No LeBron no Steph injured/hobbled/unavailability for Harden, Embiid etc.
Casuals are never 👎 coming back after the Big F U in the summer.
They’re not gonna have hard cores like me glued either.
Silver wanted the 💰 bag of money 💰 and this what you get:
Slapped together inferior product for consumption and AD revenue.
Turns out that’s a piss poor business mode.
Dude I could not have out it any better. People wanted to put the * on last season’s NBA Finals in the Bubble but what happens when 1/2 the wattage is taken away from a toaster? You get shitty toast. SIlver should know that the league and the teams are not what drives revenue but he never comes out on this side because it’s the last shred of leverage the owners have over the players at this point. The player is the thing.

Fact is, if big market teams aren’t playing, big markets aren’t watching unless it’s must-see. There’s a couple teams left I want to see lose, and Jokic is interesting, but I will glance, not watch. So no must-sees here.
I agree
