It’s all about revenue. People that come to the games etc.
You can’t force something otherwise others will follow and it will turn into one big mess.
The WNBA has averaged $10 million in loses annually since it started in 1996 . It generates $60 million/yr in revenue compared to the 8 billion the NBA makes. Equal play between the WNBA and the NBA will never happen.
[Kelsey Plum] I’m tired of people thinking that us players are asking for the same type of money as NBA players.. we are asking for the same percentage of revenue shared within our CBA. NBA players receive around 50% of shared revenue within their league, whereas we receive around 20%.
@TrainingDay how can you ask for the same % when the league makes an annual lost of $10M? Explain the maths , I'm all ears
Now we have to find a way to make the market possible to attract the money and grants so there is equal pay after all maybe like the picture glamorous Sports.

All right enough with spamming okay don't do it on my particular post you understand me thank you
I think it's stupidity.. They Dont draw near as much of a crowd. Less ticket sales less advertising revenue means less pay.. Same for women's soccer..
It's simple math, it's just sad most feminists aren't capible of that.
No, and I bet female golfers will be next in line. The problem is they not only have weak viewership, but I've seen bigger crowds at hot dog stands at their events.

its not deserved, a female body builder may do the same thing as a man on a technical level... but she lifts 400 ibs less. so she doesn't do the same WORK as a man
this is important because she is paid less because less people care
You're an idiot if you're talking about basketball. Basketball is about skill. Height helps and strength helps but can also hurt you from getting foul calls but anyway.

@TrainingDay female basketball players do not have the same skill as a man, they can't jump as high, can't run as fast, aren't as tall. and aren't as coordinated. get over it
You earn based on the money you make, period, this is not communism. Why don't male models make the same money as female models?
When I see a women making Aaron Gordon and Russell Westbrook-like dunks, then I'll support equal pay 😉
"Why don't male models make the same money as female models?"
For the same reason male porn stars don't make the same money as female porn stars.

James Harden is better than the two you just listed... why? Skill. You don't need to be able to dunk to be fun to watch. Look at Steph Curry. He is damn near the face of the league and he doesn't dunk. Dunkers are rarely the best players anyway because they have less skill because they rely on genetics. LeBron is the only one and that is because he is skilled mentally. His IQ is off the charts.
1. LeBron
2. KD
3. Jokic
4. James Harden
5. Joel
6. Giannis - oh look he is the most athletic one at this point and is the worse of the named players because he has no skill... Russ can't shoot either. He'd be top 3 if he could.
if they want more pay they need a higher demand. Maybe if they dolled themselves up with a little make up and played in string bikinis they could get the equal pay they want so badly XD

Coward
It's guaranteed if they can produce the revenue and take the same risks.
All within the realm of possibilities, though unlikely.
Actually, it's unlikely for most sports categories to achieve the same success as this.

Ya, when women can draw more than 50 fans to a game then they can ask for a raise.
The draw thousands idiot.

The revenue disparity is because the NBA keeps that league afloat with their advertising and facilities revenue.
It should be allowed if men are getting paid more. The wage should increase for most careers anyhow.

Equal work, equal pay; but then the reality is that the two products are unequal in terms of consumer support.
Name me one reason why you should get paid the same wage as someone who does your job better than you.

Women are just as good. You don't even watch. Probably never played basketball on any real level either
@TrainingDay The first thing u sent me sounds good. The second thing u sent me sounds delusional. The NBA isn't male-only. If women were good enough they would be in the NBA too.
Understand how NBA salaries work and get back to me. Equality is cancer and the more people strive for it the further this country goes down the shithole.

Because Females work hard and deserve it
They out it the work
They out in the effort
They do their best in the basketball court
They deserve it
It's about freaking time. They get equality
What about these female athletes?
![Deserved or not? What do you think about female athletes (WNBA) demanding equal pay to male athletes (NBA)? Is it possible in the future?]()
They work hard
They out it the work
They out in the effort
They do their best in the pool
They deserve it?
Isn't it about freaking time they get equality too?
The WNBA doesn't make nearly as much money as the NBA does. So it only makes sense if you use woman math.
[Kelsey Plum] I’m tired of people thinking that us players are asking for the same type of money as NBA players.. we are asking for the same percentage of revenue shared within our CBA. NBA players receive around 50% of shared revenue within their league, whereas we receive around 20%.
I think it's possible in the future but it's might be hard because there not such a fan base for women in basketball like the men.

