so you think bottom to top, the nba is chock full of guys with a high basketball iq?

i don't think nba players have higher IQs but i have noticed that either WNBA teams are poorly coached or the players don't listen because i have seen really poor clock management/decision making in the WNBA consistently as compared to the NBA. In the NBA these mistakes are made every so often while in the WNBA they seem to be made at least once a game. I also see a lot of low percentage post pass attempts that go out of bounds/to the other team etc

on a side note did anyone watch the Storm game and are they resting their starters already or did Tulsa just play better?

All sports have players that make bone-headed plays. It happens in football as much as any where. I always wondered what is all this practicing and film watching doing, when you watch a football and see poor execution.

i echo the previous poster's sentiments. we never say "those dumb men, they're all horrible" like we seem to do when a woman makes a mistake in the wnba. watch some wnba, bet on the right teams for once, and you won't be bitching about how bad they are.

right now i'm rooting home the sparks +3 and watching the game. is it perfect basketball? no, of course not. no one will admit that men and women are equal when it comes to an elite level of sports--not even women. but maybe certain in game decisions are made with this in mind, like what the op is concerned with. and plenty of dumb decisions are made across the board in regards to pro basketball, pro football, and honestly, all of men's college basketball, which no one seems to have a problem watching, and you very rarely hear how bad the iona vs st. tommy's school of the blind game was to watch, even though it ended 38-36 and everyone and their mother seemed to bet on it.

all i'm saying is the wnba isn't bad ball. some teams suck, some teams don't, some are in the middle, but you will see good ball if you watch enough of the wnba. i wouldn't have said that before this year but it is true, i've seen it all with my own eyes. there's nothing that's happened at all where i think, "man, this never happens in the nba". because the nba is half full of total shit players with shit attitudes who make retarded decisons and unforgivable mistakes. yet, i still i love the nba, go figure.
