WNBA needs to be more of a W and not of an L league.
Title is suicide lmaoooooo
Love Elena, love the WNBA. Me and my daughter watch and bond during every game we get to watch. We are Atlanta Dream fans but enjoy and respect the whole league.
Brainwashing your daughter to be a lesbian... nice parenting 👍

Because "equality" I guess. So dumb.

because we want to watch it
Nobody watched the NBA at the 20 year mark either
If yall loved the game you'd watch
it's telling that actual, skilled male players never diss the W. She captured the truth better than anyone I've heard [rough paraphrase]: "People who have played and understand the game at a deep level, they get it. It's the HIGH SCHOOL HAS-BEENS who are harder to get on-board." Loved the bit about talking with LBJ and realizing that he really did watch and appreciate their game; also loved John Wall and Bradley Beal go nuts at Game 5 last night.
More athletic and successful than everyone in the comments tbh.

Dayum. So cold, yet so true.
They're really trying to make free throws a serious deal.
Jesus Christ... Don't. Please don't. If you want be to taken seriously put on an exciting game.
Lombre the Hombre the nba can’t even do hack a Shaq anymore so even that is pointless
lol are you serious? Do you know how many times FT shooting is brought up weather it's about Lebron or Giannis or about Nash and Bird ? What are you on about? When you have the highest % of FT shooting ever in both male and female leagues that's something to mention
Your comment doesn't even make sense. It's like you don't even watch the game and are from another country. The comment makes absolutely no logical sense whatsoever.
What an outstanding human being, & an amazing athlete. Love her!!!
Join the Journey DITTO
9 out of the 12 wnba franchises operate at a loss every season, yet the players think they can get paid more without the league completely folding.......
Not to mention it's really unappealing to watch their league when most of the active players are freakin Lesbians.
the WNBA has new deals recently with NIKE for their uniforms and CBS Sports tv deal. Hopefully it doesn't go 💥 like the NWSL deal with Lifetime that was scrapped after two years, but really to earn more $ the W need to beef up their ticket prices if they believe their their game is legit

Time to make a sandwich in the kitchen Elena
Damn bro, you don’t have hands?
The issue with the WNBA is that, there really is no purpose to watch it. Seriously. What makes the NBA so exciting are the technicians as well as the physical freaks of nature. I look at Stephen Curry as a technician. I look at LeBron as a physical freak of nature.
Al Horford physically is a freak, but his style is more of a technician. Shaquille O'Neal was a physical freak of nature, and his style was overtly physical. Grown men used to bounce off of him like rag dolls.
Russell Westbrook is a perfect example of a player that plays great, but isn't really a great player. He physically jumps out of the gym. Nate Robinson and Spud Webb had no business being in the NBA. However they had Immaculate dunking ability. Women in the WNBA physically do not push the boundaries of what you think the average human can do. It's not as if they can't ball, but that's not really what makes you want to watch sports.
Take quarterbacks in the NFL for example, someone like Tom Brady isn't classically what you would consider to be athletic, but he performs great acts of physical Brilliance under great conflict.
Imagine being able to throw a perfect football downfield when Suh and Aaron Donald are trying to take your head off, as Gronkowski is defended by Aqib Talib shows great conflict. What is the WNBA?
That's why it always bothered me that defenders of the WNBA always say "People should watch because the WNBA has good fundamentals". The WNBA is supposed to be the top tier of women's basketball, good fundamentals isn't an accomplishment or a achievement, at that level it should be mandatory. That's like saying we need to support Johnny Manziel because he has good fundamentals despite being a terrible quarterback who couldn't even cut it in the AAF or CFL.
@@fatman2124 Right. It's a requirement to be technically proficient at your craft. They actually talk down to women when they say that.
Regardless, the WNBA is a watered down game
I think spud Webb had 1 actual in- game dunk in his career
People: "The WNBA doesn't make that much money because the players aren't good enough to attract fans, therefore they don't deserve to be paid as much as NBA players."
Hoes: *MAD*
Justin ya they would be mad
Women logic is stupid.
Sexist
They don’t want the same dollar amount as the guys though
@@jamal.emilylang2772 well it isn't sexism if they even got a million the league would fold up
I dont think you get it Elena. we dont call Lebron 'male' basketball player. He is 'nba' player. we call you fruit loops 'wnba' players. See the difference? its not male vs female. its nba vs wnba. The former is an actual sports league and the latter is a joke.
Why is she talking in the kitchen, she should be preparing dinner
Can you make me a turkey lettuce and tomato sandwich thanks baby
If you were better at basketball I would treat you as such the reason why I watch the nba is because they are good average people would run it up against a WNBA squad
I rather watch a pick up game by ametuers than a pro WNBA and ive watched some...
Back to the kitchen
Lower the rim to 9 feet
Mr Mackey she's actually in favor of it
That would affect their shooting though
it is
Agreed
I'd say 9.5
She should be working with Ben Simmons with regards to his/her free throw abilities.
People gonna watch what they wanna watch you can’t force them to like something they don’t like it’s as simple as that
Good marketing makes people watch, simple as that

