Kobe said the product is trash too and said these dudes are playing accidental basketball. Is he a hater too? Some of yall cant face the facts lol if ppl dont speak on it, the issue will never get addressed
You know how the 2020's mentality is - if you criticize something, you're hating :manny:

Its not ok to say that. Now are we paying them for their honesty or to pander to the league. ....
I dont know a single flagship show for a league that pays its staff to tell fans not to watch.

“BUt dEy kEep iT reAL.” :childplease:

The nfl product isn't trash at all
what da fukk is that man talking about.
Breh, the NFL had a playoff bound team score 2 f*cking points in their primetime Christmas game :aicmon:
If one of the NBA Christmas games was a blowout, yall be sh*tting all on the NBA on this site.
nah, @NYC Rebel is right. Asking him to comb through years of Inside the NBA videos and and post them is a weak copout response, breh :martin:

Chuck craps on the league all the time. He said that he doesn't watch the games really. Shaq has been on his podcast with Lefkoe and trashed big men like he always does and trashed the style of play in the league (more 3pt shooting, lack of post play, etc)

Skip bayless is a certified hater. He's shytted on Dame, Bron, Westbrook, Curry, Durant, you name it. All the big name players. And he's not critiquing either. He's purposefully trying to be offensive.

Stephen A smith and Kendrick perkins do the same thing. It's hot take after hot take. NBA media has been geared toward hating for YEEEEARS now. It waters the product down. This is an objective fact

EDIT: The ABC half-time show is reliably bad year after year. They talk for 2 mins and load the segment with commercials, then they comeback and hype up one single play from the game and then go back to commercials for 5 minutes until halftime is over
If your going to make a statement during a discussion, at least have the facts to back up your argument if questioned.

But folks don’t do that, and want to push narratives and some of see through that bullsh*t.

People are bringing up inside the nba and that’s fine. Fans be killing the product way worse though. Go to any general basketball post on damn near any platform on social media. I guarantee most posts are negative. JJ brought up parity and that’s a good thing but nba fans will be like congratulations on that one ring, now when will you get the next? If you’re going to single out inside then you need to figure out what else is wrong too.

A random Coli or Twitter poster and an analyst on the NBA’s flagship studio show should not be held to the same standard :skip:

But beyond that, discourse around the NBA in general is negative as shyt and has been for a minute. And the way the NBA’s media partners, including but not only Inside, cover the game has contributed to that. I don’t think that’s a controversial take

And a 6-3 game with the Bears and Seahawks. :scust:

Niqqas want to convince me the NFL product is good.

Flagship shows always celebrate their league.

Wtf?

They are not a value add to the league.
They job is to get ratings, which they do

U be seeing disclaimers all the time

“The opinions of our studio analysts do not reflect the opinions of our networks, broadcasters and sponsors”

Inside the NBA would not be as popular as it is if they sat around caping for players who need a 65 game minimum incentive for awards, or nikkas like Shai who say “The all-star game would be more competitive if they pay us more” etc

These young nikkas in the league don’t even celebrate the league and it’s history themselves, so why would Inside the NBA have to do that?

The way the players represent the league right now is hella disgraceful to the game and it’s fans, and people are tired of NBA capers telling us we have to like this league or we don’t like basketball fr :mjlol:

shyt’s a joke, they still living off the names of nikkas who been affiliated with the NBA for 20 years now, that’s sad
