I don't think a head to head game will ever happen between the NBA and WNBA. The height difference alone makes it unfair, as the NBA players average almost a full foot taller. Then you add the athleticism, and it's not fair at all. Plus, you have to factor the different size basketballs in each league. While I don't think it would take much for either set of players to adjust, it would take time to get used to the other ball. The last factor that makes it unfair is that the NBA and WNBA seasons happen at different times of the year. So when the NBA players are sharp, the WNBA players are in the off-season. And vice versa. So one team would be rusty, no matter when you choose to have the game.
I could see a skills competition between the two leagues. That is about the only way to level the playing field. If that were the case, the women might win since overall the WNBA players have better fundamentals than the NBA players. Kind of like how WNBA players actually pass! ;)

Will never happen. Men's basketball and women's basketball are two different games. Most WNBA players when asked always say that nothing would come of matching up against the NBA.
The reality is that men and women are physically not equal. At the professional level, men will always be taller, stronger, and faster. I'm not saying this to take anything away from women players.
The women have their own league and their own game that they excel at. Why should they try to play a game outside their own. I wish people would stop trying to say that women's basketball and men's basketball is the same and that the women need to play like the men. The women are doing just fine their way. They've made the game their own and shouldn't have to be held to some standard that only a few hundred men can play at.

I don't think it is a good idea. No offense but I don't think the WNBA players can play in the same level as the NBA players simply becos there is always a difference between men and women. It will also be awkward for the men as there will be lots of unavoidable contacts.

truthfully, look into the sequence, sport 4, Cleveland loses by using a million element sport 3, Cleveland loses by using 3 factors (after a three element shot attempt close to the buzzer) video games a million and a pair of in San Antonio, the Cleveland gamers did no longer have any potential for a mix of motives from the long Detroit sequence and the double OT loss, i think of that the Cleveland gamers flew into San Antonio drained on an analogous time as the Spurs had 8 days to relax up. And, the different reason is that as invoice Russell stated, in the NBA, you could purely play one end of the floor or the different, meaning which you will purely play basically offense or protection. i think of that LeBron got here upon this out by using taking part in Tony Parker in video games One and a pair of as LeBron grew to become out to be the main suitable defender of Tony Parker; even with the undeniable fact that, it took lots potential from LeBron that he, LeBron, did no longer have lots potential for offense. video games 3 and four, LeBron hardly guarded Tony Parker this is what gave LeBron extra potential in those video games. The Spurs want low scoring video games as their emphasis is protection as this is their potential. by way of fact the Spurs as a set deplete maximum of their potential on protection, for this reason the Spurs prefer to play a sluggish 0.5 courtroom offense which ties into the thought which you will purely talk approximately the two offense or protection. The Spurs can run with the main suitable working communities in the NBA while the Spurs could which they did fairly lots in Rounds One and a pair of against severe scoring Denver and Phoenix. i think of that Cleveland is a lot extra appropriate than what human beings think of as on reflection, in spite of the reality that LeBron gave Parker the main problems while LeBron guarded Parker, it became a mistake on reflection to have LeBron look after Parker because it took faraway from LeBron's offense. video games 3 and four made this adjustment faraway from LeBron guarding Parker which made a lots closer sport. Plus video games One and a pair of have been purely 8 or 9 element victories approximately by using the Spurs, so, definite, place by using place, the Spurs have been better than a experience for Cleveland, yet i think of that the two Cleveland is a lot extra appropriate than what they have been given credit for in the 4-0 sweep on an analogous time as the Spurs are lots extra appropriate than the credit they receive.