weird sandwhich tutorial
If I could dislike this more than once, I would.
@@bigbirother16 triggered woman. I bet if Isaiah Thomas will be dunking and be call Micheal Jordan of the WNBA.
auriferous Say whatever you want. It doesn’t change the fact that the WNBA is the worst professional sports league on earth. Also she takes half the interview comparing herself to the men after asking not to be compared to the men. So you tell me which one has Down syndrome.
Where’s my burger
Jared Fogel nigga make your own burger brah
Go grill one
Is this a sandwich making video or...
Good to see the WNBA getting more attention it deserves!
Blake Walker Amen to that, it is well deserved....
Best free throw shooter in pro basketball...How would you describe the WNBA? Bad ass...Lmfao need I say more?
Lombre the Hombre don't kid your self, the WNBA ball is 28.5" and the NBA ball is 29.5", no great difference there. The WNBA league shoots 3p and FT % close to NBA levels, and 2pFg is close behind.
Still, it's kinda silly for DD to proclaim WNBA is badass based on FT shooting...
1 inch is a big difference. That 1 inch is why she shoots 93% and why men never get above 91%.
Considering male hands are bigger, I think it evens out. That one inch is literally just an equalizer.
That moment when your highlights are full of free throws.
Are you tired of the kitchen comments? Stop listen to them! Goddammit, people always forget that the internet is not real life
0:53 damn that arena is PACKED
Who was here before the reupload?
No company has ever thrived because they paid their employees more so they could venture other profitable opportunities along their main profession. That statement is factually and economically wrong and she needs to be corrected.
Literally every team in their league has the same uniform in different colors....
No other Pro sports league in existence does that madness.....
I hear the word empowered from women a lot. Being empowered is when someone else gives you power. If you don't want to be in the kitchen, prove you belong somewhere else. Don't beg for acceptance.
Thomas Postman sexist asshole
The argument that the overall percentage that they're being paid should be raised is bullshit. The WNBA teams are already losing money by paying them this much. Wanna know how to earn more money? Make more money for your teams and then you will be able to negotiate for bigger contracts by being entertaining. Men are quicker, more agile, stronger and that's why they are different. That's why the NBA is way more entertaining than the WNBA and that's a fact. So, WNBA players, if you wanna get paid more, start being more entertaining, start doing killer crossovers, start draining threes, start doing some crazy windmill dunks. If you do this, you will get the attention of the media and fans. People will then watch your games on TV and you will have way more fan attendance. If this happens your teams will make way more money and they will be able to pay you a higher percentage of the money made, which is overall more money. Don't even get me started on how the NBA is giving millions of dollars to the WNBA every year and WNBA teams are still losing money. And don't even get me started on how short your season is. Stop talking and get good.
Gorgeous girl!
Yeah Taylor Rooks is pretty nice
If you wanna know what toxic masculinity is. You've found it right here
I've seen much worse. And I don't see anyone lying. Speaking on observable facts doesn't make you toxic.
@@thomaspostman9175 how is somebody saying shut up and go make me a sandwich observable facts
I’d say it’s more toxic femininity. Stop trying to depict this league as as good as the nba when clearly it’s not. Stop using feminism as a reason people should watch. Make the product better and maybe we will give a shit.
Bruh, she acting like she is “Oppressed”
Arjun Akella are you serious? She making hella money. Lebron and other nba starts get harassed and called horrible things
@@abakella shes not. WNBA games are boring.
She's just inviting people to say that the more she mentions it
Can you make me a PBJ with extra crunchy peanut butter? Thank you!
She's mad because the playoffs were on ESPN news? I mean get more than 1500 people to come to a home game and maybe you can get a TV deal? Also she's tired of all the old high school has beens giving her grief? Easily solved - play a a bunch of dudes in their 30's who played HS ball and then play a Mcdonald's HS all American team. Lose by 40 and 80 respectively.
The WNBA needs a "BIG PLAY". There is no athleticism. Lower the rim six inches and all that changes. The women can show their athleticism and the game grows exponentially. Put your pride aside and lower the rim!!!!!
This is a weird cooking show.
Great interview Taylor!!! Very important topics discussed 💪🏽
Good stuff. She's basically asking for the WNBA to be marketed better to build and support their fan base. This will equal more revenue and thus better salaries and endorsements for the athletes. That's a far cry from the narrative of equal pay for equal work. Delle Donne get's it; on and off the court. Keep it up EDD!
Nobody says that LeBron is a male basketball player. It should be a given because the NBA is way better
2:10 "do you have to say that LeBron is a *male* basketball player?" Actually Elena, remember, your in the *W*NBA...
Love her.
Smaller basketball makes it easier to shoot free throws. It is only an inch, but no doubt impacts her percentage.
They’re women. They’re smaller than men. So the ball to hand ratio is proportionate regardless of gender
these comments bruh lmao
I didn’t watch the video yet but according to all the dislikes she probably talk about gender equality... Right ?
My question to those criticizing the WNBA is how many of you have watched a game, it seems like many are trying to make prejudices before giving the league a chance. Basketball is basketball, I went to a Mystics game a few years ago and was shocked at how talented these athletes are. At the end of the day it's still basketball, it might not be the same as the NBA but that isn't necessary a bad thing.
i did. im watching uconn one of the best womens college team, they are missing easy open lay up on a way too high level. i saw at least 3
shane but you're not a professional. You don't need to be one of the best players on the planet to play in the ymca.
Lombre the Hombre why can't I support the league not only for the basketball but also because they're women? The NBA has better numbers I'm not doubting that, but it seems that most fans don't watch the WNBA because they don't dunk. Were used to seeing these insane athletic plays at the rim, but that shouldn't be necessary for high level basketball. These players want more money and understand the league can't give them it. They aren't looking for supermax deals, they are asking to enough so they don't have to go overseas to pay the bills. If the NBA invested more into the league, they could likely at least make enough so they don't have to rely on playing in Europe.
@@jordankendall2705 You cannot keep missing the point as to why people dont watch the WNBA. Stop reducing it to people not being able to dunk.
The NBA has supported the WNBA for two decades. Nobody cares about the game.

