Inside The NBA is still a highly popular sports show. There are some people who watch just that show, and not the basketball games before the show if you can believe it. It’s going to be around as long as they care to still do the show, and it will still be popular. There are only a handful of people online who complain about Inside The NBA, but it’s a loud minority. It still pulverizes any pregame show in any sport by comparison.
I’m not trying to say that I love the show, and agree with everything they say, because I do think that they’re too negative sometimes about teams, but it’s still the most popular pregame sports show around.
