The reason why they're not getting 50% of revenue like the men is because the WNBA loses money every year when you factor operating costs vs profit.

Jolie gets much more money than many male actors because SHE brings more money in. Other male actors that can't bring in as much money as Angelina Jolie would be silly to demand they receive the same amount of money person picture made that she does.

I wouldn’t know Kelsey Plum if she walked in her room right now

Charles Barkley is a super star Basketball player, and Kelsey Plum was out of line to say that to Charles.

I went to a small high school, our girls basketball team was often state champions because they recruited well and had an excellent coach, our boys team was horrible, we had a total of 7 players and our tallest was 6'1. We got destroyed my freshman, sophomore, and junior years. We were just ...horrible. And we would scrimmage the girls team once or twice a week, and we beat the shit out of them by 40-50 points every time..and they were STATE CHAMPIONS...and we went 2-90 over three years in the boys league. In my senior year, it all changed, we had put together a crew of bad asses and we had learned how to play the game, we were tired of losing and we punched back at the boys league hard. We didn't win the championship but we beat teams that were considered some of the best in state and won tournaments no one would have given us a prayer to win. We ended the season 22-7 and got an invite to play in the boys Class C state tourney. We went out first round but still, we had stopped the losing streak and went out with respect. You know what else stopped that year? Scrimmaging the girls team...too many girls with broken jaws, broken arms, and concussions, and they went from losing by 50 to losing by 100. This is why the WNBA will never be a speck on the ass of the NBA in terms of entertainment and intensity. The best a women's team could ever field, could never beat the worst a men's team can field, and God help the girls if they ever played the men's best.....it would send them to the hospital every time.

Agreed, no NBA handouts included to keep them afloat!

*what charles should've said: "if i played in the WNBA I'd win a championship every year until i retire, n if u played in the NBA you'd never make it on the court"*

Be careful Kelsey, you might just end up having to pay to play.

The worst one was Lisa Leslie basically telling the NBA players to give her their money.

lmao if you want the salary to be the percentage of the revenue, the WNBA ‘stars’ will be paying the NBA

I hate people

The first thing I would ask Kelsey is has she read the women's player association agreement with the WNBA, if she had or at least got a summary of it she would know that percentage increase is tied to a specific increase in revenue. Also, alot of the agreements that the WNBA has is tied to the NBA and not by their own market worth along with the NBA giving the WNBA 10 million every year directly. People need to remember that the life time channel drop the WNBA for poor rating. If I was in charge the first thing I would do is make all the teams play in College gyms because playing in NBA arenas is not a good look because of the lack of fans (even with them giving away tickets sell out are few and far between - a packed 1000 seat arena is better than having only 1000 fans in 15000 seat arena). The second thing I would do is look at all the cities that the teams are in and would consider moving teams to more women's basketball friendlier markets where there is a built in audience for woman's basketball. I would even consider folding the city team based concept and basing all the games out of one or two hubs cities (one on the east coast and the other on the west coast - I would actual pick Vegas and Florida). Lastly the fact that they are asking for more pay when WNBA has never made a profit is crazy.

Yet, if Charles was in the WNBA, he would have won a ring every single year he played.

0:36 “Just make it more visible.” Like that’s the issue.

It starts with BEING ENTERTAINING

I try to watch WNBA games once in a while, but I have to admit 10 minutes is the most time I can watch. Charles was very easy on this woman after she disrespected him. At his age, he would probably beat her in a 21 game, 21 to 4. Have some respect woman. Charles is a legend.

Just seen that episode that shit is hilarious

I think it's funny the athletes want profit sharing but never say anything about loss sharing. Wasn't the NBA in the same situation in the 70s that it was difficult to see games? Even playoff games would be shown tape-delayed. Get compelling competition and a strong rivalry worth watching, and people will turn it, AND then the revenue will increase, and they player's salaries will follow.

What a Low blow, geesh the disrespect is out of control...smh

Barkley was a phenomenal player and a beast. He should have responded, "Well honey, if you give people something worth watching like I did, then they'll watch," and dropped the mic before walking off.

That is such a chicken shit move for her to insult Chuck for not winning a championship. All he did was ask her if they could repeat. Frankly, it was probably just a courtesy questions, because I'm quite sure he doesn't really care. It'd be different if Shaq, Jordan, Magic, Isiah, or Bird said that to Chuck. They carried their NBA teams to championships. Few if anyone actually knows who she is. The rest of it is just obvious. You can't share profits that don't exist. They could share debts. Let's see if she'd care to cover some of the WNBA's annual losses. She comes across as pathetic in this interview. Chuck has the class to hold back on her, not because he respects her, but because he knows she couldn't take it if he disrespected her in the same way.

Why do you never hear a WNBA player talk about how they can improve their leagues profit so they can get a pay raise? A lot of them think they are on par with the NBA so they deserve more pay when they don’t do anything to help promote their sport. Also I don’t think she was joking about Sir Charles not winning a championship, she was taking a shot at him and it just shows hot highly they think of themselves when they cannot make their league profitable after 20 plus years. Charles was a beast when he played and is more of a player than any of the WNBA.

Its simple. Ladies are allowed to play NBA. 2 have in the past. Then they get paid like the men. based on talent. "Oh no, cant do that though, not fair"

I’m from the UK, not a huge basketball fan but have casually watched the odd game over 30 years. I know exactly who Charles Barkley is but I couldn’t tell you one WNBA player

At least people went to see Charles play, you won a championship in front of maybe 1000 people

When i was younger they had WNBA games on all the time. They tried to push it so hard. The stands were always empty. These girls make more than i do to play game. I can’t believe how entitled they are.

I would love to see WNBA players to do reaction videos to videos like this one.

Not just a bad league, but also filled with bad thinkers. 😅😂

I have never met a person....not a single one....that has ever purchased a ticket to a WNBA game. Won a pair of tickets as a door prize once. But I gave them away.

It's not just about percentages. The NBA actually pays the mortgage on WNBA venues.

I would like to know why the NBA keeps the WNBA going. Does it make business sence to take huge losses every year?