When Lebron did his hate crime hoax a couple years ago, I was laughing at him
Frank Williams
Good for you, dick.
Lord she is oblivious the female game sucks let's just be honest about it. How do you change a business plan lol for a league that generates zero revenue. We dont want to watch varsity basketball on tv. Period I can walk down the street and see the same level of play. How can they dictate how the consumer spends their own dollar?? I think the masses have spoken. I'll pay to see extrodinary not the average.
Aight get back to the kitchen
Yo why did they reupload this bull shit????
I don't know why they are comaparing about the men league and the women's league it is the same they play basketball and what's wrong about that? Why don't we just support them and be happy seeing them play the sports that they love. Peace y'all.
" we know the league isnt generating the money the NBA is" goodness finally a damn WNBA player gets it.
We say 'Female basketball player' because you are one, males are exponentially more dominant than females in basketball. That's why we have a separate female league. Women's basketball will never be 'bad ass' because women just don't have the same athletic capabilities as men. You won't see a girl drive it coast to coast like John Wall and finish it with a slam, or a Euro-step dunk like Giannis. Guys don't watch women basketball to learn, we watch to laugh, you even see it in the video. Women's basketball is undoubtedly fundamental, you watch their dribbling compared to the NBA's and it's very different, as well as their jumpshot, driving, etc. That might be the only reason to watch the WNBA. You can't promote a boring league, I'm sorry but Women's basketball will never be as exciting as the NBA. Honestly stopped in the middle of this video bc I can't take the blatant lack of logic, there is no reason for WNBA to ever be equal to the NBA.
There are sports or kind of entertainment that people want to see when it comes to gender. Example basketball, people will watch basketball because of how men moves on the court unlike women, they are not fun to watch. While women excel in other sports like volleyball because women moves more grace. People dont like watching men playing volleyball. Another is beauty pageants, who watches male beauty pageant?
The host is every lesbian interviewee dream 😍
With all the respect of the world for female players, she just told everything when she said "we just can't jump and dunk on everyone", there is a major difference of physical impact between nba and wnba. Ps: I'm really impressed by delle donne's shoot, I think she's one of the best shooters all time even if you count men.
Don’t be silly, they use a smaller ball
@@frankwilliams9409 don't be silly, they are smaller.

Has the WNBA ever had a Michael Jordan type of equivalent that would bring more awareness to the WNBA?
nba: dude destroys rim after taking off from freethrow line

guess what we want to see...
Solarstorm no one from the N ever broke the rim from the FT line (i think Zion will tho...) and they do miss dunks and all-around layups too... FOH!
@@Defender78 what's your point a bricked dunk is still more exciting than a made layup. Some missed dunks makes us react like a made one. Dont lie bro. Lol

Tired of kitchen comments? I'll wake you up with a kitchen commonly then. Waiting for my sandwich fam
I watch a lot of women's sports; lately a lot of hoops. Watching Iowa Hawkeyes has led to watch the recruits as well, so now I'm following a lot of HS players. As a former volleyballer; I find the women's versions make for a better game than the men's. And of course, the USA women have been absolutely killing it at the Olympics and other international games.
I love her!
