Love the content. I haven't watched ESPN in 10 year's, I can't stand any of their host, unwatchable!! Soap Opera, I thought the same thing. I'm canceling Nba League ass next season!! I'll only miss about 6 games with having TNT, NBC sports bay area, and doo ESPN. I already quit watching baseball and football. Referees are mainly ruining it, in my opinion. Thanks for speaking facts!!
It’s funny how TV analysts are quick to blame poor performance on taking too many 3s, yet they conveniently avoid addressing streaming issues-probably because they’re on the payroll of the same networks.
The 3's did make the play kind of bad. Watch some 90's games. Big contact was allowed, major plays for 2 points were a normal thing. Better play, better players, better sport.
“We think there is a fundamental misconception about piracy. Piracy is almost always a service problem and not a pricing problem. If a pirate offers a product anywhere in the world, 24 x 7, purchasable from the convenience of your personal computer, and the legal provider says the product is region-locked, will come to your country 3 months after the US release, and can only be purchased at a brick and mortar store, then the pirate’s service is more valuable.” - Gabe Newell
He literally created a massive money-printing monopoly that directly proves his point and they still just keep pushing this short sighted draconian bs because they're convinced thats the only way
NBA: I have an idea, lets make more money by making people jump through hoops and spend $$$ to watch a game! Fans: I guess I'm not watching. Analysts and Social Media: Too many 3's! It's Steph Curry's fault. Me: 🤦🏽♂
steve kerr normalizing using a spreadsheet instead of actually coaching ruined the game worse than curry ever did or will. the play on the court is not basketball its moneyball.
Same. I have League Pass and I can't watch the live games like I want. The NBA recognized that they messed up giving away rights, so for the 2012 CBA, they now own the rights to their own content. I think the NBA should do a new version of that. The NBA can't put those games on league pass because technically ESPN or TNT or whoever actually owns the right for that broadcast. It's stupid and should've been renegotiated.
Because live tv is the only thing people watch in the streaming age where they tolerate advertisrnents . Its a prime spot for huge advertisement slots ( mostly gambling and sports betting) and tv deals. Therefore more massive tv deals, therefore more salaries. Not a to do with viewership.
It's because they make so much money over seas now they can survive I'm sorry thrive from.the market they have In China alone now imagine the whole world americas not the only customer anymore
Gilbert Arenas explained this a while ago on Gil's Arena. It's true though. We're watching the games but it's spread out over a lot of channels. When the logos hit the jerseys I said Adam Silva is ruining the league. But comment on fans of teams vs fans of players is wrong. Fans have always followed the players over teams mostly. It's just that players used to stay on one team longer.
I was about to comment the same, i subscribed in France and every single game is available to watch, it seems even the games some channel in France got the rights for. Hopefully in the us the pass will be like that again...
You’re 100% correct about the greed and it definitely goes further than just the NBA. I’m glad you mentioned the Stock market/inflation/rent etc… Everyone is greedy asF. Socially/economically I think we’re headed down a bad path maybe I’m just being a doomer
Honestly as a fan of the nba that lives outside the US it feels worth it- we dont get any of the blackout restrictions and its genuinely crazy that people in the US have those restrictions like man why even charge all of you that much-
These are facts! NFL is suffering this year too because they copied the NBA "have your games on so many different streaming services that it costs thousands of dollars to watch every game" strategy.
it's fucking unreal that I have to spend $500 damn near $1k just to watch the NBA this year or any given damn year. Just because they restrict home games in my area to make more profit even when I paid for the pass. It literally makes no sense anymore to pay for the NBA Pass. I was giving it a shot this year and see how it would be like and now I'm never ever again paying for it after this entire season is over with.
I live in Cleveland. I bought league pass. I went on vacation in Las Vegas. I was somehow then unable to watch the lakers, Cavs, suns, and jazz. I canceled. I haven’t watched an nba game since.
It's bullshit right? I got ptsd from this, I used to do the full 30 team subscription, and I live in SC, and I couldn't get Hornets/Hawks/Magic/Grizzlies games. I'm like bruh they aren't even in my state. I cut that shit out and started using streaming sites like a real man. Shoutout to Crackstreams btw.
i do agree with you but the last part about regular Sezon is not too long at the end of the day it is still a sport and we are still supposed to have a metric by which to measure someone's greatness and I don't think you can do it in less than that you have ppg and apg and efficiency stats that make sense because of this 82 games
The NFL is just taking over all of the american sports market. And i love the NFL, but if you compare the NBA, College Football, even NASCAR and Wrestling to where they were at 10 or 20 years ago, their share of TV attention is just steady going down.
