Women Above The Rim

Women above the rim.  That day has finally arrived. Me personally I've been avercating that the women basketball rim be lowered to 9' 6". That will allow more girls to dunk and to dunk with ease.  But some who are still catering to the male ego, thinks that would give male more opportunity to bash the WNBA and women basketball even more. Saying thinks like the goal is not 10 feet, girls can't really dunk. Me personally I'm a male and I'm really sick of the male ego. I love it when Diana Taurasi (Phoenix Mercury) step out all most from half court and hits a long 3 pointer and the crowd goes crazy.



There is a new day on the horizon. Women will start playing above the rim. There is a girl by the name of Brittney Griner.
(Check out the article in Inside Women Basketball -  http://www.insidewomensbasketball.com/spring2009/)
Goto to page 38-39 and watch the video. Great job Inside Women Baskeball!


I've had the pleasure of watching her play in Houston, Texas.  The girl love to dunk. I think she will raise the level of competition. You will see more and more girls dunking.  Maya Moore made Play Of The Day on ESPN for her dunk when Connecuit University had their Midnight Madness. 

The women game is changing. Changing for the better.  Their playing at a younger age now. More AAU program for girls and speciality training.  Elena Delle Donne of Delaware had a trainer at the age of 5.  I feel this girl will be a pioneer of the game.  (6'5" guard) The game is truly on the move for the better. For all of the doubters who bash women basketball, saying they can't dunk, the game is slow, their not that athletic.  Those days are all gone!

Women college basketball season 2009-2010 and WNBA season 2010 will prove alot of people wrong.So mark my words. 

Women will be playing above the rim!!!!
