I do too. They are so much skilled then the shyt that I saw on the 90s.
Why is NBA Media so much worse than other Major Sports

Meanwhile in the NFL, the Lions are the favorites to win the Super Bowl and no one gives a shyt that they don’t play in NYC or LA
Blake Griffin wants to move NBA analysis away from 'just talking s***' in Amazon role
Blake Griffin sees "the biggest disconnect maybe ever" between NBA fans and players, and wants to be part of bridging that gap at Amazon.

“That’s what I love about watching football, watching Tony Romo, Tom Brady, Peyton Manning, you’re really getting insight into how hard it is and what these guys are thinking and all the decisions they have to make,” Griffin said. “I think that’s what’s missing from basketball a little bit.”
While Griffin tipped his hat to Inside the NBA, he appeared to join the chorus of voices who are frustrated by the show’s tone.
“The TNT show with Shaq, Chuck, those guys, it’s probably one of the best sports shows of all time. To me, they’re just talking s***, there’s not a lot of analysis,” Griffin said. “It’s great, I love it, but what I’m excited to do is, I’m pretty fresh out. The game changes, there’s always a new wrinkle that comes into the game every single year … bringing analysis that’s current is what I’m excited about.”

I don’t think it’s worse than other media. Whenever the TNT crew stops clowning and actually talk about teams they provide a lot more input than most shows. The main difference is the TNT crew is willing to critique the sport honestly. A lot of shows spend more time talking to wining fans or kissing teams but and that gets mistaken for analysis.
JJ Reddikk saying HOF players were just plumbers when he was at best an above average role player on some good playoff teams is way more offensive than the TNT crew clowning current players.

Name the other flagship show for the league on that.

Thats not critiquing the sport. That is invalidating the sport

Fans don't care about insight or analysis and breakdowns in either sport. The narratives,conflicts and game of football itself has just become more exciting and superior.
NBA obviously has a harder road due to how long the season is and the fact it competes with NFL for the first half of the season. But NBA at one time had the star vs star marquee matchups that the NFL had. That's over now due to lack of defense where alot of people can look like stars any given night. Plus Superteams and players forcing trades have hurt it.
The "star vs star" marquee matchups happen in the NFL now with QB rivalries.
Best thing NBA could do is move it's season to the summer so that NFL isn't stomping out the first half of its season. Y'all don't have the stars anymore to make us pay attention over the NFL. But I'm guessing players would protest so they can spend summers in Italy rather than play ball
NBA last chance is the Great White hope Cooper Flag honestly. Id love to see the league give him the Caitlyn treatment but on steroids. Just might spark the players like it did in the wnba. The white announcers are already salivating,but if I'm in Adam Silver I'm telling them to turn it up a notch to show blaytant bias
Got a feeling he wont do shyt though in the NBA,so they will probably half to help him cheat

Thats bullshyt. Former HOFamers are not just “anybody” and tearing down your league as an entity week after week only adds to the negative culture that has been developed by a league that already had shytty marketing being playercentric as it is.
You have yet to name another flagship show which bashes the product they represent.
People wanting to be entertained is not unique to any sport, and the NFL & MLB product has NOT been any better than the NBA. Point is, NFL flagship shows arent concerned about what a player had to say in response to Asante Samuel’s comments on a podcast. Meanwhile, the lead to an NBA show is Jayson Tatum’s response to Brandon Jennings comments on a podcast.
The entire way the NBA is covered is toxic and shytty as fukk and you having the nerve to spend time in here and attempt to say NFL media covers the game in the same way was plain garbage.
There is no talking around Charles Barkley’s c00n ass telling his viewers to NOT watch the playoffs. There is no talking around Charles Barkley being on some fake ass populism constantly bringing up players salaries to that of steel workers. He is a primary contributor to the toxic nature of how the game is perceived.
No one can tell me that NFL product is any better than the NBA because it outright isnt.
So, essentially, you think the HOFs should just get on TV & lie about what they see because nikkaz like you are too sensitive to hear the truth about what everybody's thinking.
Like I said 10x before, if the public is entertained, they don't care what anybody thinks.
You're talking about "flagship shows" as if the average fan gives a fukk about any of that.
The average NFL, MLB, NBA fan is watching people on Twitter, Instagram, YouTube, & Facebook who talk shyt about sports all day.
Traditional media is dying.
The reason why "Inside the NBA" is higher regarded than all those other lame ass "flagship shows" is because they are HONEST & not just kissing the leagues ass like other "flagship shows" that you keep harping.
And I'm pretty sure The Super Bowl is the highest rated program in American TV yearly, so yeah, I'm confident in saying that the NFL puts on a better show than the NBA & anything else, too.
The average person would rather watch Patrick Mahomes, Lamar Jackson, Josh Allen, & Aaron Rodgers than anybody in the NBA
Caitlin Clark & Angel Reese are more famous than anybody in their age range in the NBA. The WNBA has more buzz than the NBA
And that's not because of Charles & Shaq
That's just not true.
When people know what they're doing, they give them props, when people don't, they call them out.
That's why the fans respect them.
That's why there was outrage when TNT was going to cancel the show.
Y'all act like they hate everything & everybody, which is just patently false.
Y'all are mad that y'all can't control the narrative about this league full of foreigners, flopping, load-managing, & shooting 100 3s a game, whether they make or miss.
That's just not going to happen.
And don't even get me started on what this generation has done to the All-Star Weekend, which used to be the most fun weekend in sports until these dudes decided 1st, that the dunk contest wasn't important, then that the All-Star Game itself wasn't important.

