Wasn't it even the case that the national female team had the same base salary as the men? They were just not popular enough to get the same "extras"?

They're subsidised by NBA proper if that's what you mean, yeah. I think it would be great if they got a bunch of 15yr olds from the park/neighborhood court down the street to play them. I'm curious if the fiasco that occured in women's soccer (which is a joy to watch, don't get me wrong) when they were beaten by teenage boys, would reproduce itself.

You could have just as easily meant the lacrosse team, then. But the point stands.
