Nobody talks about the fact that if the NBA is consumed as a highlight reel, shooting that many 3's reduces the highlights. There's less dunks and driving to the rim, which makes up most highlights.
And the foreigners also made the NBA more boring. Because of some of their playstyles mainly the stars like Jokic etc alot say he's boring. And this is Jokic league right now
The problem with the nba is that most of the best players only play half the time. Why watch a 76ers game when Embid isn't playing? Why watch any team if the player will all want to watch isn't playing.
The NBA will be least popular major sport in 5 years. It will be overtaken by the growing NHL and MLB is going to make a significant comeback once people begin to take notice of the changes. NFL will always reign supreme.
@@Sammy-f7l outside of the NFL, the NHL is the only growing sports league in the U.S. MLB will grow as people learn the new game. The NBA is losing nearly half of its viewers in the U.S. (which is all that matters) nearly yearly. All of my friends and I, who loved the NBA in the 90's, 00's, and early 2010's. We all hate it now. It's not fun to watch. There are no superstars. Meanwhile, the NHL ratings are going up. The fanbase is actively growing. The NBA will be as popular as MLS within the decade. Unless another LeBron shows up.
No defense, waaaay to many 3s, Load Management, and so many unlikable stars are some of the reason I stopped watching a long time ago. I call the NBA The National Buddy Association.
The NFL had produced some of the worst QB play this year, worst games, some of the worst teams, numerous rules changes, poor officiating, constant flags, and ratings are down hugely for major markets, yet all these commentators can do is constantly bash the NBA. The NBA had record attendance twice in a row, made 400 million for the ASG, and made a record 13 billion. The NBA is better than ever. These old dudes stuck in the past.
I live in Houston and I see people all the time with Astros and Texans gear on. I very very rarely see anyone wearing Rockets gear. We just don’t care 🤷♂️
NBA really hasn’t been watchable since the start of this decade probably before. It’s so watered down and lame I don’t even have the energy to pretend I give af about a bunch of grown men shooting a ball in a hoop for millions of dollars
The NBA product is garbage and I don’t know how they fix it. Why would I buy a ticket when it’s a crapshoot if my favorite player will even play and then there’s 50+ 3’s taken by a single team during that game. Not to mention players giving minimum effort during the regular season. Maybe make the 3 point shot worth only 2.5 points?
While Silver does bear done responsibility, the state of the NBA is an indictment on the players. Everything is just step back there's, little to no defense, and a lack of competitive drive in the players.
Install the fundamentals back in the sport. They've disappeared due to the 3 point shooting gallery every night. Also eliminate the political narrative... it's exhausting
Silver's job is to make the billionaire team owners happy, not the audience.
Kevin Durant is correct NBA needs to go back to history and tradition East vs West All Star Game…! Stop the Wokeness in sports

Divas killing the NBA

NBA is global it will always be big
MLB and especially NHL will never overtake the NBA.
The NBA need young superstars

No one cares about the NBA
Alot of people care. The NBA just need more young superstar
The NBA is global
@@Sammy-f7l Today's stars dont compare to yesterday's stars....not even close.
@Sammy-f7l
So is soccer…and yet
@@Sammy-f7leverything is global. Doesn’t make it a good product.

The team has to be good to get support. Plus basketball is the most fun sport, so once the young superstar grow it will be ok. .

I know, how to fix it.

Silver constantly tweaked rules to benefit offense so that stats could increase, it’s fully on silver
