I hope NBA stayed on with ESPN because they were the highest bidder and not because they felt like they have to be on ESPN.

This is disgusting ESPN coverage is absolutely the worst in sports, and we are losing absolutely the best.

A million dollars a game essentially because of this new TV rights with the new Supermax deals.

Shai is first to probably get the deal

TNT cannot match the deal because they cannot guarantee the number of ad impressions as Warner does not own a broadcast network. If they want to keep the NBA, they’re gonna have to go to Disney (ABC) or Fox for a joint bid.

Something to watch for the next time the NHL goes through this, which is in 4 years.

They will go to court, and TNT will get their doors blown off.