This is how wrestling is, too. They're on every streaming service and tv. My mom loves wrestling and bothers me about getting a new service to watch another wrestling match. We're also in an era people are afraid of FoMO to the point that they will get every version of one thing.
Thank you for making this video. I've been screaming this for the past few years. This is why I think the NBA is losing ratings. Not the only one but a major reason
EXACTLY! having to fight to watch a game damn just makes me uninterested in it. and the illegal streaming sites run like shit. they turn off right when the game gets good lol
Don't worry, you missed nothing. I have League pass and I've only watched 6 full games this season. It's boring. Players earn so much money, they don't care. They play hard one game and then chill the next two. After Jamal Murray said "we have lives outside basketball" after most of the team played like a highschool team, I opened my eyes. We feed them so much, they don't care. What needs to be done is reduce the max contracts and shorten the season so that individual games matter. I watch Eurolegue this season instead and just wait for the playoffs.
Great video dude I’ve already wasted money I just want to watch the okc thunder play and I will just continue to illegally stream it for free since there is no options to actually watch all the games. NBA is such a stupid business
I don’t think exposing the sites should be done by ppl Lebron already did it on live , it’s the sports industry in general , You can watch anything on streameast boxing 🥊, 🏀,football wrestling, UFC, tennis them sites are literally money savers but nba main ratings dropped because they want you to pay to watch a trash game getting cheated by refs & everybody tired of it so they finding sites or just looking at scores
Exactly. America loves throwing shade at NBA and NFL for various reasons but the number 1 reason for the drop in "viewership" is because we literally cant watch the games. Ya cant watch your own team. Even at the bars and this wasn't the case 10 years ago I used to watch every Pels game and would catch the rebroadcast at 2am. Then Bally's came along and i only saw 12 games in 4 years. Now that Ballys is gone, This is the first year in awhile where we can just turn on the tv and watch the games
TH-camTV isn't much better. After tax now it's like $90 a month. Pair that with Internet and it's almost more than the old cable/wifi package from 15 years ago
It's a conglomeration of everything. Too many 3s, too many "load management" days, too much money to watch mediocre regular season play, and more. It's just a bad product now. I'd rather watch the NFL or MLB. Much more entertaining and you get the best form your players every game.
I’m a Knicks fan and I live in New York and f**king optimum messed things up with MSG now I gotta find an Alternative solution and I’m not paying for a league @ss 🤦🏿♂️
You are spitting actual truth. It's true, the NBA has needlessly made watching its own games way too complicated and costly. All the NBA has to do is just copy NFL's RedZone, that's it
But they won’t copy because it’s the NBA and they have a long history of doing stuff that makes absolutely no since from a business point of view in relation to its customers.
Great video. New to the channel. You summed it all up perfectly! When you asked for people to like and subscribe, I happened to do so just before lmao. Good shit
I'm sorry you had a bad experience with league pass. Here's a tip to make it better. You can watch ESPN and TNT games on league pass, i just has to be 3 hours after the game ends. That might might be a deal breaker for some but I don't mind. Also you can technically watch your team as well. But that's 3 days after so it's basically useless but can do it.
Yo, I live in Freeport FL, 32439. I get blacked out from Miami Heat home NBA League Pass games 😂. To see a home game would take an 11 hour drive each way.
That's not a good idea. They've already explored all of that but it effected to many other things. They'd be paying players all that money but getting less back with lesser games for one. Records, wallets etc would be affected.
It’s funny because I’ve never cared about basketball less than I do. Ask of your point are correct but for me personally the 3 pointers is definitely a part of it. It’s not entertaining to see every team shooting 40+ 3’s per game. It’s not entertaining to see power forwards and centers regularly pulling up from 3. It used to be a special thing when I big man could hit that shot or if a player was a 3 point specialist. Now everyone is doing it and it’s not special and it makes the games boring to watch because everyone is doing it.
