I believe the players will and do deserve a pay raise. Comparing their losses to the NBA in years is a little disingenuous. Even though the NBA lost money for a lot of years, they didn’t lose it to the extent that the WNBA has even with last year‘s boom the league lost $40 million greatly due to the owners changing travel to private jets. But no one looks at that as a good faith gesture.

they have to pay more than just the players also how long did it take for the nba to gain traction fr. and that was back before the internet and black and white TV we've come so far in today's world at this point if women would just show up for the W this wouldn't be a convo

The NBA should stop funding the WNBA one year and we will see it goes

the nba should walk and tale their money with them, let the WNBA figure it out on their own, just like the nba did. Then this argument would would be based on a level playing field.

2022 FORBES estimated each franchise value at 100 million. 2025 FORBES estimated each team value at $300 million. if I'm a owner I'm happy. the WNBA as well as the NBA are project entities.. The NBA tells us the numbers. Adam silver is guarding the books like the Epstein files. I believe like all other NBA commissioners. You get what we say you get. not what you've earned THERE'S A RAT.

Please explain simply and succintly how you pay money you don't have. Please give practical examples. Don't just refer to nba making losses. Give real examples of how a business will pay their players when they are losing money.

Back when they weren’t making money, I hate to tell you this, but some of the players were only making $12,000. They have only started making these outrageous amount amounts of money when these TV deals so you can’t compare sorry, young lady.

Why they keep brining up the NBA back in the day when tv or internet didn’t start unit the late 80s / 90s . The WNBA had everything when they started so stop comparing. They are fumbling the bag and were not prepared. Still have hope to get money but let’s see if they put in the work

The NBA wasn't subsidized like the WNBA for years. Don't compare the two.
