The NBA was actually increasing its viewership into last year, contrary to what the writer says. But they were always a poor third to MLB and NFL, and now they have pretty well fouled their own nest. For a game that boils down to “dribble pass dribble shoot,” as my daughter once said, they have taken a gamble they cannot afford to lose. Not a fan anyway, but watching the debacle is more fun than watching a game.
Remember, mlb is blm backwards. :-)
You mean "receive a pass, take four or five steps, and then either dribble or slam-dunk" ...
The modern NBA allows more traveling than The Fuller Brush Company ...
What is this “dribble” of which you speak?
The game as played by the nba is people running with the ball and then trying to slam it into the basket to make the sports highlights or stopping at the 1/2 court line to shoot for the same reason.
The ball almost never hits the floor and these guys would pay their back child support before they would shoot a 10 foot jumper (which they would miss).
