Yeah, and I also don't get why you need intense players. Believe me, if you are getting executed if you lose, all players will have max intensity.

That whole lineup i posted would be able to do that

nash is 6ft3 Lebrons 6ft8 or so. Kobe is 6ft7 or so. Melos 6ft 8 or so. KG is 6ft 12 (its how he likes it)

That would be a pretty tall lineup vs a WNBA All Star team. They all can run the floor. And they all could play solid D.

Fair enough - but do you think Kobe, Nash, and Garnett are going to be scoring points and stealing the ball as fast as guys like Gerald Wallace, Chris Paul, Josh Smith etc?

Actually now that I think about it, I would make my team smaller. Any SF on up would most likely be the tallest player on the floor anyway, and are much more athletic then the women so rebounding, post defense/scoring shouldn't really be a problem.

PG: Wade
SG: Kobe
SF: Durant
PF: Melo

The WNBA team wouldn't score a single basket. The outcome would be 5 less female "athletes" in the world.


This was my thinking. I think it would be very very difficult for the WNBA team to hold the ball for more than 10 seconds basically ever. I think the max they could score would be 20-30 points.


You're being too generous with the point the women could score. I don't even see them getting a shot off. NBAers are too long, too fast, jump too high, to ever let them get a look.

Best case scenario for the women is to successfully (a BIG IF) inbound the ball then immediately baseball throw it toward the their hoop and hope it goes in, hits the backboard and kills time.
