Liv is so intelligent.
Bro a defensive liability and can’t win without wigs or iggy
Steph isn’t under appreciated lol
He's the best offensive talent for sure. That defense always lacks. but hey we only care about one side of the ball huh
FACTS!!!
What's this narrative that there's no marketing for women's basketball? Iowa's last game was the highest watched (2.5 million) game of men's or women's game pro or college at ESPN all year. The problem with women's basketball is not enough women go watch and care about women's basketball. Men are the highest audience and revenue for most women's sports. Bottom line a lot of women don't watch women's sports !!
Talk to your fellow women, if you can get at least get 40% per the total of men watching the NBA, for women to just know who and talk about Caitlin Clark, you might have a point, but WOMEN ARE NOT SUPPORTING THE WNBA! So please! You want help? Then Get your home girls when a man want to take them out or go on a date, tell them to take yo ass to a WNBA game! problem solved!!!!! YOU WOMEN are the most influential being on Earth, so STOP THIS COMPLAINING, And run your seductive game! You hear male rappers rap about LeBron or Step Curry, where's that Nicki Minaj, Megan Thee Stallion talking about Caitlin Clart, Carol Blazejowski, or Diana Taurasi? Huh? What? If this is marketing, then it's up to WOMEN to show enough interest for the "markets" to see value in it! There's enough powerful women out there that can change the game…LITERALLY! There is a line made in a movie… "The call is coming from inside the house" and the problem is your fellow women! Now get yo ass busy!🏃🏿♀️🏃🏾♀️🏃🏽♀️🏃🏼♀️🏃🏻♀️🏃♀️💨💨💨💨💨💨💨👈🏾
Why is she talkin n not cookin?
She knows ball! Yes maam…Steph Curry is HIM. Best player in the world (he/Giannis for sure)
Same skill?
Huge NBA fan. When I lived in Sacramento, I enjoyed going to Monarch games and followed the WNBA fairly closely. Sadly, I didnt know who Kaylen Clark was until you mentioned her. Glad you're highlighting women players / leagues.
Thank you for speaking this truth and not sugarcoating it.
You need money to market tho, why market something that isn't making money
Steph is talked about a lot..but only by the fans of nba..rest the nba..the media..and especially the refs love to ignore him and let him get fouled and still say he lives on the free throw line.
A lot of people in the media who are former players only think about who they would not want to face 1 on 1 when they rank players. So they value size and strength and don't see all the things Steph brings to a team that are less visible but so important.
The sports consumes is like a pie there are four slices NFL NBA MLB and NHL sometimes even more slices if you're in into foreign sports. There's just not a lot of eyes for all these sports and since men are mostly the ones watching sports they mostly like watching Men play sports. I see a lot of women talk about a equal pay and revenue but I don't see a lot of them in the stands watching games. I feel if women want their sports to be looked at same light as men they need to support their sports leagues like men do. You shouldn't need men's validation for your sports be popular it's women's sport. Validate your own. Women should empower women.
Ben Simmons should never touch a basketball court again. He should be 86 from all basketball courts and arenas.
Liv made some great points. But the WNBA/Women's compensation issue is pretty simple to figure out and fix… the Iowa game got 2.5m viewers which is amazing, and if she were to go to the WNBA and keep that kind of following the value of the WNBA will increase, it'll stop COSTING the NBA money and actually bring in PROFIT which will allow these players a higher salary. It ALWAYS takes supreme talent to bring new viewers and revenue to Sports… Magic and Bird saved the NBA because of their talent, rivalry and charisma… MJ made it global and expanded the brand which brought player salary WAY UP in the 90's…. Ohtani is bringing new fans all over the world to baseball with his one of a kind talent and will move the needle for players into the $500 MILLION range… IT TAKES TIME AND TALENT to move the needle. And Caitlyn Clark may be that perfect combination for the WNBA and the only way we'll know is if she keeps putting up numbers the way she has been on the BIGGEST STAGE, and people like you talk about her. BUT just talking about the issue isn't enough. The PRODUCT has to be great for new viewers to flock, and the WNBA and Women's basketball, until now, hasn't had that.
Ben Simmons is the WORST player in NBA History. Between ability and availability, mentality and confidence, HE IS AWFUL.
You came for sons neck but just like if another player is stealing money by underperforming or injuries she has the right to call it the way she sees it
"A man can be as great as he wants to be. If you believe in yourself and have the courage, the determination, the dedication, the competitive drive and if you are willing to sacrifice the little things in life and pay the price for the things that are worthwhile, it can be done." –Vince Lombardi
Did she really compare Steph to Kaitlyn Jenner?
Steph Curry is under appreciated is this sarcasm?!?!
Simmons has a nerve problem he's treating. Hating on a man cuz he's injured. So effign stupid.
Steph my fav player ever 🔥
CC has a melanin deficiency that prohibits marketing promotion. Dawn Staley is the face of WBB.
We all know who Caitlin clark is she’s a bucket
Steph isn’t a nike product , they will hate on him until he retires
Women always complain about what they deserve, but the same Women support Mens sports more than Womens sports.
More women need to get more involved in women sports.
