5:43..did she really get mad at him callin women "females"????

This is an insult to ping pong

The fact that what he said is controversial it’s what’s wrong with society. People are afraid of the truth.

He compared Basketball players to ping pong players. He even talked positively about the profession, however people only hear what they want to hear...

I’ve never met a person who watched a single WNBA game

Making 200k a year from a company making -10 million a year is pretty good. Usually a company would layoff every employee and shut down the business.

To quote Bill Burr, 'because you don't sell any f*****g tickets'

I've actually watched more poker tournaments than WNBA games

Watch professional ping pong, that shit is actually crazy

My 9 year old niece plays and loves basketball. Her father is a bulls fan, uncle myself lakers fans. She a golden state fan (curry). My brother tried to get her to watch a WNBA game because he wanted to take her to a game. She instantly said why are they so slow, she asked if it was professional, she said it was boring. She asked her dad to change it and put on Kobe highlights. If young girls can’t stand to watch the WNBA something is wrong.

WNBA players are gonna be big mad when they find out what the top womans ping pong players make .. Thanks MPJ ☠️😂

He ain't wrong. But id rather watch ping pong 🏓

If the best WNBA team can beat the worst NBA team, then give them more money. Until that happens, this debate is dead.

If what he said is controversial then we’re finished as a society.

Ryan Clark giving those "I need to keep my Espn/Disney job" answers.

He didn't say WNBA players are like ping pong players. He said the best, most talented ping pong player doesn't get paid what the best, most talented basketball players make because it's 2 different sports. And one has a global market with billion dollar owners.

Her tweet said, "From his ignorance to him repeatedly referring to women as females." Why does that have her "steaming"? 🤔

As a male, I’m “steamed” about the pay gap in modeling! It’s not fair! 😂

Nba should stop subsiding the wnba, so the women understand what not profitable means... Maybe then theyll stop biting the hand that feeds them...

Super ironic that woman think they are underpaid in this situation, while they are actually overpaid. What would happen if the NBA decides to stop funding the WNBA? Would the WNBA players look back and realize that it was actually fair salarys, or would they still point the finger and say it’s the NBAs fault they don’t have a job?

Ryan Clark doesn't want them to get paid at all. He said, "it's more about the revenue share, it's more about the percentage."

It’s NOT a pay gap between men and women in professional basketball, it’s a matter of getting paid based on the revenue generated from the specific sport. It’s like saying a sales person who sells $10,000 per year should get paid the same as a sales person who sells $10,000,00 per year, because they are both sales people.

Using logic is a social crime in Babylon

He made one of the best points anyone has made. "Just because you're good at something doesn't mean you get paid a lot for it". They might be good players but they don't generate the money. They act like they deserve something just because they're female and the men make a lot.

I’d rather watch paint dry than women bricking layups

Don't care much about the NBA... but Michael Porter... hahah... you are most certainly correct!

Any woman who thinks his remarks were disrespectful refuses to see the reality of it. He was actually being as respectful to them as players as he could possibly be, while also being honest about the economics of it. So of course, women got mad 😅

I've seen 2 people wearing with a wnba jersey in the 25 years they have been a league

Excellent Point On Male Models Compared To Female Models.

I really liked your model comparison at the end and appreciate you adding the clip in the beginning

People are intentionally missing what he said. MPJ said that you can be a professional athlete and still not get paid the same as other professional athletes

I’m a sports 24/7 kinda guy. I watch the WNBA only when Vegas or NY are playing. And that’s if nothing else is on. I watch a ton of NCAA women’s. Iowa, LSU, UCONN and USC.

Jesus... that was like the most reasonable thing I've heard.

He’s absolutely correct, damn I can’t even name one wnba player

Like dude said if they were dunkin on each other it wld be alot better!

I think if they lowered the rim a whole foot, the WNBA would still see just about the same amount of dunks per year.

L W R O E the rims ladies.

He ain't lyin! Isn't the compensation based on the number of eyes watching the sport?

Facts over Feelings.

He said, "lower the rim". 😂 No. They need to jump higher!

The WNBA still exists? 🤔 Ping Pong goes hard though

Please point out what he said that was wrong

I took my 10 year old daughter to a wnba game about 7 years ago in Dallas. The place was empty. We were on the second level and were able to hear the players & coaches talking. Thats how boring & unexciting these things are

What he said isn’t controversial. It’s straight facts🤷🏿‍♂️

4:42 lower the rim in the wnba so more dunks and exciting play happen, or else the same results are going to happen

Liking WNBA players to ping pong players 😂😂😂

I heard all facts

I don't hear men's college basketball and gymnastics athletes complaining that they aren't getting paid millions in NIL money like Angel Reese and Olivia because it's understood that they are the main attractions in their sports and the money they're paid reflects this.

Porter was dead on 🎯

There’s only one women’s league that needs to be around. Bring back the LFL!!!

What's really sad is that people have been telling them to lower the rims for years and they refuse to even try it.

The fact that this subject has been getting addressed and answered the same way for 20+ years is crazy. Like how many times does one have to introduce reality into a world of delusion before its accepted as fact.

The only difference between the WNBA and The NBA , The WNBA players have deeper voices and more tats..

I would be a very offended if I was a ping pong player being compared to WNBA. 😅😂😅

Wow, your point about male models vs female models was eye opening.

