Re: NFL draft topped NBA playoffs in TV ratings
no surprise there. I love the nba playoffs, but since they started best 4 of 7 in the 1st round, after an 82 game reg. season it makes it hard to get too excited about early 1st round games. Good example of why I don't want the nfl to expand its reg. season or the no. of playoff teams.

Re: NFL draft topped NBA playoffs in TV ratings
As much as Michael Jordan raised the NBA profile I think he also damaged it. Once people realized that the only teams that win championships are the ones with the once in a generation player surrounded by decent talent the interest started to wane. Parity in the NBA is horrible. NHL, MLB, and NFL all have a true anything can happen culture. The NBA, you're pretty safe guessing that someone named Kobe, Lebron, or Duncan is going to win the title.

The Godfather (Daniel Stern) is not pleased.

Then maybe Stern needs to do something about increasing the competitve level of his product. Just about every year you can pick who is going to be in the finals every June. I mean look at MSN's homepage headline for sports. Oh no!!!! Oklahoma City took a game from the Lakers, can the Lakers come back? Talk about boring!!!!!!! The NHL playoffs are way more exciting than this crap. |

Re: NFL draft topped NBA playoffs in TV ratings
they got less viewers cause the nba sucks, professional basketball is a terrible indiviual sport, it's fun to play but it is horrible to watch the nba on tv

I agree with you the 80's and 90's were great. The showdowns of The knicks and bulls or knicks and heat or pistons and bulls or hornets and heat...any of these games could get heated cause buckets were not just given away! |

The 3 big reasons I quit watching the NBA in the early 90's were first of all the Pistons went to crap, the Bulls won it all at will, and last but not least, the gangsta rap culture that totally took over the league. |
