Hey ladies: are you watching the #NBA, trying to have a good time, but the guy next to you at the bar won't stop asking you to explain the difference between the pro and college game as some sort of test of knowledge to prove you're a #RealFan?

This is ESPN's headline:

Adam Silver: WNBA players can expect 'big increase' in salaries

They could just as easily say:

Adam Silver: NBA will not agree to share revenue with women the way they share revenue with men.

Both headlines fit what he said.

Silver: WNBA salaries need big but fixed increase

During an appearance Tuesday on the "Today Show," NBA commissioner Adam Silver said that WNBA players will get a "big increase" in salaries in their new collective bargaining agreement, and that "they...

Incredibly, Rockets-Thunder is NBC's second-straight regular season NBA game to go double-OT. The last ever regular season game of the original run -- Lakers-Blazers in April '02 -- went 2OT.

That one stings, but I’m actually encouraged at the FVV-less squad.

A clear big three has emerged. They need some more chemistry and a healthy DFS.

Alperen Sengun's the only player in NBA history to have at least 39 points, 11 rebounds, and 7 assists in his team's season opener.

Justin Russo @flybyknite.bsky.social · 2d

39-11-7 for Sengun. My word.

Durant was gonna make a bad decision at the end of an overtime if it was the last thing he did

houston ain’t looking great in OT, but a bright spot: the last time that steven adams played this much in a game, it was during the 2022-23 season (three seasons ago). always good to see a big fella get back!

Important to remember that just because it *looks* different at those sizes, and it inevitably will, doesn't mean it's bad

What are you guys asking Adam Silver for this season? I really want a better Warriors whistle but I’ll be satisfied if I wake up tomorrow morning and find a guarantee that Draymond won’t get enough techs to get suspended under my NBA Tree.

On the bright side: one more sleep until the NBA season starts.
