woman could make it but probably as a bench warmer.

Yes, really. You definitely proved your point by showing me a video of a random pickup game between a multiple-time WNBA All-Star, Finals MVP, and WNBA champion and a backup PG in the NBA. Face it. Pick the BEST WNBA players of ALL TIME, no limitations, all in their primes, and they would get DESTROYED by the current Bobcats. No contest at all. Biyombo himself would put up 50/25 or something.

no. Blake Griffin could shut her down defensively.

why are you changing your argument now?

You said Oak Hill Academy would beat a team of WNBA All-Stars (a team which the chick in the vid would be apart of along with similar skilled players) 9 out of 10 times.
