This is a great idea. 3v3 builds focus for quick pick & roll or scissors plays to keep defensive reaction sharp, but also forces you to stay in running shape because it's a lot of transition ball. And these are WNBA stars playing so it's a fun mix up of players who aren't usually together. Athletes playing here will be better next season. Loving it so far.
@@gothamtyler gald you enjoying it, i am too. But, they will never lower the goal that is an insane thing to even request cause think about it: since youth these women have been playing on a 10 ft goal. That would dramatic change every shot they take in a game just so people could potentially see a little rim shaking. Dunking just isn't exciting enough to want that huge of a change to the game.
I love the veterans passing to the young players to get the winning basket. Arike also did that the night before...And AT has a swagger that is unmatched. She has body language down pat.
this was a embarrassing loss for The Phantom BC. i know Marina Mabrey was just injured recently and is probably what messed up the rotation with the team with her injury but my goodness 🤦♂ Phantom BC women, that was bad. hopefully The Phantom BC gets it together soon and fast. The Laces BC were elite and dominant. Alyssa Thomas, Kayla Mcbride, Tiffany Hayes, Kate Martin and Stefanie Dolson all performed very well on the floor. The Laces women were Fantastic.
I will say one thing that I love about women's ball and that is that both teams always, for the most part, play hard til the last second, regardless of the score. It annoys me so much in the NBA that when the game is decided, that the players do not play in the last minute but stand around dribbling. They just walk the ball and turn it over via shot clock violation, and the other team does the same. I understand that there is no need to risk injury in the final minute, but at the very least, just run a conservative play or at least take a shot- do something instead of standing around for an entire possession or minute of every game.
You must be out of your mind bud. This league will find out after 3 months what they got themselves into lol. Arena holds 709 people and the league is 9 weeks.. millions of dollars already put out and where do you see any profits? Please use your brain when you say stuff like this! How you gonna take the same girls who lost you millions for the past years and think something’s gonna change?? With less fans?
@heymikemike3 What year is it where you are? Streamers are looking for content. This 3x3 women's tournamount is sports content for streamers and very affordable for them. Btw, all men's professional sports leagues make most of their money from TV deals and most don't pay to build their own stadiums. You're just easily fooled that men's pro sports make money.
@@heymikemike3 It’s not about filling tens of thousands of seats in an arena. This is a new format and it’s much more of a digital world now with streaming and its ads. I don’t see Unrivaled flying their teams all over the States and renting expensive arenas and paying crews to build up and tear down production. And I don’t see 20,000 fans flying to Florida either. Digital world, now. Have to think differently.
Maybe because your looking at the highlights, you should know that the highlights never show the full picture. Also there isn't much defense to be played when the game is going so fast
It’s because they’re not good defenders 😂 Ionescu can’t check a broom stick. Granted highlights instead of full game makes it look more entertaining but watching full game you’ll see how bad each of them are defensively. Ionescu doesn’t have help defense to bail her out and BG moves like she has cement in her kicks
I didn’t know streaming pays the salaries of the WNBA and nba. Such foolishness out and the sky thinking. Steamers giving up their money to pay for the unrivaled league. ROTF
“ Unrivaled is a new 3-on-3 women's professional basketball league where six teams, with each six players on each squad, compete for the title. The league will feature 36 WNBA players, including the two co-founders, whose teams will play against each other on opening night.”
anyone else noticing the two big guys .. Griner and Reese .. both lost the games they were supposed to be the stars of.. thr is no stardom there... instead they made bigger fools of themselves.. and did a good job of it.
You know Reese still got a double double......just as she did in college.....just as she averaged her rookie yr. Try a different method to hate lil guy🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
There are no empty seats. You are blind and another with an agenda. However, the majority of the fans are on the opposite side, which the camera angles don’t cover except during stoppages.
Ladies of the W created their own league to help players earn more $ domestically without risky overseas play. Also likely to practice their skills, continued exposure to their sport, entertainment, I mean there's lots of reasons

Surrounding AT with shooters = winning strategy
I hope she goes to a championship team for once
Not gonna lie.....I like this.
Me too I still wish there's a league where they lower the rim..I think these women would bang TF out!

Really cool to see folks you wouldn't normally see on the same team hooping

lol Jackie is injured too but her team didn’t lose this badly.

