The NBA has a ratings problem

google search of what?

This is just simple human behavior. Humans love to bitch and moan about things. People love to romanticize the past. There's nothing the NBA can do to make people not act like complete blowhards on these kinds of things. There will always be people like oneye who cant stand that young, predominately black, athletes have the power to make their lives miserable just because they don't do what they want them to do in sports.

At the end of the day this is all about perception and the NBA is largely to blame for creating the perception that the regular season is meaningless.

Lol. Some of you really live in fantasy worlds. No. Treating your customers and the people that make your business work well....is smart business. Treating 90% of your potential customers as if they don’t exist or aren’t worthy of your service....is exactly why you don’t reach those customers. It’s not that deep, despite how much you want to twist to make it. My life would be perfectly fine, exactly the same, and un-impacted if the state didn’t have an NBA team. It would save me money a few times a year lol. I live nowhere near SLC.

I will say this. This is my last season of league pass and after 6 years of having it I turned off auto-renew just a few weeks ago. The NBA is a league full of self-entitled babies who don’t appreciate their customers. Don’t be mad when you alienate 90% of markets by having that attitude. It’s not a disdain for the league. There just becomes little to no reason to pay attention to it. The thing is, the NBA has a much more fun and interesting product than the NFL....and the NFL is a dumpster fire terrible league...yet it will always outperform the NBA until the NBA learns the value of ALL it’s customers and potential customers.

Ratings were down last season and from that they have been down double digits on many nights this season. It won’t end up being that bad as the year goes on but they will end up down yet again.

Youre a cry baby.
 
Oneye, you literally obsess over Donovan's twitter feed and complain that he liked a picture of himself in a Mets uniform. You have a mental issue and the NBA cant do anything to appease you.
 
The irony is that oneye provides more ratings than I do.

I pay for an illegal service. LP sucks ***. That's where the NBA needs to respect it's customers.
 
The midseason tournament should have no impact whatsoever on the playoffs. It's perfectly fine for both to coexist.

The stakes for the tournament should be tons of money, the first pick of the 2nd round, stuff like that.

Teams like the Lakers or Clippers won't dwell on the tourney but teams like Atlanta and NY will go all in just to try to win something. It would be intriguing. Win or go home would be fun to watch.

It's because the NFL airs on Local channels and people are 'cutting the cord' on cable, where a vast majority of the the NBA's national broadcasts games are shown...

I follow him....do you have twitter? Things people you follow like show up in your feed. People you follow tend to also show up in your feed. You act as though I’m having to go through back channels to get this information lol.

If you have such a problem with NBA players, why follow them? Just watch the game.
