a fairer comparison would be free throw percentage, which I believe the men are better, even with the larger ball. I asked the AI and its said the men are better at 76 to 74 precent. AI is sometimes wrong tho.


So now your argument is that the men's game is more entertaining because the men are shooting 2% higher on free throws this season.

Give it up. Every one of your posts makes you look more and more idiotic.

didn't say anything like that.

I said that women are not better at fundamentals, not better at shooting, and not better at any part of the game really. I was also countering your claim that the women are better shooters. they are not.

what is entertaining is up to you. if you enjoy the game being played at a far lower level in basically every facet of the game, that's fine. I am trying to understand why, and I think I do, its because you are old. or a lesbian.

idiotic


thanks for being so polite.

I am making a point here about flawed logic. again. people think the women must be better at fundamentals because they are not as athletic, as if they must make up for the lack of athleticism with superior skill. but they don't need to make up for anything, they simply can be worse at all those things.

if they played men and were competitive, they would need to be incredible shooters and passers etc to win to make up for the size and speed and athleticism. but they don't. they play vs women. they can win by being worse than men are at everything, which they do.

yes and even I think he should be fired.

I am the biggest will wade fan on earth. I think he is the best coach of anything, in any sport. I wear mcneese gear when he was there, and now I wear NC st gear to LSU games as a show of support for wade.

I agree there is more energy in the PMAC for women. and that is fun.

I am simply pointing out that the game is played at a very low level. if you like that, great, I am glad you have fun.

congrats. but in general women's basketball fans skew older (game is slower and easier to follow for old brains) and more lesbian. LSU is a bit of an outlier because they are a perennial powerhouse and attract more fans than a typical team.

Imagine thinking that the men are "better shooters" because of a 2% advantage in free-throw shooting, ignoring the fact that the women shoot a higher field-goal percentage and are shooting 4% better than the men on 3-point attempts.

Just admit you are dumb and move on.

its not just the free throw advantage. I mentioned that because free throws are not defended so they are a purer shooting metric.

again, its also to do with defender size and athleticism, and ball size.

the women's rim is larger relative to the size of their ball. makes shooting easier. did you not know that the women use a smaller ball but the same size hoop?

do you think the LSU women could beat the LSU men? owing to superior fundmentals?

the men would beat the women because of genetics, not lack of fundamentals

but as far as which TEAM is more fun to watch, its the womens NIGHT AND DAY

correct I am a very fat lesbian and I can barely fit my fat feet into my Birkenstocks and my subaru to go to the women's game. but that's not relevant to my point is it.

try to keep the discussion focused on the topic and do not lose your temper and deflect to personal attacks.

I am making some basketball related points, you seem unable to counter them.

can you describe why women's basketball gets lower ratings? I can.

You are too moronic to see the irony in these back-to-back sentences you wrote. Sorry that you hate women, I guess mommy didn't love you.

Yesterday was an absolute blast, especially since it was Alabama we took out to the woodshed.

please try to ignore how interesting I am and stop commenting on me, and stuck to the topic at hand.

the women are not better at fundamentals. its less entertaining, which is why the WNBA has never made money.

You sound like a guy, or a fat lesbian, that hasn't watched them play.

This was a fun game. Up 40 and still had 95% of the fans in the arena. I stayed to the end like the rest and was a good atmosphere. I enjoy the women’s games. This year’s team is fun because they are unselfish. Nice to see so much depth that contributes.

NCAA Mens 3P% this year is 34.1%, womens is 31%. Kind of a little more telling of the difference between men and women when you dont' cherry pick two teams, one who is elite in their sport and the other who's terrible.

You ever see a woman have to shoot with someone like this defending them?



40% of all shots in the WNBA are layups compared to 25% in the NBA. This is b/c women are too slow to defend and can't jump to block shots. The ball will always move faster than men and women, but men close out on defenders a lot quicker than women, and some are capable of recovering when beat and blocking a shot from behind.

The league average on all mid range jump shots in the nba is 43.5%, in the WNBA it is 39%
The league average on 3's for the nba is 36%, in the WNBA it's 34%, and they are using a smaller ball and shooting from closer.


Please shut up about women being better shooters than men with their smaller ball.

the women are inferior at fundamentals as well as athleticism.

if you shrunk the men and made them slow as the women they would still win.

there are not women who, for instance, have the ball skills of LSU players like Tremont waters or even DJ Thomas.

I have always liked watching the women play (since the 60's). The reason , I think, is I personally like women that are athletic and passionate. I like to see confident, independent women show passion in whatever they do. I 'm attracted to highly intelligent women with passion and a drive to succeed (most men are afraid of these type women). The women are not as physically gifted as men but the passion and competitiveness in the elite athletes is the same.

No disagreement there, and i'm glad there are plenty of people that go support the Lady Tigers.
