Okay, well, I'm officially bored. Agmatbal isn't officially a troll, so I can't sit and formulate insults for him (or her?). The kids are out playing; the dishes aren't washed but the hot water heater is out so I can't do those. And I need to keep the phone tied up so the bill collectors can't get through (I'm using the site on dial-up, you see). So here's an interesting topic I've been cogitating for some time. Anyone for some real dialogue?
The general question is, "What's the difference between the men's game and the women's game?" But I want thoughtful and intelligent observations, not just, "Well women can't shoot," or "Men play a lot more above the rim."
Example: We know that the men run faster, but do they get more fast breaks? Do they handle the fast breaks differently?
I've heard both sides of whether women or men are more physical. What's anyone's opinion?
Are the differences different at various levels? I mean, do high school girls and boys differ in ways that college men and women don't differ?
I'd be interested in hearing comparisons that don't include value judgments. If you just plain don't like womens ball, we don't need to hear that. Just don't comment. If you think women are better or worse (loaded words) then try to figure out the specifics of why and post that, not the judgments.
This is a discussion question, not a vote. What are the differences between men's and women's basketball?

Wow, you use dial up? Cool.
Anyways, good question. In my opinion there a number of subtle factors that many people tend to ignore that account for almost all of the differences we see between the 2 games. Here are 4 that come immediately to m................((((((((((((......
