Who cares if you destroyed a H.S. girls team...

Talking about H.S. girls is like talking about Little League baseball players and comparing them to MLB.

There's a reason why college basketball has about 2-3 really good teams year in and year out who win it all - all the time. There's about 30-40 great female players on the planet and the rest all suck.

There are very few great female basketball players - but the one's that are great -

UConn, Notre Dame, UT - traditionally - could beat your H.S. team. I don't know if they would but they could. Kevin Hart video showed - that random big black guys can't just show up and bully and ball with the elite female players.

The rest of the female basketball world sucks - which is why teams like UConn boat-race them...

I'm assuming you saw her play against girls. I saw Simone Augustus play in games with only guys at the REC multiple times while she attended LSU and she would regularly get owned by average players (by REC standards) that couldn't have possibly played a minute of high school basketball. The talent gap is far wider than most assume.

You're out of your damn mind. All the starters on my high school team played in college. Two of them started at big-time programs in college. We were essentially a college-level team.

So you are saying female college basketball players could beat college-level boys basketball teams?

Because we were a high school boys team of similar skill relative to our competition.

The point was to show how wide the gap is.
