I know ESPN still exists but hopefully moving networks begins a shift in NBA media coverage.
It'll be nice to hear actual basketball being discussed and analyzed instead of hot takes and narrative driven story lines and agendas.

TNT/ESPN doesn't own the highlights, they license them from the NBA.
Yea NBA is gonna eat next season with a game after the Derby on NBC. Highest rated non-SCF games in the Stanley Cup Playoffs in the NBC era were always consistently those Derby lead-out games.
Almost 22 million people watched the Kentucky Derby?

Hopefully this starts a network tv resurgence. People have been saying cut the cord for years. Why not try it back on network and see what happens. We need ABC and NBC to compete with sports coverage like back in the day. NFL does it all the time, give the nba a chance!
