I think the problem with the WNBA is that they're all really good, and there's little separation. So no dynasties. You don't have a New York Yankees, for example. Or a Big Red Machine.
In WCBB, you see tremendous teams that power through their schedules. And when it comes to the Elite Eight, or Final Four, or the championship, there is tremendous excitement.
MCBB hasn't been interesting for many years, because 1) no one knows the rosters- any player worth his salt is gone in a year; and 2) they don't stick around long enough to gell as a team, or to learn the fundamentals. I think that's why there are so many excellent foreign players in the NBA- they learn from early teenage how to play the game as semi-pros and then pros. Here we go from high school to putting in the obligatory year in college. Then straight to the pros where they play games most of the time, rather than train.
The NBA holds little attraction either. Is it me? Or is anyone else bored with the game in which everyone clears out, and one guy goes one-on-one, puts up a shot, no one rebounds, and they all jog to the other end of the court where the process is repeated?
It's what makes Geno's teams so amazing: he drills them in the fundamentals- passing, rebounding, assists, fast transition, with no one taking off a single play. And because the women don't play "above the rim," it's all like soccer, in which ball movement is all-important.
So unless a UConn player is on the court, or a particularly interesting star from elsewhere, I'm not hugely aware of the WNBA.
