[tremonthustler1]

Facts
All the historic MJ, Kobe, Shaq, Bron, Dream etc games they can be playing

TV shows showing the impact of basketball all over the world..I visited the Philippines once & there were basketball goals EVERY WHERE. shyt was beautiful

Pick up games between old players & celebs

A review of each team’s previous season like how the NFL does with the yearbook thing they do every summer

Could be one of the goat channels

If AT&T is talking about scaling back for THAT channel, you’re gonna get so much basic shyt.

They don’t value a channel they low key know you don’t watch.

none of these cac podcast media have any tv presence
bill simmons, zach lowe, nate duncan, these starters guys
watching them talk is dry as fukk , boring ass nerd personalities
I don't see how any of these analytics type guys could carry a show

[Wacky D]

good riddance.

hopefully they ship them out immediately so that they don't air their awful summer league show.

all I want is the highlights of the vegas games and instead they give us mostly a bunch of dry drivel that has nothing to do with ball.

From WAPO article

“One source with knowledge of the negotiations believed the move is part of a larger cost-cutting directive from AT&T, which completed its purchase of Time Warner last year. Earlier this year, longtime head of Turner Sports David Levy left the company. CNN president Jeff Zucker was named head of news and sports for WarnerMedia. NBA TV is owned by the league and operated by Turner.

A Turner source said the decision was made by Turner and NBA executives without the input of AT&T higher ups.

The show averaged 38,000 viewers this year, according to Nielsen data.”

38k viewers?

This shyt should’ve BEEN off tye air

I never watched it but a lot of ppl did, not sure why NBATV would cancel one of their popular shows

Probably cuz those dudes are corny as fukk. On top of that, I don't wanna hear Canadians talk about NBA basketball. Call me biased

Im Canadian but this show was cringeworthy. I found it difficult to watch. I used to read the Skeets Yahoo blog occassionaly back in the day though. IDK why everything has to transition to audio/video from nowadays.