Sensitive? Niqqa….Im talking business. I wrote some of these points in marketing class, the fukk are you talking about sensitivity?So, essentially, you think the HOFs should just get on TV & lie about what they see because nikkaz like you are too sensitive to hear the truth about what everybody's thinking.
Who adds their company name to a show only for its ambassadors to tear it down?
Just a God awful take
You ran off a laundry list of NBA problems as if one couldn’t do the same for the NFL or MLB. This weekend saw one entertaining NFL playoff game. The product is just as wack as the NBA, the difference being is that the NFL is much more teamcentric than the NBA that is playercentric, so there’s an inherent advantage there. Second, NFL players close ranks around the game being questioned
And thats the job of flagship shows.
The job of a flagship show for a sports league is to serve as the primary program that represents and PROMOTES the league, its players, and its events to a wide audience. It acts as the face of the league's media efforts and helps shape the league’s brand and visibility. (Sports Business definition).
Brand Promotion: The flagship show helps define and promote the league's identity, values, and image, reinforcing the league's narrative to fans, sponsors, and media.
Highlighting Key Events: It features major events, games, and matchups, providing previews, recaps, and analysis. This includes key moments like playoffs, championship games, and important storylines in the season.
Player & Team Exposure: The show offers in-depth features on star players, teams, and coaches, helping to build narratives around personalities and performances that engage viewers.
Fan Engagement: It connects directly with fans, fostering a sense of community and excitement around the league. This could involve fan interactions, social media integration, and engaging content like behind-the-scenes looks or interviews.
Broadcasting Authority: As the flagship show, it establishes the league’s authority on the latest news, stats, and developments, offering a reliable, trusted source for fans to keep up to date.
Partnerships & Sponsorships: The show also plays a key role in attracting and maintaining sponsorship deals, advertisers, and media partnerships, as it typically reaches the largest audience and provides significant exposure.
Highlighting League Initiatives: It can spotlight league-wide initiatives, such as charity work, diversity efforts, or community engagement projects, to promote the league's broader values.
Inside the NBA does none of that.
The NFL continues to have success in traditional media, so whats your point?
And that honesty is whats hurting the NBA. Tell me the benefit to the NBA when Barkley tells players not to watch the playoffs. Ir getting fans jealous of NBA player salaries comparing them to steel workers while saying zero about the $20 billion net worth owners who are the ruin of this country? Inside the NBA success does NOT benefit the NBA .
They dont.And I'm pretty sure The Super Bowl is the highest rated program in American TV yearly, so yeah, I'm confident in saying that the NFL puts on a better show than the NBA & anything else, too.
Of course they do. Because the NBA tears down its great players because of shytty ring, culture debates, and all this other negativity. You keep on bringing up outcomes but not the causes of it.
Caitlin Clark & Angel Reese are more famous than anybody in their age range in the NBA. The WNBA has more buzz than the NBA
And that's not because of Charles & Shaq
And there in lies the problem of how basketball’s marketed as I said earlier. when you are playercentric league, you are at a disadvantage because when those players retire or get hurt, no one cares. Some of the NBAs problems stretch back to the 90s and has nothing to do with Shaq and Charles
Either way, Im the one having a sports business talk and youre the one playing fanboy to two c00ns who are jealous of today’s players and tearing down the league in the process
