Why Womens Basketball Needs To Lower The Rim To 9 Feet

Why womens basketball should lower the rim to 9 feet.  Does anyone even notice  the W.N.B.A finals are going on? Well they are but I couldn’t tell you who is playing and I don’t care to know. Such is womens basketball. From what I have seen it seems that 10 feet is too high for the rim. It looks like too much of a struggle for many women to make baskets short or long. The game would absolutely flourish with a 9 foot rim. You would see more dunks, more made lay ups, and more shots being made overall. Scoring would undoubtedly go up overall and that is always a good thing. There really is nothing that can make womens basketball popular but it sure would help if the rim was lower. I for one would watch some womens basketball if the rim was 9 feet and scoring was up.