Thanks for the video. You caught my eyeballs (view). Props 👍

I’m the biggest basketball person n I have never watched 1 wnba game

Ive watched several wnba games and ive fallen asleep through all of them

The Model Analogy was great

Brianna Stewart and Candace Parker are gonna wanna fight Michael Porter Junior for saying they should lower the rim. The ladies really get their panties in a bunch whenever anyone suggests that.

I agree with him. I love wnba players (go Aces) but the revenues are not the same. The money got to come from somewhere.

He ain’t lying. Lol facts are facts.

Willl cain nailed it

Bruce Lee playing ping pong with nunchucks!!!

The man told the truth !!!!

I'm more offended on behalf of ping pong players than anything else.

Why was i looking at football highlights this whole damn video? Was really throwing me off 😂

It's crazy how they keep repeating that they just want a fair percentage like the men get, but don't seem to grasp that they LOSE money. Then say the men like Porter Jr doesn't know what he's talking about.

I agree with A'Ja Wilson @ 5:50...It is completely outrageous to compare WNBA players to ping pong players. Ping Pong is WAAYYYYY more popular than the WNBA.

They use small balls, use a shorter three point line but don't want to lower the court. Crazy talk. The question is are many of the women that talented?

He said nothing but facts!

I forgot how hard Ryan Clark use to go for them Steelers!…

He spoke the truth just like everyone else been saying. They getting paid to lose the company money… but they want more money? That’s crazy to me. How about you focus on bringing an audience in.

So what's the issue...no stop it Ryan there are women who think they should be paid like men. The problem is the media isn't willing to tell the truth that their brand of basketball isn't exciting and can produce money period. Congratulations to you M. Porter because if you didn't say this even these guys on here wouldn't say the truth.

One word that sums this all up: ECONOMICS

If the WNBA players got “a percentage of the revenue”, then they would all OWE money!

He has a valid point there…

If they get the same percentage they would have to be paying the league back. Are they sure they want 50% revenue split on -10mil?

Its true though. Its like comparing 6th grade football to Varsity football. I have never had one person come tell me they were excited to watch a WNBA game.

MPJ speaks facts.

He really shouldn’t have disrespected ping pong players like that

THE NUMBERS DON'T LIE! THE TRUTH HURTS.

He speaks the truth 🙌

Ping pong is very competitive though 😂

He said the truth....

WNBA players should get a bigger percentage of profits, like 30%. So $0 x 0.30 = $0. So Brave 🎉

We're still talking about this

"The respect of their crap" indeed.

That wnba player who did that interview saying it's the most competitive league in the world needs to be tested. 🤨

I think he meant if he was to play in a WNBA game would be like a pingpong game 😂

Everything has been well explained. The explanation doesn’t get clearer than that. I know the women feel away bout this topic but that’s life. Physical Sports was introduced by men. Physical sports will always be dominated by men.

Back in the day the WNBA got Super Publicity when the world heard that Lisa Leslie Dunked in a game…! I don’t know why they didn’t make the correlation because it’s obvious for Basketball Dunking & Great shooting gets the fan’s attention…!

MPJ spoke 100% facts and ppl can’t handle the truth

WNBA is NBA's daddy's little girl...the father is spoiling her too much and and she thinks she understands everything.

So if the revenue sharing theory holds the salary for each player should be around -$69,444.00 (10M deficit/144 players). He didn't say women's basketball was like ping pong, he said that they're talented too but similarly they don't generate a lot of revenue and can't expect to be paid as much as someone who does. I know this is a hot button issue but sometimes people need to take a breath a look at exactly what's being said, maybe he didn't articulate in a way people liked but I don't think he meant to disrespect. anyone.

So, at 5:50, Janae Sims is mad that MPJ is calling women "females"?! Aren't women females? Has the term "female" been deprecated while I was eating lunch? What the hell, man. This world is gone super sensitive.

The funny thing is there’s a video of a guy asking a bunch of women to name their favorite WNBA team and they couldn’t name a single one (even from their own city). I doubt that Alexis from Vegas is any different

They don’t need auto lower the rim.. do away with it and invest more into a JV/Farm men’s league.

Unfortunately there are no real outlets for women in professional team sports and there never will be. So I think most women athletes will just strive to attain the highest competitive levels they can in college. This certainly makes the college game that much more fun to watch AND the ladies can complete their education at the end of the day.

What made the women mad was that he compared them to ping pong players. It’s a dumb comparison but I get what he’s saying. Or a least what he is trying to say. The WNBA problem has very little to do with the talent & skills. It’s there but the problems are 1. Not very entertaining. They got some really good players but we don’t see scoring 40 and 50 points as often like some of the NBA players. I don’t really care to see them dunking like other people do. 2. WNBA does a horrible job of marketing the best players. The fact that they talk about and show Caitlyn Clark and Angel Reese more than a Aja Wilson or Breanna Steward is kinda bad. 3. The games are being played in the summer when no NBA or NFL is going on. So those same kids y’all target to watch the game are mostly playing themselves. Because the league does an awful job marketing players and teams. Not a lot of people are interested in going to a game. Also it took the NBA a while to get to where they at now. Their first 25 years wasn’t great but they keep improving the game. WNBA gotta do more to improve their games and do better job with promotion of the teams and most importantly the players. How can you bring fans the game if they don’t know or have an idea on who is playing. It’s not easy but they gotta change the perception of the WNBA cuz rn it’s bad.
