You can still have “inside the nba” show. You don’t need to have it following a basketball game. Start it at 1030 eastern. People are gonna tune in immediately following a game

They won't have access to the highlight package and I doubt Silver would let them have it because Amazon will probably want to build up their own pre and post game show.

There's a number Amazon could give tnt so that it's a seamless transition. Might let zas a chance to save face.

No disrespect ya nikkas sounding hella broke and old right now. The peacock shyt is 8 dollars a month. That’s less than a Crunchyroll subscription like what are we doing here man?

Man fr.

This morning I went into my PayPal to cancel it because I never use it …saw that it was 7.99 a month and kept it rockin .. forgot all about the nba shyt


Peacock 7. 99 and everyone on earth got Prime ..this ain’t a big deal

 

[FakeNews]

Well Peacock hit me up saying there is a price increase starting in August But the cool thing about Peacock is they always have promo deals. Peacock isn't that bad it was terrible at first, but they stepped it up

WBD need to take that 20 billy they saved and make HBO great again

Before making its official announcement, the NBA sent TNT its reasons for rejecting the broadcasters’ matching proposal, according to sources briefed on the interactions between the league and the network. The NBA told TNT Sports it was rejecting its offer for three main reasons.

First, TNT wanted to put all of its games on its cable network and its streaming service, Max, whereas Amazon is just a streaming service. Second, the NBA believes Amazon’s reach is greater. Third, Amazon offered to pay in full its first three years, while Warner Bros. Discovery, which is in debt, provided a three-year line of credit.

I barely watch the NBA these days. The product is garbage. Inside the NBA and the TNT crews kept me watching some games.

I'll probably be more of a casual fan if that after they're gone

Good the league and the convoys around it needs less of you miserable nikkas lurking around...Hopefully you pack it up right along with barkley

Mans stick around three hours to watch nikkas who don't know wtf they talking about

Need peacock & prime this isn't good for consumers, it's more costly for consumer. Not to mention you still need a way to access disney/espn. So basically nba just did what the nfl did sold it's packages to the highest bidders while forcing their consumers into multiple different services. This is anti consumer when you also consider Amazon keeps upping their prices

You needed "a way to acces" TNT/ESPN already in their package so what are you saying? More people alrwsy have prime than they do ESPN and TNT combined lmao

The league now has games on 7 days a week which they didn't have before which means more content offering for the audience and they're also including NBC which doesn't require cable fees ....none of the shyt you're saying has any accuracy

[Left.A1]

I was able to watch every game I wanted to before and I'll be able to do the same going forward. Maybe I'm missing something but it seems like there will be even more games on broadcast television than before?

These nikkas just want to be victims in here they don't even know what they mad at

 

[Left.A1]

People celebrating getting basic mid to terrible corporate nba coverage over this