They can ask but they can't get it because there is not enough interest. Therefore, they can't bring in enough money.
While I'm not against it, they would have to lower the pay of the men to make that happen. The WNBA is just nowhere near as popular.

not possible. You earn a portion of the money you bring in and the WNBA doesn't bring in a lot of money. I don't care to watch the WNBA
When WNBA players draw the same crowds and revenues NBA players, then they can demand the same pay. Until then they can STFU.

🤡 ...
@TrainingDay Why do you have a blue account?
Pay they more
Plus women with tons of money are attractive

Feminists are all for equal pay even if the women don’t bring in as much money as the men do but if men started to demand the same salary for sex work there would be a problem. Feminists are scum.

As soon as they generate as much money, that discussion will be valid. Until then, no.
Either that agree to a contract which pays less, they draw less of a crowd, or can’t market effectively. Whatever one of those it is, it’s on them to fix it.
How? Pro Sports is a business. there's not even equal pay among players in the NBA.

Pay is based on Box-Office receipts... and NO it will never happen there are Not enough fans to support higher pay
Unfort consumers tell us what to pay people. In a perfect world yes. I’m not a sports fan, but is there a reason why WNBA isn’t watched as often?
I don't think it likely at all because women's sports don't generate the kind of revenue that men's sports do... on and off the court.
[Kelsey Plum] I’m tired of people thinking that us players are asking for the same type of money as NBA players.. we are asking for the same percentage of revenue shared within our CBA. NBA players receive around 50% of shared revenue within their league, whereas we receive around 20%.
That will be possible when the WNBA will make as much money as the NBA.
So, probably never.
That's a joke. They get paid depending on the crowds they can pull in. The money isn't there.
WNBA doesn't get close to as much viewership as the NBA so not deserved.

I don't know what will happen in the future but female athletes can't demand the same amount money without playing at the same level as men.
They do play at the same level what are you talking about dude? Lmao. When it comes to basketball. Some of them are better. Reggie Miller sister use to beat him all through growing up. He is a nba legend and she is a college legend who could have played pro if not for injures ending her sport career at 24.

@TrainingDay what a sad troll
I don't see why not but I think that both male and female athletes are payed absurdly too much.
women avg salary is like 70k bro. For Men it is like 6 million. The highest paid nba guy gets like 40+ million a year. The highest paid girl gets like 100k. How are women overpaid? Anyway: [Kelsey Plum] I’m tired of people thinking that us players are asking for the same type of money as NBA players.. we are asking for the same percentage of revenue shared within our CBA. NBA players receive around 50% of shared revenue within their league, whereas we receive around 20%.
Pls dont be one of those people who believe nba money should for to military people. The NBA and WNBA is a business and has earned that money the same as Amazon or any other big company
A Texas boys team aged 15 and younger beat the US women’s soccer team 5-2.
The NBA should spin off the WNBA as a different company

Not unless more people start watching it. Can pay pay them more when the customer base isn't there.

Lol way to copy and paste there!
I think tit should happen, WNBA shut down the next day
I think that they should start attacking the male NBA players if they don't come out as AntiGenderists. Anyone who does not actively declare that they are AntiGenderists is a misogynist. I am pretty sure that the NBS is loaded with wife beating misogynists

@TrainingDay That sounds reasonable but revenue does not equal profits. It should be tied to what is left after operating costs
The costs to operate a stadium, clean it, secure it light it, staff it won't be extremely different between the WNBA and NBA
Lets say operating costs are as shown below
WNBA 40 million
NBA 120 million
Revenue
WNBA 120 million
NBA 5 billion
operating costs are 33% of revenue
operating costs are 2.5 % of revenue
Do you see why her statement is ignorant?
If male athletes attract more fan (business) they should get paid more.
The reverse is true also,
It’s not necessarily a gender thing.

Off topic but the asker is cute asf
thankss
Women get less because the viewership is smaller.

They would not be asking for something that is impossible. They aren't idiots.
