so don't say how well you did against him

Cheryl Miller used to beat Reggie, and both have stated that. Just because shes a girl doesn't mean you would beat her

I torched him on the perimeter , which is what I'd do to her....When I got switched underneath a few times I got dunked on....it's all hypothetical BS because it won't ever happen , but you shouldn't assume that EVERYONE who comes on here is some scrub , white-boy weekend warrior type who doesn't understand the game or how to play it , and just talks out their arse on the internet

What about the OT? Most of them would embarrass LBJ and Kobe.

So you think some guy that played at southeastern or something who, for the sake of argument, is 6'5 and couldn't make it to the D league or overseas can beat her? I would put money down that she could hang with LSU mens players. Nobody on TD can hang with her

He would destroy her. No she couldn't hang with any LSU men's player not even close. Just remember that a rag tag group of guys guards the best women's teams in college, and they dominate them.

OK , but the fact is I am the unknown in your equation(since you know nothing about me or my abilities) , I leave you with this : If the game is one on one to 15 or 20 by 1's AND 2's , then I have the advantage....if everything counted as 1 she would have the advantage

She would block your bank layup when you fall to the right under the tree every time.

She may not be as athletic, but her wingspin is 86. That is a full foot longer than my lanky arse wingspan. You would be able to stop her from just laying it up under the hoop. She is just too tall and mildly coordinated to not win.

I'm 6'4, decently athletic, and have a decent jumper. I may not be able to beat it, but I think I could hang with her.

Maybe before he hit puberty. No way she has any shot against the hall of fame level player.

You sir, and I'll put this nicely, are batshit crazy.

Griner couldn't make a single DIII Community College team. To put her athleticism, or lackthereof, into perspective, she's 6'-8" and has dunked like 4 times. That's like a 15 inch vertical. She's also 200 pounds at 6'-8 so she's basically a string-bean weakling who would get tossed out of the gym by any male who's ever hit a set of weights.

People talking about her length and how many shots she'd block are dumb. Women shoot their shots from their fvcking hips. None of them shoot jumpers like men. I've played ball with countless guys at the Rec who can dunk fairly regularly. That doesn't mean their swatting every dudes shot into the stands.

Any person who started in high school and got back to that kind of shape could hang with Griner.

Did you watch the college three point competition? Anyway I think alot of you are severely underestimating the skills of elite women's basketball players. I played some pick up games with Simone Agustus and Sylvia Fowles, we played against a couple of overseas guys and two UNO basketball players. We swept them! Men are stronger, but if you think stronger makes you a better basketball player then that tells me all that I need to know.

I used to play one on one with a chick in hs who signed with kansas and she was like 6'1, I'm 6'3. I used to beat her, but she was always tough and pretty athletic

Griner would rape you

It does not surprise me that you would say something like this.
