Buying a shirt is buying a shyt.
Too bad that shyt buyer don't find the NBA worth watching.
As a whole, the NBA has lost around 45% of its viewership since 2012.

Too bad that shyt buyer don't find the NBA worth watching.
To add on -
Just because TV ratings remain high for the NFL, it doesn't mean folks are actually watching the game either. As I touched on earlier, for a good portion of those folks they'll have the game on in the background and center a meal/event around it, where they're not actively watching every play but having it on as background setting on a Sunday.
The same doesn't happen for hoops.

To the bolded: surprise! That's a big problem the league has.
As for college, what they do offer is different styles. That's why the tournament doesn't just become a three point shootout.
Y’all knew who they were because they played in college for multiple years, not because they didn’t shoot 3s or had some super exciting style of play that was must see TV

Buying a shirt means they're following the NBA. They're just not all following it by watching games tradtionally on TV. That's all it is.Buying a shirt is buying a shyt.
Too bad that shyt buyer don't find the NBA worth watching.
One of my boys just like that
Bets on the NBA, plays 2K, constantly talking about what's going on around the league but will only watch highlights
It’s a lot of ppl that applies to. Follow everything about the NBA but will rarely ever sit and watch a game.
NBC / Disney / Amazon are banking on the NBA bringing a big boom to their streaming platforms because these tv deals are going to be bringing in much less money in terms of advertising dollars. I just don’t think people will care to sign up to watch NBA games 
Because the product isn't good enough to consume by actually watching the games.

College lacks continuity. With players transferring or freshman leaving after one year or simply not going at all. In the 90's you actually knew players by name on random teams. And it college, the game for the most part, isn't free flowing. And a lot of players can't shoot for shyt.
But styles don't mean shyt, if you don't know the players.
And the NBA marketing players over teams has been going on since Magic and Bird.. and was accelerated with Michael Jordan. The media pays billions so they have a say in how shyt is marketed.

Shyt I watch the grizzlies primarily through my phone on some sketchy website when I get a chance at work. But once I get off I'm just chilling with my wife, check the score on bleacher report. If we win I'll watch the condensed version on YouTube with double speed. So according to these numbers I ain't watched a game since I had cable back in college
This is just something you've created in your own head. It's not reality.Because the product isn't good enough to consume by actually watching the games.
I remember the Thanksgiving NFL games last season, and I was with the fam (20+ people) and even the older heads were sat up in their chairs looking at their phones instead of actually watching the game (some of them gambling). They'd pop their head up every so often if the commentary warranted it, but other than that, they'd be looking and talking about shyt on their phones.
The amount of entertainment we have access to now really puts on a strain on watching games of sport like we used to.
