Candace Parker Discusses WNBA Future + Ernie & Chuck Talk College Football Playoffs | The Steam Room

[@Zee.92]

The fact Chuck doesn’t know the answering machine number after 102 episodes is amazingly funny lol😅

[@nikie224]

Great expansive discussion! Love CP! One of the best to ever do it! My goodness, the injuries.... I hear her on wanting to be healthy in her post playing years....Selfishly I'm hoping for a speedy recovery, great offseason prep and she turns back the hands of time for one more run next year!

[@remys7543]

45:34 The "i know the difference between large and extra large, woman!" part, you knew Chuckster roast mode in on all the time tho, 😅😂🤣 Stay being Charles Barkley, more success to The Steam Room podcast.

[@withalittlehelpfrom3]

Always good to see the real CP3.

chuck and shaq need a podcast

[@justinemerson1340]

1-12 all deserve to get into the college football playoffs. Too bad they didn't expand sooner. In 1990 when the NFL expanded to 12 team playoffs it made the league better.

[@sabrinasolomon6387]

I love Shaq, but I've laughed for years that he is big, insecure, loveable teddy bear. 🤣🤣🤣

[@nbagoats4819]

He's wearing Jordan brand.

[@aliali-ce3yf]

The WNBA needs a good storyline to boost its profile, like how the Bird vs Magic rivalry saved the NBA in the 80s.

[@dachellejohnson1530]

There was a similar storyline this season. The two superteams meeting in the finals. Stewie winning regular season MVP over A'ja.

Ahh yes, when in doubt and you have an inferior product make sure race relations are enflamed (CNN playbook)

[@emailitzs641]

Because of feminism and men competing with women nobody will care about women’s sports because most men, are indifferent to women now through feminism and women acting like men

[@dylanbelcher2457]

@@dachellejohnson1530 Seriously. And have any of these folks been watching the Aces this decade? It's like they're playing a completely different game.

[@pineapplegamer6986]

They need someone as electrifying and dominant like Bird, Magic, MJ, or Lebron. And, this is the important one, not be political, just play basketball. I think Caitlyn Clark and JuJu Watkins could solve this problem if they get into the WNBA

[@j.l.ferguson34]

CP the Don of Women's basketball growth

[@ndnd7614]

The problem is WNBA is not a good product because of the slow scoring pace and no dunks. They could solve this easily by lowering the rim but WNBA has too much ego to do that for some reason

[@bilindabutcher8913]

Honestly they don't need that they just need more marketing

[@JJ_5289]

The regulation womens volleyball net is 7.5 inches lower than the mens net. It makes the womens game more exciting. It would help make the wnba more exciting if theyd be willing to try an adjustment

[@kohenemoore]

They don't want to do it because it would be a process of lowering it across every level of play. They grow up playing on a 10 foot hoop and develop muscle memory for 10 feet from a child. At a professional level They would literally have to adjust and develop a new jumper and be expected to perform at a high level.

[@joemoneymondays]

This sounds really dumb. The league is growing without that bs

[@MatthewBreck]

Well this is a dumb comment

[@Stantonthestandardstanding]

Beautiful Candace, I love your face and your smile. So FYNE.

[@datsapaddlin]

The WNBA players are talented but that league woulda been canceled if not for the NBA. Unless they get someone from the NBA to pull a Juwanna Mann it’s not gonna get top tier attention.

[@lakersin556]

You couldn't guard or score on any of those women. Now dats a paddlin. 😂

[@aliali-ce3yf]

If it weren't for revenue sharing in the NBA, a lot of NBA franchises would be in serious financial trouble.

[@joemoneymondays]

It's already on its way to up. Stop being weird

[@dachellejohnson1530]

Yet the NBA still has enough money to give Jaylen Brown 300+ million. No one is in your pockets bro.

[@ayookusanya5437]

Next call please 😂😂😂

[@cuteandviolentchibi]

There lack of funding and marketing for WNBA. They make little process as years goes but it gonna take awhile to be as big as MNBA.

[@ImTheHenster]

Where's the straight wnba players 🤔

[@gummybeer119]

Like a third of the league, they exist. 😅😅

[@akinbobolaz]

I like Candice Parker

[@deanthechamp5669]

What is the WNBA, never heard of it

[@droheadd]

Man i love Candice! But she pulled a D Rose: "im just worried bout life after ball" :( 😢 ....its a game of basketball for cryin out loud, but what do i know, i never played professional like theyll always say..i just know d rose once all those injuries took over him, he gave up and decided to focus on his life and put ball 3rd or 4th in his life and he fell off..idk anything bout wnba or Candice' age so dont mind me

[@gummybeer119]

Candace has had 8 knee surgeries. And other surgeries too, most recently her foot. I want her to play one more SO BAD. But obviously I also want her to be able to walk and run with her kids, without pain. It's easy to understand, especially after watching her new doc. She's in pain. 😢

[@Landonio]

Roll Tide!

I have a genius Idea to increase WNBA revenue... convince taylor Swift to buy a WNBA team.

[@Shdjdjxbdksk]

The WNBA is tragic.

[@frankcuevas5155]

¿Does leeching from the NBA constitutes a future? Asking for a friend

[@thehylianloach9473]

Oh no! That poor multi-billion dollar organization has to spend some money on woman's teams, how will they every survive? Hopefully you'll do your part and do some unpaid volunteer time for the NBA to help prop those poor millionaires in the league up.

[@dachellejohnson1530]

Yet the NBA is still a billion dollar league. You probably just asked someone to borrow $50 until payday. Didn't know the NBA was in the public pockets. You should change your banking password.

[@alcelobo9114]

​@@thehylianloach9473Are you all right? His question is pretty valid. WNBA is a charity project right now. Until they could survive without outside money, their "future" is just an illusion.

[@frankcuevas5155]

@@thehylianloach9473 I'm not outraged by the NBA backing. I'm annoyed at a professional sports league that hasn't turned profitable in 26 years of operation. And disgusted by the players unwillingness to try new things (like lowering the rims) to turn the sport into something marginally watchable.

[@arenlarken8647]

@@thehylianloach9473 Hopefully women, who make up the majority of people in the USA start supporting the WNBA...instead of throwing billions of dollars at Karadashians. Why on earth should WNBA be subsidised???? If i sing at the local cofee shop, and Beyonce sing in front of a stadium, should i be payed the same since we both are "singers"???
