Why is NBA Media so much worse than other Major Sports

[The Amerikkkan Idol]

Youre dumb because you think there’s something wrong with companies only speaking positively about their product….a business norm.

Dumb



All it took was for them to at the time be on a 12 game winning streak. GROUNDBREAKING CHALLENGE by Chuck there.




Another reason why youre not sharp.

Real flagship shows INFORM the public on who to watch.

Inside the NBA “wE wiLL lEt tHe pUBLic lEarN oN tHeiR oWn.”

Dumb.

Now, you're just a liar.

I never said the NBA shouldn't speak positively about their product, but the entire basketball media isn't just a mouthpiece for the league.

What's the point of media if it's just North Korean style propaganda?

Last time I checked, "Inside the NBA" is on TNT & "First Take" is on ESPN.

They don't owe them shyt.

"Inside the NBA" is an ENTERTAINMENT Show. It's about jokes with some basketball thrown in.

If it hurts you that much, don't watch, nikka

I genuinely hope the NBA pays you for how much you worry about EVERYTHING ELSE, except the game & it's players, which the public tells you regularly are the things turning them off

So you’re saying people skip the games and tune in at 1am just to watch inside the nba. What a fitting gif

A lot of people do.









You nerdy nikkaz aint outside

With your pristine logic, the most people watch the NFL, who’s media is encouraging about the product and watch the games, thus they’re doing it correctly

You think people watch The NFL because of Mina Kimes & Dan Orlovsky ???

 

[bl2k8]

To each their own but I don’t see how having the analysts on the biggest show the league platforms not watching games and spewing uneducated narratives is a net positive for the NBA

. Social media engagement. Outrage about Shaqs comments has 20-30 thousand likes on Twitter from what I see in the thread. NBA has been bragging about social media engagement for years now to make up for the viewership decline

Dumb nikka pulls up a post with 200 likes talking about “you ain't outside” lmao just complete brain rot No wonder he's caping for c00n ass Charles Barkley….low intellect nikkas stick together

 

[PatCake]

Shaquille O'Neil is only good is small segments.

Having his lazy ass weekly on a big show to analyze basketball is laughable.

Also, he might me 7'1 and 400 pounds, but he's the smallest man in that studio.

 

[JesusFOREVER]

Inside the NBA been washed for like 6 years and now it’s the reason the NBA has fallen off apparently? the NBA just has zero appeal to the average American anymore and that’s by design- can’t blame anyone but the league themselves

Im done. Dude is awful.

:

Who said entire? Now you believe the NFL runs a North Korean propaganda styled outfit.


We are talking about the flagship show being steered by an oaf who doesnt watch teams he criticizes and a degenerate gambler who is a c00n.

It's been longer than 6 since that show was good and I don't think anybody said they're the only reason it's a combination

NFL chased offense for casuals and killed the other side of the ball too. The difference is the NFL expects for the product to be talked about a certain way whether it's the Eagles or Jags, both are to be respected even though everybody knows Jags are never winning shyt. But nobody on ESPN or TNT if they had a license is doing a show/pod saying that. Won't happen. Detroit's one of the league's historic franchises and won before, even beat Shaq's ass to do it. And they look good now. Why can't they win again if they keep building, shyt's stupid

It's not just ITNBA, ESPN helps destroy the product everyday, not just twice a week or w.e. like TNT. Stephen A is going at the biggest face in the sport rn on podcasts and TV. Said he didn't plan on talking about it at all until his bosses told him to, that tells you all you need to know. ESPN cares more about Twitter shares and viewership spikes for FT than they do the integrity of the league/players. SAS/Dan Orlovsky aren't surviving trying to hoe Mahomes in public

So your suggestion is the NBA continues to use Inside the NBA not to promote the product, but for people to watch instead of the games, like an episode of Maury?

 

[GoldenGlove]

This simply doesn't happen in any other sport.

You would think guys that competed at the level that they did professionally would take pride in covering the game that gave them everything.

They legit been winging it for like 10-15 years at this point

 

[duckbutta]

I guess I just disagree with y'all about the point of media is.

You nikkaz want the NBA media to be North Korea style propaganda, which defeats the purpose, in my opinion.

