Dude. She's 6'3. Monte Morris is 6'3. She's a post player. Again, is she going to guard a post on the other team? Is she going to guard DeAndre Kane?
It's a nice PR stunt. That's about it.

Is it bad that I reread this thread in one sitting and chuckled the whole way through?

What I witnessed from "Hilton Magic Legends" last summer will probably keep me from ever watching this tournament again.
Lol oh god.....I'll just say this...relationships are important. We're in a much better position going forward than we were a year ago. Lesson we had to learn the hard, embarrassing way.
Have to give you kudos for sticking with your team and taking responsibility. Wish you the best this summer.
What, so there are people that actually think Megan will be able to hold her own in this tournament? Lol. It’s as if some have never seen a basketball game in their lives.
You must really think highly of cyclonepikers b-ball abilities. Nice of you to compare him to former D1 men’s basketball players.
I played games against the women's team when I was at Iowa State. I am a HORRIBLE excuse for a basketball player and not exactly a great athlete. I could school every single one of the women's players.
Virtually any sport pitting men against women is going to lead to the men winning with ease.
Agreed. I enjoy women’s athletics but they are overmatched in most any athletic competition against men.
Well it’s a good thing that this is not an all women’s team otherwise they would be one-and-done, huh Chief?
Not your fault half the team bailed right before the first game. Hoping you guys have better luck this year. It definitely seems like the players signed up are more "all in" this year.
She shot 70.8% for the season with a very high usage rate. Most of those were in the paint for sure, but she can hit jump shots. I would not be surprised if she's open from defenders sagging against her or in a pick and pop.
I am not sure how effective she would be in this. First - they will be playing with the bigger men's ball that will decrease her shooting percentage. Also if I was advising her I would tell her to not practice with the men's ball on the chance she gets a call for a tryout with a WNBA team. She would not want to be at a disadvantage in the case she would get called. Second - she stated that one of the reasons she was cut was that her perimeter game was not up to where they wanted it.
It’s just a gimmick.
She is a good player but her stats were highly inflated due to quality of her opponent and her size. If she is that good, I am sure she would have been picked up by a WNBA team.
Also I haven’t heard her signing with overseas team during the WNBA offseason. That’s quite unusual considering her pedigree

Can't say her stats were inflated. She had the same competition as everyone else, but she performed better than everyone else.
Don't you know that if a top female athlete can beat random internet men at their sport, then it means they can easily compete with every top male athlete?
This is a joke. I highly doubt the guys are going to be ok with her getting minutes in a competitive game with 2 million dollars on the line. If they're on board then they must've discussed that it was just a PR stunt and she will only get minutes if its a blowout.
