    I bet she's already punched her ticket to the WNBA.

    I wonder if you will ever see a female player in the NBA. Iirc cuban was talking about giving Griner a look w/ the mavs. I think that's the closest we've come to seeing it - possibly the closest we will.

    I dunno; I think a speedster small PG with range could make it. I mean, they can't be worse than Steve Blake.

    I don't see why not? It's the NBA... it gives no specification to gender... only the head people gave WNBA a gender... which is stupid unto itself.

    The Blazers will have the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, and 5th picks....we will pass up the next big player who will go the Bulls at number 6

    I do think at this point it is a talent situation and I'm not sure there have been any female basketball stars who could earn significant minutes in the league, then again have any of them been given a chance? What is the real obstacle?