@@lavonnealexander6936 more players on the Phantom are injured correct?
What I appreciate is that there are people I like on both teams. All of them really. 😊

I’m only here for Money Martin!!! 🔥🔥🔥
We gotta regroup Phantom my goodness Miami on a Friday night special huh
4:36 Kate Martin for the win!!!
Need that jersey
How come these games aren't on Unrivaled TH-cam Channel like the first two?
McBride was feeling it🔥
McBride was feeling it
They had no answer for her...none
Kate Martin's off season workouts have been paying off!
It was all great. I’m investing.
Yeah put me down for 50 percent for 1,000. When do I get my check?
Phantom to regroup! Hopefully Mabrey to get healthy soon.
Very solid game, Laces. Everyone contributed.
Laces went crazy.
I will say though, Phantom defensive rotations were so off.
Money Martin for the win! Good for her!!! 👏 👏 🏀
I think we need more lighting. It’s so dark.
They cant afford it
Don't want to show that more people watch at the YMCA. They trippin.....
Its just enough lighting for the 50 people in the crowd.
This league gonna win in profit, nine years ahead of the WNBA. Without lowering the goal.

@@heymikemike3 You do realize the MNBA and WNBA do not make their money off of tickets sold, right? Please tell me you know this.
Well it's owned by the players and the TV deal is what brings in most of the money which they don't have to share with owners @@heymikemike3
1:31 Clean 😍
Laces might be the team to beat! They were hitting the 3’s! Nice game though massive blowout!
Speed is the key to everything in this league. A lot of potential. 🎉
Ugh i love Phantom and will be rooting for them no doubt but they have to put up a better performance than that; i believe in us
Sabrina satou and bg got exposed badly
I still got phantom winning it all if they figure out they chemistry and defensive rotations
They don't have the defense to win it all. Their shots will start falling but they still won't be able to get a stop
I'm not mad at the 3v3.
I hope they make money but as a sports fan i didnt even know the season started
Dunk that Satouuuu!!!
aight ghosties, we gonna have a short memory and go next
Kate Martin! 🔥🔥
How is the 4th quarter goal score determined?
Leaders' Score + 11
@WillieRayPR thank you
I hope Phantom does better next game! I'd love to see BG thrive.
McBride just may be the second best player in the WNBA behind Caitlyn
❤❤❤ hope next time CC will join😊
Don't care
The Ionescu led Phantom get ghosted by Money Martin and Leather n Lace... 😂
good luck to the rest of em. Laces baby
McBride 🔥. Let’s go kate!
What’s this league? NBA should do sum like this too
Kate with the double double 👍
Then #3/#4 Breanna Stewart then Aja Wilson?
WTG Lace and Kate!
Kate!!!
legit double double
Blowoutttt
Katie Lou is a liability for the Phantoms :/ she gets so exploited
Where are the cameras/fans ?
Small arena
Kate!!!
Money Martin MVP!
Congrats to Kate Martin.
She played well! Was proud of her!
Maybe I need to watch the full game. This format doesn't seem to have any defense; or, am I wrong because I am only looking at highlights?
Maybe because your looking at the highlights, you should know that the highlights never show the full picture. Also there isn't much defense to be played when the game is going so fast
@omotayosatuyi252 I said that.
It’s different because the lack of bodies on the floor, but there’s plenty of blocks and steals. I just see a distinct strategy.
There was good defense from Laces. Phantom not so much
It’s because they’re not good defenders 😂 Ionescu can’t check a broom stick. Granted highlights instead of full game makes it look more entertaining but watching full game you’ll see how bad each of them are defensively. Ionescu doesn’t have help defense to bail her out and BG moves like she has cement in her kicks
I only really clicked on this video because of Kate Martin!

Wonder why you specifically targeted them
@@grammysworld5449 we all know why just as we know what they'll deny
They didn’t make fools of themselves
This just looked creepy with little light and empty seats
Seems to be all hype, no one cares.
It was sold out, no empty seats
There were no empty seats.
There’s no empty seats, that’s a backdrop

THIS ICE CUBE BIG 3 .
What's the point of this game?
high level hoops. What's the point of any basketball, football, baseball game?
Ladies of the W created their own league to help players earn more $ domestically without risky overseas play. Also likely to practice their skills, continued exposure to their sport, entertainment, I mean there's lots of reasons
It's fun. Piss off
Play basketball; watch basketball; earn money; have fun.
Offseason league to stay in shape and not go overseas! Plus it’s higher salaries
LOL, such an exciting atmosphere with 100 fans, lol
Talk about biased they try to make it look like they made every shot what a joke
That's what highlights do casual
do you not know what highlights are?
Wow that crowd is huge! Sellout! It must be loud in that stadium!
