Im sorry maybe you should watch a wnba game and then an NBA game... Im sorry you could put the a very below avg college mens team against the best wnba team and the wnba team would get murdered. In fact im sure theres mens high school teams that would crush the wnba.
wow grow up a little? are you kiddin?
WNBA vs NBA... im sorry but everything about the game is different minus the rules. its been 12 years since the wnba was formed and zero thats ZERO head coaches have made it as head coaches in the NBA.
the moral of the story is there's a reason that the wnba will not be around in ten years and the NBA will be global... theres a huge difference between the two. The NBA is the elite of the world and the wnba is like high school basketball.

You seriously need to get a clue. The WNBA is doing better than it ever has been. It's not going anywhere. And frankly, as a basketball fan I'd expect you to be excited that this is the one sport where a professional women's league has been able to stick in this country. There's no way an average college men's team would beat the best team in the WNBA. No way. Some of the women in the WNBA can shoot the lights out. Actually, a lot of them can. The only reason women can't compete with men is because of the physical disadvantage. But an average college men's team has maybe one NBA caliber wing player, if they're lucky, and their tallest player is probably 6'9". That evens the playing field a lot. Considering that WNBA teams are composed of the best female basketball players in the world, even the physical advantage would not be enough for the men to dominate.
Paul Westhead, btw, won a championship coaching the Lakers in the 80s and won a championship coaching the Phoenix Mercury in 2007. Stop talking **** which you clearly know nothing about. I've watched a lot of WNBA games and a lot of NBA games and a lot of college men's games and a lot of college women's game. Because I'm a basketball fan. And the worst basketball, by far, is played by the college men. Probably because the best players only stay one year so they never get to develop any kind of chemistry. The WNBA is the elite of the world too, they just happen to be women instead of men. Oh wait, I forgot, women don't count. Clearly.
Brick, I wasn't commenting on the coaching credentials of Whisenant specifically but rather the assumption that because he's only coached in the WNBA, the only reason he would be considered for an NBA coaching job by the Maloofs is because he's a kiss-***. If the Maloofs want a proven defensive coach, I think winning championships matters. You continue to harp on Reggie's ego-problem while simultaneously citing his NBA background here as proof of his credibility with NBA players. Sure, he's got all sorts of credibility but what's the use of that if he doesn't know how to coach a team and treats the players like school boys? Get me somebody who knows basketball and I don't care where they coached or where they played just what they can do for this team. Credibility comes from winning. Ain't any other way to get it.
Even if you could find a magical hippie colony of kumbalylah singing NBA players willing to sit around the Whisenhant tree smoking some of Brad's weed and absorbing Maloof wisdom, it would all come crumbling down amongst the disdain of laughter of their peers, their fanboys, their posses, and the Charles Barkleys of the world. It is about status as well as money, and playing for the "girls coach" makes you an automatic joke. Sign of misogynism? Sure thing. Way it is? Also sure thing.