While I can agree that the issue that impacts you will drive some viewership down, I disagree with the premise that this is the driving factor for poor viewership. Let me give you a little backstory regarding my Fandom. I grew up in the 90's when the game was more about interior play and less about the 3 point shot. The game was exciting because it was VERY physical. Defense could be played along with hand checking being allowed. You can't do that any longer. Officials blow their whistle way too often in regards to fouls. They've taken steps to punish defense(defensive 3 seconds, the half circle under the basket denoting blocking foul or charge). Not one team is taking below 30 3 point attempts in a game this season. The Celtics alone are taking 49 attempts per game. Compare that to the 11/12 season where not one team took 30 3 point attempts in a game. The lleague average was less than 20. So if you're watching the two teams with the lowest attempts this season(Nuggets and Raptors), you're seeing 64 possessions combined where a 3 pointer is taken. That's not a fun and interesting product. Shaq and others are right, everybody is playing the same offensive brand of basketball and it gets stale. It might be the most efficient way to put up big offensive numbers, but the product is bad to watch for the average viewer.
Lakers, clippers and kings are all blacked out here in Hawaii and we don’t even have a sports team… they even black the lakers out on TNT because they want to force you to have spectrum. I’d give them my money if they would let me.
I paid for league pass last season... what a ripoff! First I have to use a VPN to watch my local team, but with or without using the VPN games were constantly buffering. By the end of the season, I had abandoned the NBA app in favor of piratec streams. Now HTF is a pirated stream going to be more reliable than using the app I paid for from a billion dollar company? On a side note, I love basketball, but I hope for the NBA's demise because of them shoving their politics in my face.
@XavIsOnline The End Racism crap was on the NFL fields, which is cringe, but not nearly as bad as putting Black Lives Matter on the court for every NBA game for the remainder of that season.
What if you did a video on how much it costs to watch every game for an entire season? I did some research and it looks like you need 4 services and almost $900 for just one season!
brother....what the hell was that song in the beginning ...? Was that the ASPCA theme? get it together man. Take pride in your video editing. Love the commentary though.
The ratings are down partly due to the elders in our nation not knowing how to operate a PC on basic (to us) usage No 75 plus elder is going to know how to use microsoft word much less know how to stream Theyll just get mad and end up watching re runs of M.A.S.H (You can tell ive been around the elderly ) 😅
Does YT have some kind of code or algorithm that knows when the streamer says subscribe? At the 4:30 point when he autisticly tries to get people to sub. The sub button lights up.
Its funny because you get blacked out games of your regional games typically the games you want to watch like if im in the west las vegas arizona or something i want to probably see the lakers are suns and those are blacked out. If I have league pass, I should get every single game no if ands or buts. Why would I be in detroit and cant see most eastcoast games?😃 then combine that with these guys sitting out every game then you have me illegally streaming and thats if I even feel like watching
Those games on TNT and ESPN are usually the best matchups too because well you know…..ratings 😂😂😂😂 fix your shit NBA and MLB too while we’re talking about it
Imagine viewership if it was streamed on TH-cam
We would see the real numbers fast
TH-cam TV is already a marketing partner of the NBA

The 3's did make the play kind of bad. Watch some 90's games. Big contact was allowed, major plays for 2 points were a normal thing. Better play, better players, better sport.
I do monthly payments. I pay one month then cancel, when I cancel they offer me a full month for free or 50% off. Rinse and Repeat every other month.
Oh. My. God. You are goated.
You can do this with several subscriptions.
I heard of someone that brought the monthly pass in a different country using a VPN for cheap.

Theyll just get mad and end up watching re runs of M.A.S.H
(You can tell ive been around the elderly ) 😅
You should just use a VPN
I just use Stream East 😂
Does YT have some kind of code or algorithm that knows when the streamer says subscribe? At the 4:30 point when he autisticly tries to get people to sub. The sub button lights up.
Its funny because you get blacked out games of your regional games typically the games you want to watch like if im in the west las vegas arizona or something i want to probably see the lakers are suns and those are blacked out. If I have league pass, I should get every single game no if ands or buts. Why would I be in detroit and cant see most eastcoast games?😃 then combine that with these guys sitting out every game then you have me illegally streaming and thats if I even feel like watching
League pass is good just cant watch every game live the website is shitty it cant stream nun the app is the only choice
I did 2 and U only get 1 game a day on average
Those games on TNT and ESPN are usually the best matchups too because well you know…..ratings 😂😂😂😂 fix your shit NBA and MLB too while we’re talking about it
TOO TRUE
Dont forget reffing
tbh its too much drama.
You’re not a liar. I haven’t neither liked nor subscribed. Arrgghh.
This is fair. I deserve this.
