Who cares.
You do since you took the time to click and then write a comment. The better question is who cares about the all-star game, this should be more interesting because at least the women will try.
After the 3 on 3, they should sit down for some Econ 101.
Because their “strike” makes absolutely no sense.
There is absolutely no evidence that there is demand to support higher salaries, one of the two leagues that did employ them went bankrupt and their solution is to boycott the only remaining league willing to pay them.
Who is advising them and, more importantly, why are they listening to them?
