You can’t compare the NBA ratings to soccer and NHL because the NBA ratings was high as hell a long time ago but now those days are gone and I told you why that’s happening. The NBA is shooting their selves in the foot.
Every year seems like they focus on NBA ratings. Hockey and MLB are trash af and have embarrassingly low ass ratings. When it's world series time they always talk about how their ratings are horrible. Not even gonna talk about the NHL. NBA is clearly second behind the NFL and it's been like that for a few decades now so that's perfectly fine cuz no one is gonna dethrone the NFL fuck no. NBA is still getting record breaking Tv deals and MLB is still paying record breaking contracts to players. Shit is fine the way it is, none of these leagues are folding. But they always talk shit about the NBA cuz its a gang of niggaz that make up 95% of the league.
Every generation only has 2 or 3 stars. Marketing makes you think okay players are stars. The NBA HoF has no quality control either.The NBA is a star league and half of their games are going to be missing the star
I remember playing rec league in middle school. Back then a j was midrange and I was money from 15-18ft. I remember 1 game I had an open lane and I opted for a midrange J... That I hit!!! Going back down the court all I heard was "That was a bad shot!!! I dont care if you made it, take that inside!!!" That was like 95-96 and that mentality don't exist no more.
Yeah but there is stakes with only 17 games. One game a week. There’s always key matchups. NBA these games don’t matter and truthfully I don’t care about NBA until NFL is over.
This right here, all they care about is scoring more points. So lets shoot as many 3s as possible before the game ends, to see who scored more…that’s the game today
That’s been taken out of game. The game is less creative, less dimensional, simpler, softer, soulless….i guess they think that’s good

These are all hit pieces.
Knicks generate ova 5 billion a yr.. they’ve been a shitty product for 5 decades.. that right there should show you how something garbage can generate billions.. never let something generating money means the product is naturally good..there’s quite a few billion dollar making movies that are pure ass
I aint even on no Umar shit, but goddamn this is fuckin gold!!!
The point is not about generating money! The point is ratings don’t matter and it’s a farce. They not even calculating it right lol lol
lol these articles are for geeks and nerds to talk about fugazi numbers. And then they get fans to talk about this and that about the players and product . Shit is retarded! A poster posted earlier that the nfl is must see tv lol whaaaaaattt! The refs can’t even get pass interference right on a week to week basis!! But yep it’s must see tv yea ok lol lol…
If they want to solve the nba problem then all they need to do is get rid of this salary cap bullshit!! Get rid of these idiotic restrictions on teams and players!!! That would force teams that can’t pay players like the rich teams to have better scouting and development programs to compete! That would force teams to be innovative to compete. Force teams to actually hire competent coaches to compete. These front offices are lazy and don’t know what they are doing. Stop putting it all on the players. Now the market would dictate what players are paid what! Stop pacifying these players. If you don’t develop well you don’t get paid. If these teams have poor infrastructure then the players leave. These teams in the nva get guaranteed money from these deals no matter what product they put on the floor!! Imagine running a business and no matter what fuck ups you do; you know you getting 100-200 plus million every year no matter what!!! That’s the real problem…
This here explains it all, the game is all about just shooting 3's. What made it great was when you seen dudes displaying their athletic ability, that's pretty much gone. Like you said, I've seen so many fast breaks where dudes pass up a layup and shoot a 3. Then you have load management which is out of control. Smh!
NFL is on 3 times a week Sun, Monday and Thursday.
well get rid of the 3 then...
football dominates because its the least amount of games played of all major sports and its the most betted sport in america; thats it; product is still completely shit!! IF baseball and or Basketball only played 17 games; their ratings would be just as high if not more than football; has nothing to do with the product or what level it starts on...
Football also was 1 of the few leagues where a team could be shit one yr and than be competitive the next yr, or you could be great 1 yr and be garbage the next.. the unpredictable factor of who could win a chip also was a big factor. Outside of the pats diff teams were winning during a 30 yr span . Prior to chiefs winning chips they were either an early playoff loser or not making it at all.. NFL had that competitive side.. there's tons of stars on diff teams.. look at how the lions were loser for yrs to now are Superbowl contenders.. this why NFL gets it props.. NFL fans get tired of certain B's things like favoritism calls for chiefs.. football has its negatives but at the end it's way more entertaining to NBA.. that's what it comes down to
