In 1977, the NBA Draft consisted of 10 rounds (while some sources say 8 or 170 picks total), which teams and fans viewed as unnecessarily long and ridiculous. According to multiple reports, the Lakers used late-round picks to select the cartoon character Scooby-Doo and a wooden chair that was allegedly owned by Jerry West’s mother or the one he sat in. Both selections were rejected by the NBA. The league did not shorten the draft to its current format until 1989, nearly a decade later.

Channing Crowder Calls Out ESPN: “Focus on WNBA Hoops, Not Tabloid Drama”

"First it was Caitlin Clark versus Angel Reese, now it's Caitlin Clark versus the league because they're fouling hard and now she has a security guard. Like, why aren't we talking about the game? Why aren't we talking about the game like we talk about the NBA?"

"Why are we looking at a 9, 2 and 2 player every time I look at ESPN? I understand what Sophie is doing to try to protect her teammate, but that's not what the league is based around."

"Nobody in the NBA was saying, 'Oh, I love Udonis Haslem' he wasn't making headlines for protecting Dwyane Wade. So why is Sophie Cunningham on every single TV screen talking about the WNBA?"
