I don't even get the appeal of the big 3. It's a league full of washed up former C level NBA players. I don't even like watching washed up dudes in the NBA let alone 10 years after they retire.
I feel the same way, diminished athleticism and skillset. For nba its still competition, regardless if it's just old heads rn. That isn't the end goal though they have lowered the age, it's competition they just don't pay as well

It’s the wrestling argument

You can be beat NASCAR in ratings but you’re still WWE

WWE makes like 470 million a year and that was considered a crazy increase

NASCAR got 800 a year

Big3 still a secondary basketball league to advertisers no matter how unfair it is

Also note that this is only in the US, and not 82*30 games.

XFL averaged like 4 times more than that and it’s a burning cash.

Apples and oranges, that’s is.

XFL HAS EIGHT 51 MAN ROSTERS
VS THE BIG3S TWELVE 5 MAN ROSTERS.

BIG COST DIFFERENCE

@CHICAGO Since you are capping for the Big 3 so much, Can you name 3 teams in the Big 3? What are those teams logos and city they play for? Who are there star players?

You see this is why ESPN doesn't cover the Big 3. Why the fukk would the average care about the highlights of the Power vs. the Killer 3's? What city are those teams from? Why would a fan care about Donte Green vs. Jodie Meeks shootout? The NHL doesn't have this problem because it has a consistent story. If Sportscenter leads off with Pittsburgh Penguins vs. Washington Capitals, everyone knows what city they are from. Some fans can even list the star players for that team. When Sportscenter shows the highlights for that game next year, the fans will still know the City and stars for those teams.

You don't know the cost differences. I've googled and can't find any revenue or financial reports. What I do see are stories about Ice Cube selling NFTs for "ownership stakes" in teams, suing foreign investors for allegedly not providing funding, and going on a media tour begging right wing moguls to give him money. None of which sounds promising or like this is a stable league that will last.

I'm not obligated to support anything just because a black person is behind it. The product sucks and the owners are pieces of shyt. I'll pass.

Well if they’re doing so good why is Cube acting like the NBA owes him something?

Cube is one of my favorite actors/rappers ever but seeing him become a puppet for right wing republicans is disgusting. Those racist whites just need a black face to spread their hate and propaganda.:hhh:

And assuming it grows, what is it supposed to become?

I need a blueprint for success. What is it supposed to be? We've seen what Overtime Elite is supposed to be. We've seen what the G League Ignite is supposed to be. Even the Big Baller League had a mission (went about it horribly but there was a goal).

The Big 3 with the NBA's help is supposed to be what? I remember early on in The Big 3 when they'd hit up streetball courts and promote, head over to indoor events and promote. They don't even do that now and that's the chief audience you need to attract. Everyone else is either at the beach, watching baseball, enjoying the outdoors. The main people you wanna go after are the ones who pack Dyckman or Gersh to watch NY vs NY or go to pro-ams in Seattle or check out open runs.

Kenyon don’t seem completely on board with it.

Says it makes sense giving they’re retired NBA players, but says it’s changed from what it originally was. Age limit lowered to 25. Mentioned that they way they’ve gone about it doesn’t help. If you publicly talking shyt about me, why would I help?


If the age limit has changed then this is competition then :ohhh:
