Lebron haters/non fans are really in a weird spot a person whey been hating on for 20 years is about to retire who’s next to direct it to

An avg guy who was hating from 15 is now 35
He went from rooting against him from his mama crib to coming home from work and taking it out on his wife when he wins

Thread is about superstar player drawing interest and carrying the league, yet you're laughing at me pointing out that Booker is associated with the most popular celeb family in the world.

This sub-forum is bizarro world.

I hate stale outdated arguments

Outside of Bron the players have been personality-less politically correct robots for years.

But the league has replaced that void with media drama. The league will be just fine. Drama, 24/7 kneejerk legacy culture, and player movement will be the new Jordan, Magic, and Bird

Going to be tough… because little white kids and white families like Steph… because they love seeing the 3 point shot

People hate and love lebron depending on the day

Even though booker is nice, Giannis , embiid is good, no young player right now is bringing that stage show to tv..

 

[In The Zone '98]

Bro, there's always somebody willing to put in the work.

Republicans buy sneakers too Women attend NBA games too.

If you attend a game in person next year, it will dawn on you what's being discussed here.

Keep smilie-ing until then, though.

Exactly, this is why the nfl grows the way it does, the nfl markets every team regardless of market. When the playoffs for the nfl started every team had segments on nfl network breaking down the teams and talking about the players and coaches. The nfl doesn’t care about the market your in they care about the product you put on the field

Bingo. I’ve been writing about how fukked up NBA marketing works since 1999. It’s going to come to a head and I’ve always felt that.

I love what the Phoenix Suns owner is doing in making sure that most of their games are televised on free television. You have to make people interested in the team and available to as many eyeballs as possible beyond player star power bringing in viewers.

The fact they could have a discussion and worry about location is trash. So what the game is being played in Denver? They play a good brand of basketball. It doesn’t matter where the location is. Nobody gives a fukk about that in football. Does Gil think people gave a fukk about the city of Seattle when wanting to watch the legion of boom?

NBA needs to change how they promote the game.

 

[Dog Based Gremlin]

Social media and tik toks have taking over young people's mind

NBA is done going forward with that audience

I do think Ant-man is charismatic

 

[VegetasHairline]

It won't happen but it would be nice to see these shows and analysts actually break down the game and discuss the game. NBA media coverage is AWFUL! Always talking narratives and drama.

 

[Conscious Pilot]

Anthony Edwards gonna hold it down. The wheel will continue to spin. Sick of this narrative.

 

[Flex Grossman]

DGAF what the fans want, we’re entering the Jokic era. Get with us or get out the way

I think the midseason tournament is Silvers plan to change the marketing to what you discussed. More team breakdowns, push rivalries, etc. The only flaw is the fans are so heavy into “championship or nothing” for judging a team/players. I don't think fans will care.

 

[mastermind]

I don’t think that is true, one of the big appeals of the nfl is the parity of the league. The truth is the nba needs to do a better job promoting teams instead of players because it will build up the markets that will help sustain the league when the three big markets in la, Boston, New York, Chicago, and Philly are bad. I mean we talk about golden state now but they weren’t always must see tv majority of my life no one was watching the warriors like that because they were terrible

You cant see NFL players.

NBA players are the most famous people on earth.

NBA fans love and love to hate dominant teams And players.

The NBA is fine because they figured out social media before other entities.
