Have been banned from the other thread by an apparently sensitive snowflake (ironically after dozens of pages of political discussion from others) so I'll stick my thoughts on the NBA Playoffs here from now on. We needed a new thread anyway. [Reply]
There's a lot of apathy to the nba because the same guys and teams keep winning. Just like the NFL was with the Patriots. To the point where it's not even fun anymore to root against the powerhouse. I think the ratings will be just fine. Brooklyn and especially Philly fan carry ratings. Still lots of real exciting players left. [Reply]

I agree and the Nets are in the biggest market in the country and will draw tons of eyes since they are the favs to win it all. [Reply]

Yeah, there are some great exciting players left.
Luka, Mitchell, Booker, Yannick, Nets Big 3, Trae Young, Kawhi and PG, maybe Embid. I personally think watching Boston, NY and the Lakers play is boring for whatever reason. Curry being done hurts the ratings the most. [Reply]