People like "Inside The NBA" because they know that it's real opinions from real people who played the game at the highest level

You and Rebel think that the NBA media's job is to just glaze the product and be a propaganda style outfit.

If "Inside The NBA" was that, nobody would watch it.

The media should HOLD PEOPLE ACCOUNTABLE, not enable bullshyt & tell people it's gravy.

That's political media, entertainment media, and news media.

But, I guess this is why folks love Fox News & MSNBC because they'd just rather have media glaze their favorite team, rather than be objective

Well this can't be true cause you got shyt like shaq not even knowing who the coach of the Pistons is, then when called out on it saying he "don't watch them anyway".

So how can you have a real opinion about basketball when you caught on camera not even knowing the personnel of the team and your only response is "i don't watch them"

They watch so little actual basketball on onside the nba that they literally have a segment called "who he play for" cause you know, they don't actually know because they don't watch any of the games.

That's really the problem with the nba media and it's fans right now. They don't watch the games, they don't know who the players are, they don't know which coach coaches for what team, but they got people like you describing their product as "real opinions from real people who played the game at the highest level"

I don't understand how any black person watches inside the nba. It's a minstrel show. 3 tap dancing c00ns with two of them unable to say any word with more than 3 syllables and a white guy in the middle chuckling the whole time.

Big facts.

And you right, it’s with some fans and some media

They don’t wanna watch games but want to talk about the NBA. It’s the most bizarre shyt.

People deadass follow the NBA through whatever clips come through their social media timelines. Which is cool, not everyone has to be a diehard. Problem arises when they want to jump in discourse like they have an expert opinion.

And especially if you’re a paid analyst…watching games is the literal bare minimum.

See again- it’s always an excuse when the NBA is involved/ from the players to the fans to the media/ people just can’t accept that the NBA has not been putting out a quality product and the NFL has- that’s the difference- WNBA WCBB started putting out a good product ratings went up- MLB improved their product ratings went up- CFB is still a giant- all those products have moronic talking heads and garbage takes- we just witnessed that terrible MVP war between Lamar Jackson and Josh Allen for 15 weeks straight and endless Mahomes-Brady debates and interest in football didn’t drop one bit-

The NBA chose this route- they wanted the global viewership and social media traction over the American interest so they scaled the game back to be more digestible and open towards those markets- this is the result- it’s not the end of the world- because no one even watches these shows or tunes into the NBA to care about these takes really/ the same marginalized social media audience are the same ones giving Screamin’ A and Inside the NBA their viewership- so the NBA fans are simply pointing the gun at themselves and accusing random bystanders of aggravated assault

There's been criticism about the NFL's play, saying its leaned towards too much offense, Brady has talked about how player development has fallen off as well, blaming the coaching. The difference is that he, Howie Long, Nate Burrelson aren't on our TVs every Sunday talking about how they don't watch the games and how everything is shytty.

Imagine Michael Strahan shytting on the Commanders talking about they're a losing team, being told that they're actually playing well, then Strahan saying it doesn't matter because they're not going to win anything. The NFL and its media hyped the hell out of the team and praised Jayden.

shyt, 10 years ago you had Chuck shytting on the Warriors.

 

[The Amerikkkan Idol]

So your suggestion is the NBA continues to use Inside the NBA not to promote the product, but for people to watch instead of the games, like an episode of Maury?

The league uses "Inside The NBA" because the only reason a lot of people tune into TNT when a game is on, is to see Charles, Shaq, & Kenny

You think they're paying Charles $21 million & Shaq $15 for no reason???

The only guy making more is Brady & he got that BEFORE he ever stepped foot in the booth just based off of his star power.

Shaq & Chuck get paid what they do because they are POPULAR with the fans, unlike 99% of the players.

Well this can't be true cause you got shyt like shaq not even knowing who the coach of the Pistons is, then when called out on it saying he "don't watch them anyway".

You don't have to know what you're talking about to have an opinion.

nikka, this is The Coli, you should know that.

I just told them this.

These nikkaz are just groupies for the NBA, on some "The NBA cannot fail, it can only be failed" type shyt.

The product sucks.

The fans say it sucks, the players say it sucks, and the legends say it sucks.

But these dummies wanna cry about an ENTERTAINMENT PROGRAM & Stephen A.
