And he still never flopped or missed games. ala Embid. Yall nikkas got problems on and off the court
embid has had nothing but lower leg injuries, im amazed he can even play with jones fracture injuries on both his feet. its not from a lack of effort, hes had serious lower body injuries plague his career. you have to be careful with him

A lot of new/emerging talents straight up do not get televised on a national stage. Banchero didn't get a nationally televised game until last season. While we understand that the Warriors,Lakers,Celtics,Bucks command top billing....the NBA simply not caring about putting other teams on TV until they've "proven" themselves is a detriment to their overall TV product.

having small market/ 2nd/3rd tier teams playing on regular TV would be a low cost/high reward option for casuals.
Denver, Milwaukee , OKC, Minnesota are all top 10 in national TV games. San Antonio is 11, Memphis is 12. That small market talk has been dead for the last 3-4 years

We can blame Silver but the Spurs started doing it under David Stern's watch and even though he fined them for it once, he never stopped them from doing it permanently before it started spreading to other organizations.
and the nba never explained to fans why they should be good with load management.
